I get this every time I open up a save from an older version of the mod I'm working on. I'm trying to figure out what the heck the problem is so that I can go back and fix it and get the file to actually work.

It looks like the problem is with the language files, but they're such a horrible mess that it would take ages to go through them, and I'm hoping that's not the issue here.

Any help that can be offered would be greatly, greatly, greatly appreciated.

This happened to me.  Sadly, yes, it is a language files issue.

Somewhere, one of your language files is incomplete or labeled wrong.  The only simple workaround would be to assign all your speaking races to use the same language file, one that you know is complete, and replace any other language files with versions that are 100% sure to be complete as you have time to do so.  Otherwise, you have to go through each language file looking for missing entries or mistyped tags.

I see. Thank you very much.

To have confirmation is on one hand a relief due to the certainty it brings, but on the other hand it leaves an empty feeling of dread inside.

I now begin the slow, torturous process of scanning my language files. The problem is I need to know the exact difference between language files in order to regenerate an exact world - unless language files do not have an effect on world generation.

It should be telling you the title of the entry that's missing.  If you use ctrl+f to search the language files and that doesn't come up, just add it back in.

Unfortunately, the message that comes up is exactly what it says in the title, no more, no less. The truly bizarre thing is that I can get the region file to work in another version of the mod.
