I'm so glad that I found this thread, I also had the same issue as OP (menu appeared but nothing happened when I clicked on it)


 




I followed everything you wrote but I still can't get it to work for some reason, do you have any ideas?


 




What I've done:


 




Install: mod  = cnt_empire_bay.rar




Install: update patch = cnt_empire_bay_1.3.1


 




After that I made a duplicate of the two 'ru' folders as mentioned above and renamed the clone as the english version:




dlc_datarussian  to: dlc_dataenglish




cnt_empire_baysds_ru to: cnt_empire_baysds_en


 




(Didn't work for me at this point compared to OP)


 




I have also overwritten the Empire_Bay.zip files to the "sds_language" gui folder/s (Thanks for the upload btw!)




I have no other mods installed, so there shouldn't be any issues regarding the compatibility.


 




P.S: I removed "cnt_joes_adventures" from the dlc folder as well before attempting to start the mod.


 


 




I ran out of ideas, so in case any of you have another idea, I really appreciate it!
