I am having a very strange issue. When I go to start a new game, all of the species shipsets are black. If I try to edit them and go to the ship appearance page and highlight one, what appears to be an unfolded black box is revealed. All of the shipsets appear this way. Trying to start a new game results in a crash about midway through the galaxy generation loading screen.
Below is a zip file containing the crash log files.

I have tried removing the mods I have messed with since the last time I played as well as any mods which seem like they may cause this issue (I am working on making a mod that alters how hyperdrives work, so I thought it might be the cause, but I have removed that mod and this still happens).

I'm not sure if anyone checks this section often (very few threads here seem to have any replies).
I have had Steam verify the game files in case a wrong file got poked the wrong way. No change.

I think I have resolved the issue. It seems to have been caused by a conflict due to load order.
On Stellaris Modding Den Discord server, someone released an executable command script which automatically sorts mods into a working load order, which fixed the issue for me.
