I just installed the game on Steam, and when I try to launch it, I see the Paradox Development Studio banner with the blue stained glass before it crashes to the desktop. According to the error.txt file, it is saying:
[persistent.cpp:40]: Error: "Unexpected token: lightTypes, near line: 1
" in file: "interface/citylights.gfx" near line: 37
