I just tried a fresh install of the "new format" again on my end, and I can't confirm what you are experiencing. And I'm not sure how that validator result can come to being. But first of all, always remember to use 7-zip when extracting these downloads.

Next, re-extract the "codex.cfg" from your Global Patch [1.61.15.1020]. It's located under Game => Bin. You extract the file into the corresponding location on your TS4 installation, so again under Game => Bin. Replace the existing file when prompted.

Now, re-extract the entire "GP07"-folder from your "GP07 - Strangerville.7z" download. Place again inside your TS4 installation, replace existing files when prompted, and try the game again. If you still get the same error, and if you still have the torrents running under seeding in your torrent client, then do a "Force Re-Check" on both the Global Patch and the DLC-folder. Or re-use the direct downloads.

Once you did that, please repeat the procedures with re-extracting that I mentioned before.

It's good that the fix in your case was easy to do. Otherwise I would have uploaded myself those 2 files, for you to download.

Have fun with the game and feel free to get back in touch with us again, anytime! Solved and closed.

danger! beware!!
