Looking for help please! My savegame crashes on a certain date no matter what I do. Why might that be?
Things I have done to try to prevent this:
* disable all dice-rolls I know are going to be made on that date, like the Sway scheme I had running, and cancelling other changes like buildings I'm building
* manually trigger big world-affecting events like the Mongol Invasion to see if it was the Random Mongol Trigger or similar that was faulty (seemed plausible with the recent changes to the Mongols)
* go into Observer Mode to see if the AI's different processes for my ruler might skip the problem
* go back to older saves to make sure I'm coming at the problem from before any random dice-rolls which manifest on 3rd September 1188
* disabled all mods, obviously - though I was always conservative with mods, using only well-supported or very very light-touch mods (like the one for dismissing all your messages by pressing F)

I have been running this save since 867, publishing 400-1600 words per day with annotated screenshots once per day for my friends. It's a hobby. It's a discipline exercise. It's a storytelling game, and I've been telling a story that's breached 300,000 words in its scope.
I knew this day would come - the game nearly broke with RtP, and I had to turn the Byzantine Empire off and on again - but the longer I can stave it off, the better!
I cry out to all the modders, all the turbo-nerds like me, all the minmaxers who know the system inside out, all the hardcore roleplayers picking The Worst Option, and yes, I cry out to PDX-Trinexx and all who sail in her, I need ideas for what to try next!
