Hey there, Potato here.
Could you and your friend please do a full reinstall of the game, meaning uninstalling the game, and deleting the CK3 folder that you can find in "C:\Users\[USERNAME]\Documents\Paradox Interactive\" (in case you have any save files you want to keep, you can just rename the Crusader Kings III folder to something else), reinstall the game and then try once again without any mods enabled on a completely new save game. In case that doesn't alleviate the problem, please reach out again!

Hello , so we just did all that you said (Deleted from documents Crusader kings folder, and uninstalled game from steam and re downloaded) and again after 7min -+ game still crashed for my friend , and i also unsubscribed from all mods that we had me and him. i can send you our new save that crashed for him

Please do, additionally, I will also need the Crash logs from your friend. They can be found in "C:\Users\[USERNAME]\Documents\Paradox Interactive\Crusader Kings III\crashes". Make a Zip out of the latest crash that you had and send it here together with the save.
Could you also give me the following information:
* What platforms are you and your friend playing on?
* What DLCs do you have active?
* Could you give me a detailed explanation of what exactly you and your friend were doing just as it crashed. Anything from just hovering over a county to clicking a corner of the screen.

I cant give you his crash logs because its empty and his game crashes with out crash log to send or to save it.
(1.What platforms are you and your friend playing on?
We both have Windows 11 systems)
(2.What DLCs do you have active?
So i have all the dlcs and he has the base game we playing on all 3 chapters (1,2,3)
(3.Could you give me a detailed explanation of what exactly you and your friend were doing just as it crashed. Anything from just hovering over a county to clicking a corner of the screen.
It happens randomly ,we haven't noticed any particular reason why it crashes but we found out it happens between 5-8min after booting and joining game (He has over wolf app that records your game play) and we saw that each of playtime's game crashes in 5-8min

any fixes or news , what can i do to play together ?

What you could do is get your friend to zip up the "logs" folder that is found in "C:\Users\[USERNAME]\Documents\Paradox Interactive\Crusader Kings III\" from directly after a crash and then send it here, as well as getting them to run the DXDiag program, pressing the "Save All Information" button and then attaching that file (should be named DXDiag)
Can your friend play in Singleplayer without these issues, or do they crash after 8 minutes there as well?

Here is his logs from ck 3 and Dxdiag info.
His single player also crashes

 

[pifachuu]

We tried to download newest video card driver but that didn't help and after 3-4 more crashes the crash log is also empty

Okey he disabled antivirus and we brute forced multiple crashes (we just played and saved and continued the save) and after 2 game years it stooped crashing , we still dont know why in the first place it did that
