One line summary of your issue
3.3.5.1 (SOHY) - Ubuntu 21.04 - Steam (Native) - Can only launch by deleting "logs" folder

Game Version
3.3.5.1 (SOHY)

What expansions do you have installed?


Do you have mods enabled?
No

Please explain your issue is in as much detail as possible.
I cannot launch the game unless I delete the "logs" subfolder under "~/.paradoxinteractive/Crusader Kings II/". Everything else, mods, saved games, settings, etc. are fine and seem to be stored between each session correctly. However, the game will not launch if the "logs" subfolder exists.

Each time I launch the game, the "logs" folder is naturally generated automatically by the game, and I need to manually delete this folder before I can launch the game again next time I want to play.

There is no error message, and no error log (as far as I can tell).

I have launched the game with and without DLC and with and without mods. The only thing that seems to matter is whether the "logs" subfolder has been deleted.

Obviously while this is not a deal breaker, it is annoying (and potentially signs of other issues). As such, I am reporting this and hopefully Paradox team can help investigate.

Steps to reproduce the issue.
Install Ubuntu 21.04.
Install drivers (NVidia).
Install Steam (native from Ubuntu repository).
Install CK II.
Launch game. First launch of CK II is successful.
Exit CK II (doesn't matter what happens in game).
Attempt to launch CK II by pressing "Play" button in Steam.
Computer "thinks" for a few seconds and game does not launch.
Navigating to "~/.paradoxinteractive/Crusader Kings II" and deleting "logs" subfolder will allow CK II to be launched. The "logs" subfolder is generated upon each launch and needs to be manually deleted.
