One line summary of your issue
CK II - [3.1 - KKAD] Stuck on a neverending loading screen

Game Version
3.1 - KKAD on Steam

What expansions do you have installed?
All of the above

Do you have mods enabled?
No

Please explain your issue is in as much detail as possible.
I tried playing as the featured ruler yesterday and experienced no problems while playing the game until I tried to start it up again today.
I am stuck on an endless version of the first loading screen (the one with the big logo).
I've tried restarting my computer, validiting the game files, deinstalling and reinstalling the game and deliting the bronzeman saves (in that order) but nothing seems to help.

Edit:
It's stuck on Loading Graphics... now, so I suppose that's some progress at least.

Steps to reproduce the issue.
Play as the featured ruler and close and reopen the game. (Probably, I'm not in a position toverify that)

Could you upload your log and cache folders? And then check if deleting the cache folder, disabling your antivirus, or starting the game with steam offline solves the issue?

How do I upload folders?

Update:
I deleted the cache and it seems to be fixed now.

Glad to hear that it's working now. You can upload a folder by making it into a .zip, .rar, or .7zip file and then upload it with your comment. Google "create zip file" or something similar and find out how to do that on your platform.

If you or anyone else still have a copy of a cache-folder that prevents startup and could upload it, it would help me find what the cause of the issue is and create a bugfix that prevents this from happening again to you or other players.

Here you go.
I can confirm that my problem is reproducible now due to me having to delete my cache folder whenever I start the game.
(The attached folder is the original cache which I only moved instead of deleting it)

i also have this problem.. deleting the flag folder in document/gfx works but it gets reproduced when restarting the game. even so the game itself constantly crashes.
