I just had another game have the same issue. I got further into the game, but this totally ruined the run.

I had the same issue but got slightly further (953) on an Abyssinia ironman run. I've seen a handful of similar reports being reported in the past couple days. I have a thread open as well titled "In game crash started with Bastion(1.7.0)/Friends & Foes".I'd love to get back to it, hopefully, we'll get a fix at some point.

Did you start these games on 1.7, or were they from older saves?

Did you start these games on 1.7, or were they from older saves?

I'm having this same issue as of the night of 9/12 on all save files of mine. All of which were started after the 1.7 update, and even on new ones since 9/12. Pretty much around 5-6 years into all playthroughs, modded and unmodded, I have a crash on a specific date, and no matter what I do, it keeps happening every time. I tried to full uninstall all mods and the game, then reinstall the game completely without any mods, and the issue started again a few years into yet another new playthrough. This is completely unplayable and very frustrating, as I have put many hours during a busy week where I'm just trying to play a freaking game and relax into trying to figure this out and nothing is working.

Also, playing on Windows through steam.

Yep! Updated to 1.7, downloaded F&F and started the game

One more update on this save: the game crashes identically on the same date (December 8) when *disconnected* from the external GPU, running on the native internal Intel graphics chipset.

 

[Andarak]

Happens to me also - all games inevitably start to crash on random date after several in-game years.

I am playing on Windows 7 via Steam.

Would be nice if we got some confirmation that the issue is being looked at.

hello! I believe I am having the same issue. however I do not think it has to do with a specific date as it is happening at both 867 and 1066 bookmarks. here are my specs:


Model Name: MacBook Pro
Model Identifier: MacBookPro18,2
Chip: Apple M1 Max
Total Number of Cores: 10 (8 performance and 2 efficiency)

unfortunately i cannot include the game save because it's in steam cloud but i could easily replicate with a new save if needed since this has happened consistently across 4 game starts since last night.

dlc: GotHRE, FotAC, tNL, tRC, tFoI, FaF

In my experience the dates vary between started games, but within those games the crash always happen on specific date (English is not my first language, so here's an example: if I start the game as character A the crash will certainly happen on date B, whereas if I start the game as character Y the crash will certainly happen on date Z).

I would like to emphasize that the abovementioned crashes won't let me progress further, which effectively means that patch 1.7.0 turned my copy of CK III, for which I paid full price on release, into a demo.

YES AND i would put my pain rating at a 9 or 10 because the new game of thrones series is making me itch to play CK3 and I can barely get an hour into any given game now. really really sucks
