Constant crashing with 2.45?

[Vo1D]

Hey, just downloaded this mod and am loving it so far. However, I'm having trouble playing more than ~20/30 minute sessions without the mod simply freezing and then crashing. I don't have any other mods enabled but I do have all the latest expansions and am playing on version 2.45. Is the mod compatible with this version or am I out of luck?

Make sure you have a clean install of LI. Also, try using minimum resolution. The mod is compatible with 2.4.5, but it seems to be a matter of luck or system setup whether you can play normally or it crashes often.

Reinstalled, used the lowest possible resolution, still crashes after ~30 minutes. I'm running 64 bit Windows 7 and some of the most modern hardware. Any tips?

Zooming in as much as you can and not closing and opening menus too fast. I can run it on speed 5, Alt tab, leave it on. do everything and it wont crash

Idem. Good solution

Is there a reason why the mod crashes if you aren't zoomed in? I keep forgetting to zoom back in when I unpause and I am really not used to literally sticking the camera as close to the ground as possible. It's the only mod I've ever played on any paradox games where I can't zoom out as much as I want. It's a great mod but I can never really get into a game because Ill crash as soon as I forget to be careful.

I'm pretty sure it's the memory used (bigger map, more provinces, more characters because more provinces)

So the engine is at fault then? Too weak for the full glory of Shaytana?

Playing in borderless window mode fixed it for me.

You mean you can zoom out as much as you want with borderless window mode?

Zooming right in has fixed my issues, you can zoom out when paused to check on things but zoom back in when unpausing or crashes start to occur within minutes

I noticed that...such a shame. I cannot witness the full glory of Lux Invicta in action without the game collapsing on itself.

Haven't had any issues so far.

How do you get borderless window mode?

In the settings.txt file, put borderless = yes.
