Could you please try to delete the ...Documents/Paradox Interactive/Europa Universalis IV/gfx folder and start the game? (the game needs to be off when you do this ofc)

I guess this could be an issue for many of you:

Code:

	size=
	{
		x=1024
		y=768
	}

	min_gui=
	{
		x=1280
		y=720
	}

See the problem? Your resolution is lower than the minimum resolution for the game.
I don't have any programmer to ask right now, but try to change the setting for the minimum resolution to the same as the one you have, and see if you can start the game. If it works, it won't be pretty though. There is a reason for why we have that min number.

This!

Also:

Every single dxdiag log I've been seeing in here has old drivers. I'm pretty sure all of you have newer drivers to get

I would also suggest making sure that the resolution and refresh rate in your "settings.txt" file matches the recommended one for your graphics card. You should be able to see this by right clicking your windows desktop and look at the settings there.

To play offline, just exit steam and start the game through "EU4.exe" found in "Program Files\Steam\SteamApps\common\Europa Universalis IV\"-folder

When i try to start the game i get a black screen and then it crashes.
The fix that was linked to at the start of this thread DOES NOT WORK, my video drivers are up to date (has that really ever fixed anything?), I checked settings and my refresh rate is 60, matching with my monitor.
Can tec support please give us a working fix or release a game that works on day 1 for a change?

Also, the demo worked fine

Try to reinstall the game and remove your settings.txt. If that does not work post a new thread describing your problem and attach your error.log and system.log.

Also a loading graphics crash, changing Steam to offline didn't worked - may be a problem of the drivers? Deleting the gfx folder also didn't worked.

"Driver Date/Size: 5/27/2010 19:02:46, 511488 bytes" = Very old drivers! You really need to update them.

You can also edit ...\Documents\Paradox Interactive\Europa Universalis IV\settings.txt and make sure that the value in min_gui= is lower than the one in size=. Just edit the file with notepad and change the values as appropriate.

Code:

Complete code looks like this:

graphics=
{
	size=
	{
		x=1680
		y=1050
	}

	min_gui=
	{
		x=1280
		y=720
	}

I try every possible solution too, nothing work. Turn off steam is the only way to run the game.
EU4 is a great game, I enjoy it. But multiplayer and achievements need steam to work, I hope paradox can fix it ASAP.

There are no general problems as most people can play online on Steam. Make sure your firewall or antivirus software isn't the cause.
