Crash when annexing Canada

[Kaiser_of_Texas]

Alright, every time i attempt to annex Canada as the USSR the game crashes. I run vista (using compatibility mode for windows XP) and am only using 2 hacks, one making factories and infrastructure take 1 day to build (Im very impatient) and some tech. Is there anything i can do? (I have 1.3, cant update due to it being on a secondary hardrive).

Ive recently learned that this is now affecting all annexations, even German-Denmark, please help.

Comon guys. It's as if im being ignored....

Sorry I have read the thread but I have no idea what is wrong or how to fix it, and very little knowledge of Vista. My only idea would be to uninstall and reinstall the game. In Vista you want to have UAC off and do not install the game in the default Program Files folder, try C:\Games or something similar.

Hi. I run my paradox games in Vista 32 bit without any problems. I don't run them under XP compatibility. Also I run numerous versions and mods of HOI2/DD/ArmA with very few issues... so I don't think that your problem is with Vista per se.

Perhaps the issues are from the mods you have made ("hacks"), or even with pressing the game beyond the routine event paths. It is kind of unusual to annex Canada, as SOV; and even in plain vanilla HOi2 that sort of thing (not the specific example you state) has been known to cause CTD (crashes).

Are you annexing Denmark by the scripted event for Germany? Denmark lays down (or stands down) and normally you dont have to annex them through the diplomacy. Even so, I haven't seen a CTD when GER manually annexes any country, including Denmark.

Yes, ive never had that problem before, Denmark stood down as usual (Aka Annexation), but as soon as they did, the game crashed. And as for my modifications, i do not believe they would affect annexation, seeing as their only involving the time settings and infra/IC, and ive never had a problem annexing countries untill the Soviet/Canada incident. And the Denmark incident was quite early in the game, so despite the massive amounts of IC out there (America with 10k, Soviets with 5k) they haven't really had a chance to capitalize on that, so i dont believe that's the problem. Ill try playing without capatability mode, and update this thread.
