Error causing game to crash - help please :)

[max19941994]

Currently, every of my stellaris games are crashing at a certain day (not every time the same day)... so I thought I am posting my error log here - maybe someone can help me. I have never had these problems on my old MacBook, but since I have restarted playing stellaris on another MacBook, these crashes are coming up (yes, I tried reinstalling etc..) Thanks!

If there are no mods involved here Please do a full **clean** re-install:

- move any valued save games elsewhere, and user_empire_designs.txt from /Documents/Paradox Interactive/Stellaris/ if you have made any custom empires or races.
- "uninstall" in Steam-Stellaris
- manually delete both the Steam/SteamApps/common/Stellaris AND Documents/Paradox Interactive/Stellaris folders
- re-install game in Steam, run a Steam Verify when done.
- start the game with no mods active and test with a new galaxy - NOT with any existing one

In particular you need to make sure there are no files or folders left under either the Steam Stellaris or Documents Stellaris locations, before installing again.

**File Locations on Mac OS X**
The executable and DLC folder are in Users/USER/Library/Application Support/Steam/SteamApps/common/Stellaris/
To see it go to the Finder, hit command-shift-G (ie Go To) and type in ~/Library/ .
The user files (settings.txt, error logs, saved games, gfx, mods) are in /Users/USER/Documents/Paradox Interactive/Stellaris/ .

Okay, I think I hadn't deleted these folders.
Nevertheless, I am using mods; these are the mods in my current loading order:

1)Expanded Stellaris Traditions
2) Expanded Stellaris Ascension Perks
3) Lots of Traditions - 80 Slots
4) Lots of Traditions + UI Overhaul Dynamic
5) UI Overhaul Dynamic
6) Starnet AI
7) Archaeology Story Pack
8) Precursor Story Pack
9) Endless Frontier: An Event Mod
10) More Events Mod
11) Faster Galactic Community
12) Storypack: The Nyblax and the Collector
13) The Infinity Stones
14) Ancient Cache of Technologies
15) Ancient Cache of Technologies: Override
16) Ancient Cache of Technologies: Secrects beyong the gates
17) NSC2 Season 6
18) Starnet for NSC2
19) Gigastructural Engineering & more
20) Universal Resource patch 2.4+
21) Universal modifier patch (3.2)

these have worked fine until the newest patch/dlc without crashing any time....

As there are mods involved I can't help any further, I'm sorry. Presumably one or more don't work with the latest game versions.

Please check with the good folks over in the User Mods forum.

Good luck!
