Game crashes at random

[Kitticut]

Hello,

since i got my new computer i get constant crashes in Victoria 3 and Crusader Kings 3. (EUIV and HOIIV are running fine)

I hope attached is everything you need, let me know if you need something else.

I can also say I've been having the same exact issue - other games run fine. Whenever I start the game, and click simple buttons, the game crashes to desktop. Happens within the first minute of the game.

You probably have this issue:

Inconsistent in-game crash on gametime resume

Hi everybody, I've got a weird behavior with Imperator: Rome after upgrading my computer to Windows 11. I have updated all drivers & firmware, performed a clean re-install of the game (discarding my old imperator profile, verifying game files...

Let us know if setting Victoria3.exe to only run on your pCores with Affinity helps you, thanks.

You do not have that same issue as your CPU does not have eCores.

We see some LiveKernelEvent entries, they happen when windows is forcibly downed. Have you seen that, is it related to this game or somethign else?

In any case try updating your AMD video driver to the latest

I tuned Vici 3 down to 8 cores and had a testrun (on speed 3) for about three years without any crashes. Speed 5 seems to be a bit more unstable (crashed after one year).

All in all i think this fix made the game a lot more stable for me, thank you. But i hope you are able to implement a fix for this issue in time, the workaround is kinda tedious.

Agreed, but as this is an engine problem it is not amenable to any quick fix! Sorry about that.
