Summary​

Game keeps crashing every time i see the map

Description​

I used to play this game a lot and this never happened. Today, I launched it and it crashed after 5 years. I reloaded it and played for another 2 years, and it crashed. Then, it wouldnt even let me play without crashing when I autosaved the next month. When I clean re-installed the game, it only got worse and I can't even pick a country to start a new game as I crash on the loading screen after you press one of the options after "New Game". Thoughts on how to fix?

Steps to reproduce​

I don't know how anyone else can replicate this. I've just launched the game on steam and everytime I do it this happens. I've tried reverting versions as well, as far as 1.5.13

Game Version​

No Beta participation, and all versions from the latest to 1.5.13

OS​

Windows

Bug Type​

Crash to Desktop

Right click on victoria3.exe , properties, compatibility. Tick "disable fullScreen optimisations" untick every other box in that dialog, Apply and exit.
Then in the launcher Game Settings menu, select fullScreen display mode, Vsync off, cap refresh rate at 60.


If those don't help:
DXDIAG is a program you run from the Windows search box on the task bar. After running it will open a window and start collecting info with a progress bar in the lower-left corner. When it completes click the 'save all information' button and save it to a file then attach that file here. IF dxdiag.txt fails to attach here, rename it to dxdiag.log , or zip it up. Thanks.

From your Documents/Paradox Interactive/Victoria3/logs/ folder, attach here system.log , error.log , exceptions.txt
