Was attempting to play an ironman game to 1821, I started it with the Songhai update, and don't have any mods enabled. After saving the game in 1781, whenever I attempt to load my save, I am able to select it and press the start button, but the game won't load past the "initializing" screen. I am able to load other games, as well as other ironman games from the same update patch, but this specific game gets stuck. The backup saves file results in the same issue. If I click on the screen when it is trying to load, that results in the game freezing and asking me if I want to close it. Is there any way to continue this game save?

If any more information is needed I would be happy to provide it.
 
If this campaign is using Random New World, that setup is starting to look like it causes game bug, I'm afraid.



Until it can be fixed please only play campaigns without using that feature.



Sorry about that!
 
No Random New World was used, the only DLC I had on was Third Rome and American Dream. Weirdly it was working right up until I saved and closed out of it. It doesn't show an error when I try to open the save, it just doesn't load past initializing. Could it just be the late game is too much for my computer to render?
 
It does not sound like a rendering issue. If the problem is reliably reproducible from that save game file, please make a new thread in Bug Reports and attach that save there, for QA to look into.

Sorry for that problem!
