Summary​

Game won't save.

Description​

The summary appears to be true, whenever I load up the game it tells me I have no saves to load from. That said, when in the launcher it recognizes the last save and I can hit resume and it will supposedly load that game. The problem, it doesn't load the game and just takes me to the main menu.

So it is saving, but the game doesn't actually recognize that there is a save when in the game.

And a side issue, the game randomly crashes after about 10-20 years into the game when clicking on events, diplomacy etc. Which, when combined with the inability to save, makes the game totally unplayable.

Steps to reproduce​

Play and try to reload a game? As to the crashing, no idea. It seems to happen somewhat at random.

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.
