How to enable Ironman.

[Styx2313]

Hey there guys,I am new to CK2 and I started playing Ironman mode for a while but I haven't been able to get achievements now due to my save file not enabling it..is there any way to get around that. I have enabled in the start of the game but if I open the save file its showing achievements cannot be gained.

When you start an Ironman game do you see the green tick at the top of the Game Rules screen, and Achievements Enabled at the bottom, before you hit Start Game?

To be eligible for achievements a campaign must be:

- started in Ironman mode
- have no mods that change the checksum
- started without Ruler Designer being used
- and not have any Rules selections that disable achievements

What game version and checksum do you see in the launcher? In the main game menu when run with NO mods enabled? Both should say 3.2.1 AZCE .

Yes I did that..its the save file after thats not accepting acheivements

So you can start a new Ironman game and it's eligible for achievements, is that right? But you have en existing save that is not, is that the situation?

Yes...

If this save still shows as Ironman but is not able to earn achievements, the most common cause is if there has been any network or Steam outage while you were playing. That ought to not cause a problem, but very very occasionally that makes save games ineligible for achievements. Did anything like that happen while you were playing? There was a major Steam outage a few days ago, for instance.

Yeah, I think my net went out due to the battery of my router being dead..

That would explain it then. I am very sorry that happened to you!
