Multiplayer Stability

[illapa]

Ok. Help me out here. Three friends and myself used to play the previous version just fine. Since the new patch though we did the following.

1. Saw and downloaded the new version.
2. Uninstalled previous version.
3. Removed residual things that uninstaller might not have gotten rid of.
4. installed new version
5. Hosted a Multiplayer game.
6. Picked the Conquest Start Date.
7. Desync the second we unpause. We can't even get past day 1.

8. We tried with different hosts.
9. We downloaded software (we tried Tunngle and Evolve) to give ourselves a VPN and we went 1 year and 1 month and had a desync.
10. We tried again and we disabled ALL DLC Except for the ones that actually add content: Customizer, Character Creator( we did not character create), Legacy of Rome, Old Gods, Rajas, Islam, Sons of Abraham, Aztecs, Republic, Charlemange, Way of Life.
11. Insta Desync.

Before the patch 3 of us could go decades without a desync without a VPN.

After we gave up we played CK2 with a smaller mod, without the VPN and played for 50+ years before we got a desync.

What are we doing wrong?

Nothing 0.9.3 is much more unstable then 0.9.2!
Recommend to roll back to 0.9.2 it is simply more stable.

Really am playing 0.9.2 modded with whistle and bells, while 0.9.3 funny enough with load old save games seems stable.
But starting a new game it is like a crash feast even keep changing checksums after a crash.
Something that shouldn't be happening. But it does.

wait loading a 9.2 game with 9.3 works for you?

Yes I imported a 0.9.2 game into 0.9.3 funny enough the stability is the same (and it was a edited 0.9.1 savegame)
So compitability is funny enough more stable from save games.

But did starting new game 0.9.3 the mess is huge, did play for 50 years but the number of crashes was ridiculous.
And my 0.9.3 and base CK2 ain't modded yet, was seeing how stable it was first before doing own modding on it.

But as said before am waiting for next dlc expansion before modding the base game, but so far the test seems that 0.9.2 is more stable, then 0.9.3

Would have loved the new coat of arms of 0.9.3 and the refix of valyrian sword reforge event (but the sword can mod meself, the coa am not indept with it at all)

It isn't that I do not appreciate the AGOT team hard work, infact totally the opposite from it.
They are doing a awesome job.

Just in 0.9.2 they had a very stable version it seems. Which also worked wonders for modders and submodders.
Maybe time for a full clean reinstall, but I played base CK2 game also to see if maybe the base game has been corrupted or not.
So problem lies with 0.9.3 also in play trough online from youtube, am seeing the same bugs. Traits icons not appearing on characters.

I had mega wars in 0.9.2 on two continents without crashes, crashes were usually in too many looped events (nothing they can do about that) but in 0.9.3 It just crashes randomly without explanations. And never the same place.

What fix for the valyrian reforge event are you talking about?

If you want a good stability, just revert back to AGOT 0.9 and Ck2 2.2.1, our MP group did that.

What fix for the valyrian reforge event are you talking about?

The one that in 0.9.2 that didn't hand back the valyrian steel sword after death of thief!
Anyway duplicate sword still happens in 0.9.3 but since the character who stole it is dead.

It doesn't really matter! It will be erased from the game after a year cause it is irrelevant.
