Summary​

Not able to play anymore due to a sudden crash

Description​

Nothing in particular. I was doing the usual things, like invading a country to conquer a county. I am moving my army and then the crash occurs. I tried restarting the game, but it happened four times in a row, so I assume I can no longer continue playing with this save file.

I tried to upload the save file itself within this form, but it seems I'm not able to do it. So I'll just upload the .txt files I've found in the crash folder which was automatically generated. If I can provide the save file on a different uploading platform, e.g. Drive or something like that, please just tell me.

I hope something can be done because the game was quite long, from 867 to about 1250... and in Ironman mode, so no backup at all.

Game created with 1.9.X. Active Steam Workshop mods: More Lifestyles; More Courtier Marriages and Guardians.

Steps to reproduce​

Just press play and wait a few days. On the fourth time I tried, it even happened before I pressed play.

[Obviously I wrote this instructions when I thought I would have been able to upload the file]

Game Version​

1.10.2 (Quill) - It happened for the first time with 1.10.1

Platform​

Windows

I tried the DX/Vulkan trick suggested in other posts, but it didn't work.

I also tried to attach the save file to this comment, but it goes up until 26% and then the upload stops. Is there a MB limit or a timeout after some time? The save file is 89MB.

Any news?

Hi! Have you tried playing without mods on a fresh save and seeing if it works?

Yeah, it works both with and without the mods. The question is: what is the problem within this specific savefile? Will I be able to play with it again? Can I revert somehow to 1.9.X and see if it works?

Right now I'm not interested at all to start it all over again, to be honest.

It is most likely to do with the mods, you can try reverting your game to an earlier version to see if it works

Ok, I'll definitely give it a try. Sorry for the noob question: how can I restore a previous version of CK3? Is there a list available via the Paradox Launcher or on Steam?

Right click on CK3 in the Steam library >Properties >Betas >Beta participation dropdown >Select the version you'd like to revert to
