Stellaris - unable to load into the menu or game after launching the game from the launcher

[Woolliercobra77]

Description
unable to load into the menu or game after launching the game from the launcher

Game Version
3.4.5(a361)

What version do you use?
Steam

What expansions do you have installed?
All expansions up to the overlord DLC

Do you have mods enabled?
No

Please explain your issue is in as much detail as possible.
After launching the game, it sends me to a loading screen regardless of pressing play or resume. The loading bar does not fill up, and no writing appears on the loading bar. I believe the game freezes, and the mouse Icon of planets is moving(loading) through. I tried launching it from another account and launched it through GeForce, the last time I played was sometime after the overlord DLC was released, which was about a month ago. I also verified file integrity, and I reinstalled it yesterday which was 8/15/2022. As for mods, I disables and deleted all of them.

Steps to reproduce the issue.

did the launcher log you into your account? I would try logging out and back in. I had a infinite loading issue but it only happened when the client thought the computer wasn't connected to the net.

I tried doing that once, but there was an update for the launcher. I did what u told me, and did the update, then it loaded. When I tried again for the 2nd time, it did not work. (The 2nd attempt was about an hour from the 1st attempt)

Sometimes if you click too fast -- before the launcher has finished doing whatever it does -- the launcher will crash instead of exiting cleanly.

Maybe the launcher is crashing before it finishes setting up the game for you?

Try letting it finish spinning before clicking Resume.

Sorry for the late response, I got busy.
Nothing, but if I down-date to the oldest version, it will launch. Then update to version 3.2.2, it would work most of the time. I have been gone for a while, and now going back to the older version is not working anymore.

I'm currently dealing with a similar problem, but I'm using the only modification that's compatible with it, and just about two days after the game and the mod were updated, the game refused to launch once it reached 100% of the first of the two necessary loadings, and never gets to the "load game/new game" option set.
Rolling it back won't do diddly-squat, as the game won't be compatible; the problem is that Stellaris no longer fully loads properly. It just keeps on cycling and ceases to respond.
