Description
Crashes when loading saved game


Windows


Steam

What is your game version?
1011166

What DLC do you have installed?
(DID NOT ANSWER QUESTION)

Please explain your issue is in as much detail as possible.
I have an old game I started like a year ago, the only mod I've been using is Elevator A.I., and a few months ago it stopped loading (I guess after an update??)... when I go to load it, it completely crashes about 5 seconds later after selecting my save file. Does it even with the mod uninstalled. Starting a new game works fine, though.

Can you replicate the issue?
Every time. Loading the old save.

Was that game log taken just after a failure to load that save? Because it doesn't seem to get that far!

and a few months ago it stopped loading (I guess after an update??)
The most recent patch for this game was over a year ago now. So something else has triggered this, it seems.

As far as the save goes, your only hope would be that the redoubtable @ChoGGi_2 looks into it and finds a problem that can be fixed by editing it or making a custom mod. I don't know if they are still up for such help!
 
My prompt reply shows how often I log into paradox ;)

Well, I got good news and bad. That mod is updated (all of Ski's mods work with last patch).
The bad news is the save still crashes for me, nothing useful in my log file either. I did notice yours cut off just after the sound device part, so that might have been something else (hpk archives corrupt maybe?). Unless there's something in the log file I can use, or I have a good idea of what's causing it crash then there's not much I can do.
 
Thank you for checking, @ChoGGi_2 ! Much appreciated.

I'm sorry @Artorios Rex , there's something wrong with that save file that is beyond us to see and fix. Sorry about that!
