Syntheticdawn eu4 questions

[link15]

Ok so,
1.Ive tried many times to do the command syntheticdawn(space)(country tag) and each time it said that it was an unavailable country for the invasion (i ttied with a lot of the from strond to weak and from many religions) anf still im not able to choose which nation it will start in. Question: is there something im missing?
2. Then ive used the syntheticdawn command without the coutry tag wich makes it random (which is ok since i just wanted to play with them) but then after a small period of time the game crashes i have no idea why. question:why is it crashing?

Notes for 1.: i tried with the extended timeline mod and without any mods
Notes for 2.: the latest one was without any mod and it crashed the moment i anexed the last of ming provinces (so it was maybee that i inherited all his trebutaries) but the many otger ones there wasnt any tributary it was just random.
Notes in general: have every dlc and my computer is not super productif but is stong enough to never had crashed a game before that point. And 2nd point, i did had (with commands) given myself max tech but i still tried to do it with less tech advantage and it still crashed

I think they need more than 10 provinces.

Do you have a save without mods in which the game crashes reliably at some point? Then you could attach it here and maybe I can find out what is causing the crash.

1. I dont know how to do that (sharing a save) and the save would be about 1 year max before when it crashed if i can send it
2. Now that i think about it the 10 province minimum maybe what going on ill try at somepoint and ill edit after the results

Thanks a lot

When you write a comment here in this thread, you can use the "attach files" button to add a save game. You can find them on your system in "Documents/Paradox Interactive/Europa Universalis IV/save games"

ok ill retry and if crashes ill send it to you since i have a new laptop now and i didnt save the otherones in the cloud ill try a bunch
thank you really much though

edit: ive tried to do the command syntheticdawn with venice and it said invalid target and ive tried with france and it worked so you are probably right with the minimum of provinces but it is more then 10

ok so i played a while and it crashed ill send you the save btw it is not the computer fault it is a good computer

im pretty sure its that save
context: started as france (syntheticdawn) without any mod conquered a bunch and crashed after a while
it autosave each year so im not sure when exactly it crashed in that same year. i just know that i was about to finish off naples (which only contisted of the most southeastern province of it)
edit i tried to restart my computer and continue as i was and i crased again at the ish same time and that time i even tried to be at speed 4 and not 5 it didnt work

I tried your save and I managed to make it crash after several tries. I think what is happening is that when you annex the last province of a country which has non-PU subjects, these subjects become your subjects. But you are still at war with them(this would not happen if you would not play the Synthetics, because other countries can't annex without ending the war). And in some cases the game then crashes when you fully annex that subject. It would probably be useful if you set your autosaves to monthly and let it run till it crashes again and then load that save and let it run till one day before the crash and save again. Then you can test this save a few times to see which siege or other thing which happens is causing the crash and then create a bugreport with that save and the information what is causing the crash in that save. Then the developers can have a look at it and fix the crash.

If that's the only source of your crashes, you can avoid them by making sure to never occupy the last province of a country which still has subjects.
If you still have other crashes, I would recommend that you set the autosaves to monthly and then post a save from shortly before the new crash.

But you know that you are not supposed to play the Synthetics, right? They are meant as the ultimate end-game challenge.

thank you really much, im going to try to do what you sayed. to do a bug report is it when it crash the popup or is it something else?

no i didnt know i just wanted to have an easy(and i mean EASY) game of eu4 (i manage to form japan faster than zlewick but i cant play as ottomans without exploding)

but again thank you really much for your time.

If you want to do a bugreport, you have to post it in the eu4 bugreports forum. The crash reporter popup is not so helpful for the developers, because it doesn't upload your save.
