Victoria 3 always finding a new way to crash

[DarthRaptorrus]

Hi
This is a problem I had basically since the game launched, game always eventually crashing to desktop. While in 1.0 and partially in 1.1 I could attribute it to game not being optimised and my graphic card being outdated, the problem persisted,despite getting a new card (GTX 970 ->GTX 1660Ti).
In the past game would crash on autosaves, manual saves, zooming or looking around the map too fast.
In 1.2 game always crashed after few ingame days passed, I decided to try few solutions posted there but to no avail. Clean reinstall made the things worse, because ingame graphical settings changed and new problem appeared: I can't change texture quality at all because it instantly crashes the game. Neither can I start the game as crash also happens. My PC meets the recommended requirements to play the game, but despite that I can't play the game at all.

Right click on Victoria3.exe , properties, compatibility. Tick "disable fullScreen optimisations" untick every other box in that dialog, Apply and exit.

Then in the launcher Game Settings menu, select fullScreen display mode, Vsync off, cap refresh rate at 60.


IF that doesn't help:
DXDIAG is a program you run from the Windows search box on the task bar. After running it will open a window and start collecting info with a progress bar in the lower-left corner. When it completes click the 'save all information' button and save it to a file then attach that file here.

From your Documents/Paradox Interactive/Vic3/logs/ folder, attach here system.log , error.log , exceptions.log
