Please explain the issue you experienced in the most condensed way possible
The game is crashing to desktop when playing Bavaria, varied between 1836-1838. The crash is "clean"; It doesn't freeze, it just instantly goes to desktop as if I alt+F4ed. Tested with other nations(Brazil, Swiss), and was NOT getting the same issue(Update: After more attempts, it is now happening for every nation I have attempted, including those I have no had the issue with before)

Please explain how to reproduce the issue
Play as Bavaria.(Updatelay as any nation)

Is there anything else you think could help us identify/replicate the issue?
I do not know the exact issue, as the time it happens varies; As soon as 2nd month of 1836, and as late as 1838. I have already validated my game, uninstalled my game and reinstalled it to a different drive, FULL uninstall(Including deletion of the Vic3 folder in documents). The save game attachment is the most recent autosave of the most recent attempt.(Update:I have also updated my graphics driver and did the 'full screen' fix that was suggested to other people with this same issue. It did not work.)

I have attached a save game
Yes

Hi! Could you please upload the zipped contents of your Documents/Paradox Interactive/Victoria 3/crashes as well as the DxDiag file obtained through Start Menu-> DxDiag -> Save all information?
Thanks!

Theres nothing in the crashes folder, which is odd, but other people with similiar issues also reported not having crash files. I am attaching the DxDiag file, but I want to point out that this was not an issue at any other point of Victoria 3; Not even when it first launched. It was only when I started playing on 1.3.6(I didn't play any other 1.3.x verison)

 

[PDX_Sosanna]

Lack of logs in the crash folder usually points to a system or hardware issue (system terminates the game rather than the game crash handler). The only suspicious thing I can see in your DxDiag file is that you have less than 5GB of free space on your system drive, which might cause some issues or even crashes under heavier memory load (an SSD drive especially should never have less than 10% of free space).

I'll move the thread to Technical Support forum as they might have more suggestions for hardware/system-related issues.
Good luck!

Agreed, you are critically low on free space on C: and D: . Windows likes >10% free space, especially on the boot drive.

This is only happening in the save you attached, not in any new or other campaign you might play?


Do these crashes show up in the Windows Event Viewer?
