I have run the games 4 times since the beginning and all instances crashed. Please help me anyone!

Hi! Sorry you are experiencing issues.

Can you give me some more specifics? Are you using a Dualshock 4 controller? Does it crash when you try to do something specific?

Thanks!

Thank you for the logs!

Based on my research so far, there are 2 possible solutions:
1. I need to upgrade my version of Unity as this may be a bug fixed in Unity 2018. This is assuming you are using Windows 7, I think.
2. This may be an issue with Steam itself. Try following the instructions here: https://steamcommunity.com/discussions/forum/1/864973032790233112/

If #2 doesn't help you...
it may be a while before I can upgrade Unity to the latest version. There are always a lot of things that break when I do that and I'll need to fix them all before uploading a new build. In the meantime, feel free to refund the game until there is a fix. I hate the idea of someone spending money on a game that doesn't work for them.

Thanks again!

Hey Mr.Beaver, getting an error code with that at all? Or is it crashing straight to desktop without one?

Thanks for the crash reports! Have you also also opened up a support ticket?[support.ubisoft.com]

I would recommend at least giving it a shot -definitely sounds like it could be an irritating thing to deal with.

In the game launcher please set Display mode to windowed.

IF that doesn't help, Install ALL these Microsoft modules:

Download Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 SP1 Redistributable Package (x86) from Official Microsoft Download Center

www.microsoft.com www.microsoft.com

Download Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 SP1 Redistributable Package (x64) from Official Microsoft Download Center

www.microsoft.com www.microsoft.com

Download Microsoft Visual C++ 2015 Redistributable Update 3 RC from Official Microsoft Download Center

www.microsoft.com www.microsoft.com

Download DirectX End-User Runtimes (June 2010) from Official Microsoft Download Center

www.microsoft.com www.microsoft.com (run dxsetup.exe after extracting from this download)

Add CK3.exe to the exceptions list of your antivirus app; ESPECIALLY if you have Windows Defender, add it to the Ransomware "Apps Allowed Through" list.


If those don't help:
DXDIAG is a program you run from a command prompt or the Windows start menu 'run' dialog box (or 'search programs' in Windows 7 or later). 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.

Please attach your Documents/Paradox/CK3/pdx_settings.txt .
From your Documents/Paradox/CK3/logs/ folder, attach system.log , error.log

I make video of my problem : I add "paradox interactive" folder in my AV (eset nod32) exeption (i don't find ck3.exe on my computer, game pass ?).
MS lock down the gamepass folders very hard, they are almost impossible to access.

However if the computer has to be restarted, that begins to sound like a Windows or hardware problem.

Both cards ran every other game fine with no crashes. Any help would be appreciated i am dying to play.
Hey! I'm sorry to read you're facing crashing issues, especially with your new 30 series GPUs.

Can you please explain in more detail what happens when you try to launch the game? Have you also tried launching with the Vulkan API?

Try following the steps in the following support article: https://support.ubisoft.com/Article/000063728

That will help ensure your drivers are installed completely clean, without the chance of any old drivers conflicting.

I hope that helps!

Sorry to hear that you have been experiencing these issues. Can you also try the following steps:

Ubisoft Connect
EPIC GAMES LAUNCHER
STEAM

Disable Background Applications.

Make sure your OPERATING SYSTEM is UP TO DATE.

Reinstall Ubisoft Connect.

If the issue persists please let us know.

Thank you.

Hey niZe!

Thank you for sharing that this worked for you!

Hello @Neil1511 ! If the suggestion given by @longjohn119 about reverting your drivers doesn't seem to work, I highly recommend giving the steps in this guide a try as well! If the game is still crashing after that, grab some copies of your MsInfo and DxDiag files, and submit them via ticket on our Support Site so that Support Agents can get a better look at what exactly is going on!

@longjohn119 Thank you for providing that thread.

@Neil1511 Were you able to try rolling back the drivers, to see if that helped with the issue?

Hi @neil1511, sorry to hear the fixes provided so far and workarounds have not resolved your crashes.

I have a few suggestions you can try also, to help with these crashing issues, if it was not caused by a recent driver update (after both updating driver and rolling back) -

- Run the game as an administrator via the game's .exe file, right-click on the file, select Properties, select the Security tab, check to make sure the current PC user has Administrator privilege's for this file
 
- Verify the game's installation files, through the game launcher, to fix any corrupt or missing files that may be causing the crashes -
https://support.ubisoft.com/en-gb/Article/000060529
 
- Install the game to another HDD or SSD drive preferably, if available. Also try installing the game on a separate hard drive as your Windows OS (Make sure to back up any game save files onto your desktop first, just in case)
 
- Disable all background software in Task Manager and try a clean boot/restart of your PC, in case any software is interfering with the game -
https://support.ubisoft.com/en-GB/Article/000063761
 
- Make sure the game is whitelisted as not a threat in your anti-virus software, in case it prevents the game from launching or connecting online
 
- Make a backup of the games config/settings file, then delete this file in case a recent change to the settings may be causing the game to crash (Changing the recommended graphics/video/monitor settings in the game, can sometimes prevent the game from launching)
 
- Delete any temporary files by doing a search for the %TEMP% folder
 
- Do a System File Check (SFC) for any corrupted system files and a CHKDSK for any corrupted hard drives -
https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/using-system-file-checker-in-windows-10-365e0031-36b1-6031-f804-8fd86e0ef4ca
 
 
This support article should explain how to perform some of these solutions -
https://www.ubisoft.com/help?article=000061047
 
Please let me know if you need any help with the steps above and I will happily explain further.

By sending that error report you are NOT starting a process of diagnosis of your individual problem and you will never be contacted about it. Those reports are anonymised and collated so the developers can see general trends and new widespread problems, it is not an individual service. That's what we here are!

If there are no mods in use, attach the affected saved game here and we'll see if we get the problem too. If so it's a game bug and you'll need to post it in the bug reports forum here.

Hey there Agents, and thank you very much for your patience. I have moved this thread to our Player Support section so that we can take a closer look.

Hey @MasterQuest71, thanks for reaching out, welcome to forums and sorry to hear about crash issue you've been dealing with as I fully appreciate how frustrating it can be to deal with.

First and foremost, so that we could have a better understanding about it all, may I check the following:

  1. Do you happen to receive any error messages at all?
  2. I understand that issue only occurs whilst you're playing rather than on launch, therefore if this is the case indeed, did you possibly identify if this is caused after any particular actions in-game or anything in general that may have triggered such outcome?


As far as troubleshooting goes, if you haven't already, give the following steps a go, which tends to help with majority of technical related issues, and see if issue persists.

Keep us updated! 🙂

P.S. Your English is perfect!

Hey @TheJihadist ! Welcome to Discussions!

Sorry to hear your game is crashing at random intervals. As you didn't specify what exact troubleshooting you attempted, I'd recommend this article to start, to eliminate any common causes of crashes.

If the issue persists, I'd suggest reaching out to our Support-Team directly via our Help-Website and to provide us with your system reports, so we can go through your configuration and more readily find the cause of the issue.
