[2023] Can't revert to 1.11.2 using Steam Properties

PC Update 1.11.3

Hello everybody! We've got one more update before the holidays releasing today. It's a small one reenabling the OpenGL renderer for MacOS users. Please note that this renderer is still unsupported, we're just restoring the option to use it... forum.paradoxplaza.com
Are you using mods?

I'm saying that it's highly unlikely that the patch (for which the notes are one single line) has broken anything.

And that the steam betas only contain more significant version changes, not minor ones.

No. What you do on your PC doesn't change the versions Steam maintain for PDX.  

The latest version that appears on my beta list is also 1.11.0, so yeah it seems 1.11.2 is not on the beta lists and there's really nothing you can do to change that - besides asking Paradox to add it there maybe? But don't expect they do. The changes from 1.11.2 to 1.11.3 are so minor that probably that's the reason they didn't wanna maintain 1.11.2 on the list, because that'd mean maintaining two versions that are basically the same and Steam has a limited space for beta versions - the less the better.

As for your broken saves issue, I'm moving this thread to Tech Support so you can get better help on that.  

The devs said the only difference between 1.11.2 and 1.11.3 was re-enabling openGL support on Macs. It is hard to see how that could have rendered saved games unplayable! Especially on Windows.

In what way are these saves broken? Were they started under any of the 1.11.x patches, or something earlier?


As to what game versions are on the Betas tab, Steam do limit how many we are allowed to put up there. So I guess given that minor change, it didn't seem worth using up a beta slot for it.
