[2022] Game Crashing on MAC can not play

Please do a full **clean** re-install:

- move any valued save games elsewhere
- "uninstall" in Steam-CK3
- manually delete both the Steam/SteamApps/common/CK3 AND Documents/Paradox Interactive/CK3 folders
- re-install game in Steam, run a Steam Verify when done.
- start the game with no mods active and test

In particular make sure there are no files or folders left under either the Steam CK3 or Documents CK3 locations, before installing again.


**File Locations on Mac OS X**
The executable and DLC folder are in Users/USER/Library/Application Support/Steam/SteamApps/common/Crusader Kings III/
To see it go to the Finder, hit command-shift-G (ie Go To) and type in ~/Library/ .
The user files (settings.txt, error logs, saved games, gfx, mods) are in /Users/USER/Documents/Paradox Interactive/Crusader Kings III/ .


If those don't help:
Please attach here your Documents/Paradox Interactive/CK3/pdx_settings.txt .
From your Documents/Paradox Interactive/CK3/logs/ folder, attach here system.log , error.log , exceptions.log

Also in Steam please click on Steam-Help-System Info, and paste everything there into a text file and attach that here.  

The exceptions log info is entirely in the Apple video driver for your AMD graphics system. Which is odd because your driver is up to date and your hardware is supported.

Does it also happen in windowed display mode? What if you reduce video quality settings?  

Not really, we're not seeing this as a general issue for Mac users. Very hard to understand what could be different about your machine to cause this.

Normally Mac users don't have antivirus apps, but maybe you do? If so make sure ck3.app is allowed through it.

If you start the game from ck3.app directly does this still happen?

Did you do this part?

To see it go to the Finder, hit command-shift-G (ie Go To) and type in ~/Library/ .

In fact you can paste in ~/Library/Application Support/ . Make sure you include the tilde ~  

Ah, you aren't the OP! Yours is a different problem, the game will not run on Intel videos systems under MacOS any more - that is not and has never been supported hardware for the game. You'll need to revert to 1.5.1.1 unless you can play on a machine with supoorted hardware.

Sorry about that!
