CK3 Crash on Launch

[epic146gaming]

I just bought CK3, and it crashes whenever I load the game. Crash logs:

It looks like it could be a graphical bug. Anyone know what to fix?

 

[AndrewT]

Run a Steam Verify operation against. the game, see if that finds anything to fix.

If not 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/settings.txt and pdx_settings.txt .
From your Documents/Paradox/CK3/logs/ folder, attach system.log .

Just get this file made and posted here please, I think I explain it fairly clearly:

[Pinty]

where do i save file

In a file. On your computer. On your desktop.

Anywhere will do, as long as you can then find it and attach it here then, so i can read it.

I had the same problem. Finally after searching forums, I have fixed it. It was my grafic driver. Just updated it, and my game runs perfectly.

 

[AndrewT]

My crash is not on start, but after short playing the game.

Then it is not the same problem, as that was a crash at start. In future please make your own new thread, thanks.

We see a number of mod errors in that log, so if this crash happens when using any mods they are very likely the problem.

Otherwise is the crash repeatable from a particular save game file? or does it happen in any new campaign you start as well?
