[2.3.4][FMNO] Game freezes/crashes on a given date

[breversa]

Description :
Playing as the duke of Semien, the game freezes consistently on the 771-10-21.

The game would freezes (= time stops suddenly, UI stops responding), but the music keeps playing and I can still move my mouse cursor. The screen then gets black for a few second (and I can hear my graphics card fan go crazy) before reverting to the same frozen display.

Sometimes I can ctrl-alt-esc (or alt+tab) out of the game, sometimes I cannot. Same goes for ctrl-alt-F*. In the most critical cases, I even have to reboot my computer (though the music keeps playing).

DLC :
All to date except ebooks and EU converter

Mods :
None.

Reproductability :
Load the attached savegame. Play until 771-10-21. Game freezes 100% of the times. Playing as another character produces the same result.

-- >Starting a new game produces the same result, though at another date. That makes me think it's linked to a game event.

Attached files :
- savegame
- all non-empty logs from that playing session (after game freeze/computer reboot)

Please let me know if I can provide any other info.

For some reason, I can't upload attachments… Is it because this is my first post ?

No, it is probably a size issue. If you are trying to upload a save game, upload it to any free filesharing site and share a link. Dropbox/Google Drive/etc.

Weird, the file is not even 3MB though…

Anyway, here it is : https://my.owndrive.com/public.php?service=files&t=563e4e303eba7eb1709cbaec3cbbd1cb

I tried loading up your save. I could run the game for over a year without any issues. Running ubuntu 14.04.

I would suggest you to do a complete re-install of the game. Including deleting the entire "Crusader Kings II" folder at "/home/user/.paradoxinteractive/Crusader Kings II". Just remember to backup any save games you may want to keep. And see if that works.

I did reinstall the game, and though it allows me to play further, the same freeze/crash happens again after some more time… :'-(

The screen flashing makes me think of maybe a graphics card issue (I did not have that problem when I had my previous nVidia card), though I wouldn't be surprised if PulseAudio was to blame as well (I need to start Steam with "SDL_AUDIODRIVER=pulseaudio")…

Well, I guess it must have been a graphics issue, as I changed my old Radeon HD 3870 for a newer GeForce GTX 660 Ti and the problem suddenly disappeared.

(Thread can be marked as solved. How can I do that ?)
