Can't continue game, Iron man blocked?

[pipodeclown]

So I am playing as Brandenburg on a vanilla EU4, now all fine until it crashes, happend before so no big deal, I launch the game again, start playing, instantly crashes as i remove it from pause... Now i relaunched the game and now i can't start my game, it tells me my eu4 save game is altered... I cant launch any iron man save games anymore... In the screenshot you see a few with a red exclamation mark, that is from a mod i was running. I am talking about the brandenburg and austria one... can somebody help getting it to work again? I have verified integrity of game cache already, restarted steam/pc etc. Removed all my workshop content to be sure. Any ideas?

For some reason it wanted to start but as soon as it wants to save the iron man at the turn of the month another CTD

Ok i really hope somebody can help me. I also forgot to mention Steam lost connection mid game, i waited 1 min for connection and did refresh and continued, maybe this is an issue aswell

So you can't start any Ironman game any more? What version and checksum show in the main game menu?

Please try a full clean re-install:

- move any valued save games elsewhere
- "delete local files" in Steam
- manually delete all files and folders left under Steam/EU4 AND Documents/EU4
- re-install game in Steam, run a verify when done.

Ok I did that and it works, i can now play my save game again. Nut there is a new problem, the game crashes every now and then at an auto save. No error just freezes and when i do alt+tab i get the stopped working message. Annoying but playable

Just to make a report: I have the same problem since applying the hotfix. I can not continue my savegames in Ironman anymore.
