Hi

Since yesterday 22 Dec 16 when I go to save a game I get a CTD. The save game I am playing loads successfully and I can play however I noticed the problem when the game did an autosave and crashed. I have auto saves and saved games for my 'game' that cover 2 weeks and I have tried disabling all my mods and I have verified the game cache in steam and tried loading old saves.

This is very frustrating I could understand an error in the most recent save but game points that I have loaded from in the past and continued from which did work before are no longer working since yesterday. There was an update that did download from steam but I thought that was just your news article.

Any assistance would be appreciated - these games are long so I don't really want to start all over.

Note : I've played 400+ hrs so .. If I can help with any files just let me know the locations, thanks

While this might be better suited for the tech forum, I can say I have had some issues like that. I do hoever manualy copy savegames into antother folder to back them up for this very reason (i play ironman), so my losses were minor. As for the actual save that crashes, I have found no way to fix it, and i have tried a few different things, like manualy saving upon load, etc. For me every save that has a CTD is useless. If its the save causing the game to crash, or the crash that corrupts the save I dont know.
