Game crashes when loading save, or resigning

Game crashes when resigning, or switching from one save to another

When resigning from a game, or switching from one save to another on the nation selection screen, my game crashes about 50% of the time. I can still start a new game.

Problem did not occur in the last patch (beta patch before 1.103), which was the last time I played CK2.

I am using the Steam version of the game and have all the gameplay DLCs (Old Gods, Sunset Invasion, Sword of Islam, Republic, Legacy of Rome).

Tried to recreate it. Turns out the Exit to Menu crash was just my computer.

The save-switching crash, however, was real. It appears to happen when I switch from one save to another, while the first save is loading, and the second save is fairly large (it didn't happen when I switched between two newly created games).

The game appears to crash before it can record anything in error.log, though.

That save you are trying to reload, is it only for that specific save, or does it also happen to other save games? If it is that save only, you might want to upload it to a file hosting site so it can be checked whether or not it is a bug in that save.

 

[unmerged(150945)]

No, it's multiple save games, all the ones I made before I posted this thread. I guess it's because they were from 1.102 or 1.103 beta, and I re-saved them into 1.103 without unpausing.

I guess this doesn't seem to be too much of a problem any more though. I can still select them if I haven't loaded any saves beforehand. And it's only those 1.102 to 1.103 converted saves (I started a new game in 1.103, played for a while, and the save does not crash even if I loaded another one beforehand).

If this reoccurs I'll post again but it seems to have just been saves that were started in 1.102 so it's probably not worth investigating.

Anyway, thanks for responding.

 

[IcratoX]

It is possible that there were a couple of things that got screwed up even though the save games should be compatible between 1.102 and 1.103, maybe that the savegame repair tool of the forum user John Hadley may help repairing these saves: http://forum.paradoxplaza.com/forum/showthread.php?698240-Crusader-Kings-II-Save-Repair-Tool

The logs further look good.
