I am experiencing an issue with my HOI4; I can play for a few months, even a year or two, before unexpectedly crashing (the game completely quits) and getting an error reporter; there is no pattern to the crashes. It's just random.

"graphics.cpp:129]: No font with the name"

is found in all of the crash reports. At the end, I put my own below to show an example.

Apologies if this needs more details if I can be known what to post I'll update it, this is my first help thread.

The error.log does not contain any crash related info.

For that, you need to locate the crashes folder in your hoi4 data folder. In it, there is an exceptions file. That file contains the crash point information

That looks like something went wrong in the context of memory management inside the game. Did you allow the launcher/reporter to send crash data to Paradox? If so, the devs now have the same info and can examine it. If not, please make a bug report about it in the bug reporting sub forum.
 
Are you running any mods and does the game crash on the same day each time? If so, the issue is likely related to one of the focus trees. See if the problem is replicable without the mod that is altering focus trees.

It happens regardless of mods, I'm honestly unsure what it could possibly be. I've reinstalled and completely wiped any paradox files yet it still happens

Here's three other crash results I found in four of the most recent logs

Unhandled Exception C0000005 (EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION) at address 0x00007FF7EAD05FA0

Unhandled Exception C0000005 (EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION) at address 0x00007FF65296063A

Like I said before, let the crash reporter send a report to Paradox.

But, if you do want to post your crash data here, at least include the stack trace with the crash address. A crash address alone isn't extremely helpful ;)
 
PHYSFS is the file system layer of the game (the layer responsible for reading in all the game data files and writing out any save game files). It's rather unusual to have it crash there. Maybe a virus scanner is interfering?

I've checked and have no conflicts in my anti-virus

Do you have any mods installed and active? If so, could you try without any mods?

So after some testing around I have had some better stability using OpenGL as the render option under game settings in the launcher. Although I do have some issues with fullscreen borderless mode not working properly and the UI not upscaling like it is supposed to but at least I'm not crashing as often I used to. I hope this helps you.

Also, I did find this from a similar post with the same problem as us. I am yet to test but hopefully, it works for us, please let me know if this works for you.

This is quite speculative, but your CPU has 8 pCores and 16 eCores. Run the game up then alt-tab out to Windows, run Task manager. Right click on the game, Go To Details, Set Affinity. Leave CPU 0-7 ticked, untick the rest.

Is that any better?
