Getting "Game stopped working" after a few years

[Septemvile]

Hey all,

My friend and I were playing CKII yesterday and we made it to about 1097 without big issues, but after that it got a little wonky. When we play together it always seems to crash at the autosave of Jan.1 1001. When I load the save by myself I can clock on past that, but it'll usually crash for me playing solo around 1003-5. Sometimes at the autosave, sometimes just in the middle of the year.

I tried validating my files (validated one file), and still the same result. I'm inclined to wonder if it was an issue with the save game? I don't think it's likely to be bloating since it happens to both of our computers and the save game is like maybe 17-20mb.

find your MyDocuments CK2 /Map/ directory, and delete the navaldist_cache + navaldist_cache_chksum files. They will regenerate automatically.

If it happens immediately after starting the game, save the game after the desync and then you start a new MP game from the save.

Just tried that. Ran from 1097-1103 and then crashed on the autosave at 1103.

This is still in MP? What if you pay that same game in SP, does it still happen?

ETA: note that BOTH players had to do that ...

no at that point we were trying to run the save in single player as we kind of got fed up playing the same few years over and over and it still happened
