Please also post if you use macOS and it doesn't crash for you.

Of interest might also be which macOS version you are using and if you have one of the new M1 macs or not and how much RAM you have.

There is also a bugreport about this issue now. The user there suggested that it has something to do with the available memory. Does the issue happen more often if the RAM is filled with other background programs and less often if background programs are all closed?

I have random CTDs all the time (Big Sur 11.6.5, 2018 MBP, Intel i5, 16GB). Started with the 1.33 update.
The same as me then.

And it's been an issue specifically since 1.33. 1.32 did not have this issue.

I hope the guys at Paradox will take a look at this if we can help them with as much data as possible in the thread I linked.

Hi, I experience the same issue that randomly the game crashes. After restarting from the point of crash the game runs smoothly for a while and suddenly without actively doing something (nio mouse clicks, no scrolling) the game crashes and the write a note for the crash report window opens. The game file is 100 % intact and I have no issue with other installed games that run via Steam. But I am not so good in reading code, therefore I do not know what the issue might be. Regards Ingothered

It is strange because it seems all these reports have the issue of the crash being completely random.

It's not like it happens on a specific date or with a specific interaction. Furthermore, for me it is entirely a 1.33 issue.

If anyone else has the same issue please keep posting.

Mac user. Haven’t played much in latest patch (actually because the crashes in previous patch made me a bit fed up with the game), but have still been playing MP. Random crashes still happening there, but I have yet to find any rhyme or reason: no pattern discernible whatsoever.

Slightly off topic - I have a 2018 MBP an can do MP only at speed 2 after the the 1.30 patch - I lag otherwise. What hardware are you using to be able to play MP?

I’m still on 1.32.2, but I’ve had very few issues with multiplayer at speed 3 and 4 on a 2013 Mac Pro. Only a couple times in late game the speed had to drop, and it was because of the *other* player. The 2018 MBP didn’t have a great CPU, perhaps it’s just not up to snuff for EU4 with all the updates?

I never had issues with 1.30 or 1.32 myself. The game ran fine. These crashing issues are all since 1.33.

I can keep posting my crash files but I've posted a few in the technical support thread and they're all the same.

If it could please be brought to the attention of the Paradox Tinto team @BjornB I think we'd all be really appreciative since it seems like a problem a lot of Mac users are having. I'd like to enjoy EU4 without the constant crashing.

It is annoying if the game crashes randomly. Today even every few minutes. Love the game but it is no fun at the moment.
