My game sometimes crashes when it's saving

[unmerged(783555)]

My game keeps crashing when either I save (sometimes it works, other times it doesn't), or the game autosaves. Sometimes the save file that the game tries to make is corrupt, and my game will crash when I click the "Saved Game" tab, and it will keep crashing every time unless I delete the corrupt save file. I'm playing as Russia in 1644 if that's at all relevant. I tried playing without all DLCs and with all DLCs and it made no difference.

Sorry I don't have more information to give, it just seems like the game has trouble saving...

yes, i cant even save at all. the crash is related to corrupt save game, if you deleted the save game you should be able to save again.

they are looking into the saving problem.

Are you saying my Russia game is inherently corrupt, and I have to delete all my save files and start over? : (

no, you only need to delete the corrupt save game, usually the one with small kb.

you can just try to move the savegames to other folder outside your documents folder and see whether it helps.
If it isnt works, the cause isnt your savegames.
If it works, big chance some of your savegames are corrupt, usually 2 corrupt savegames will cause crash. try copy half of your savegames to save folder and see whether it still works.

I am not a dev though, so you might want a dev to give a certain assurance. meanwhile you might want to try my suggestion.

Hope it works out for you!

I started fresh as Venice, and I had no problems with either manual saving or autosaving, which indicates to me that the Russia game itself is corrupt somehow.

I tried uploading the save game with the attachment feature but it didn't work as a raw file or winrar, so if a dev is interested I'll try to upload it to a third party site if you like.

You can always upload savegames to a filehosting website and link them here. They are often too big to fit within the attachment space of the forums.

The issues sounds very much like other reported issues and it corrupting savegames. Please check whether the problem is solved after the next patch, if not you are free to report back of course
