As of 1.14 none of the previous patches are working for me anymore. Game crashes as soon as I click the play button while in the 'initializing game phase'. this is occurring in 1.10-1.13, any idea why this is occurring. It's happening trying to load saves and even starting new games, ironman and non ironman. 1.14 starts fine.
Previus Patches no longer working

Thankyou so much, this partially solved the issue, deleted the file and the game loaded fine. I changed my video settings again and crash. Now I just gotta work out which is the culprit, or if I just can't change video at all.
Ok, so after re-deleting the .txt file, I've discovered the new problem had nothing to do with changing the settings in-game. I am able to play non ironman and ironman on cloud, but as soon as I click local the game crashes.
Hmm it should work in old versions, but if you run new version again you will need to redo the procedure.
Verify that custom_mapmodes in settings.txt contains at most six numbers (rather than ten), because old versions could only handle six on load for some not-thought-through reason. I.e. that part of file looks like this:

Code:
custom_mapmodes={
24 1 4 3 2 5 -1 -1 -1 -1
}Ok then it's different: Try moving all save games in Europa Universalis IV\save games to a different folder, you can put the ones back that are version compatible.

Quick question @Chaingun
Does the mods I have installed like better fog of war mod from stream automatically update as soon as the mod maker updates it? Or do I have to reinstall?

It should update, that's kind of the point of the Steam Workshop.
That said, some mod makers seem to be unaware of this feature, and create a *new Workshop entry* instead of the existing one (e..g., "MyCoolMod NEW VERSION UPDATED FOR 1.14!!11!!"). In that case, Steam won't update your old mod, of course.
Darn... Welp, at least I can easily search for the mods I previously had, I love using Arumba's keyboard shortcuts and it seems like he updated it.
So I updated from 1.11 to 1.12 and now local ironman is working, so hopefully its resolved itself, or should I assume the problem is from a 1.11 save? Either way I can live without 1.11 for now. Thanks for all your help Chaingun!
Also mapmodes had 6 numbers
custom_mapmodes=
{
0 1 4 3 2 5
}
