region turning black, no population

[fasr32]

hey guys, i have a question.. i was wondering if this was a bug or not but when my character passed away.. (i was playing as the emperor of brittania) some of the regions he owned turn black like it lost its population and it didnt have a character in it, its like the same as siberia. can you guys help me with this and is there another possibility i can get the region back?

Can you post a screen shot?

Sounds like a corrupted save.

Doesn't need to be. Richvh had such an instance, and the save wasn't corrupted.

Whenever this happened to me, the game always crashes afterwards.

sh1t i forgot to screenshot and had to delete the save for it lol, but yeah it did happened and my succession laws were gavelkind still.. do you guys think that it might be one of the reasons?

This happened in my Bulgarian game too, but with the Byzantine Empire suffering from it. Are you playing CKII+ by any chance? It occurred in that mod for me. Anyway, what worked was giving away all lands of the emperor's demesne to his heir. Not a pleasant solution if you're playing the affected country, but it could be a decent last resort.

(Also, no, I don't think succession laws have anything to do with it.)

For a quick console command fix, press ~ and type:

give_title [COLOR="#00FF00"]characterID[/COLOR] c_[COLOR="#00FFFF"]countyname[/COLOR]

If you need to find a character's ID, type

charinfo 1

and hover over a character's portrait.

I think this bug was reported in the Bug Reports forum. Something about two characters inheriting at once. And Born in Purple.

That won't work LOL. What the man is describing is the same as when the developers add a new region and you try to play with old saved games. The commands won't work as the region isn't where its supposed to be. Some save file editing might work, but my attempts were futile (you have to change congruently in several places and got tired of it...)

I had the same issue in an earlier Byzantine game. My demesne became black and I could no longer select those counties. They were no longer part of my realm and were ruled by no character.
As this happend with a game where I patched about half way through, I figured that was the cause and started a new game.
