#

why doesnt it just use more lol

next fjord
#

The reason it can’t use more is because a CPU isn’t a single giant pipe, but rather like a lot of small pipes. A CPU has ‘threads’, which are the pipes. HOI4 can only fully utilise one pipe at a time, and the others just partially. This is because of a multitude of reasons.

ancient orbit
#

thats stupid

#

so its just bad optimization?

next fjord
#

It’s a bit of that, but also some info simply requires other info to be calculated before it can be calculated

#

And HOI4 is a game all about numbers, so there’s a lot of calculations needed

#

It is multi-threaded to an extent, but not muxh

ancient orbit
#

hmm

#

okay

#

thanks

#

does clearing my cache increase performance or just loading times?

next fjord
#

There is definitely room for optimisation, and the devs have tried to improve it every update

ancient orbit
#

because after 1942 for me its almost unplayable

#

its so laggy

next fjord
#

What CPU do you have?

ancient orbit
next fjord
#

I see. Well, it might be that HOI4 day speed is just slow in general

ancient orbit
#

true 😂

next fjord
#

You could try performance mods like the performance map, but I don’t think there’s much players can do about performance

vestal totem
next fjord
#

The others just partially

#

It is multi-threaded, but regardless one pipe is used more than the others

acoustic bridge
#

Which operating system?

#

macOS?

#

Windows?

#

Force quit steam

#

Command option escape on Mac

#

Or Hoi4

#

99% success rate

#

Your game will be saved

#

Or update steam or Hoi4

#

@ancient orbit

#

There is a difference between quit

#

And force quit

#

Do force quit

#

Are you doing quit or force quit?

#

Did you try reinstalling steam

#

Like everything

#

Deleting files

#

Please elaborate

#

Like send a video

#

Like you can’t exit the game?

#

Correct me if I am wrong

acoustic bridge
#

Does it really matter?

#

Just click stop

teal solar
#

Well

#

Im about to reset my computer operating system

#

Dont ask why its a long story

#

Either way

#

Is moving hoi4 to a diferent memory disk also moving the mods?

#

Or will i have to redownload them

#

?

dusky thorn
#

can somebody help me out with this idk how to fix it to get my game running

scarlet wind
#

then uninstall them then try

dusky thorn
#

do I have to fully uninstall them

scarlet wind
dusky thorn
#

ok

dusky thorn
scarlet wind
#

then remove all mods in that folder and put them somewhere else

dusky thorn
#

ok deleted all of them

dusky thorn
#

what about the C++ and .NET thing @scarlet wind?

scarlet wind
#

try a clean install

#

(you can ignore the parts about kaiserreich if you don't have that mod, and then you can readd your mods after the fact)

dusky thorn
#

thanks ill try that out

playing open beta
crash reporter does not work

sage ember
#

The game will just randomly crash mid game for seemingly no reason. I uninstalled the game and reinstalled it, and even went so far to unsubscribing from all of my mods and stuff. It only started happening after the last update. Anyone know whats going on?

sage ember
sage ember
steady locust
#

yeah its the latest road to 56 update thats screwed majority of peoples saves, you can rollback version but i dont think it 100% fixes the crashes only temporary

#

i think the play is to just wait for next R56 update/hotfix or play vanilla

sage ember
#

That would explain a lot

#

A shame tho, was having a good Ethiopia game where I was single handedly defeating the Axis

acoustic bridge
#

Let’s go

jagged onyx
#

I can't launch the game for some reason, I have tried verifying the integrity of the files and I even installed those things

jagged onyx
#

I have made a play set where there are no mods at all and it's still not working

near anvil
#

@jagged onyx open propeties on steam

#

You can change it from there to launch straight into game instead of launcher

jagged onyx
#

It worked! But can mods still be played without the launcher?

acoustic bridge

at least 6gb would work

Hello. Linux user here. Every time I open HOI4, the launcher crashes after 3 seconds. Then it restarts, then crashes after 3 seconds again. Clean reinstall, no luck. Anyone who could fix this?

Help!

I got a horrible crash with hoi4. I cannot continue my netherlands campaign. I annexed indonesia and belgium. Meaning i got lots of overseas terretories. So i have build lots of convoys. However. When opening the campaign today i got this.:

#

When i press spacebar or continue to time. The game crashes.

#

I think its due to having -221 convoys. And the game cant handle that i think. I dont know why i got -221

#

Is there a place or way where i can report is as detailed as possible?

#

I had this before. When playing sweden. had to abandon that campaign too due to this bug.

serene crane
#

Every single time I try to launch vanilla hoi4 I get this error:

I've tried everything, I've re-installed the game, I've cleared the cache, I've verified integrity of files. I honestly don't know what to do.

Sameee

#

HOI4 is so laggy

#

Sometimes

next fjord
#

Hmm. Well, there's many reasons for HOI4 performing weirdly and unfortunately it's not always a very diagnosable and fixable issue

haughty maple
#

ye i dont even want to play the game anymore lmao

ancient orbit
haughty maple
#

agreed

ancient orbit
#

Id still play in 15fps

next fjord
#

I get like 15-20 fps as well, but the days still go by fast so I haven't cared much

haughty maple
#

i dont even know how much fps i get, ill check tho

#

its just my game feels laggy and is so slow

next fjord
#

Could be a weird driver, could be a game update, could be that HOI4 just doesn't like you

haughty maple
#

i updated my pc last night too

#

steam overlay doesnt even work💀

Buy a good pc

or upgrade your pc

pallid belfry
#

not sure where the right place to ask this is, but can people with the mp host role give timeouts? 👀

ancient orbit
#

And use these commands:

Weather

#

The simple solution is to go get a 250 dollar PC and add a gtx 1050ti

haughty maple
ancient orbit
#

Because I can tell it's not in the lowest graphics

#

And open task manager and give me your specs

haughty maple

I have a 31.3mb crash when I try to play black Ice mod. I've verified files and redownloaded the whole game

#

My mods are Black Ice , black Ice GFX, player lead peace conferences and precise buffs

#

It crashes when I load the game itself

#

Not a save

#

It's something to do with not being able to locate meshes

haughty maple
#

how do i improve fps in hoi4? it keeps dropping to like 20-15 but when im paused i got 60-70

ancient orbit
#

It’s a map game

#

You stare at a map

#

Fps isn’t important it just needs to be stable

haughty maple
haughty maple
ancient orbit
#

If it ain’t stable you need lower settings

#

Like a lot of settings aren’t really needed either imo

haughty maple

#

Shadows can go, 3d units and buildings I think

Uuuh ye idk

haughty maple

alright ill disable those

I’ll look it up for you in a sec

haughty maple

#

Probably not, but if you think it's not very playable anyways you can try going down to 4 speed or using the FPS boosts Daniel mentioned

haughty maple
#

ye im going to try the stuff me mentioned if that dont work ill play 3-4 speed

#

This guy is a clown 🤡

ancient orbit
#

the great war mod keeps saying it need the 1.13.5 version, thing is there is no beta with that number, and when i click no beta it still doesnt work. I tried unsubscribing and subscribing again, but still same issue.

#

My game often freezes completely however the laptop itself keeps running and I can open the task manager and all but it's annoying

#

In the task manager it shows that the game is responding and all but I'm reality it's not

#

The music that I was playing suddenly drops and I can't do anything in the game it's like the laptop is going to blue screen but it's just fine

Also are you using any mods or not

I'm no expert but that's the basics a tech helper needs to help

this may be the wrong channel for this, but i had to reinstall hoi4 because the checksum was not working properly, and i unsubscribed from all of the mods bc steam was taking over an hour to load them, then it just froze, claimed it was still downloading stuff, so then i tried to uninstall hoi4 again but it didnt let me, so i uninstalled it from my files, but steam still claims its in my library and says its validating (its not). what do i do? <@&916727924093239336> pls help me

No lol that's just part of the game

If yes then try verifying file integrity

Btw to fix an incorrect checksum you need to clear user directory in the launcher settings

#

yall my game crashed and now my general card thingy disappears everytime i try to boot up the save again

#

and no i didnt disable the hud

long sapphire
#

and the worst thing is that i have this problem on EVERY game without mods or whatever

#

so im basically cooked

#

money well spent for the time it worked tho 🤑

long sapphire
#

i did

surreal fiber
#

try clearing Documents/Paradox Interactive/Hearts of Iron IV

long sapphire
#

alr

#

it only does it like way further into the game tho

#

like 2 years or so

#

so im not rlly sure if it would works 💀

#

gimme a sec

old swan
#

It's over for your saves 😂

#

I had similiar stuff with TNO where leader portrait and hud got corrupted on all saves, so only solution was to delete them all

long sapphire
old swan
#

😂

long sapphire
#

im slowly starting to realize how jmuch shit i lost

#

💀

#

i shouldve finished owb before this shit happened

#

it took so long just to defeat the ncr and legion as the sierra enclave

old swan
#

well, at least your saves ain't corrupted any more

long sapphire
#

true true

#

hopefully it doesnt happen again

#

bcs i genuinely started tweaking the night it happened

old swan
#

I lost a lot of progress in TNO just like that too. I got germany to 1982 and had to delete everything

old swan
#

I made it a complete superpower and all just got deleted

#

I had 50k planes airforce, 5 mil army, and like 300 ships most of which were capital

long sapphire
#

i planned to use all that to invade every nation that wasnt my puppet before that shit happened

old swan
#

typical hoi4 bugs be like 💀

long sapphire
#

btw how do u get that expedition to Hawaii as the Sierra Enclave

#

like i swear that event just popped out of nowhere late game

old swan
#

I'm german main

long sapphire
#

ah

long sapphire
# old swan I'm german main

the only problem i have when i play germany is microoing the eastern front too much and not rrealizing the allies broke italy and are currently penetrating thru my ass without me noticing 😝

old swan
#

I simply sea lion UK and allies are only existing in Africa at this point. Eastern Front is pain if I do an offensive in it and not try defensive

#

I found out that draining soviets of equipment is the best way to deal with them

#

I make 3 division type which are motorized, infantry and tanks, and I make them 30+ width

#

Soviets just unable to breakthrough at that point

long sapphire
#

btw is it worth it to make like support divisions

#

take for example divisions composed with arty or rocket arty with motorised to increase that org

#

i saw it in a disaster save once and thought it worked prtty well

old swan
#

well, I definitely add artillery batallions to every division

#

I also add anti air

long sapphire
#

same

#

just with aa support tho

old swan
#

I use support companies like radio or other not bad companies

#

Sometimes I add anti tank support companies

long sapphire
#

like tf they do

#

ive seen no positives nor negatives to using it

old swan
#

They just increase initiative linked to division engagement

#

Some people say it's useful, some are not

long sapphire
#

i guess i see how that works

#

but wont recon do the same job?

old swan
#

recon is kind of intel gathering

#

They gather intel and slightly increase combat stats as well as helping counter tactics

long sapphire

Game keeps crashing after a while in every game I play, I thought it was beacuse of the mods I was using so I tried turning some of them off and then play again, but it still crashes no matter what I do. Can you help? <@&916727924093239336>

verify integrity right

whole smelt
#

And yes

whole smelt
dusky thorn
#

files r validated btw

whole smelt
#

That doesn't reinstall the launcher

#

Bcs its seperate from the game. You're on windows right?

dusky thorn
#

oh

whole smelt
#

Then you have to go settings, then apps, search for "paradox launcher" and delete it

#

Then just launch HOI4 again and it'll reinstall the launcher

dusky thorn
whole smelt
#

In windows settings

#

Should've clarified that before probably

#

ok uninstalling

#

nah nah it's cool I don't know much on this stuff lol

Might be an issue that you're missing either visual c++ or .net framework then. You should find where to install those in the pins

After you've deleted it try launching it again to reinstall the launcher

is it the "paradox launcher v2" file?

It should be in the local folder in appdata tho. Not the roaming one

I joined my friend's private session to play with him and my other friend, but it keeps freezing and not letting me do anything. The time moves forward for them and then it pauses the game for them so it can catch me up. Me on the other hand I'm not able to interact with anything. I'm only able to move my camera around. I'm not sure what to do to fix this.

agile arch
#

Yeah, his friend here. Every time I and my friend Blueish were in the same game. The time would stop for him, and it would force us to pause the game due to a player being behind.

tame merlin
#

I Uninstalled the game and then re installed it but it keeps crashing and showing this screen. And it's at the time of Christmas where I was gifted 3 DLC but I can't even use them

#

And if you could DM me on how to fix it because I'll loose the message from here

you know anything about tech?

mellow shoal
deep raptor
#

even tho it has 8 GB, of ram

#

windows 11 etc

mellow shoal
#

Like chat kat said, it’ll struggle. Hoi is mostly CPU’s, so ram isn’t that much of a concern

deep raptor
#

you don’t know it

whole smelt
deep raptor
#

or is it somewhere that

whole smelt
#

thats your CPU

#

it'll run HOI4 but probably not at more than 3 or 4 speed

deep raptor
#

i’m sad

#

i’m gonna cry

#

this is a christmas present

#

and i’m not a kid 😞

whole smelt
#

Dw it should still run it. but it'll only be a little bit slow

deep raptor
#

i’ve waited years to play

#

@whole smelt thank you

#

and i’m sorry for my attitude

#

have a good day

deep raptor
#

sorry

#

@whole smelt

#

KAT!

whole smelt

Yea it should run HOI4 fairly well

deep raptor
whole smelt

Yea

deep raptor
deep raptor

just asking

whole smelt
deep raptor
#

xya

whole smelt
next fjord
#

Just because HOI4 has a lot of CPU limitations doesn’t mean it won’t also massively struggle due to a GPU limitation

#

iGPUs are already crappy, let alone Intel ones

surreal fiber
#

Yeh on some trashy integrated graphics, GPU might actually end up influencing performance ^^

deep raptor
#

mine is trash?

#

just say it

#

i won’t be mad

@surreal fiber

It seems likely

deep raptor

it can run stuff

i guess

idk

just please stop

so you

#

No comment

Uuh not the place to discuss that

#

We roast everyones PC equally

deep raptor

but can it run

#

@surreal fiber

BE SERIOUS

#

I AM TALKING TO YOU

#

UR ACTUALLY MAKING ME ANGRY

#

HOLY SHIT

surreal fiber
#

Calm down

deep raptor
#

OK

#

i’ll try

#

i’ll try

surreal fiber
#

If it can run thats all needwd

deep raptor
#

“no one likes you”

#

“that’s why you have a trash pc weirdo”

#

@surreal fiber

#

just

#

stop

#

so can it run

#

just answer

#

“yes but slowly is fine@

surreal fiber
#

whether it can run HOI IV? that is very easy
How well will it run? Im guess you might be stuck at 4 speed or something

deep raptor
#

you don’t have my computer lol

whole smelt

I was stuck at 2/3 speed on my laptop

But this is one should be significantly better

Well, do you have Avira?

If you use OneDrive to back up your data to the cloud or to sync with your other computers, you might have noticed that rather than using the default Windows folder locations under C:\users\username, OneDrive will create its own folder under your user folder. You might also notice that things like your Desktop folder is missing under your user p...

I use avira

And have my pdx interactive folder in onedrive

Right, cause it requires special permissions in most cases I've seen

Never had trouble

tame merlin
#

Well now it says this

#

I sorta fixed it but now it just crashes

tame merlin
#

<@&916727924093239336> is there something that I still may have messed up?

next fjord
#

I don't think so. Maybe just run through typical troubleshooting methods like reinstalling and clearing cache. Anomalous crashes are pretty hard to diagnose

tame merlin
#

Ok, I'll come back to it later and take another look

tame merlin
#

I've tried firing up the game again but it still crashes after I get to the hoi4 home menu

south flint
#

I launched the game multiple times. I redownloaded the game multiple times. I cleared the download cache multiple times, but i still get a crash each time?
Can this be because of my ram usage? When i play the game i use like 80% of the ram and then the game just randomly crashes??

Hi! I am having trouble staring Hoi4. I get the message "missing executable". I have watched countless tutorials, and tried stuff like deleting the game, verify integrity, delete cache, restarting the pc, and etc. The older versions are playable but not the new one.

AYO I need help, malenium dawn cannot run, when I try to do it bugs out my whole pc and crashes it requiring me to turn it off and back on.

I cannot even play

Let me send a video

If your wondering in the first part I ran the Great War hoi4 mod to show that malenium dawn is the only one I have doing this

#

@amber gorge

amber gorge
#

Oh alright.

snow hare
#

if you wanna know how

#

just click on the playsets

orchid crystal
snow hare
#

should bring this up

#

then click add new playset

#

and boom

#

name it

#

then add the mods

amber gorge
#

Isn’t that the same or is it different

snow hare
#

the same

amber gorge
#

Hm

snow hare
#

this is just an example of what it should look like

amber gorge
#

Well I will still try it anyway

snow hare
#

except you'll have millennium dawn in there

amber gorge

#

But I will try the second option and see if it makes any difference

#

Aswell as anything else suggested

btw if you play the great war redux i'd get player-led peace conferences and stuff

amber gorge
#

Oh ok

snow hare
#

quick question,

amber gorge
#

Yeah?

snow hare
#

do you use steam workshop or the paradox mod page?

#

cause I use the steam workshop

amber gorge
#

I tried both but I use steam

snow hare
#

yeah ok then

#

that's fine

#

i'd probably use steam cause some mods aren't avaliable with he paradox mod forum

#

which is a lil sad

amber gorge
#

Ye

snow hare
#

i've got a lot of mods installed so.

#

i have a lot of playsets

#

and also if you do install many mods,

#

playsets are good to keep things organized

#

cause going through one to enable just one mod can get a little bit uhm

#

annoying

#

tldr, use playsets

#

glad i could help

#

gonna go sleep now

Things I have done to try and fix it:
