been getting crashes, playing on windows which is a complication. almost everything i tried to do to fix it is a failure. im gonna need more help.
can anyone explain what the problem is and how I might be able to fix it?
Yeah ist when your PC block the Launcher
When you open the Launcher your PC should give out an Warning
Klick on it and then Disable it
Simply means you are using 3rd party contents (pirated dlcs or the game)

I didn't pirate anything
I was playing without a problem 3 days ago but since yesterday this keeps happening but I am able to play but can't load or safe any game
hey whenever I try to run my game with a large mod, my game crashes just before it can get to the main menu, any ideas? (also please use the reply button to help me find it and thank you pre-emptily)
whenever i try and play vanilla hoi4, it keeps on crashing to desktop in the middle of a game. Ive tried clearing cache and deleting and reinstalling, but nothing works
Can someone please help me? My problem is that I don't have any tank icons except the "main" tank. Same with the No Step Back DLC, I don't have any tank icons for SPG, tank destroyers etc. (The DLC is disabled in the screenshot as I wanted to see if it worked without the DLC).
in no step back you have to design your tanks
and you can change the type of tank
Yes, I know. Even when I add hotwizer as a gun and change the type of the tank, I can't change tank icon to SPG.
did you change it in the drop down menu?
What do you mean?
when you design the tank, at the top above where you select the type of gun
did you switch it to spg?
send a screenshot
It's in Polish, but you can trust me, it is the SPG
I mean I'm not sure, cause if you're just looking for the 3d models, then I think its a dlc you have to buy
the axis/allied armored pack I'd assume
which is why I don't really worry about the 3d models, cause its a waste of money
Yeah
Is the "players lagging behind" thing only a thing about internet, or is it also about which kind of drive the game is downloaded on?
And is there any way for my friend to not make it 1 speed with this problem, because he has great internet
The players lagging behind thing is about how fast the host's computer is
If your computer has a slower speed when you play Hoi4, it will lag behind
He has a pretty fast pc thogh
Maybe ask him to close some other apps. that helps with game speed.
oki, thanks :3
I'm not an expert on game speed but closing apps works for me
Disocrde? These scams can at least be a bit smarter
having an issue where an ally is still giving military support to the country im at war with
can i fix this somehow?
"Bootstrapper Error - Chouldn't start launcher" I can play the game without opening the launcher but i can't open the launcher by any means. I reinstalled the game and the paradox launcher but it did not help. Anyone got any tips or solutions?
So, back to the discussion of how I get my Descriptor files for my mods,. I can tplay Road to 56 and Kaiserreich. Someone said it is because of me having a new version of Hoi 4, but my friends can play them, and I cant
it probably is just the new version download an old one and try it
does anyone know how to fix this?
No solution yet provided by pdx
...
well
that kinda sucks
I can't playing hoi 4 europa 4 and stelaris
there goes all my money
There is another way
But this is not solution but adjustment
.
Does anyone have Minecraft? if so can you help me
sir this is a Wendy's
I can't open it, and when I'm trying to uninstall it, it just says it can't be deleted because it's open
I would ask the Minecraft discord server but it's full so I can't join
Omg
Hey boyh this is not minecraft server only hoi4
and what would be that adjustment?
I don't mind losing saves or anything like that
Yea but where should I post it if the Mc server is full
can someone help me fix this bug? Whenever I hover over focuses or descriptions of anything in the game I get this.
anyone ?
Hi guys, can I ask which settings are best for hoi iv? I mean vsync ON/OFF, fullscreen/borderless etc.
thank u guyssss
@left adder depends on PC
I myself use v sync off with borderless
But itās personal preference
Are you using the real version of the game?
Try deleting all hoi4 related files and then reinstall the game
This includes the steam files and documents files
I am using the real game and i tried reinstalling the game it did not work.
Where did you get it
š
So, I tried to fix my Descriptor files missing in my mods by changing version, it did not work. Idk what to do anymore. I can't play kaiserreich nor can I play The Road to 56.
I fixed it, after 4 days or so of trying, woooo!!!! (I did a clean uninstallment of the game by uninstalling the game, and deleting all the files in the steam folder
i'm playing on laptop
specs: 2k monitor (2560 x 1600), ryzen 7 5600h, rtx 3060. - Lenovo Legion 5 Pro
Are these specs enough?
how could I set it right?
cuz i don't know if i have that right settings
I switched my Game version to 1.1.0 to play a Mod but then it says https://gyazo.com/bd98d2133fa8bf599d4b0b69cf98457f
<@&616302857917956130> Sorry for the mass-ping. I have a member in Helping lounge 2 that is having an issue with his game I have personally never seen before. If I could have some assistance, that would be amazing.
There is nobody in helping lounge 2
@wraith idol Can you please help me? (sorry for ping)
@wraith idol
im not sure why but the game is just completely frozen no matter what, i have tried a few thing in the launcher and steam itself but nothing has worked so far. a while ago i tried the demo and had a good time with it, but now it does not work. im not sure going on.
I have found that pressing the windows key lets it do things. like if I click a button in the main menu and then press the windows key it will then work, but freeze as soon as I go back to the game.
i have got it to work by using fullscreen borderless
do you have the good version
did it lag?
It doesn't put the warning symbol
Just at the start but it happens everytime
if you go to the page of steam of the mod there stands what version you need
here you can select versions
you go to here
right click
and then properties
I'm checking current hoi4 version
do you have it installed properly
Just yesterday it started to crush
Like after 15 mins I was on it
And it wasn't the first time I was playing that
do you have enough space on your disk?
you had this right
Where
Dw
Current HOI4 version supported: 1.11.5 open beta patch (The mod WILL crash if you play it on the release version!)
What's the release version
How to open this
go to steam library
Ye
by the left side there are all your games
if you right click on the hoi4 logo
there opens something
Ye
1.11.5
1.10.8
Neither
K
Dw
I understood the problem (my version)
I'll wait for updates
Thx for help btw
You donāt need one
np
I switched my Game version to 1.1.0 to play a Mod but then it says https://gyazo.com/bd98d2133fa8bf599d4b0b69cf98457f
Itās because hoi4 is a 64 bit game before 1.7 I think itās 32 bit which doesnāt work
Click the other launch option
Wdym
steam has options when you click play
do you need better internet to run multiplayer or a better pc?
I was wondering will the steam deck run hoi4 well if at all?
Both
I ussually have no problem with multiplayer, but when I play with a certain friend the game desyncs no matter what whenever he tries to host. And when I host the game he cant ready up at all. And he has the same pc build as me. Which of these issues can I fix?
What is this and how do I fix it
reinstall xd
One question, i installed the mod tno, it's normal that all de names are like PAR_francisco_franco
And all the focus trees as well
And finally, how do i improve the performance? Its very lag with tno
what is your game language
tno is very laggy
you cant do much
except
Spanish
turn down graphics
change it to english
I can't even stay in a game for 3 minutes XD
Oh, thanks
for me, 1 year in tno = 2 hours irl
bug
Try clearing cache, verifying files. Don't worry to much about it MD is a lagfest and highly unstable due to bloat
How can I clear the cache?
Going into the main game files?
Thanks
Do I press clear user directory?
yes
Thx!
Whenever i subscribe to a new mod it doesnt show up in the launcher
guys
I found a bug
Basically
France declared on me (germany)
I bypassed the focus of war with france while I was doing it
and then canceled it because it hadn't finished the bypass yet
leading to a crash
Hopefully I didn't lose any progress
I have learned my lesson there tho
First of all, hello dear Hearts Of Iron administrators, I am also getting this error and unfortunately I do not know the solution. I would be very glad if you could help.
New bug
so
when i pick a country
it seems
that myself is the enemy
but i am not
even when i am a neutral country
I fixed it
thx
I did vichy france decision and it happen again how can i fix that ?
I want petain back as a leader for vichy france
Hi, when I start the game in fullscreen mode, the buttons in the menu are interacting in a wrong way with my cursor.
For example the button is in the middle, but mouse can interact with it (highlight and press), when its like 3 cm to the left of the button itself, any suggestions?
My desktop resolution match the in-game one, so I have no idea whats going on...
It's currently broken so you can't at the moment
what happened ?
They forgot to implement the new character system
what is the console command to give yourself trains.
omg
Downloaded The Great War: Redux from TOP-Mods.com, and when I launch the mod everything is fine, except there is no leaders for countries and everything is a file name. Any way to fix?
(1.10.1)
My hoi4 screen is very blurry, both on map, font/text and the main page. But the launcher also needs an update, but says the connection wonāt let me update and yet everything else connected works. If anyone knows please DM me or @ me. Thank you!
It may look decent on camera but in person itās awful
How come you don't take a screenshot
he plays hoi4
@tepid pecan another one
I have i9-11900 and 16gb ram ddr4, any idea why the game is slow for me in 1942?
like 1 day takes like 2 seconds
and I saw other youtubers and their game was much more faster, and they have worse specs
check your task manager
your running to many programmes at once or theres a bottleneck in your system
try to reduce CPU and memory usage
jesus you got one hell of a pc
Put game in windowed mode. for me it still shows up full screen, but it reduces lag ten-fold
Achievment
Better than the Szent IstvƔn doesn't fire - It seems to be a common problem online too, I was wondering if there was any way to get around this and get the achievment?
Okay
So it should be a little bit faster, right?
I was thinking about a mod, but I don't think it would make a huge difference
Portrait bug how can i fix that?
Anyone know an actual fix for the "black screen crash on launch"? I tried to load yesterday and it kept crashing on launch so I reinstalled after every fix online failed and it started working again. Now I tried to load up this morning, and it gave me another black screen crash.
a ""modern tank"" without canon lol can you fix that?
Make sure that you lunch the game with right settings and reslutions.
sometimes openning with a lot of mods can cause the game to crash.
you have no step back?
no
steam say that all file are here
what button?
Yummy
@ancient orbit
try to remove and readd it in production screen
all ik is that it does have a cannon, just a jpg error for now
worked+
?
No
jpg issue
so same problem like the portrait bug?
what is yummy
I don't have any mods
Alright I'll check those out when I get home, weird that it all of a sudden doesn't work anymore
āMake sure that you lunch the gameā
I meant launch for fk sake lol
Yea ik but you asked
Was typing on phone fat fingers.
Yea yea I understand
so im tryna play with 2 friends
and his game crashes
when he starts the game
he gets this in his crashlog
weird
his error text file is empty
can anyone help
he's getting this in exception file tho
Unhandled Exception C0000005 (EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION) at address 0x00007FF77BA65C0E
@dry agate he might have conflicting mods on
0 mods
Strange
I cannot launch the HOI4 launcher through steam, I've tried verifying and changing versions but it does not work.
Anyway to minimize the chance of desyncs happening? I only have the issue with one person, we assume its his internet but we cant change his router settings\
anyone wanna give me a tutotrial?
Yeah bro which part of the game you need help with?
Try to pause the game if he/she hot joins also clearing cache might help.
pausing doesent matter, it will imediatly desync if we unpause. also I cant host when I playwith him, for whatever reason when I host he cannot ready up in the lobby
Maybe try verifying game files both of you?
we have, we even re installed the game, deleted all game files, made new saves, all the stuff
Are you by any chance using any mods?
none of us have any mods
installed or subscribed to
Then it's internet connection from one of you that is causing the problem.
that sucks
So there is no workaround
Getting a better connection is one. try another ISP.
He cant change his network setting due to an incompetent family member, and since neither of us want to wait for a new router, we will abstain from playing mp
thanks for the help
Anytime buddy.
Nudge tool keeps crashing when I click something in database
I tried turning off my mods
But that doesn't work

Hey I now I've asked this here a couple times now but either I can never find the answer in the chat, if you have some advice for my issue please use the reply button; I'd appreciate it.
Whenever I try to load a large mod (over one GB) it crashed when the game almost gets to the main menu; at least I think that's the cause. It crashes with Dawn of a new century and Road to 56 Beta, but not with Great war Redux, Fps map, or RT56 for 10.x.x
Yikes that sucks
The PC or laptop is not that straong either that
Or you need to update your Windows
what are your specs?
It's a fairly new laptop,
It's got 16 Gigabytes of ram (15.8 usable), 8 (i think) intel i7 processors, and a 64 bit OS/x64 based processor
I'll check that, I think I've actually forgotten about those
Yeah thatās good
Maybe because the mods are incompatible
I wasn't using them all at the same time; And I'm pretty sure I tried to launch it with no other mods
Hilfe!
I installed HoI IV, but when I got in to game menu, I have noticed that mouse pointer is misaligned with the buttons. I tried to disable Vsync and set refresh rate to 60, it fixed the mouse, but the game became stuttery D:"!
Which version of the game were you using
Most mods arenāt compatible with 1.11.1
huh, that definitely caused at least some of the crashes; I'll check that out soon
alt tab and tab back in
I think, that I did that and it didnt work. But I will give it a try, when I will be off duty
alright, I alsways get that problem when I launch the game. I do it and it always fixes
I am trying to go into multiplayer games but my game version is different and I don't know how to change it

can anybody help me
I have the same issue
I canāt talk in any hoi4 game chats, Iāll press enter and my text will disappear
same problem here
in the lobby?
Yea
if you don't have the same dlc as the host then thats why
its a glitch for some reason
it might be cause the host didn't have the same dlcs
bruh is there anyone that can help
sure
try to clear your cache in launcher settings, it's at bottom there
then verify game files
if that fails delete the game on steam and go to \Documents\Paradox Interactive\Hearts of Iron IV and nuke all the files in the folder
directx 11 better or opengl? rtx 3070 16 gb ram i7 11700f
opengl is from like the 90s, directx 11 much newer and will work much better with your system
how can i revert my game back to load my old singleplayer saves?
i think i played this save when i had no internet. not sure if linking back up to the net or updating the game made my singleplayer save unplayable?
(Im copy and pasting form a post i made on Steam discussions)
So i've had this problem with HOI4 only the past week or so and im not really sure where to begin looking to fix it. All my drivers are up to date, i have no mods installed, verified the game intergrity, fresh install. Yet the problem still persists.
My Specs are:
CPU - I7-9700k
RAM - 16GB DDR4 3000MHZ
GPU - 1060 6GB
Storage - Moved the game between my HDD, my SSD, and my NVME drive and still get the same problem
Does anyone have any ideas?
Wait soo whats the problem ?
Oh wow i forgot to actually type the problem my bad, basically while playing HOI4 my computer will randomly restart
as far as i can tell it doesnt produce a crash dump either
That does not seem like a hoi4 problem
Most likely hardware issue, when launching it have taskmanager on standby
watch CPU and memory especially
If you do regular self maintenance on your PC, check that all parts are properly back in place
and does it happen to any other programmes?
the last things you could do
re-install drivers for GPU and CPU, check your PSU
and check the temperatures
i used to have a laptop like that and it was to do with CPU going like just a casual 105 degrees
From what i could tell, my memory was fine, so i guess ill re-install drivers
I checked my temps after the most immediate crash (computer reboots in a few seconds) and my cpu is sitting at 43 so it couldnt be that
And its only been happening on Hoi4, even other paradox games are fine, but thankyou for the help
I managed to find a fix to my problem, ill post a link to the fix on the very off chance someone else encounters a similar problem

hi there, im playin hoi4 on ubuntu. with latest update i cant open the game. if i choose play on launcher, it gives an error next to play choice. or if i choose skip launcher from steam, game just drops on ideal state. have u faced that kind of problem before? mods or dlc disabled. is there a way to fix it with out reinstalling the game?
Yes, but only when I change the version of Hoi4 to an older one.
i keep it updated but tried to downgrade by betaversion , it did not work too
How can I increase the number of my special forces?
yo guys, i need help with launching hoi4
when trying to launch hoi, this error comes up
basically, the installation package could not be opened
- when trying to launch the launcher installation package manually in the files, the same error comes up
Yo guys, I cannot play multiplayer with others because my game lags on speed 3, is there anything i can do to resolve that?
Buy a better PC or lap top man
Or If you all ready have one I suggest that you should clean it or do some updates on it
Hiii, for some reason, when I start the game I have stutters as I move over the map and I dont know why, it shouldnt be because of the hardware:
i9-11900k
RTX 3080 10 GB
32 GB RAM
Any ideas on how to fix this? Its rather annoying and unplayable...
Does this happen while youāre paused?
Yes
Do you have v sync enabled?
Or do you get any screen tearing
Normally it shouldnāt happen
Honestly I would verify files or reinstall
Or are you using any mods?
Its fresh install and no mods
suort
I'd just verify files sometimes some weird stuff happens with install
I will give it a try, but I doubt that it will help...
when I will be off duty

How to boost fps on maximum speed?
maximum speed is the maximum speed your pc can run
if you have bad fps there then idk
- remove countries by annexing them with another, e.g brazil get them to annex all minors
- get a mod that reduces lag, fps map or performance fixes etc
- play on lowest settings
you can. right click hoi4 on your steam library, then go to properties, and into betas, and you can pick which version u wanna play in
btw is the launcher working yet?
Odd, I do that and the most I get is 1.9.x
bro they fucked up their launcher hard
Nope it ain't for me either

In order to cover my time here
Thank you it worked

Anyone ever encounter this? It happens anytime theres major combat in the game, but it makes it unplayable
Any mods on?

Hey can anyone help me, my HOI4 keeps crashing at July 15, 1936
reinstalling the launcher works
If your running mods they might cause issues.
So I am running into these two errors
for dll I go online and put them in
Now it is giving me this problem
Any solutions? I verified integrity, reinstalled the game, deleted documents
etc etc nothing is working
Maybe run as an admin?
Can't even see the error message.
So I'm using panda dome and it blocked some hoi4 files
Damn thing ven blocked Minecraft
Anyone know hoe to unblock files
what does the triangle thing mean and how do i fix it

sorry if thing ping is bad, but I'm trying to resurrect a dead conversation; I am trying to run Rise of Nations (Dawn of a new Century it also seems to go by), a mod version 1.11.4 on game mode 1.11.8 (because steam doesn't give me options) with no other modes and most of the dlcs (can specify if need be); got any other tricks?
How do you go back to the first ever version of hoi4. Mine only shows till 1.8
outdated verion
guys in game normally when you have mouse on anything in focus tree it says what it gives i have mouse and nothing
@ancient orbit
Have you tried restarting HOI4?
Damn, uninstalling and reinstalling should fix almost anything.
Does hovering over other things like portraits or the terrain work? @ancient orbit
It's this launching the game failed error
I literally can't play the game
I've tried going in as an admin
Uninstalling all my DLCs
uninstalling, re-installing the entire game
I legit got nothing
Do you have any mods active Ser MouzƧsiet?
I've never played HOI4 before so nope
Ah darn.
legit just got it and its done me over like this lol
If you're using steam, are you given the option to skip the launcher when you press play?
yeah
I've tried it, it just doesn't load
nothing happens I just get sent straight back to the desktop
If you look in C:\Users\USER\Documents\Paradox Interactive\Hearts of Iron IV\logs then you should find the logs.
That might hint towards the error you're experiencing.
With USER replaced by your account user name.
Computer user name.
I need some like hands down step by step aid lol
Maybe this would be better then.
I can't guarantee it will help, but it does have step by step troubleshooting.
no
i dont even see what me advisors give
and how much pp i geting
Then your fonts are messed up.
how to fix that?
This might help.
okay tysm
Best of luck!
thanks!!
@light pivot okay so, the issue is that the Launcher works fine, I just can't launch the game from it
there's barely any resources I can find on how to fix it, it's just that its a "seperate game or windows problem"
Ah whoops sorry about that.
Maybe this?
This is for EU4, but the same engine can have similar problems.
looks like a UI scaling problem, did you modify the setting? if yes try to bring it back to 1.0x
i need help
say
can i stream?
there is some sort of sign that i dont understand
and i cant play ironman
do you have mods? mods are usually incompatible with ironman
what is the sign you dont understand?
try to check if moving the mouse around the hovering tab appears even if the mouse is not directly on the focus
it is
try to set video options at windowed and resolution at 1920x1080
the problem is related for sure to the new ui scaling option that is still experimental
real pain with new monitors with high resolution
still same problem
can you post a screenshot of the sign you don't understand please?
have you tried reinstalling your config files?
yes
when im entering the achievments it just looks like this
I am producing lots of anti air, why aren't they getting used in training?
You can tell by the icons or hovering over it
#ask-for-help-here also theyāre reinforcing troops in the field
yeah but to get the titles i propably have to reinstall or smth
Yea then reinstall
have you solved the problem? if not: go search the folder of Hearts of Iron IV under steam, it should be on your hard disk where Steam is installed for this path: C:...\Steam\steamapps\common\Hearts of Iron IV\gfx\fonts
and delete those two files:
\gfx\fonts\cg_16b.tga
\gfx\fonts\cg_16b.fnt
then go on steam and do a check and repair of the game
and it should fix your font problem
if still it doesnt, delete all the files in the fonts folder, and then do a check and repair on steam
to do a check and repair, click right on the game in the steam library list and chose "properties" and it opens this window:
then chose local files, and click on "Verify integrity of game files..."
i solve the problem
i install the older version
then update
and its solvet
but thank you
help?
Well lets answer the obvs question. Do you have 2 graphics cards?
nah i fixed it but thanks for the help any ways
Hi,
I have a mod that I uploaded before but I don't have the original mod. However I have updated a copy and wanted to upload it
How can i upload this modified version to the original one ?
Does anyone know how to fix mods saying the path in the descriptor is invalid or something?
Also not the steam version of the game
Your most likely running the game in a laptop and the system uses the integrated graphic card to run it instead of the dedicated graphic card.
What model is your graphic card?
no
ur wrong i reinstalled my graphics drivers and it fixed itself
Anybody know how to troubleshoot mod installations
Hover over the sign it'll tell you whats wrong
Im having the same issue with the Millennium Dawn mod, how did you fix the issue?
Im sure this is a common issue but i can't find anything on this. Everytime it hits 24:00 it pauses for about 7-10 seconds and its just really annoying. anybody know how to fix this
I installl the older version of the game and then update it again
Really
outdated versions
can i get help which one is 1.11.4
u cant get 1.11.4, mods for that version tho should rn fine on the latest
I am playing with friends and this one friend keeps lagging behind and has 70-100 mbps speed. his ram runs at 70% and has 12 gb ram and 70% CPU AMD Ryzen 3. I have no clue to whats happening. am thinking its because he recently upgraded from 4 to 12 gb ram.........
the upgrade will have nothing to do with it. Probably just lacking cpu power
I have the same cpu and my computer runs it well........
Anyone from <@&616302857917956130> available rn?
?
my friend here is having some trouble with his game files
ah maybe @mellow shoal
Did the person unsubscribe and re-subscribe to the mod?
yes
uhh I'm not really that great with tech stuff, but whats up?
We think we got it sorted
oh, sorry about that
Restart the game
already done that
I've had this ongoing issue for many months now, I've tried reinstalling the game (onto current disk/new disk) and verifying the game files. Neither of which has worked. I also have failed to find any help online that works.
Upon launching the game, it runs normally and has no issues. However, the Installed Mods option doesn't load. Nor do any of my mods work. I've uninstalled my mods and tried redownloading them, but to no avail. So I was hoping someone within this discord could help me so I can enjoy my mods again, because frankly I get rather bored of just Vanilla HOI4.
I also receive this error when on the main Launcher screen saying Some active Mods are not present on disk:
When opening the Mods Screen on the Launcher, it goes to this blank screen and will not open anything regardless of how long I sit on it.
Does anyone actually know a fix for this?
yes
did you ever
get a
notification
from windows anti virus
saying trojan
sometimes it says that its a virus
but it is not a virus
so just allow it
Yes, HOI4 is allowed through all my anti-virus programs
lmao yes
<@&616302857917956130>
whats up?
my hoi4 keeps crashing on a certain date
- i dont have a launcher for it xd

h ok
?
uuh. are you sure there arent any other mods on at the same time?
have you tried uninstalling the mod and reinstalling it
ok tysm
if that doesnt work. you can validate game files
@radiant vault it semms like i cant find the mod
is there an esier way to look for it?
besides searching for it?
Hey. my game is lagging really bad but my internet is good, no idea what is happening
here is a screenshot of my internet speed
@echo musk It could be due to your hardware. Do you fulfill the minimum requirements for the game?, or even better the recommended ones.
The game works fine in SP and whan I play with my friend in MP
but yesterday and today it is lagging bad when there is a lot of people
It could potentially be your connection to the host.
I have no idea what you mean this is the wrong channel and you should probably ask in dms. If youāre in contact with him ask him yourself what he did before he was banned. My simple answer would be: probably breaking the rules to such a degree he was insta banned or eh just broke enough to get banned (3)

do you have any mods on
i turned off all of them
have you tryed reinstalling or alteast verifining game filles

Hi I keep getting this image every time I click play hoi4, I reinstalled the game over 7 times but it didn't seem to work. I'm doing this on a Windows 11
Hello
How can I make the game run better when going into the mid to late 1940s?
The game becomes EXTREMELY slow and my CPU would be sitting at 30% usage
Try getting a mod where it limits south american nations with divisions, they've usually spammed infantry to hell over there, yet do nothing in the long run.
does that affect achievements?
Always check for ironman compatible ones if you want achievements.
is there any way to increase CPU utilization?
No idea, apologies. I'm more experienced with optimisation mods.
i have the same issue
yeah me too
do you have any mods enabled?
I have same problem with Parcas1 even without mods game crashes from launcher and skipping launcher is impossible. Does someone have solution?
Older versions of game doesn't work too
yeah same iāve tried everything i think it might be a windows 11 problem or something
Can someone please help me. When I try to load the game from the launcher it says "launching the game failed" I feel as though I have tried everything and I need help
yeah do you guys play on windows 11 or 10?
because i might know the root of the problem
and if you play on windows 11 check if you play on home or pro
because i think itās a windows thing so windows 11 home wonāt launch paradox games
While modding found these files with .pak extension. Any way I can open it.
Programs like 7zip do not work :c
try to go to steam and verify integrity of files
and if that doesnāt work then you arenāt the only one so their will probably be a fix in the future
Ok so is there anyone who can help me with 100% disk usage?
my game keeps crashing and sending a report but only at this specific point in the game
@potent heart soo do i click play everyday to see if they fixed it?
are you using a mod?
my game crashes while game is at "precalculating naval distances"
does anyone know how i can solve it?
try to see what you have running in the background and turn everything of that you dont need (watch out you dont stop something like drivers) and you can delite some stuff and go to taskmanager and then go to someting like Startup and turn stuff off so they dont automatically start up (and therefore dont run in the background)

And youāre supposed to type it where it says name
my friend just installed the game and is getting "launching the game failed"
