problem loading game; it had been working fine

[Desert Fox]

Game crashed when loading map logic; states there was a virtual file exception; I have checked my own game cache several times and no files missing, and I have directx 9c and the C++; the game was working fine, then a few days ago just caput; any help would be appreciated; thanks.

Navigate to your hoi3 installation in the steamapps folder.
Open file "map".
Within that file is another file labelled "cache".
Delete everything within that folder.
Restart your copy of hoi3. The cache will be reconstructed. This may
take a few minutes.
After that exit and restart the game. It should be working normally :)

no luck; I appreciate the help; still gets the same error

Try going to the Cache this way (win7):Libraries/My Documents/Paradox Interactive/Hearts of Iron/map/cache...then delete the contents of that folder.

Hopefully that will work :D

Thanks, that one worked for me at least. :-)

That did the trick; thanks for the help!
