MacOS crash frequently

[howlingsoulx]

Gladly found Mac version for this game, but it crashes frequently, like once in 10 mins.
Mine hardware is M2 16GB memory. Even in this pathetic 10 mins, it is like volcano hot.
Bought a laptop cooling pad. It cooled down the laptop, but could not help the crash.
Anyone knows how to fix this?

MacOS user here. I'm sorry to hear you are having problems. I have the same set up M2 32ram and it crashes regularly. All I can tell you is that the game was stable for several years but after a recent update things got wonky. I think its going to take some time to fix the error. You should post you complaint on the paradox support website. It is a fantastic game but right now its got problems.

Same issue on M1 Pro, the game was stable up to 1.10 (before Legacy of Persia).
When the update was released it crashed after several clicks on different characters. WIth most recent patch there are fewer crashes, sometimes you can play for an entire hour (lol). Still unplayable though, reverted back to 1.10 and waiting for new fixes.

Roll back to the 1.10.2 patch for now. it is under betas in the game properties in the steam library. Having the same issue with Linux, They messed up stability for both platforms in the current patch.

Same for me on M2 Pro 32GB since legacy of persia, when looking into crash logs it seems related to source code runtime exceptions. There's nothing we can do except hoping for a bugfix patch but I wait since few months and developers seems to not care a lot about.. They already got our money.

I'm having the same issue on Linux. Every so often you click a character portrait and the game crashes. Super annoying on ironman mode as you can lose several minutes of gameplay

Same issue, M1 Pro 32GB. The bug has been verified at the Paradox Forums since November but a fix hasn't been released yet: https://forum.paradoxplaza.com/forum/threads/game-is-crashing-after-1-11-0-on-macos.1609128/

I haven't been able to play since I updated my Macbook to Sonoma - its been months and I would really just love to play.

I've had some success running it with bootcamp, but Mac side is unplayable due to crashing. Too bad, when it first came out, it ran great, with the exception of long loading times. It's pretty clear that paradox isn't real interested in fixing it. I'd be interested in hearing how others running intel Macs are fairing.

Hey all, just wanted to add to the issues with Mac.

Running 13.6.3 on an Apple Mac M2 and have been having this crash issue any time I click a portrait for literally MONTHS. I cannot believe that Paradox have yet to address this issue in this time frame. It's gone on so long that I'm actually considering requesting a refund for the game along with every DLC.

[Yurtie Ahern]

Also, has anyone else experienced an issue where they start the game and hitting the WASD keys doesn't move the camera? Nor does hitting the ESC button work? Sometimes it happens sometimes it doesn't

Just wanted to add, that I also have the problem with crashes from time to time when viewing character portraits, running Kubuntu 22.04. I guess, it is still not fixed. Hope there'll be a fix soon.

Same thing with me crashes are infrequent but almost always crashes when clicking on a character portrait from another menu. Its getting frustrating now, hope paradox at least knows about it

[the_itouch]

[Kallenin]

Still bugged

[extremekilllcam]
