The game crashes out of nowhere

[Yüksel]

I play eu4 on MacOS, but when I select a country in HRE, the game always crashes on the same date after 3-4 years, for example, if my saved game crashes on December 18, 1447, no matter how much I exit and enter, or even if I play the game in 2x instead of 5x, it still crashes specifically on December 18, 1447, and this is very annoying or if it crashes on July 5, 1448 in another save, that saved game file always crashes on that date, but this only happens when playing in the HRE. Crashes also occur when playing with other countries, but every 50-60 years and when they re-enter the game, it does not crash specifically on the same date

My pc
-Macbook Air M1 (2020)
-8B Ram
-256gb ssd
-latest version of macOs
-latest version of steam and game

mods i use
-Theatrum Orbis Terrarum for 1.30+
-UI a La artemis

Can you post the exception.txt from the crash? It is probably one of the known crashes on macOS

How do I send it? Can you be a little more specific?

[grotaclas]

You can just open the exception.txt with a text editor and copy&paste its contents into the forum reply. Each crash creates a folder in "Documents/Paradox Interactive/Europa Universalis IV/crashes" and the exception.txt is in that folder

Your game is crashing when a country enacts a decision which changes the tag. Crashes when changing the tag are the most common crashes on macOS in recent versions. These crashes have been reported since at least version 1.36, but so far they have not been fixed

If the game crashes due to the tag change of the countries, why doesn't the game crash on a specific date when I'm playing outside of the HRE? I mean, I don't understand why it crashes in the HRE.

I think that it is a coincidence that it crashes for you while you play in the HRE. The crash has some random element. That's why you can often reload to get past the date of the crash. The "Caught signal 11 (SIGSEGV)" means that eu4 crashed, because it tried to access memory which it should not access(segmentation fault). If there is some other part of eu4 at that place, it won't crash(or at least not immediately).

You could try to run the windows version of the game with the whisky app like the following forum comment suggested:
https://forum.paradoxplaza.com/forum/threads/game-crashing.1706837/post-29919187

Please let me know if that helps, because the person who suggested it didn't seem to have tried it with a crashing save

[Neverwinter]

Same here. Mentioned fixes don't work. Problem started after latest update to the game.

Macbook Air 2024 M3
16GB
Latest version of OS and latest version of Steam and game.
No mods
Plenty of space on SSD.

It crashed even when I was playing with France outside of HRE. I got really angry this morning. I saw that there was an update for macOS. I updated it. After the update, I played for 50 years and only crashed once

Have you tried to run the windows version of the game on macOS with the whisky app? If that doesn't work, can you post the exception.txt from that crash?
