All my backups crash at midnight, someone have an idea of where to go to solve this problem?

is that with a new game or a save game from 2.5.7?

Yes indeed it is an old backup, I did not notice that the game had been updated, problem fixed :)

I can't even launch the game it just crashes. I'm running no other mods, just black ice pls help :(

try deleting the user/documents/HOI IV folder. You also might need to check your subscriptions are not corrupted when downloading. Try starting BICE without the add ons to check quickly.

I have a crash on February 1943 when the Trotsky event occurs. I have loaded opengl and debug in version 2.5.9a in a clean game. I am in windowed mode in 1920x1080 resolution.

I believe i found the solution to my problem. I ran the windows compatibilty troubleshooter on HOIIV.exe. I am running the game in windows 8 mode and it did not crash from a saved game at the Trotsky event. The interface is is different running Windows 8 mode though.

I tried to find the launcher spot to put the -opengl and I cant find it. I get to the general tab in properties and then I get lost. Can anyone help out?

So is their a fix about the crash when germany claim memel?

I'm also having this issue, incredibly annoying

I'm playing with Italy but continues to crash in January 1939

People claimed this might have to do with some GER NF decision/event

Yes, it happened after memel

Japan, Feb 11, 1939 keeps crashing for me. Like others are reporting it seemed to start happening after Germany claims Memel. I was able to get around the initial crash date (sometime in January) by loading the save as Germany, letting time run past the date, saving, and then re-loading as Japan. I could play for another month or so but now it keeps crashing.

This log popped up:

I noticed the exact same thing, and used the workaround you mentioned but it still continuously crashing.

The early 1939 crashes are due to a bug with the load_oob command used for GER free historical armored divisions. It’s been quite a pain apartmently to fix because BICE uses load_oob extensively for many countries. It’s planned to be fixed in 3.0.2, just waiting for them to fix ALL of those occurrnaces. I haven’t heard an ETA from Mav who was the one working on it.
