I definitely agree. I hate paradox's website [for obvious reasons...]. This is easily in my top three mods for any game but 8.4 is unplayable because it, I can only presume, overloads the available RAM [even with the patch] and then just crashes every 20 or so minutes. I assume it has something to do with the RAM because if I play as the U.S. and only look at America, it'll last for hours, but if I scroll over the whole world and then open all the menus, it will crash. I have no idea if 8.52 is any better but different versions of this mod tend to have different issues. I'm hoping that is the case here. However, I cannot try it because paradox plaza is useless and will let me look at an HoI mod, it seems, except this one.

It is registered. My account is linked to my steam account. I can see my games listed on their website.

How did you get 8.52? Everytime that I go to paradoxplaza, it gives me a permission error.

When is 8.5.3 coming to moddb? I always get a permission error when I go to paradox plaza.

Is that sarcastic? How could you know that I am "so much better" than you at modding? To help, I would need to see the file that you edited and what you did. I would try change a value in common/static_modifiers as an easy check. For example, set the IC modifier to like 50 and see if you have a crazy amount of IC. I find it hard to believe that just editing a file will cause your game to crash; I would expect that some form of syntax was broken in your edit.

Oh, yeah. I forgot to reply to your last comment. I have editted common and units slightly (I want corps and higher hqs to give combined arms bonuses) as well as adding a canal from Masuda to whatever korean tile that is and that hasn't caused crashes (or, at least, I don't believe so).

I just don't get why its crashing now with these runtime errors when I had >400 hours with no issues (aside from the saving issue). It always gives me this error if I click "resign." It's pretty annoying. Also annoying is that the game.log doesn't actually store the info from the log (not BICE fault, it is paradox acting like children). I want to be able to create statistics for my campaigns and compare with the actual war but I cannot because paradox is afraid of a small number of people so that they ruin it for the rest of us. I hate this reasoning (especially when used by our government). I digress; I really don't understand why this mod is suddenly doing this runtime error but I can't play the vanilla game anymore because this mod is so much better than the game.

Second Note: The game appears to run just fine as China. Curious.

Note: Running in windowed mode makes it take longer to crash but, after a short while, causes menus to not load entirely and pop-ups to be blank beyond the buttons and flags. The game will still eventually crash with the same runtime error.

I've been playing Black ICE for a long time (at least since version 4) without much issue. I have the occasional crash while saving but deleting the logs always fixes this issue (so I delete the logs before opening the game everytime). However, this version causes me to get runtime errors like nobodies business. I'm playing as the US and, every ~10 minutes, I end up having a crash. I can usually predict when they are coming as opening a new screen (one I haven't used since the latest restart) or looking on the other side of the globe after playing for a while (like I said ~10 minutes) can cause it to crash. I am running the LAA patch so HOI 3 is using, typically, ~3800 MB of RAM. I played version 7 just fine as several countries. Any idea what could be causing this?

Additionally, the Kingdom of Daggerfall crashes during the Aldmeri Dominion's turn. This, however, is after ending turn 18.

I was playing as the tribunal and it crashed after ending turn 21. Specifically, it crashes during the Aldmeri Dominion's turn.

I made the second mod because I can now, very easily, apparently, win on the "Endless" difficulty and wanted to mess around with stuff now instead of playing the game for a challenge as there isn't one anymore. It just makes each faction get 100 points for traits instead of 65. If anyone would like a different value for this, I can tell them how to change it at will. It really isn't that difficult at all.
