Key points

Performance can be poor in the later game due to the increased save game size and the increased number of calculations that have to be performed.

Other information[edit]

Console commands[edit]

All the console commands can be found on the Crusader Kings II wiki. Only some of the debug commands are listed below. Discretion is advised when using the console as it is very easy to cheat with it (adding/removing traits etc.).
Console is disabled if playing in 'ironman mode'

Press ~ (or the equivalent key above Tab ↹ on your keyboard) or Alt+Numpad 2+Numpad 1 in-game to enter console commands.

  • fullscreen - Toggles fullscreen
  • clear - Clears the console

Issues fixed[edit]

Activation code length[edit]

If your activation code is too short for the code input box upon installation, fill the additional spaces with the character 'X', e.g. for a code formatted as AAAAA-BBBBB-CCCC you would input it as AAAA-ABBB-BBCC-CCXX-XXXX-XXXX.

Graphics card stress/overheating[edit]

This is a likely cause of a game crash if your system only just meets the minimum system requirements to run the game. With such crashes, usually your graphics card will be at fault. One way to reduce stress on your graphics card is to turn off some of the more system-intensive options.
Instructions[citation needed]
  1. Go to the configuration file location.
  2. Open settings.txt.
  3. Change draw_trees=yes to draw_trees=no
  4. Change draw_rivers=yes to draw_rivers=no
  5. Change draw_postfx=yes to draw_postfx=no
  6. Change draw_sky=yes to draw_sky=no

Notes

This will prevent the game from rendering trees and thus significantly reduce the amount of information your graphics card has to process, in turn reducing the overall load on your system.[2]

Multiplayer incompatible versions[edit]

Your game version is given by 'CK2 v<version> (<checksum>)' (for example, 'CK2 v1.06 (YYEV)'). After entering a singleplayer or multiplayer game, it's possible for the checksum to change on some PCs (for example, to 'CK2 v1.06 (ZYEV)'), while the others keep the same checksum. This won't allow you to play in multiplayer due to incompatible versions.Restarting the game fixes this problem.

Most mods also change the checksum, so you may not be able to join the host if you do not have exactly the same mods (including same version) as the host.

Alt-tabbing out and back in changes system resolution (Linux)[edit]

Usb mic boost software. Since the introduction of the new launcher, alt-tabbing out of the game and back into it changes the system resolution and consequently makes the game unplayable. This can be prevented by bypassing the launcher via a terminal command. The command, in its simplest form, is:

Additional arguments are:

  • -mod=$MOD where $MOD is the filename of the mod you want to enable.
  • -exclude_dlx=$DLC where $DLC is the filename of the piece of DLC you want to disable.

A third-party free software launcher is available that does these things for you.
