************** JIT Debugging **************
To enable just-in-time (JIT) debugging, the .config file for this
application or computer (machine.config) must have the
jitDebugging value set in the system.windows.forms section.
The application must also be compiled with debugging
enabled.
For example:
When JIT debugging is enabled, any unhandled exception
will be sent to the JIT debugger registered on the computer
rather than be handled by this dialog box.
Which branch of the project are you using? Did you download the pre-release or the latest release?
I also get this error when using this release. I did try to use the latest release but I was getting another error (not the same one). I really want to use this, I can't stand the Paradox launcher anymore.
This error is so weird I haven't encounter it at all so we will have to try a few things.
First you do have the right release the pre releases are recommended right now, do not try to fix it using the last stable release cuz that's really old.
Second let me ask you do you have any mods installed or any dlc purchased?
Third can you send me a screenshot of the error and the error text but in a pastebin so it can be easier to read?
Forth it might sound stupid but did you unzip everything from the archive?
The answers to this might give me a clue to what's happening cuz it doesn't seem an code from error maybe just the environment is wrong like no dlcs or no mods
I have every DLC and do mods. Some of them are local mods. I decided to give this launcher a go mostly because the Paradox launcher decided it was time to kill all my local mods once again. It took a few hours to fix and still takes way too long to load for me to even consider using it again.
I'll send the error tomorrow as I'm not on my computer right now.
Also yes, I did unzip everything in the root HOI4 folder. Also worth noting that I can still use the launcher despite the error, but no mods/dlcs are available.
From the pastebin I think I know what the problem is so thank you, it will probably be fixed with the next release so you will have to wait a few days. If it's not then I have to look into it further.
Alright thanks! 👍
Could you make an archive with your mod folder from hoi and post it here or any other sharing website? (Documents\Paradox Interactive\Hearts of Iron IV\mod)
I only need ".mod" files so I can debug this issue properly.
Here you go : mods_debug.zip
Try this patch, tell me if it works cuz I don't get any error with your mods but I want to make sure: here it's a drive link cuz the upload size was too big.
@Xferno2 So this patch works and launches without any error. I can see my DLCs and mods! But whenever I enable a local mod, it does not take it into account.
@YummYume I think I know why, I will try patch it and send you the version hopefully that one fixes everything. The launcher was never optimized for local mods that why it has so many problems with that.
No problem, glad everything works now.
