This particular save game worked fine for me until last night, when it crashed and it crashes every time since then. This is what displays in the log file:

ERROR: ld.so: object '/home/nickg2794/.steam/ubuntu12_32/gameoverlayrenderer.so' from LD_PRELOAD cannot be preloaded (wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS32): ignored.

If anyone has any idea how to get the game working again I would appreciate it. Thank you!

  • Does it crash when loading other savegames too?

    Do you have any mods subscribed? Because the error is a rendering error, which could be caused by a mod. So I would unsub all mods and if that doesnt help, reinstall the game, if that doesnt work either, reinstall or update you graphics card drivers

  • The error is a red herring. See: wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Steam/…. Steam defaults to loading 32-bit libraries for its game overlay even for 64-bit games and then fallbacks to the correct bitness. You should try to do a gdb/debugger backtrace instead to see what is actually going wrong (probably some sort of segfault/crash that does not appear in the log).

I would suggest you to disable/remove all the 3rd party mods that you have installed to your game and test it out by starting a new game. I had a similar problem some time back and following the same steps worked for me.

Do let me know the result.
