With the new Anbennar version released, you can add your MP lobbies to GSMPD

Hey everyone.

I've posted this before, but with the big new version dropping I thought I'd chime in. If you are hosting a server or starting up a new campaign for the release, I wanted to share a free tool to help you fill your roster: https://gsmpd.gg

I built this platform specifically to help people find and organize dedicated grand strategy campaigns. Hosts who already list their lobbies on the site have told me it gives them a significant boost in player traffic.

Anyway, do check it out and if you find you like the site I'd appreciate if you could share it with your friends.

A few Vic3 MP campaigns starting soon

Hey everyone.

Now that the new patch feels as bit more stable for MP after all the hotfixes, we have a few multiplayer campaigns starting soon and there are still open slots if anyone is looking to jump into a game.

In fact there's one mega campaign with a roster of 30 starting later today, with only a few countries still open!

They're listed on Grand Strategy MP Directory along with a bunch of other ongoing and upcoming campaigns across all Paradox games:

A few EU5 Multiplayer campaigns starting soon

Hey everyone.

I know a lot of you guys didn't like the DLC, but a few multiplayer campaigns are starting soon and there are still open slots if anyone is looking to jump into a game.

New York Times 1866 issue, for session 2 of our Victoria 3 campaign

We had an eventful session in our MP campaign; we're playing on a lobby of 20 people therefore every continent is packed and very interesting.

The Great Wave dropped and it's a mess. Our MP community had session 1 of a 20-player lobby (Vanilla modded for balance) and we had crashes and OOSes almost from the start, so we started making a list of 1.13 features that at the moment are un-usable in MP. Here it is:

Any use of Ship Transfer treaty article, be it between two players or with an AI involved. Severity: CRITICAL, it would immediately crash not only the culprit but our entire lobby.
Piracy in general seems to cause stability issues. Severity: HIGH, the player engaging in piracy is very likely to OOS.
Naval invasions, transporting armies across the ocean. Severity: HIGH, will very likely cause the player to OOS.
Trade route interactions. Severity: HIGH, likely to cause the player to crash.
Running a diplomatic play against the AI. Severity: HIGH within the first few days of a Session/Rehost, MEDIUM otherwise. It will likely crash only the person running the play.
Any naval interaction not listed above, or generally just using the ship building interface. Severity: MEDIUM, had a couple of people OOS just trying to build ships or move them from one place to another.
Clicking on ships. Severity: MEDIUM, can cause frame drop or OOS.
Zooming in and out too much, even if the player has a good computer. Severity: MEDIUM, had our UK player OOS numerous times due to that, he had to keep playing without zooming in. Nobody else had that issue.

Feel free to add your own, I can edit the OP.
