That means you've run out of data for the game. Usually a mod issue.

Try the skyve mod and run the compatibility checker.

I went through and did everything with the Skyve mod
Everything runs much better, but I'm running into the same problem
Do you think it could be related to the in-game time? This is my oldest save going by in-game time at around 2051 (my monitor is broken so I can't read the exact date)

You should never send a boy out to do a mans job. You'll eventually learn that compatibility check lists like skivy are not your friend. They are created by "vanilla" players for other players who are too lazy or inexperienced to do their own research & testing.

Loose skivy and re-subscribe and enable your old save file like you would a downloaded Shared file and see if that don't get your old game back up and running.

When skivy first came out, it automatically installed into my Main Menu. That's the only time in ten years that I ever had an issue with an old save. Got rid of skivy and replaced the asset it rejected and everything has been running just fine ever after.

If you need skivy to do your job you really have no business trying to play CS.

It has nothing to do with time itself, but you may have conflicting mods trying to alter the same code at the same time and flooded the data array until it crashed the game.

but you say it is running much better? but it still crashes? if only one of your saves is crashing, it just may have gotten corrupted, and the game can't fix itself, so the saved game may be lost forever from corruption of data.

For a test, Maybe try launching the game with the -noWorkshop flag to disable all workshop.

From the steam Library page, go to CS1 in the left sidebar, then right+click CS! and select properties. Now just add only -noWorkshop in the box labeled "Launch Options".

remember to type -noWorkshop exactly as typed. copy and paste -noWorkshop if you need to.

Now just exit the menus, and just launch CS1 from the left sidebar and say a couple of prayers.

Please know I use Skyve. Along with loading screen mod, they are 2 mods I often run before launching the game, as between them I can see updated and outdated mods, and Skyve suggests alternatives.

I play with 130 mods and about 3k assets, and about to hit 10k hours. One bad experience is not sufficient for me to form an opinion. I could have messed up something myself and not take responsibility and instead blame the wonderful amazing Skyve mod.

I mean the saves that do work are running better than they were before

Yeah that broke literally everything, any other ideas? if not, that's fine
