This is a beta hotfix for 1.8.0 that primarily addresses Multiplayer stability and performance loss from compressed saves.



To use this hotfix, go into your steam library, right click Europa Universalis IV, click the 'BETAS' tab and select the 1.8.0-hotfix-beta option from the drop down box. If you can't see this beta option, try restarting Steam.



This is a BETA, so you use it at your own risk!
