    Arcade Editor crashes right away

    After I open the arcade editor and it says it's going to exit the game, it goes back to desktop and I see it start the editor, but then it goes away. I watched it in task manager and the process just ends, and nothing happens afterwords. What is going on? My drivers are current.


    Windows 7
    Alienware M17x 2014
    8gb ram
    Intel 8 core i7-4710MQ @ 2.50GHz
    GeForce 860M 2gb GDDR

    Installed the new nvidia game ready driver for far cry 5 and it made no difference.

    This upsets me more than any issue I could be having with this game, I literally only bought it for the editor, I missed making multiplayer maps on far cry and just wanted to get back to it.

    What hardware is in your pc, MaxCarbo?

    Don't you just love it when the support staff ignores your help thread? Makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside...

    Hey ONE_OF_HAM, we're really busy, so sorry if your post fell through the cracks

    Has your game updated? Please try restarting Uplay if it hasn't and verifying files (Uplay, Steam).

    I hear you. I partly bought it for the editor myself. I've got a GTX 1070 Gaming X, Intel i7 6800, 16GB RAM and running the game on a SSD.

    Thank you! I just verified the game files through steam, and the game is ok, it checked out fine. I was unable to verify through uplay though, the tutorial you provided wasn't very helpful, under properties of Far Cry 5 in uplay I did not find a way to verify local files.

    So your rig is much faster than mine, someone mentioned in steam forums that it might be the fact that my pc is dated, glad to see its not that, or else id be returning the game.


    Someone also told me to deactivate all overlays as well, because that fixed it for them. I deactivated steam, geforce experience, shadowplay, and uplay overlay but to no avail, still crashes...
