    Black lake bug

    Hi,

    Just encountered a new bug.

    I maxed out a grid after copying some stuff. Suddenly all my lakes turn flat and black. But could not change the lakes back to what they were. Even after removing stuff from the maxed out grid. The lake type option was just not in the menu anymore. Making a new lake same result.

    The only option was to reload the last save, losing work ofcourse. But when i tried that loading froze and the only option was to reboot my ps4. And got the report the problem message after starting up again.

    Got a big scare that my 3 weeks of work on this map was gone. But lucky me, the map was still ok after starting up fc5 agian. And could continue on my map with the lakes back to normal.

    Guess have to warn you guys with maxing out the grid.

    A bit worrying that. Is it just me or do other people agree that maybe there was not enough testing pre-release? Why do we have errors and problems every time a game comes out?

    hi truesurvival, this happenened to me allso! What happenened with me once is that i put a lake near the edge of the map and resized it beond the map border. It was fine for a while but then the lake water went flat black as yours did, and i too could not enter its properties! Not sure if that is the same thing you did or not though

    Well guess its an anomoly, maxed out the grid now more often, with just one item instead of a whole section copied but the until now it hasnt happened anymore. Fingers crossed.
