What platform do you play on, and how often is your game freezing? I'm on PC and I haven't experinenced many crashes in the editor but it's happened a few times, usually when there's a lot of complex stuff on screen all at once.
My game has frozen a couple of times while browsing through the example tools in a busy section of track so now I just avoid that section of the object list. I've also noticed that secondary driving routes can be especially unstable. Objects like checkpoints and portals that either point at or lock to the driving line don't seem to play nice when a secondary route is involved.
Best thing to do is save after every few minutes. I know it's a pain, but better safe than sorry. I had this issue few times, losing about 1-2 hours of work. Now I save after every 15 minutes or after making something complicated. Save before testing as well. I still make multiple saves at end of editing session, just in case 1 gets deleted again. Thankfully, that hasn't happened since the update.
I am still waiting for the fix to the player and bike items not staying equipped. It's annoying having to equip items again every time I load the game.
And the gear crate bug sucks. I stopped playing tracks, challenges, and so on, until that gets fixed. If I don't earn crates, why keep playing to level up.
Both of those issues are currently being investigated. You can see them noted in our Known Issues Thread Here.Originally Posted by OLD_RockMan Go to original post
DEADPH1SH, for the freezing, I would reach out to our Support Team for further assistance.
Just had my editor soft lock on me for the first time on the xbox one x, decided to hop over here to check if others were having the issue too. Popped out of the testing and the game locked up while the bikes smoke and background animations were still playing, so its like it just locked up my controller for no reason. I feel your pain with losing out on lines/decoration. Already doing everything I can with this editor and track to make sure the game doesn't act up on me so it's frustrating when it still does![]()
I had a similar problem with a track i was building, it was constantly freezing, especially after testing, the complexity meter was way higher than i thought it should have been. It got so annoying I switched to another track, then i spotted a shadow way off in the distance and went to investigate, what i found was a large custom object that i had saved to my favorites(a couple of hundred objects/decals, way more than i should have saved to favorites) I thought this was strange seeing as i hadn't constructed it in this track nor had i ever spawned it there. I realised that every time i scrolled past this object it auto-spawned in the same position. I returned to the first track and checked in the same position and sure enough there it was, i deleted it and discovered it had spawned there 20+ times, the track isn't crashing frequently anymore and the complexity dropped from about 75% to 10% This may be relevant to you or somebody else out there with the same problem(Probably just me though) The objects were spawning in the centre of the map under the terrain, the only reason i spotted it was because i had all game world objects/terrain/etc disabled.
Hey guys, if you're still experiencing issues with freezing, I would recommend reaching out to Ubisoft Support.
So that they may look into this further.
