    Track suddenly has lag months after release

    Since I downloaded the new DLCs, I wanted to go back to an older track and see what I could do with new editor tools. Going back on my old track "Perfect Storm," I noticed a lot of lag near the beginning of the track. I understand that I have quite a bit going on in the track (a lot of floating debris in water, explosions, etc.), but I made sure any lag I got while making the track was gone before release. Now, it seems to be inundated with lag, and I'm wondering if there is any specific reason that the track has gotten so bad?

    Also, has anyone else had this same problem?

    For many people the new and older Title Updates for the DLC have caused problems in many ways, lag, freezing xbox, freezing checkpoint etc...i don't think there is a way to fix it just to remake the track in near enough the same way as possible or start a completly new one, yea it sucks...

    I have this problem on my track Hypervoid, a really hard ninja, and after the last TU it lags around the 1st-2nd checkpoint.

    Dang, I thought it would probably be due to the DLCs. After going back through and deleting everything that could be causing lag, I got it to perform slightly better, yet I had to delete all rain and rain drop effects that I used for the storm. I guess I'll give up and just leave it alone.

    My tracks have awful performance issues now too. They were there before, but they were much less cumbersome, to the point where I was satisfied. The way it is now, I will never recommend anyone play my two trials tracks. They are an embarrassment.

    Fallen's Redemption and Agressive Descent*

    Redemption used to have one bad spot, with some more very subtle issues. Descent had a good amount of issues with slowdown, but not like now.

    Re: Track suddenly has lag months after release

    I always tried my hardest to eliminate all lag before i share a track and occasionally there are some very minor screen tears but that's it, now i have screen tears in all my tracks, frame rate issues and it seems to stop and jerk about a lot of the time i.e in mid air it might freeze for a fraction of a second and then continue

    iv also noticed this freeze jerking and a lot of screen tears in some of the old SP tracks now, loading takes forever, more xbox freezes, and crazy broken replays where the rider is either on the wrong track, naked or literally stuck in the middle of his bike.

    without any of these issues this game would basically be the best game available imo, BUT! sadly that's not the case with the huge pile of on-growing issues. The game is just too big and xbox CANT handle it.

    I think it would probably work better if the game was divided into 2 separate games, 1 game for the editor and 1 game for the SP game and TC. If you didnt have to have the huge editor and all its tools etc then i imagine there would be far less problems in single player mode and on track central. I doubt this is possible so i'll just have to leave it as "sadly this isnt the best game available and probably never will be"
