It seems that I've encountered a bit of a problem with the new editor version, @0x90 - the editor has started causing the game to crash.
Thing is, it didn't do this before. The ship option didn't cause any crashes, all the other options worked as advertised, and I'd been using this version without issue for around 3 sequences worth of play. Then, quite abruptly in the middle of play last night (~12 hours ago - around the time that the site went down), the game just crashed. Ever since then, I've seen some rather "interesting" symptoms.
Sometimes (most of the time now, in fact) the Editor just causes the game to crash on activation (I have nothing set to auto-enable upon activation). Sometimes it'll actually work, but cause the game to crash relatively soon down the line - usually when I'm travelling. My first few Fast Travels appear to be free, but eventually, doing so (or even walking between maps the old fashioned way) will cause it to crash. I've also found that it will now cause most cut-scenes to seize up; the game wont exit cleanly, and I can still hear sounds, but the screen will turn black.
I have the Join or Die Retail DVD version (which, unfortunately, still requires the use of that disastrous excuse for a content delivery system, UPlay). Given the tie to UPlay, I also tried the UPlay/Steam version, but unfortunately the outcome is the same.
I would've just chalked this up to the existing crash issues that others are experiencing and not said anything, but for the fact that it worked perfectly for so long; it would appear that something else is going on here. Any assistance in this matter would be greatly appreciated - I've come to rely quite heavily on the No Reload, Ship Health and Waypoint Teleport options!
same here, but with the steam version, crashes every time with the latest editor - no auto-activates or anything. Everything worked almost perfectly up until this version...
