[jamiejay82]

im wondering what i need to do to stop the editor from crashing and not fully load as i can use fs17 editor without any problems https://youtu.be/XW--QOs_2c0 <<<< here is a link to show what its doing

my GPU Specs are

Card Vendor: AMD/ATI
Renderer: AMD Radeon HD 8570D

if there is away around this please DM Me as i enjoyed using the editor for fs17

The Editor in Version 8.1 is only for the FS19 Game
For FS17 you have to install the Giants Editor 7.1.0
to find on same Site as GE 8.1.0 Beta, look a bit up in list

I had a few problems with mine.
1. Check your log file

C:/Users/%username%/AppData/Local/GIANTS Editor 64bit 8.1.0/editor_log.txt

see if it gives any helpful error info.

2. try right clicking on it & trying different compatibility modes to see if any work.

3. Maybe try different Video card drivers. Try Clean Install option to remove old drivers.
Game was crashing for me when I first got it & I had recommended drivers. I had to go to the higher optional update to make it play. I have AMD R7 graphics. I'm using Radeon 18.12.3.

My Giants Editor was running but would have crazy rainbow colors & I could not see any of the models.
I had to change my profile setting in app to Very High to fix it.
You can manually change that before launching program if you want to try.

C:\Users\%username%\AppData\Local\GIANTS Editor 64bit 8.1.0\editor.xml

just make it match this at bottom of the file

<performanceClass>Very High</performanceClass>

Maybe some of that will help. Or someone else has other ideas.
Or maybe there will be update to fix more problems.
