30mins into the game and i got the blue screen. I just bought 2 tlx 9000 and was hooking the truck to the new wilson pacesetters 🤷 seems odd...maybe it's that combo or the pacesetter?

Sorry Bud. :( I know how I'd feel if I was in the same situation as you. I'd be downright pi$$ed off. And the only help you'll get from Giants is delete all your mods and play the with the base game items. The only help I can see is delete all the mods that came out last Thursday and Friday, and try there for a while.

I had an issue with a save game early last week, I'm wondering might it be caused by whatever is causing everyone elses issue, anyway I went to load up the save an it would only load to about 60 or 70% an then put me back to the xbox home screen everytime, I hadn't installed any new mods an when I tried other saves with the same mods everything worked fine, also tried a new save of that map and no problems, hasn't happened since but my old save is now dead because it wont load anymore.
EDIT;
I was playing the map Greenlands

So I kept the pacesetters and did a different semi...went right to hooking them up and blue screened right away. Started again and sold the pacesetters and bought base game ones and hooked them and no issues. So either it's the pacesetters or it still has tk do with things on the main farm...as when I sold them all I had to hook them at the store away from the farm. I'll keep you posted. Maybe I fixed it 🤞🤞

So like nine days before PS4 players started having blue screen issues, so I doubt that is the issue. I am curious though, are any Euro players having this problem?

It is highly possible that one of the mods slot count is not configured correctly again causing you to overload the console memory, as that was the case with Griffin 1.1.0.0 sense fixed with 1.1.1.0 and 1.2.0.0.

The only way to test is drop mods one by one, but that won't tell you which one has wrong numbers being reported, just will free up more memory and be under the threshold. I would look at the mod and see how many details are on the model, moving parts ect.. Those will be the memory hog and if the slot count is particular low compared to others of the same detail, that could be the culprit.

However if you took the same mod with skewed slot numbers and ran by itself on vanille map the game will never crash because you will never hit the ram threshold. Although that excludes the case planter until its updated.

I highly doubt there is a problem with the map, but one can never be certain. I am also convinced it is not a conflict between mods. I checked log files with the mods in question and the logs are all clean even when using them together. So its seems it's more of a memory problem.

Hopefully when the next gen consoles come out all of this will be stories are grandparents tell us about. Well back in my day.....
Edit: memory crash problems only effect consoles and that does seem to be the constant

Players are having the issue on multiple maps, So I feel that rules out the maps as the cause.

I looked up the specs for PS4 and Xbox One and how the memory is allocated here are the numbers

PS4- (8GB RAM) 3.5GB reserved for operating system 4.5GB "guaranteed" available to developer software
Xbox One- (8GB RAM) 3.0GB reserved for operating system 5.0GB "guaranteed" available to developer software

Seeing as most of the crashes are PS4 that 0.5GB difference might be enough to crash it earlier
Which further supports hardware memory problems due to incorrect slot numbers.

Ok it just happened to me again, on my Lazy Acres save game. I only downloaded the new feed mixer released today. I don’t think it’s a mod or map issue but as aj said I think it’s a false slot count/system storage issue. A lot of maps have mods that need to be downloaded with them and I wonder if they are causing problems when not properly uninstalled.
Just a thought.

It happens to me too on Erlengrat, no mod installed. I did save the game manually and after it crashes.
I think it started after the Grimme DLC update (I didn't buy that one). I'm using a PS4 slim.

Didn't Giants do a patch about a week after the Grimme DLC's release?

Take this with a grain of salt as I'm not 100% sure, but I doubt there was another update a week after Grimme. Last time we got an update asap was after precision farming messed up seasons animals selling fiasco. I don't recall any issues with last update. We got it and then got last precision update for console and Grimme. At least that's how I remember it lol

Edit: unless you mean just one update but after Grimme. I'm certain it was before the Grimme but just one update. Sorry if I'm confusing everyone
