Game Crashing in Photo Mode

[Ugandan Knuckle]

Hello guys,

So my problem is that the game is crashing when I tryna take a photo in a race for example.
I can reproduce the issue very often because its happening 9/10 times .

Any solution ?

I'm having the same issue

Turn off the Ray Tracing.

Yeah, Turn down or off Ray Tracing will fix this, been a problem for quite some time now, It will crash the video driver, and since I like to overclock, you can imagine how much of a loop this stupid bug had me in lol.

Thank you guys.

Literally a minute ago someone in the stands must have snapped a picture of me with their cellphone and caused my race to 100% crash. Everything damn thing on earth makes this game crash.

Hi all. I'll admit, hearing that ray tracing and photo mode crashing the game was a new one to me, I've heard a lot of the other reasons the game crashes.

I though...what the heck, lets try it...and...nothing. I couldn't get the game to crash. I turned all the settings up to Ultra, including ray tracing, then drove around a bit, and then took some photos of my car...and everything worked fine.

I don't know, maybe I got lucky and got the perfect version of the game, cuz I have tried just about every method I have found on here to crash the game, or get crappy performance, and nothing does it. :( I'm sorry people are having issues, it sucks, and I'm trying to do what I can to help figure stuff out, I'll keep looking, and if anyone has anything else to try, let me know, and also, if anyone would any info regarding my pc or the game from me to help figure it out, I'm happy to provide. :)

You know, RT is not crashing the game for me too, but I already read that it is causing this particular crash for some players. RTX 3070, 1440p, even on Extreme I can use the Photo Mode in any situation.

Yeah, it just seems weird that a lot of these crashes almost seem random, but some people who have them can replicate them no problem.

One of the reasons I'm trying to collects as much info about the different crashes as I can.

I'm on an Ryzen5 3600, RX6700xt at 1440p

Well at least there is one way that you can still play the game, but I'd like to keep seeing why it crashes, or at least testing out a few things.

Just to double check, all your drivers, and windows updates are current?

And with the ray tracing, does it matter what level of RT you select, Low, Medium, High Ultra? or do all the settings for it crash? I only tried mine on Ultra, I'm going to test the other settings now.

Update: I just tried all the different settings (both changing them in game as well as at the Game start screen) and even set all the games settings to Ultra....and no change, could take photos just fine...

This weird, but I'm happy to keep helping however I can.

Yeah Im not sure really whats going on either, Its the same for me, It works fine, then suddenly it just doesn't agree with it and crashes in photo mode, I normally get it to crash at the beginning of a race I go into photo mode and crash, Right now its fine, but I've also had it work fine for a while with RT on for a while, its a weird one.

I not have the issues, but if I use Nvidia ANSEL during photo mode make me crash to desktop. You need update GPU driver and integrifty game files

I didnt have the issue, but since last update I have it ...

Turning off RayTracing solved the issue

Seem to happen to me if I got a lot of cars in one photo, I normally open photo mode right at the beginning of a race and it would crash, other times if out by myself or 1 other car, it works fine, or it crashes as well. Though I haven't touch this game in a while so idk if its fixed for me or not.

Ohh, hadn't even though of trying photo mode at the start of a race! Going to do that now and see what happens.
