Can't access garage

[Fr0d0 Swaggins]

I ran into an issue recently, after not playing the game for quite some time, where I could not access my garage. Clicking the garage door did absolutely nothing (I had cars in it). I deleted my saved game and started completely over. Just now, I bought a car from a barn and sent it to my garage. I went to the garage to take a look at it and, once again, I cannot access the garage. It's the same issue as last time. Clicking the garage door does absolutely nothing. I don't even get a menu. Clicking garage on the map doesn't do anything, either. Any ideas?

Have you tried an integrity files check here on Steam ?
If not, try that first.

Then modded car ? or vanilla car ?
Besides cars, do you have other active mods ?

It seems it's a pretty regular issue on your side.
If you were using mods, I would start a brand new game AFTER having unsubbed to ALL the mods, play a few hours using either a cheat engine or those solutions

To have a decent level and money

Then buy some cars, while totally vanilla, and see how the game acts... if you still have the issue vanilla only, then I'm of no more help... I have no issues with parking, as stated on the other post about same issue.

Also make sure your PC is at or above minimum requirements.
because with all those reports about parking issues, I have yet to see someone posting his PC specs.
Even with a mid Tier gaming PC, it takes some time to load a garage level, and again that totally vanilla...

I'll give your suggestions a shot. I'm using several of the workshop cars but I wasn't the first time it happened, as the save I ended up deleting (to fix the garage issue) was before the workshop support was added. The previous save didn't have any modded cars.

As for specs, I should be just fine but here they are to satisfy any curiosity:

AMD FX-8350 (8-core, 4 GHz, stock clock speed)
16 GB DDR3
Radeon R9 290
SSD

The game runs just fine and all other functionality works as expected. I simply can't access the garage. It's rather odd.

Edited to add: I subscribed to the workshop cars as soon as I started a new game and made it to level 12 before having any issues. I've purchased, restored, and sold a handful of workshop cars up to this point without any issues.

Thing is, it seems rather random as to why at some point you can't access the garage anymore.
At a point early game it was due to a mayen car (the M6 I think). Maybe one single mod peeps really struggle to pinpoint...
I also have seen one comment lately about someone who indeed gave rid of any M6 (or whatever the Mayen car it was) and could access garage again, even though the issue has been fixed on devs side.

Also maybe look into that direction of the max 50 mods limit on this game

Maybe you added a bit too many afterward

Maybe so. I wasn't aware there was a limit so I'm glad you mentioned it. I subscribed to 33 different cars. I'll try to prune that down a little and see what happens (including removing the car that I have in the garage right now).

Well, unsubscribing from cars, as well as disabling DLC, didn't do anything for me. I'm not going to start another game. I quit playing the game the first time I lost everything, and gave them time to work out some of the issues. This now marks the third time I will have lost all of my progress. I want to love this game but I guess I'm moving on again (at least for a little while).

Thing is, playing totally vanilla, never dropped any modded cars (for the very few hours/days I tried a few mods) in the garage, and in all the hours I have logged, all in one single profile, still yet have to encounter that parking bug or any lost cars.

Whatever you want to do with the game, when there are known issues of peeps loosing their progresses, there are many many post that mentions 2 things.

Turn off the steam cloud for this game (which I did)
Make personal backup saves from known working saves.

Better always safer than sorry.

Anyway, whatever you play, have a nice early 2018 gaming
