Opening the level editor in Geometry dash 2.2 makes the game freeze and crash

[76561199585920723]

Whenever I try opening the level I created in the level editor, the game freezes and then crashes. I can play the level perfectly fine but can't edit it. This bug has never occurred to me before the 2.2 update. Anybody know how to fix it?

Same. Doesn't happen for every level either. What's really strange is that I can't reproduce it, even if I make a new identical level, only one will crash.

Hello, I'm having this issue too. I think it could be related to the screen effects (e.g. Pixellate). I can consistently reproduce it, which is super annoying, I've been locked out of all my levels. Im yet to test if you can get locked out without the pixellate option.

But there might be another reason for the crash, if you click "Save and play" then very quickly go back into the editor, then it will be on a black loading screen, forcing you to restart. It will be potentially corrupted afterwards. I've only tested this on my phone, I'm yet to try it on PC.

I am having the same issue to. However I don't have a crash report. It just hangs.

don't delete your level if you cannot get back in it, I found a workaround to getting back into the editor:
first, you have to verify your level then upload it to the servers with allow copy on (you can also turn on unlisted)
then you have to copy your level and then you will be able to open the editor again
after you're back in the editor remove MG and it should completely fix the problem (I don't know why MG is broken wait for 2.21)

The problem there is verifying the level. My level doesn't have an end point yet (platformer) so I can't verify it. It happened right after I put the Zoom thing in a new level with the "spawn trigger" ticked if that matters. Not sure why this happens, but I now have two levels which I can't edit.

I have the same problem here but I noticed that when I want to open the level editor of levels that contains 2.2 features it crash but not for 2.1 levels with no 2.2 extra features.

I hope that bug will be resolved soon.

After 2 days of searching the Internet and testing the game, I found the reason. DO NOT USE THE MIDDLE GROUND! Without it, the levels in the editor run. Maybe there are some other items that can cause problems, but I haven't found them yet. If anything, I will add to this comment or you will add to it.

It's most likely the autobuild feature
Whenever I make a level in which I use this feature and have created a template, I can no longer get into the editor. It would be nice if a fix came soon

Never used autobuild on levels which crash.

This seems like it is the cause because I remember adding MG to levels and having it crash afterwards.

its MG crashing, is there a way around this?
