    Hello everyone. I'm having an issue with replays. Basically, after some seconds playing the replay, the color of some AI cars starts flickering. Does anyone know how to fix this?
    --- Post updated ---
    The problems seems to be related with the car respawning with another color. I'm uploading another video showing this. Looks like it's unable to change the color if the car is respawned during the replay.

    Does this happen in safe mode? (Launcher -> Support Tools -> Safe Mode)

    I have experienced the same issue, it only seems to affect cars that change colors (like traffic) during a replay.

    I haven't been able to reproduce on my side yet, so I'm unable to try to fix it.

    It would be extremely helpful if someone could record a quick video, beginning with launching the game, and up until the bug is visible. This way I'll know for sure the steps to follow.

    Thank you!

    I'm able to reproduce the issue by doing the following:
    • Spawn some AI cars
    • Start recording a replay
    • Start moving away from AI cars so they can respawn (with a different color)
    • Stop recording the replay
    • Play the replay (do not pause or jump ahead)
    • If an AI car respawns with a different color during the replay, you will see the issue

    For me this issue has been happening for a while now, it's like henriqueuser says, drive around so ai cars respawn and record a replay, watch the replay and ai cars will flicker this does not happen with a cop ai because I'm assuming it's because they do not change colour when respawning unlike normal ai cars that do change colour on respawn. It seems they are flickering between the colours they respawn with if that makes sense

    I had the issue happen in safe mode, and I recorded a video. I ended up seeing the issue when watching one of my older replays, so I tried to recreate it in safe mode...

    As expected. And now, the stupid challenge markers keep popping up and flickering in the replays along with regular game play as well, even though I have them turned off. New update, new problems.

    Don't care if it's a bump. They still haven't fixed it even now. This it what happens when they hire amateurs. I miss the old development team.

    Thanks for the kind words. I had zero time to work on this for the update due to other tasks taking higher priority.

    I'll try to fit the fix in next update but it's quite unlikely I'm afraid, way too many other tasks in the pipeline already :(

    Edit: Also, please no personal insults everyone, let's keep it civil :)
