CTD Problem

[RandalLee]

I have a strange problem with my game crashing when loading a Championship I created. The strange thing is the game loads fine in Race Weekend mode, but when in Championship mode, using the exact same cars, it crashes. Here is part of my trace file:

The only things I see are the "non-existent tire brand" line, which I wouldn't think is the problem since the game loads in Race Weekend mode, and the "GMT and EFX meshes diff too much", which I don't believe I've ever seen in a trace file before. Again, I am stumped as to why it would work in Race Weekend but not Championship mode. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I suggest you start troubleshooting by cutting the "FORZA CARS\CADILLAC CTSV COUPE 2011\PWC14_CADILLAC RACING" car and pasting it somewhere else. My guess is that the CTD will be gone because the problem appears to be with that mod. Is the Forza Cadillac listed in the Championship?

Thank you for your reply, gwaldock. Did as you suggested and put the "offending" cars in their own folder in the teams folder, which did allow the game to proceed to the Championship without a ctd, but the cars were bouncing around inside the garage. On a hunch I decided to try a different version of the first circuit in the Championship (St. Petersburg) and now everything works fine. Must have been something in the track folder that was causing problems. Thanks again for your help.

No worries RandalLee I am happy to have been of help.
