NFS Heat Body Customization Crashes Game

So I literally spent a whole day whittling it down to customizations. If you customize your car to a certain point, races don’t like it - and even getting to a race will make the game crash.

so to PREVENT this — do not use any body kit customizations past a certain number. 5-8 is a safe number. A skin/wrap counts as one customization. 

if you experience a crash, you WILL have to remove all customizations — including wheels — from your car. Then exit out to the main menu. Then load the game and complete a race. When you get back to your garage, add on no more than 5 visual customizations. play the nearest race to test. If it doesn’t crash, you may add another 3.. maybe even 4 —- at the max. Test again.

Simply removing one or more customizations doesn’t fix the problem once you’ve experienced a crash. You will have to initialize the entire car by resetting it, then exiting to the main menu - otherwise it will crash despite being stripped of all customizations. Exit to the main menu first!
