Done that already, unfortunately. This issue started to appear after the patch released around christmas last year. Hoping the error would go away when new patches arrived, but still no luck. The appearance of this error seems to be as random as the meteorite-rain bug on PS4 in Dirt Rally 2.0. And the solution for it is to reload the game, and restart the stage. I hope it get fixed though...&nbsp;

That sounds like some graphics assets are corrupt.&nbsp;

The grenen squares actually shows in replay as well, see attached pictures.&nbsp;

The pictures are taken from Waiwera, New Zealand, in time trial with dry conditions using the McRae R4 on PS5 game version 1.008.100. This time I just had to go out to the in-game main menu and then back into the same time trial event, and the problem dissappeared.&nbsp;😳

I'm getting the same exact bug 10 months later on my PS5. It happens randomly, and is rare, could live with it easier than with the screen tearing to be honest. Also, sometimes the framerate gets halved and I have to quit out of the event and get back in to fix it.

I won't buy their next game if it has the same issues.
