I’m sorry I’ve not come back to update my experience, about a month ago I tried taking someone’s advice in this thread on just letting it sit on the error message until it eventually saves and gives you a notification stating so on the top right behind the error message. Miraculously, that worked (hopefully it still does).
Truthfully, that being the solution makes it more infuriating that it’s not been fixed by EA in years. Clearly what’s happening is a false error message, I don’t know much about coding but I don’t see why that’s so difficult to fix on their end. Just prevent the error message from showing and let us figure out if it actually didn’t save, that’d be more preferable than telling everybody on PC and console alike that they just can’t upload their own build, and we give up before it’s actually done uploading.
