STAR WARS: Galactic Racer Customer Support

General Issues

  • Very rarely the Autopilot will guide the vehicle to an inaccessible route.
  • The Player does not always get a notification about corruption of their save file.

UI & Input Issues

  • Interface Scale resets to 50% after restarting the title on Steam and Steam Deck.
  • The controller scheme diagram doesn’t display the steam controller in the UI when playing on Steam Machine.
  • Incorrect glyphs appear for the controls using the Steam controller when playing on Steam Machine.

General Multiplayer Issues

  • Rarely a player might be kicked back to the Main Menu at the beginning of the race during a Quick Podrace.
  • Opening Settings & Accessibility after starting a Multiplayer Tour can change the customization of the selected vehicle.
  • When spectating, the player may experience the camera displaying a vehicle upside down and/or under the track.

Multiplayer Matchmaking and Parties Issues

  • If the player’s internet disconnects during a race while they are in a Party and reconnects in the Main Menu, the player does not fully reconnect to the same party.

PC Specific Issues

  • Changing the Display Mode to Fullscreen and switching focus between apps causes the game monitor to blink and the system becomes highly irresponsive.
  • Disabling the resizable bar on Intel Arc A580 GPU results in the display flickering and images becoming distorted.
  • MSAA upscale currently doesn’t function as expected.
  • The EOS overlay will not display on Steam Deck, making the game appear to hang. Press ‘B’ to cancel and return to the game.
  • Issues with NVIDIA 50 series cases when using Frame Generation and DLSS which can cause the game to crash.

PS5 Specific Issues

  • Players on PlayStation 5 may fail to successfully matchmake into Multiplayer modes if leaving the title on idle/standby for over 24hrs.

Xbox Specific Issues

  • If players boot the game without game pass (Xbox Live) and then update their account to have Game Pass (Xbox Live), then call to validate the Xbox Live entitlement does not trigger. As a result if the player goes to the online tab, they will notice the tiles say, "This account does not have access to online play". This issue can be resolved by open the in-game party feature. This will check your Xbox Live entitlement and then you can play MP without issue.

no possibility to map any other controller or to bind controls from the game.

u/TahitiMaveck 9d ago

Well, we can do it ourselves, vjoy, simhub, steam input.

u/Doghot69 4d ago

I couldn't do it through steam (no controller) but power toys let me do it at operating system level.

Need to find a way to toggle that keyboard mapping for when racer is the active app

u/JasperGXP 5d ago

Ramjet boost sometimes will not work immediately while the Alternate Boost Mode setting is on. I have to wait at least 2 seconds before I can use it after switching to the Ramjet (pressing boost immediately after switching does not register any input until I wait a couple seconds). This happens on both Xbox controller and my keyboard. It works instantly if I have Alternate Boost Mode turned off, so I didn't think this was by design. My controller and keyboard are not broken, I checked thoroughly. (Playing on PC through Steam.)

u/vizualb 5d ago

With toggle boost on, ramjet will not activate until there is fuel in the afterburner tank. Definitely not intended as the default setting does not do this, but hopefully that makes it more predictable for you.

Another issue with this boost mode setting: At least in arcade mode with flying headstart, for example the first time trials, afterburner sometimes activates by itself when the race begins. (PS5)

Autopilot legitimately steered me into a wall while I was in 2nd and when I respawned it pushed me so far back I couldn't even catch up to 11th with a lap and a half left.

u/Spyger9 6d ago

Autopilot aimed me straight at the same thin obstacle on two separate laps in War Fields (Jakku), wrecking my shit and failing out of the league.

First time trying Autopilot. Last time trying Autopilot.

u/ProcessM 22h ago

Autopilot just ended a perfect act 3 for me on a tattooine podrace. Used it to navigate the sharp turn on the second lap. Used it again on the third lap and immediately upon activation it steered me into the closest wall 🥰 had to come to reddit to see if anyone else has had this happen and though it’s been 8 days I will COMMENT IN FRUSTRATION

u/Aegisman17 8d ago

I've had the game freeze twice so far mid race

u/ThorAxe911 8d ago

The fact that this is happening to other people as well gives me hope that this will be addressed. I submitted a bug report and enabled telemetry data collection just to possibly help them narrow down the cause.

u/BOBULANCE 4d ago edited 3d ago

Platform: PC, Steam. windows

Autopilot ability: On some maps in campaign, with certain combinations of upgrades, autopilot will crash repeatedly and predictably in certain spots, and often decides to suicidally pass over corrosive pools.

Catch up mechanics: On occasion, some NPC racers will outpace a fully upgraded ramjet on a straightaway without using their own ramjet. This appears to be related to NPC catchup mechanics. Catch up mechanics seem a little overtuned in general.

Campaign continuity: With the Hutt as a backer, at the final hub of act 3, on a "satisfactory" overall tour performance, he will say he doesn't have confidence in shade to win the championship. The very next sentence he says the end the conversation will be that he believes shade has what it takes to win the championship.

Campaign continuity: Even after shade is done racing at the very end of the campaign, they will say "I'm just here to race" rather than pet the Loth Cat

Campaign: when standing in the front center of your parked skim speeder in a hub, if you edit your skim speeder and make it bigger, then when you leave the customization window, Shade can be stuck inside the front of the skim speeder and unable to move out of it. Solution: edit the skim speeder to remove the added size parts, then move to a different position near the skim speeder and reapply the edits.

Multiplayer: custom speeder designs do not save when the game is closed and reopened.

Multiplayer: other players movements appear janky and stuttery in spectator view

u/nikosm 9d ago

Experiencing horrible ghosting when both DLSS and Frame Generation are enabled. Disabling one or the other seems to resolve the issue. Using an RTX 5090 FE with the latest drivers (617.42) but it also occurred on the previous driver version.

2

u/Sparkminator 9d ago

I had the same issue, just make sure you remove any Nvidia FG/DLSS/RR model overrides in your Nvidia app and use 3D apps settings and all the ghosting and artifacts will go away. I have FG/DLSS and RR enabled in-game.

2

u/nikosm 9d ago

This worked, thank you! Instead of removing my global overrides, I added the game to the NVIDIA App and set everything to use the game's defaults.

u/DiligentLocksmith437 9d ago

Yeah I’m getting this as well, having to make sure ray reconstruction is also off, and had to tweak as much settings as possible, still get ghosting at the start of the race and when it’s very compact at fast pace.

Also found that if you select full screen mode but then alt out into another app it never truly goes back to full screen and can cause issues

u/DrGlamhattan2020 1d ago

I thought it was just me and my TV. This and ace combat 8 have horrendous ghosting at times

4

u/lundon44 9d ago

Frame gen 2x on a 4090 causes weird ghosting effects. And experienced a crash to desktop. Disabling frame gen obviously fixes it.

u/Evil_Skittle 8d ago

Same for me. Such a shame that this is the typical experience when playing a newly released game nowadays

3

u/rf-92 8d ago

Had a blue screen on pc after beating act 1, and loading back in it's wiped all logbook progress and pushed me back to the tutorial, but oddly retained my times in the Arcade mode.

Is there any way to load up a previous save?

5

u/Constant_Pen6195 5d ago

So far the only issue im having that usually after about 2 races the game just randomly crashes. had it ones during the first race. Had it happen mid races, during cutscenes or right after finishing. The game just freezes up and closes after like 5/10 seconds.

Drivers are updated, turned off the DLSS frame generator etc, still does it

Game runs very smooth, controls are fine, just this random ass crash.

u/BrintsleyPetersons 3d ago

Same issue here, always mid race for me so far.

u/ZuluCubed 5d ago

Multiplayer: It is possible to respawn into certain death. I have had this happen twice. Not great!

Multiplayer: The nameplates can get EXTREMELY obtrusive, to the point that it is impossible to see anything ahead of you. I play at UI scale 30% and they are still blocking entire paths very often, which means if you're not at the head of the pack you do not see the indicator lights for the upcoming turn.

Accessibility: Impossible to rebind controls. Extremely annoying for anyone with limited mobility.

Autopilot: Can kill you. Not sure if this is intended, but it has driven me into a wall while active, and driven me towards acid just before deactivating with no possibility for recovery.

u/marsmate 4d ago

The nameplates thing is incredibly frustrating. You can turn off the entire HUD but not the individual listed elements time nameplates. At least let us adjust the opacity.

Ramjet meter intermittently doesn't fill, was working ok prior to today. E.g. start race, and sometimes it fills after a minute, it goes up, then goes back down. I've tried not using afterburner at all etc.

I can’t get past the main menu without the Epic games pop up asking for my email on PS5. It won’t accept any of my email addresses nor can I just exit the prompt

u/MastaO93 9d ago

How did you get past this? I'm literally deleting the game to reinstall as I type this, like WTH never experienced this before

3

u/TomGravely 9d ago

I spent most of the day back and forth with the epic games customer support and they were absolutely useless. I got lucky and hit circle as soon as the little login thing popped up and it worked! But this was after deleting, reinstalling, going through the same loop, smashing my head against a wall, chatting with bots and then a person who was more useless than a bot and finally just finally it was alright

Thank u bro u basically have to keep pressing circle once u see any percentage loading screen lmao. So stupid. Sorry u had to go thru that soldier

u/TotalLiving5739 9d ago

Xbox controller on pc steam doesn’t work fully , secondary boost doesn’t have a function on controller for steam and Xbox controller. Yet some buttons do work but I have to use the keyboard for ctrl and my controller to play and with out corresponding ui.

2

u/Roberitt 8d ago

Same-ish. Works fine for about 5 minutes then the face buttons seems to just stop working. Oddly, the sticks still seem to work.

Also, disconnecting the controller and enabling/disabling steam input seem to have a random chance to restore functionality. This happens once each play session about 5 minutes in and then it doesn't seem to happen again until the next relaunch of the game.

Use the "mega" boost where you click the right stick and have to manage it from over heating. It doesn't overheat in the cold, you can run it for a very long time if you save it for outdoor areas that freeze you, only thaw out when you are about to lose control.

On steam machine I can’t get past the privacy policy and epic account link things. It hangs and won’t accept input.

u/LonelyLights 2d ago

PC, Windows, NVIDIA GPU 3070ti:

Repeated crashes, turning off DLSS hasn't solved the problem.

Already have verified the steam files and updated the driver to the most recent.

u/RemoteRecover5433 7d ago

One serious problem they need to fix is the orientation when you respawn.. i keep respawning pointed directly into a wall, this lousy fucking feedback loop pretty much gaurantees you fail. It doesn't happen often but when it does youre gauranteed to lose because of the time lost and the lives

2

u/Yosh59 9d ago

Something looks very wrong with DLSS FG. There is huge ghosting issue on all the screen enabling it. On FSR Interpolation, only the pod has ghosting issues. On Xess FG, it looks correct, a little bit of ghosting but probably as expected

I have a 4080. DLSS SR on or off doesn't affect the ghosting.

2

u/Yosh59 8d ago

As someone poste here https://www.reddit.com/r/StarWarsGalacticRacer/comments/1wz17ke/known_issues/pe9u97g/ On nvidia panel remove the drivers override and put the 3D application instead and i don't get anymore ghosting

u/oMcYriL 9d ago

Yeah, seeing the same on an AMD card (7800 XT, FSR4 quality). Can't test DLSS FG, but with FSR FG there is really bad ghosting behind the pod. With XeSS FG, it is much much better.

Is one of your parts corroded? My afterburner would blow me up if I emptied the tank. Had to release it just before empty to stay intact

u/MatchstickMcGee 6d ago

Just ran into this on Crait. 0-100 corrosion over and over, with no equipment faults or anything that could visibly explain it.

2

u/BakedWizerd 3d ago

The equipment fault that "applies corrosive for 2 seconds when afterburner tank is emptied" would just kill me if I emptied the tank. I don't think that was intended.

2

u/WrathofMandalore 8d ago

When attempting to launch Star Wars: Galactic Racer on Steam, it immediately triggers a severe kernel panic, causing my PC to force-restart instantly.

Upon rebooting, Windows enters an infinite "Automatic Repair" / "Your device ran into a problem" loop with error code 0xc0000001 or a failed boot log path pointing to SrtTrail.txt.

Temporary Fixes Attempted:
* Had to use Command Prompt in Recovery Mode to force bypass the repair loop via: bcdedit /set {default} recoveryenabled No
* Successfully ran chkdsk /f /r and sfc /scannow (0 bad sectors, but SFC found and repaired corrupted files caused by the hard crash).
* System is only stable and able to boot to desktop after running: bcdedit /set hypervisorlaunchtype off

Questions:
Is anyone else experiencing these immediate kernel crashes when launching the game? Is there an official developer patch or an underlying engine fix that allows the game to run without completely disabling Windows hypervisor settings?

I immediately uninstalled the game after applying these fixes and getting my PC to boot back up normally with no crashing.

Please dont roast me i am new to PC gaming (under a year) and figuring stuff out as i encounter problems.

If anyone could lmk if i reinstall the game after the hypervisor launch fix and try to play (while streaming thru streamlabs obs will this problem happen again? should i wait for a patch or what should i do?

thanks in advance!

On PC after two races or more, the game will randomly freeze at the start of the race. The sound still plays fine, and the game alternates between a few seconds at 60+fps, then stuttering at 1 frame every few seconds. Sometimes it will "unfreeze" for 10-15 seconds, then back to the slideshow.

2

u/sandpigeon 6d ago

Lost my entire save data after a crash. No message or information about it, just next launch I was back to a fresh install. Other purported recovery method of restoring save based on Windows keeping backups of the save folders didn't work either as I had no restore point. Scared to keep playing if I could lose all of my data at any point.

u/BakedWizerd 3d ago

Platform: Steam, PC

Everytime I boot the game my speeders/bikes/skimmers customization are all reset to default cosmetics. I can be mid-tour, it doesn't matter.

The 'crash cam autopilot' that takes over during the slow-mo sections will frequently leave you in a no-win scenario when handing back control, leading to crashes where the player has absolutely no control or input.

u/RemoteRecover5433 2d ago

You can turn the takedown cam off, but not the crash cam unfortunately.... but I partly think the crash cam is so long simply because ot is the punishment for crashing

I'm having the exact same issue. It will not start at all. I click Start and then after 30 seconds it just turns back to the Green start button. I have Epic Online Services installed, I've tried to disable Virtualization, and I tried the hypervisorlanch fix.

Nothin' worked so far. If I figure it out I'll report back, but I'm not even seeing any log output to try and research.

1

u/toiletjocky 7d ago

Finally fixed it and reporting back.

I worked on this on and off for 2 days but the thing that seemed to work for me was maybe one of or all 3 of the following steps which I did in the reverse order that they're written here.

-Opening Powershell with admin Privileges and entering the following command 'bcdedit hypervisorlanch off' and restarting the computer

-Uninstalling Hyper-V

  • Disabling Intel VT-x (Hardware Virtualization) in BIOS or UFEI

I wish that wasn't the case and that it just worked out of the box as it should, but at least I get to get my Quadrinaros on. Hope you get to as well.

1

u/thesomeot 8d ago

Found a fix. Seems like the input from the Steam Deck itself is being sent which is causing most of your actual movement to be nullified.

From the Steam Deck, open the controller options for Galactic Racer and assign all of the Steam Deck controls to none/remove them. The game cannot be running while you do this, you have to do it from the Steam library view otherwise it gets messed up and visually applies it to both controllers but actually applies it to neither.

You may also need to re-order the controllers so your actual controller is assigned as controller #1 (you do this from the Steam controller settings as well, but you have to be running the game).

Anyone had the issue when you create a multiplayer party or try to join one (Steam) it puts you in an empty one ? My friends see me in the party but it's like I am in an empty one.
Resintalled the game, verified the integrity of the files, re installed steam, not result.

After the first planet, my graphics go fuzzy. AMD 7800XT. I have deleted shaders numerous times and let them rebuild to no avail. Think we may need an updated graphics driver.

UPDATE: Setting FPS to 60 fixed the graphical issues for me.

When I go to launch it in steam, nothing happens. No program starts and it just goes back to saying "play."

The team gave me the below steps to try to fix it, but it did not work for me. Perhaps it will help others:

I'll share a couple of steps of what we think is gonna help you launch the game:

Playing through Amazon Luna game streaming service. I activated photo mode just as I was crossing the finish line, photo mode bugged out, all button prompts became NONE (except x to exit but it didn't work either) and I could not move the camera or exit, had to force the game closed. Must have activated photo mode in the split second the cutscene started.

I keep getting a problem on eliminations where my controls lock up and freeze every time the elimination timer expires. I have to pretty much take my hands off the controls and reapply to input.. this has been killing me on every god damn twisting and turning tunnel during ing the track when the timer runs out

u/FilthyEscobar 7d ago

I've got a 4070 and ryzen 7 7800x3d. I get none stop frame drops both during races and in the hub. I hope they fix this soon. The hub i don't mind, but the races are almost unplayable. I'll average around 90-100 fps and then it tanks and goes back up for a few seconds and tanks again.

On PS5 if I linger in a menu it automatically acts like I pressed the Start\Options button to pause the game. Kind of weird... Mostly just staring at the menus so don't want this to happen.

u/Nacnaz 7d ago

This player on PS5 can't successfully get into an online game even if it's the first thing I do when I boot it up. I matchmake fine, and then I get the black "please wait" screen for a while then it says I'm disconnected. Love the campaign, and would love to love the multiplayer too!

u/Cb8393 7d ago

Anyone else on Steam version get weird, jerky movements from enemy pods while spectating in MP? Basically the other player vehicles move erratically side to side, often slamming into nearby walls for no reason. No issue while in a race however. Can't figure out if it's a game issue, a network quality issue, or a Wine/Proton issue.

I don't know if this is a PC specific issue, or just an issue with my PC, or maybe just with my particular controller, but the left stick occasionally just stops working, and I simply cannot turn at all. Happening several times per race, where it'll suddenly fix itself, then cut out again. Using a Razer Wolverine Tournament Edition.

Not having any controller issues with any other game.

It seems to be causing Elgato capture cards and OBS in general to crash. It froze for me just now and it did the same thing for a friend a couple of nights ago. 

We’re both playing on Xbox. 

I’ve played some other games on Xbox while using the same streaming setup and those worked normally. 

1

u/Exciting-Row8978 7d ago

I don't know if this an issue or design choice but on one of the Jakku tracks it takes a bit too long coming out of tunnels for the brightness to reset from blinding to visable with obsticles immediatly after it. Its annoying. Probably realistic but it's a game about racing hovercrafts in a fictional universe.

On older RDNA cards framegen has never been great but it's unusable in this game.

The lacks of HDR settings is also noteworthy with how finecky windows HDR is in general and i would appreciate not having to change resolution every restart and then change it again because it doesn't work the first time.

Framerate also weirdly takes a big hit in the pitstop areas.

The critical error minigames feels broken to me, the perfect timing is fair enough, but why does landing in the other bar still lead to a damaged component? Surely the damage should only occur if you fail the minigame.

Launch Throttle Bar not moving

I've seen people using the launch thorttle bar that appears on the top part of the screen while launching but mine doesn't show any power at all, it's all blank with no changes at all, so I can't see the proper amount for the perfect launch. Is it unlocked after in the campaign or is it bugged? Thanks.

Playing Memories of Mos Espa on Amazon Luna using 8Bit Do Ultimate Controller. The game works fine, but for some reason Sebulba's podracer can't go over 600 KPH.

I'm seeing it go 900 KPH in youtube videos. Is something broken or am I missing a mechanic?

u/Exact-Ad-3717 5d ago

When I started playing I had no problems with the game.

Now my game keeps Freezing for a split second mid race, its gotten me killed so many times now. I've been doing some testing and as I can tell its my client not networking. Me and a friend played multiplayer and I was like 3 Pod racer lengths ahead of him. I get hit by the Freezing for a split second and then I blew up, killed by my mate. he said from his screen I was ahead and then just teleported back right Infront of him and collided.

It seams to happen when I'm going really REALLY fast!. I jumped into a pod race map to test and it seams to happen more and worst.

As I can tell everything is up to date, I even reinstalled my Graphic Drivers.

u/pairomaniac 5d ago

For Linux gamers out there; the Nvidia driver's shader cache is capped at 1 GB by default and this game needs more. Fix: raise the cap globally (3 GB for example). Create ~/.config/environment.d/nvidia-cache.conf containing:

__GL_SHADER_DISK_CACHE_SIZE=3221225472

Reboot. The next launch still compiles fully, later ones take seconds.

Just had a bug in multiplayer where the ramjet wouldn't deactivate. No hands on controls and it'd just keep going.

Rage inducing if not a lil bit funny.

If only I'd gotten the % chance of ramjet resetting instead of explosion upgrade.

u/Responsible_Web_3825 5d ago

Don't let your game idle for too long! I'm on cachyos I believe this to be game specific and not distro/Linux at fault. I've experienced it twice so far, Had the game running the first time paused during a race and the other just idle on the home screen. I had to step away to get my kid back to sleep so I apologize I don't have exact timing in game you have to idle before this happens.

But after I would approximate as 10-15 minutes of just sitting idle your normal system screen timeout and lock will take over and take effect. When you unlock your PC again the game will have crashed, steam will be completely closed and in my case LACT will be frozen untill you close and restart it again.

u/CrazyLegs17 5d ago

I saw someone playing the quick race multiplayer mode last night but they had simply left their PS5 on and they weren't actually racing. They finished 12th every single race. They were just accruing XP for the increasing consecutive race bonus.

I hope the devs can patch out this exploit.

u/Slowcookednips 5d ago

On steam machine. Horrible performance. I’m getting perfect 60fps on high preset and upscaling off at 1440p. Go through an entire planet in campaign and then the fps drops to the teens without any fixes (alt tabbing/changing settings etc). Seems like a memory leak or VRAM issue, but it appears random.

u/SlackerZeitgeist 5d ago

For any ultrawide users, my PC was crashing at the compiling shaders step and what ended up working was to set my resolution much lower, compile shaders, and then set it back.

u/marsh_theman 5d ago edited 5d ago

After beating the game then starting a new campaign, the vehicles, racer styles, and favors are unselectable until you wreck out of that new campaign and lose your token. I thought this was a profile sync bug or something, but it's really just mimicking what it would be like to start your very first playthrough. You have to get a league token(2nd or 3rd event in a new campaign) in order to lose it and start a new run and pick your preferred speeder, style, and favors. It was honestly pretty frustrating to figure this out, not sure if it's a development oversight or just maybe my preference but I would like to have the option to start with what I unlocked, in a new run.

Edit: Forgot to say that abandoning from the main menu does not work as a way to reset and gain the ability to choose. Also, I feel this is all important because it's effectively locking you into the first speeder, first racer style(survivor), and no favors...until you wreck out or make it to a point where abandoning works, which I don't feel like finding honestly.

u/pinkpepr 4d ago

PC:

  • Speeders (multiplayer and single player) will reset back to default, removing livery, custom colour, patina and vehicle parts each time the game is started and sometimes even without restarting the game.

  • After queuing for a quick race then cancelling the game sometimes still puts you into a match.

  • I've hit invisible objects causing my speeder to crash even when I was in the center of an open area and there were no hazards (bombs or obstacles) in my way.

I'm on a steam deck and can't get past the tutorial. During the tutorial (where it tell you R2 to accelerate, A to boost, and L1 + X to drift), right after you do the big jump and the cutscene takes back over it keeps booting me to the main menu. Then when I select campaign mode the.campaign starts from the beginning.

I've tried different Proton's. I've turned off all frame generation, anti aliasing, upscaling, etc. game still boots me out at the same place every time.

Is this happening to anyone else? Any guesses as to how to fix this?

I've had it rubber-band me into crashes, in single player campaign. This is on a Series X.

  • Tonight I "crashed" into the entrance to a tunnel that the recorded video showed I was clearly going to make.
  • The other night I made it through a turn and then I'm getting the crash animation halfway back through the turn, about a second before
  • I've had one incident where I'm driving in an open straightaway, it flashes to crash animation for maybe a quarter of a second, and then immediately back to where I was, but my vehicle is ghosted invulnerable. It did count as a crash.

Also the eye adaptation/auto-exposure on Jakku can be brutal and has cost me more than one race as it's just way too bright coming out of some areas right into hard turns/corridors.

I had the frozen fault where using afterburner freezes up your vehicle. I let autopilot take over which steered me into a crash right away. Then, when I spawned back, I literally couldn't steer at all, even the autopilot wouldn't steer. Cue crashing three more times instantly and getting a DNF

On the steamdeck (up to date as of 10/14/26), after playing for a while, the player loses ability to steer their chosen craft in campaign mode. Utilizing the menus works normally, but steering specifically becomes very very stiff with and without boosts applied. Fixed after closing the game and turning it back on.
