skate. Patch 0.31.2 Fixes Crashes and Removes San Van Traffic

The latest skate. patch eliminates stability bugs, prevents freezes tied to menus and parties, and temporarily removes moving traffic from San Van to address crashing issues.

San Van is losing its moving traffic temporarily while the development team tracks down stability problems. Patch 0.31.2 also targets a wide array of hard crashes linked to menus, hardware configurations, and friend parties.

Crash Fixes and Stability

The update resolves multiple hard crashes that occurred when opening the pause menu near Grabster interactions or interacting with tattoos in customization menus and the skate Pass. Opening Skatepedia from the Toolbox immediately after leaving the store no longer freezes the client, and general stability has been improved.

San Van Traffic and World Bugs

Moving cars in San Van have been pulled from the game entirely for at least 24 hours following the patch to ensure stability fixes hold up. Prior to this, toggling World Traffic off and on caused moving cars to become invisible while keeping their collision intact, which also triggered crashes.

Menus, Spectating, and Party Fixes

Joining a friend's party no longer dumps players into a random party instead. In spectator mode, players can now toggle between other users properly, and the spectate and report buttons on a friend's RIP Card accessed from the map are fully responsive again. UI desaturation and small visual artifacts have also been cleaned up.

Hardware Requirements and Community Parks

PCs running on fewer than four cores and falling below minimum specifications will now cleanly display a UI warning message and prevent the game from booting rather than crashing abruptly. Additionally, the yellow rails in Community Parks have been fixed so they cast their proper shadows.

Why this patch matters

Patch 0.31.2 is a stability sweep that tackles severe crashes affecting menus and low-end hardware, though the temporary removal of traffic leaves San Van emptier until the fix is verified.
