Linking Housing items freezes game

Felkara · June 9

Has anyone else noticed since the update came out, that linking items in housing can cause the game to freeze/crash? I’m playing on Xbox Play Anywhere. Didn’t have any issues with it prior to update 50.

Not had that issue. Spent a couple of hours last night in a house linking/delinking. I'm on PC, so could be an XBox only issue.

My wife is sitting behind me playing ESO on an Xbox Series X. She's had that happen a few times in the last few minutes.

Could those of you experiencing this on Xbox systems please let us know if you are running the game with any addons installed? Odd hitching is a pretty classic result of outdated addons, especially following a new update. It would be good to rule that out first.

The only addon I use is Dolgubon's Lazy Writ Crafter. Updated and didn’t fix it unfortunately.

Yes. This is happening to me (and other players) on PS5. The ability to link/group objects is broken post U50. Objects that were linked have lost their child/parent mapping and trying to re-link them (press L3) completely bricks the game leaving no option except to force quit. I am not using any add-ons. Edit to add: You can link/unlink objects that have never been linked before with a brand new parent, but you cannot find existing parents nor link/unlink existing linked children without getting bricked.

Hi all, have a quick update related to this. The team is aware of this issue and working on a fix. In the meantime, the recommendation is do not interact with linked furnishings. Once we have a fix and potential timing for the fix, we'll follow up. Thanks.

Hi All. following up on this issue. With our update today, we have resolved the issue with linked furniture. You should be able to link/unlink without console freezing.
