How to stop large projects from crashing on my end?

help_the_animals

I use a windows 11 and I am constantly having to deal with scratch crashing when I try to play large projects. Is there any way to fix this?

Well Scratch can't handle big chunks of codes you could always play those projects on turbowarp

They crash on turbowarp too

Can I just see the project that your computer keeps crashing on to see if it's just an issue on your end or a problem that everyone experiences?

If not then what makes the project “large” in a way?

Double check that your system is fully up to date, keep everything closed except the project you're trying to run, and it might work!

It's an issue I have with many projects, mainly ones with lots of sprites and code, but in particular my MAP here: https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/1043333190

I checked on my Windows 11 PC and I don't have any problems with it. It may be that your hardware is causing this issue; do you have any problems with opening other complex applications on your computer?

I am having this issue as well, and nothing I do, from restarts to clearing my cache to deleting stiff, will fix it. It happens whenever I run a really complex or big project on turbowarp where it will freeze, not load, turn black, refresh my page, or a combination of those.
