When I go to Project Management menu option and upload my image (exactly 544x544 .bmp 24-bit image) It will crash my game and not upload the image.

I have tried moving the image to various folders on my computer, tried uploading different sizes and even .jpg but nothing seems to work. Any idea what is causing this?

what exacly do you want to accomplish? is the image some kind of parallax? if so, is there a folder named parallax?
do you have an ! in front to make it scroll (if its the same in MV?

or has it different purpose like title screen?

I don't have anything called "Project Management" in my version of Ace, so what exactly is it you are referring to? Do you mean "Resource Manager"?

It is titled "Manage Project" in the toolbar, right next to the green arrow for "Playtest"
It looks like a grey gear.

What I am attempting to do is upload a thumbnail image under [Select Thumbnail] where I choose the image but, it crashes the game instead. Feel free to re-read all the things I have already tried.

It is part of the steam management to upload something to the workshop (it does not exist in standalone VXA), and if I remember correctly steam is especially finicky about accepting those thumbnails. I know I needed a few tries with differently stored pictures when I tried it years ago, but I don't remember anymore what the biggest problem was.

You need a good and stable internet connection while doing this, and if any other program interrupts the upload that can be a problem - and that upload can take quite a while, so are you sure that your editor is frozen or are you just impatient to wait?

EDIT: Delete the project that has no name from the cloudspace, and first try to upload without a thumbnail to make sure it is the picture and not something else that is blocking the upload to steam.
That picture will ONLY be used in the steam workshop, not locally.

Ok, I didn't know this was only for workshop.

This information will do. Thank you for the help.

Just beat the last of us 2 last night and starting jedi: fallen order right now, both use unreal engine & when I say i knew 80% of jedi's buttons right away because they were the same buttons as TLOU2 its ridiculous, even the same narrow hallway crawl and barely-made-it jump they do. Unreal Engine is just big budget RPG Maker the way they make games nearly identical at its core lol.
