Studio stuck in "Connecting to server..."

The Issue

Whenever I try to load up a place/experience that has team create enabled I am greeted with a window infinitely stuck in “Connecting to server…”. Places without team create open perfectly fine. However for most of my projects I am required to work in places with team create enabled.

Here is what attempting to connect to a place with team create currently looks like:

What I’ve tried

I have tried nearly everything:

  • Uninstalling and reinstalling Roblox and Roblox Studio multiple times
  • Deleting all Roblox related files
  • Updating my MacBook to the newest software
  • Uninstalling all plugins
  • Logging out of all accounts and only using my main account to log in
  • Ensuring I have a stable internet connection
  • Ensuring I am not using a VPN
  • Attempting to launch the place in studio via my browser

System Information

Device: MacBook Pro 13", M2, 2022
Chip: Apple M2
Software: macOS Sequoia 15.5

Expected behavior

The game should open, like always with team create…

Can you check your “Incoming Replication Lag” setting in Studio Settings?

You have set Studio to emulate your ping to be equivalent to 10,000 seconds. Unfortunately, due to a bug, this also applies to the Team Create server. Try setting it back to 0.

THANK YOU! That fixed the issue. I have no clue when I set it to 10,000 seconds. :sob:
I can finally resume working on my projects after being “locked out” for 3 days…
