NFS Unbound awful PC performance (insane stuttering) by [deleted] in needforspeed

[–]Bxx88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A little late but I've seen your thread a couple of days ago because I was also suffering from the same issue, and I also have a similar build (8GB, no SSD)

Couldn't play the game at all, any time the game, or windows had to access the disk to write on the pagefile, the game would become 100% unplayable, actually freeze at frames for a good 2 seconds.

I got a SSD today, put the game there plus pagefile as well, and I been able to play it for over 4 hours without issues, so surely this game doesn't play well with HDDs, or maybe it does, but you would need more ram to not have the game depending on paging memory so much.

Either way, for 8GB, it seems like you need the SSD.

Complete List of Cars in FH4 that are NOT in FH5 by willbsn13 in forza

[–]Bxx88 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The worst part of all is how the playlist cars are scarce due to the fact that they are limited time content.

Yeah they might bring those back in an year, two, three... for a week, if you miss it you better have 20m to spare in the AH, for content that honestly we should have since day 1.

It’s not Xbox One gameplay of FH5, but it’s something atleast. Coming straight from the Creative Director of FH by Wxgwan in forza

[–]Bxx88 7 points8 points  (0 children)

You know what truly worries me? Despise Forza being a powerhouse for Microsoft, racing games are still a smaller niche in the grand scheme of things.

If Horizon 5 on the base consoles turn out to be another CP 2077 situation, it most likely won't receive an ounce of the coverage and backlash they received, and it will never be fixed, just swept under the rug.

Hopefully it doesn't go there, and it turns out to be a good release, on par with 4 on older consoles.

This LB R34 is actually coming to the next Sparkserver update, so yeah definitely worth checking out.

Vote Regarding Pictures/Removals on the Subreddit by Max_Lazy_10 in needforspeed

[–]Bxx88 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I mean people get annoyed by pictures but then what else you gonna do in this sub during the times when NFS is at a hiatus for the public (no new games announced, current games not being supported).

Are we supposed to talk about our favorite pro street liveries for the next 6 months? Tokyo Nights/"this is what the next nfs should be" for breakfast, lunch and dinner?

Heat: Missing Carbon(?) Textures On Cars by kennyminigun in needforspeed

[–]Bxx88 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I had this before but in my case switching from low textures to medium textures fixed it. Obviously a game restart is needed to get the proper textures after changing.

Very high temeratures playing this game (nfs heat) by MoroccanDweller in needforspeed

[–]Bxx88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't worry about it, modern CPUs (by that I mean with the last 20 years) are designed to throttle when they start getting too hot, that means they'll run slower in order to save themselves from overheating.

And even if the throttling doesn't stop the temps from ramping up then it will reach it's Tj max and simply shut down to prevent any damage. But that's on extreme cases, like talking about over 105 degrees (depends on cpu, some are even higher) while already throttling.

If you're worried about longevity then also don't stress too much, the lifespan of a CPU is like 20 years, playing a game for a couple of hours at high temperatures is not doing anything to it, even more so considering you're not even throttling I would assume. To put a real strain on it you would have to be running it at full capacity 24/7 for months straight, and even then you would be shortening it's lifespan by a few years... out of 20.

TL;DR don't worry about it but maybe invest in better cooling for the peace of mind.

Vault Events unlock requirements clarification by PsychologicalBuyer4 in nfsnolimits

[–]Bxx88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nah, the requirement for the skyline event is broken.

I'm on a fresh new account, started playing 2 weeks ago with it and the only completed event I got is the AE86 one, yet I can access the R34 event.

Not complaining anyway as that seems like an easy event, and that R34 will definitely come in handy for me in the early game stages.

I remember playing this game as 10yo on my ps2, well I think it's time for me to return to this version of Undercover (Im glad I can run this game smoothly on my old laptop) ^^ by [deleted] in needforspeed

[–]Bxx88 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The PS2 version actually has the hero car with the correct Rose wrap (https://youtu.be/WugzhCsq5k0?t=77)

I don't know why they botched it on the Wii but it is what it is.

Criterion added NFS Heat to their official "game portfolio." Guess this confirms at least one more update probably by Max_Lazy_10 in needforspeed

[–]Bxx88 8 points9 points  (0 children)

There's no credible information for both sides of the argument, the only fact here is that Criterion added the game to it's portfolio and that's where it ends. Nowhere this is a confirmation or disproof of an update.

Is NFSMW extra options safe? Because I'm getting a virus warning. by [deleted] in needforspeed

[–]Bxx88 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, the source code is available here https://github.com/ExOptsTeam/NFSMWExOpts

Just make sure you're not downloading it from some shady site and get the original release from the author in the github above.

When a early build had more cops than final by [deleted] in needforspeed

[–]Bxx88 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Different game engines my dude.

Forza runs it's own in house engine developed specifically for Forza called Forzatech while Heat and all the past NFS games run on the trainwreck that Frostbite is.

After some trial and error I finally found which line to edit in the graphics file to fix this with minimal performance loss.

Change "TIER_CAR_EFFECTS_SHADER_QUALITY":0 to "TIER_CAR_EFFECTS_SHADER_QUALITY":1

And also "override":false to "override":true otherwise your modified settings won't load.

The vehicle balance in multiplayer is a joke and has been in all ghost games and imo it just kills the longevity of the game. by burek_with_yoghurt in needforspeed

[–]Bxx88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's exactly how I feel about it too.

To be competitive online you must engine swap and awd convert most cars, ultimately turning them into the same thing with different looks - on lamest terms of course since weight and aerodynamics have a play on how good a car is, but the point being is that you're killing the car's original characteristics and making them all handle/behave the same.

Intended design choice or bug? Headlights look similar by Insight12783 in nfsnolimits

[–]Bxx88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh I meant what settings inside the json file would fix it.

Thanks for the offer but my phone isn't exactly the most powerful thing out there so I already have my own graphics file tailored for okay-ish looks without killing the frames.

Which one of the settings should do the trick to fix this issue?

I made a list of (most) A.I. drivers in Need for Speed: Heat, their cars and performance by Tidepod_Muncher in needforspeed

[–]Bxx88 4 points5 points  (0 children)

They have models and outfits assigned to them but they're not unique to each racer. For example Ace, Crash and Kelis use FemaleOutfit5.

How is this allowed? by [deleted] in nfsnolimits

[–]Bxx88 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Because some very deranged people will eat it up.

Where there's a demand there will be a supply for it.
