SimRacing General: successor to Forza/Gran Turismo/Racing thread - Games

[QUOTE=Runar;51136900]Oh. Apparently you need a DX12 graphics card to run FH3. Oops.[/QUOTE] If your card is old enough to not even support DX12, big chance that it wouldnt've been able to run H3 anyway :v:

[QUOTE=Zotobom;51137007]If your card is old enough to not even support DX12, big chance that it wouldnt've been able to run H3 anyway :v:[/QUOTE] Was going to say this, few cards did get DX12 upgrades via drivers but if it was never given the support later down the path, theres no way it would be able to run it even if it did. AMD and nVidia don't tend to bother giving older low/mid range cards API updates.

[QUOTE=Psygo;51137005]you can force it by doing it manually though.[/QUOTE] Nah this seems to be a really isolated issue. There's a thread on the windows support forums and the only "fix" right now was to reinstall windows using the media creation app, and it'll grab the updates fine during the windows installation. I did that and it worked. Still, for £50, that's annoying to need to go through.

for what reason do windows store apps not show up in the volume mixer. jeeeeez.

[QUOTE=Runar;51136900]Oh. Apparently you need a DX12 graphics card to run FH3. Oops.[/QUOTE] Can it run on my 4096MB ATI AMD Radeon R9 380 Series?

[QUOTE=SoUl_ReApEr2;51136921]Can't run it cause of old specs or crashing?[/QUOTE] Massive lag. 750ti 2gb 4gb RAM Phenom II X4 945 3.0ghz I currently have everything low, shadows off, running 1280x720. Is there anything else I can try?

So I made a car skin for iRacing that I'm gonna be using this season. [t]https://i.imgur.com/hhQ4DWk.jpg[/t] (yes it's from [URL="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2_zAxPqKa8Y"]that game[/URL])

[QUOTE=Lord of Boxes;51137236]Can it run on my 4096MB ATI AMD Radeon R9 380 Series?[/QUOTE] It's a recent and relatively high-end card. Why would it not?

some pics i took in the crew [t]http://i.imgur.com/EJMWDWk.png[/t] [t]http://i.imgur.com/nz43DQF.png[/t]

after the train race i started to get terrible hitching, anyone else had a problem like that?

Forza runs like shirt for me. 30-50fps on a gtx 980. 4790k. What do I do? No difference between high or medium

[QUOTE=PieClock;51136443]Can someone answer a few "Play Anywhere" questions I have? I'm not a massive racing fan but enjoy it. My younger brother is and is a huge Forza fan. I play on PC, he plays on Xbox. - If I purchase it on his Xbox I get it automatically by signing into his XBL account, right? - If we're both on the same account, can we have different profiles in-game, so our progress is separate?[/QUOTE] Make a profile on his Xbox and log into that on your pc. That [I]should[/I] work

My game's ran about flawlessly ever sense I disabled the first core for the game & set the game to high priority in the task manager. I believe the issue is with the game & the file decryption DRM maxing out your CPU's first core.

so I just tried doing the into race and i had to do a hard reset due to it crashing [editline]1st October 2016[/editline] now the game tells me my VRAM isn't enough constantly, and my frame rate is terrible, so is the input lag

[QUOTE=redBadger;51137730]Can you link how to do this?[/QUOTE] Open task manager, go to details, find the Horizon application, right click, set priority, high, right click again, set affinity, deselect first core. I'm not sure disabling the first core will help anything though.

setting the priority to low can stop the stutters for some people too.

[QUOTE=Crumpet;51137211]for what reason do windows store apps not show up in the volume mixer. jeeeeez.[/QUOTE] You can use [URL="https://github.com/File-New-Project/EarTrumpet"]this app[/URL] from what I've seen on Reddit.

Hoping this gets fixed, it's kinda ridiculous.

$90.38 (after 13% Ontarian HST) seems pretty steep for the [B]standard edition[/B] of this game. Is there any way of getting it cheaper?

[QUOTE=ProfHappycat7;51137442]some pics i took in the crew[/QUOTE] The Crew is another game I love taking pictures in I just wish the camera focus worked more like the one in Forza.

How do barn finds work? I found the one it shows you in story mode, and I've found a few more barns that look like that, but nothing happens.

[QUOTE=laserpanda;51138720]How do barn finds work? I found the one it shows you in story mode, and I've found a few more barns that look like that, but nothing happens.[/QUOTE] Warren will randomly tell you were one is and it will add a purple circle on your map. If the circle isnt on the map and you find a barn nothing will happen.

is my hardware not up to spec or is it the game? i'm trying to run on low and i get lots of input lag, stuttering, general framedrops, etc even though i'm running somewhat capable hardware for reference; my specs are this: GPU: 2047MB NVIDIA GeForce GTX 960 CPU: Intel Core i5 4460 @ 3.20GHz RAM: 8.00GB Single-Channel DDR3 @ 799MHz (going to swap out soon (rn it's a single stick of 8, swapping out for 2x4 8gb 1600mz))

How do you unlock the Robin in FH3?

[QUOTE=laserpanda;51138858]How do you unlock the Robin in FH3?[/QUOTE] It's a barn find. So you'll just have to hope they send you to it.

[QUOTE=Shadaez;51138861]have you tried disabling core 0 for FH3?[/QUOTE]nope, i haven't, i'll try it later
