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

It unlocks after a while and tells you you can get x time free groove(I assume it tells you this if you don't have it already)

Alright I caved and spent the extortionate £50, sold my cs knife to cover the cost so I feel less bad about spending that much on a game that might not even run properly

I'm on a 2500k with a GTX 770, Apex runs fairly well so I'm hoping this will run similarly?

gonna be in for a bad surprise

[BoyMilk]

if your computer has the anniversary update for windows 10, and directx 12 support the game will run, but not the way you think it will. this goes for for exactly everybody. everybody is having the same problems running the game right now, and unfortunately you will too!

[redBadger]

Game runs mostly fine for me now....60fps on high. Maybe it gets better over time? I'm so confused

Running a similar setup to me but weaker card, expect drops into the 40s, the CPU management in the game is a joke currently.

Because the handling is terrible It's still C level despite being twice the speed of the cars it matches you with.[/QUOTE]

I have a few cars like this in Horizon 2, the Mercedes-Benz 190 E 2.5-16, and also that 80's model BMW 2000. The Mercedes is S1 and tuned perfectly, it launches with literally no tire spin, and it's faster than every single car in its class except for a few people I've met with the Shelby Daytona (and considering it's a $3,000,000 car that handles like a banana with wheels, not a lot of people use it). It's awesome.

The BMW is A class and is also stupid fast for its' class, but it's got some really bad understeer I can't seem to correct

hows it class c when you buy the bodykit its A800 and drives almost perfectly

[TheAdmiester]

[QUOTE=waylander;51142548]hows it class c when you buy the bodykit its A800 and drives almost perfectly[/QUOTE]

That's the upgrade preset which installs performance mods. You can install the bodykit alone from the conversion menu, near the engine swaps, then tune the car yourself.

I don't mind drops into the 40s honestly, I want it to be playable. I've played forza games on console before where it's 30 fps and as long as it's a consistent 30 I don't really mind

We shall see eh

[Galactic S.O.U.L]

There isn't any trouble with online on PC compared to Xbox One? So I can play without paying for anything besides the game itself

loving this game so far but I hope I can get good at the photo editor and make my pictures look sharper than this :'(

Its playable, you'll just get fps dips into the 40s and you will stutter in the city, but everyone gets that.

[Shadaez]

I'm on a 670 and the city is smooth, have more problems in whatever the starting area is called

[editline]2nd October 2016[/editline]

but still overall smooth, cause I set lsass priority to high

Apparently it's a bug in the photo mode of the PC version, everything comes out looking like upscaled 720p or something

Are the refunds for Forza H3 still going on?

as I said before, I put v12 with turbos to fj40, it made over 1000kw power, still C class

[editline]3rd October 2016[/editline]

Weird how everyone is complaining about it running like shit, I got the new drivers and had it running like shit, which I expect

[editline]3rd October 2016[/editline]

~does smooth 50fps until I drive at 200 miles per hour and it has to load too many things
then it just dies. or maybe even before that. just shit fps :(

[Paleman]

Anyone else have an insanely laggy garage? Flicking between upgrade parts is jittery and slow for me. Elsewhere I'm maintaining 30 fps most of the time which is acceptable but not good enough, hope with the working week starting now a patch is released

yeah the game is fine, but holy shit going stuff like looking at rims I have to look at them 1/60 frame of a time

[editline]3rd October 2016[/editline]

It just freeze's for no reason

How do you export your photos?

[Nikpo]

[QUOTE=redBadger;51143864]How do you export your photos?[/QUOTE]

I pull mine from the Forza Hub app

[laserpanda]

That's the only way I've found to do it. Kinda annoying since it doesn't send them to the app if you don't go through the whole sharing thing.

Speaking of the hub, does it only measure online activity or something? Mine shows me at 0 miles driven, 0 cars owned.

[Reagy]

God fuck people who use only X rated cars in online races, no fun allowed when someone uses one of those.

[Nikpo]

Pretty disappointed in the body options for the R32 (there's none) so I settled for an R33

They really need to fix the blurriness & artifacting from the photo mode :(

Yes, I just refunded mine on MS support, they were very OK with me returning it
