Anyways im Bummed out,I Hope Mike Knows what i can do about this,
This also happend when i put all the Grafic specs on Low, then i turned them back up on Medium,and still does this Crash :o
Ive even Replaced the Exe, with the one on the Dvd still Nothen Thx! EA :mad: :rolleyes: :p
Ok just an Fyi, I had Reinstall the Game to Fix my Exe Problem.
Whats the EA Manager do anyway?.
So i didnt Update the Game Online, This time an the exe seems Fine.?
I havent Tried ,my Old save yet thats Located in My Documents.
It also puts this other Programs Folder, Inside your C: Drive
So i had take that out Manually. Before Reinstall.
Anyway,just wanted say im back up running again. :cool:
I wished there was a Way to Turn off the Music, in Replay Mode?
I have my Music off in Settings. Would be better.
So Thats my 2 Cents cya.
Yeah my game was Fixed and it did it again,.? :((
Stupid Corrupted Exe.? :p
I have an EA Rep,Tech guy Helping me by
Email on this..My Video Card is Updated
And i have over the Min Specs so what gives
:{ :rolleyes:
Get a console, you'll enjoy it more
EA have done these newer NFS game to cater best to the consoles rather than PC's
Could be True,yeah, i was reading about all that last night on EA Site,and i was Reading what 100's others on Pc have my same prpblem. Its a Grafics Glitch/Bug, in there and Corrups are Save Game. Ive Learned how to hack the Career_Inro_Bik file, just rename that and that Long talking stuff go's away also im trying to Hack out my Replay Music. I want to Hear,the Cars not there Music.
I was able to play to Tier 2 last night was Great!
Im starting to get the hang of what this game screws with me, like lol
Dont Touch your Grafic Res,setting after or it will Crash out. Alot
I cant do any Car Upgrades at all, so far does the same thing.
So you have the Console TS?
I'm saving money to get a console, it's cheaper than if I were to get all the parts and build a PC that could run shift this year, but not the new nfs that comes around next year
So whats the New NFS Insane Game Like next year? :)
I cant Wait to get a Motorcycle Mod, or 57`Chevy in this Shift Game, some day? :bigthumb:
my PC can't even run HP2!! Woo! No luck for me :P
Sorry too, hear that FM :( Dang
I still need the Patch to fix my Game.
I wished EA would make it Faster,. :squint:
Hi its me again, the maker of the Thread,. So i Really like that "Perfect Line" Road Markers,. They Really Help me slow down! LoL
It's a Great Invention EA did? :eek3:
I Turned off my Music is Replay Mode! H00T!
I mean i Took it Outta There, :bigthumb:
Anyways, ive been doing my Chores also. ;)
Them Loaner Cars are Fun! How often can we ever use them?
Just in Quick Race,i Guess?
Quote from: FerrariManmy PC can't even run HP2!! Woo! No luck for me :P
lol same here!
Yeah man, I have a somewhat newer pc now, and it probably could run maybe NFSHP2, perhaps NFS UG, but I'm not too sure about any NFS game after that.
I can run upto Undercover. Got a new PC. So lets hope I might run Shift too.
Mike,will you be adding any Screen Shots of the Day? For this Game,.?
I just was wondering?
_
@ Rs i think if you shut down alot back ground stuff in Task Manager,like i do and not be online, an Lower down your, DirectX to standerd Sound, you can gain more FPS, i have i get about 25 now on Medium All, settings.
See if i change them to Low at all, the Game Just Crashs on the Exe :o of course
I get something around 30fps (2xAA at 1440x900, and everything high), so I can play at times, specially when I'm alone in the track (or in first position), but racing against 20 people is impossible, it lows down to 20fps and I can't control my handling at all.
I found it too difficult this game, plus I don't like the customization mode. I mean, I can't stay to longer adding vinyls till it looks good. Can't they made a copy-paste system to avoid making the same thing twice (right and left), and why stripe vinyls are too short?
Anyway, the game looks great, but I don't have much time these days...
30fps how you get that bud? I wished i could i havent done a Race with 20 Cars yet just 8 or 9 so far? Whats your Specs like Jaume. So you have any Crashs on the Exe,or just the game it self at all yet?
I just Like Medium Settings,better. When do you ever get 20 Cars in a Race what Mode or Tier Race? :eek3: :)
I think I had 19 opponents in an invitational event with a Veyron race...It was impossible to handle because of the speed of the car and the framerate I get.
About my specs, well I have a 8800GT, 2gb of ram, and an AMDx2 6400 (I think is called like this), it's not that amazing but it's good enough to handle new games.
Sometimes in car battles I get around 45 fps and the game looks way better, but I hate to play at 2x of Antialiasing, too annoyng for me.
Plus I still thinking it's very hard, I'm playing at easy and I'm still loosing some races. I guess that my gamepad has something to do (there's a "sometimes not functioning" button)
Hey Jaume how do yah :D I Cant see how you ever get 45 Fps at all?
I been doing Brands Hatch, Track that only allows 15 Cars Max on there in Quick Race? Also i didnt get any Fps Reduction, at all and that was Great?
Yes! I think the AI, on Easy is Very Conpetitive :/
Its not so bad really but in Career Mode i know it's Worse,Harder.
Yes, again im having Steering Problems also with my 11 Button Game Pad :{
Ive Been doing some Fine Tuning have you at all in Driver settings?
Well i give it about 80% Stiffness on sway bars.
and Turned up my Grip an, those others have you yet?
I dont think they let us in Career Mode huh?
_
Guess what Im getting this Black Sky stuff, all the time in Game Bah? :rolleyes:
My Video Card is Updated etc? And when i approach Corners now
my Fps gets even lower what Gives man? i hope they make a Patch soon
That Fixes all this? :eek3:
yup, I'm having 45 fps sometimes, and even greater results in indy tracks.
I'm starting to enjoy the quick races, I didn't know you can earn money too.
Plus I've changed the music files, I mean the one with real tracks (racing and drifting) for the useless one from the menu, so now I have music in the menu!
I'm 15 now and I have a great doubt...What tier 3 car should I buy. I need a Japanese to do some japan series in tier 2, so maybe I should buy one Japanese tier 1 (g35) and make it good enough to compete in tier 2 and then a tier 3...
That G35 Car doesent handle so well for me
I like the Gtr Better :)
This maybe will be my Last Post about this Pos Game! I cant even Finished a Race is Career Mode, in Tier 2, Because the Game is TRASH! :(
The Car Slides all over the Place! And then Starts Bouncing up & Down what Kinda BS is that? :{ I want my $$ Back for this Crap Game... But they wont let me. Jerks because they think i just Copied, it was all. :o
Maybe by Next year they will have 11 Teen Patchs out for all this Messed up Game Has! And Better Game Pad Settings? Im very Dissapointed in this $52.00 Dollar Game thats Plays like Garbage. Thx EA :squint:
_
The only thing Good about this Game in in Quick Race.
Because Career Mode,Handling, Sucks!
Also i just got this Patch Today Adds a Mouse in Game,Etc.?
I havent Tried it out yet. Hope its Improves my Game.
http://s832.photobucket.com/albums/zz246/Wills_3rd/Game_Hassels/?action=view¤t=Shift_Patch_Installed_Hope_it_Helps.jpg
Have you tried it on a different computer? It could be your computer that's causing all these problems, not the game
Why you think im Rich and have 2 Pc's? Man i sure did a RANT, above this Am huh? ;) TS do you own this Game yet for Pc,?...
_Edited* Man i Love This Game now the Patch Must of Helped my Pc a Great Deal?
I Finally made it past Tier 2 lol
Ive won a few Tier 3 Races. There Tough also!.
So i Opoloigize to EA? For my Above Post,.. :rolleyes: ;}
Man that 911 GT`2 Porsche is so Sweet Sounding!
so is the GT`3 Im Just Glad the Game Hasent Crashed, since yesterday?
And umm, im Leaving my Grafic Setting alone Really. :eek3:
This Game makes my Heart Beat Fast!, Like a Heart Attack! Rite,RS? :D ;)
I'm confused...do you like or dislike the game?
I don't have crashes anymore, cause sometimes I get crashes but some time ago I figured out that after removing all the dirt from my Video card fan all worked fine...
I had the same problem with GRID and Resident Evil 5 (what an awesome game, btw).
I bought the Zonda R, so yeah, I'm in tier 4 right now, though I haven't made any race yet.
I recommend you the 30 lap race in the eight track from tier 3 (resistance)...it's very entertaining.
And amazingly as it might sound, I manged to make a +4 seconds drift...I couldn't believe it, my G35 was sliding perfectly and giving me a lot of points...The funny thing was that the score to beat after the 3rd round was my own score :bigthumb:
For now I'm giving this game a 7,5 from 10, despite the unbelievable 9 of IGN and XBOX magazine (I believe that they were probably paid to improve EA's image). After all, that's just an improved Pro Street without customization options.
:eek: Zonda R, I thought you didn't have Time for this Game,? :D
So how you get to Tier 4 so Fast ;} 30 Lap Race :eek3:
Sounds Really Long. Im in Tier`3 so Thats CooL Jaume :cool:
You said do i like the Game ,What? :D ;) :D ;) :D What?
Ok enough Smilies,.. Show me some Pics some day ok?
Also im getting 35 FPS, in my best part of the Race,Highest.
I Installed that EA Patch did you,how it help your Game?
I dont have any Mouse Pointer in there still? I think
that was a Joke or somthing? But, i have been Cleaning out
My Pc dusting it Regulary. But Since the Patch Job, it hasent Crashed
again :cool:
Yes i think the Game has been Over Rated by,IGN and XBOX
Np,.
Have a Good Day...
*Edited*
Yeah! i made it Here today Sweet!

Ok! I think we better change from topic... :p
It's becoming a very long discussion for "Who's next?" topic.
I've made some kind of screen tutorial to explain that Works thing.
Here it goes:
First you need to choose a Works car. You need to be sure about that W thing.
(http://img33.imageshack.us/img33/6581/works1a.jpg)
Second, Car must be fully upgraded. Everything.
(http://img33.imageshack.us/img33/7624/works2h.jpg)
Once you fully upgrade your car you'll see that buy works option is activated and you can buy it pressing the backspace.
(http://img38.imageshack.us/img38/1794/works3t.jpg)
Once installed you'll notice a change in appearance (mainly body) and a very important boost in performance.
(http://img43.imageshack.us/img43/650/works4.jpg)
And I think that's all. You should be able to do it with your Camaro or your Corvette (I have them both converted).
Good luck!
Hey, Jaume Thats Better! Well, i will take some pics later,I havent seen any them W's on any my Car Thumbs Logos Pics? So Starnge. Did you Install that EA Patch well i did maybe that has somthing to do with, my Probs?
Idk Thx for that anyways :cool: So you got 7 Million huh Heha
your Lucky I have fight Time, over my Pc with my women,and her Myspace Stuff :rolleyes: so its not Fair also.thx ;)
I finished the game two weeks ago. It's nice game, I like it more than undercover. It's not so hard game as others tell.
I am planning to get nfs nitro, it reminds of greatest nfs games ever, nfs3, nfs4, nfs6 etc. oldies.
It looks fun, i have wii, so I will play nitro.
Jaume.what im Confused about Is.. :ugh: Is says that Car is a Works car i Upgrade it Full 3rd and then hit Back space then the dang thing says it Cant be Converted to Works? It Just dont make sence to me so do u see a Diffrent Page at all of Upgrades to choose to or Not? For works.
Well or just them Blue Bars is all? I thought we could choose other skins and stuff for the Car and parts etc. I know this Talk is Getting Old ok. I just cant see Nothen Change :/ For them?
_
Oliver O. Yes i Like this Waay,Better than UC. Game :D Looks better, etd i have 3 Profiles in my Game now, and ive Hacked out the EA Intro God im Glad that Gone lol! Also ive installed this 100 Million Bucks at Game start Save, its so Fun! And it Comes with 6 Upgraded Sweet cars,1,2,3 Tier ones. but nothen is open in Career Mode its Just a Blast having this way and it Runs Great so Far. It was Called, AU Save? I just Renamed the File WiLL3, is all lol :cool:
we can call it Cheating, but its just cool ok. all that $$$ at Start.
Ok, Yeah i have the Audi S3 im Kicking Major but with that, i think this car has the Works done to it? Looks that way, not sure its rated 9.00 somthing for a Tier 1, Car I wished my women would let me Enjoy my Game Gah, stay single guys lol :bigthumb: ;)
(Womens Libb?)
Hey! To all those interested in playing Shift on PC, It really seems as the new Nvidia Drivers make a considerable boost in the game performance. I'm playing with everything in high plus 1990x1400 and x2 anti-aliasing and I'm getting from 45 to 60fps with my 8800gt. Also I'm playing under Windows 7 this time, but I don't think that's making any difference.
for me ambush cayon has two spots where any car i drive causes it to loose control and not master a corner but i turn off the forcefeed back off and corners are easier
So, what's the verdict? ;)
Do you like NFS: Shift or do you prefer the Classic NFS. I prefer NFS: High Stakes still, but there's a 1.86% chance that will change when I try Shift. :p
Still classic nfs, shift is more gran gran turismo than nfs.
I agree ;)
NFS:HS is my favorite :D . Why don't you ever race online?
So far for shift much like PS it's not really a true NFS game but many times better than any UG to carbon and UC style game.the rumor is the crieton games is going to make old style for next year how true this is not known butt they have a good rep for telling the truth.

Yes I heard that too, and there was a petition onlnie for making old nfs again, I was 33rd who signed petition, please more people sign here, you will se also at list:
http://www.petitiononline.com/nfsremak/petition.html
I sign up shift and PS is a good games but i'm sick of having to drift(stunt driving).Nfs has become a clone game ever since UG1 nothing special what so ever.Wow a honda with a bodykit,or a camaro with a nasty kit too.Nfs needs to go back to the real roots as if FnF movie never happen.
That's true, but I'm not sure how Criterion influence will affect the series...since they are more into arcade than simulation.
As long the street racing FnF theme goes away i been happy
Need for Speed started as simulator with The Need For Speed. NFS 2 was more arcadish and didn't have police but it was a lot funner. Pro Street wasn't a very good attempt at a sim and it's my least favourite NFS but I would still say it's alright. NFS Nitro is pretty cool but it got little promotion.
Thanks to a friend graciously lending me an Ati Radeon hd4650 card, last night I could finally run the Shift demo at a decent pace, and I certainly liked it (although I probably haven't played it enough to run into any bugs yet :p ).
It feels odd to ask such a noob question, but I hope someone can enlighten me, because Google doesn't help: does anyone know if the Shift Demo has a built-in screenshot function like the older games did? I have been pressing the F12 button frequently while watching the nicely cinematic (finally :bigthumb: ) replays, but I haven't been able to find any saved screencaps anywhere on my pc. Or am I gonna have to use Fraps or something for that? (I haven't tried if that works yet, I figured the function would be included like always). Thanks for any feedback.
I certainly doubt there's such a function. I also searched for it and I didn't find nothing so I used fraps.
Thanks for the reply. Fraps wouldn't work for me either, until I realized how old my version (the last one that was 100% free :p) was - as soon as I installed a recent version it worked fine.
Attached screenshot is nothing special, I'm just glad the demo actually runs and at a decent speed too. I do like the graphics of this game, the motion blur added to background and wheels in screengrabs maybe a somewhat artificial, but it does help give the impression of speed.
I guess that says something about the progress video cards have made through the years; the Radeon 4650 could be considered - with all respect- a low-to-mid range card by current standards and costs about one-third of what I paid for my Geforce 6600GT back in 2006 :hs: but the poor ol' GF did not know what to do with this demo (or with other recent games such as Colin McRae Dirt).
Edit: attachment no worky, Photobucket to the rescue:

No waay, Remko so you got the Game huh?
How you Like it? Nice pic :D ;)
Hey thanks, Will :) Don't have the full game yet, only been playing the demo so far.
I do like the feel of it, seems like a nice middle ground between sim and more forgiving arcade-y, real life tracks are a bonus too.
Don't know if I'll be playing the demo much longer though, mostly because of A: it refuses to remember your controller settings and B: that promotion video that it insist on showing EVERY time you finish a race - or even when you interrupt a race just to go back to the menu - and NO way to skip it, :mad: I must have sat through it over twenty times already.
But I think I may give the full game a try soon.
