First Forza Horizon 3 Patch is Here – Fixes Stuttering




/ 8 years ago

Forza Horizon 3

Forza Horizon 3 is already off to a great start, but as with any game launch, there were a few hiccups to be fixed. The first patch addresses quite a few problems, but the most important one is that it fixes the framerate stuttering issues on Windows 10. If you used unlocked or high framerates, this was quite an annoying problem, but today’s patch should fix that up for you.

There’s also a few additional options for control options, allowing for better setup and support for steering wheels.

Check out the full change log below:

Windows 10

  • Fixed a performance issue on Windows 10 that caused stuttering with high or unlocked framerates on certain hardware configurations
  • Improved stability on Windows 10
  • Disable mouse move detection while driving
  • The Windows 10 video options screen will no longer ask users to save when no changes have been made
  • Additional options have been added to the Windows 10 Advanced Controller Menu. These include:
    • Steering wheel sensitivity
    • Invert Force Feedback
    • Centre spring scale
    • Damping scale
  • Fixed a problem where pre-order cars and the Halo Warthog were not appearing in the Windows 10 version of the game for some players

Wheel Improvements

  • Logitech G27 is now registered correctly on Windows 10, so the correct default mapping will be applied
  • All wheels with enough buttons have had the horn added to their default mappings on Windows 10
  • Fix to dead zones for acceleration and braking axes on wheels
  • Default mappings for all TX Racing Wheel variants
  • Fixed a bug where custom input mappings would not save successfully

General Improvements
