I'm always scared to overclock my cpu!

As long as your cooling is good and you're sensible with the overclock limits and settings, the worst that can happen is you'd need to reset your BIOS settings manually and start from scratch.

(And even when your cooling is not good, you risk very little as the CPUs have overheat protection.)

You might have to check if the settings have changed, same happened with 0.6, once back with the previous settings VR was back to normal.

Thanks, good suggestion, I checked and the settings had carried over. To be certain I ran the game normally in full 4K (all good), then went back to VR and set all the video settings as before (and tried a few changes to see if I could improve things). Nothing seemed to make much difference. I don't know why but even with just one car on track the distance has lost all sharpness and become fuzzy (much worse image than GT Sport on PSVR for example) where previously all was fine. I've also noticed the menus and onscreen text is now unreadable too so something has changed significantly for me. The up close image in the car is good and the huD menus and dials are readable. The game is holding a steady 45fps as before but the distance fuzziness makes it near unplayable at the moment.

I cannot believe the amount of fatal errors i'm getting. Haven't finished one sessions yet!

The driving is amazing though. I love it

I was until.........

"Searching servers....."

"an error occured - Please try again"

Not impressed

They're having some launch day issues with the servers...

Posted by Minolin over at the ACC forums:

18:30hrs: Update successfull, though the HUGE amount of drivers gave us some extra work, reducing the ability to reliably work with Ratings and MP.
Should be a lot better now, I hope we can lift off and enjoy 1.0 now

19:21hrs: ok even more drivers joining in, I had to disable several functions.
Server is doing his best to store rating relevant data and respond MP data requests as quick as possible.

Now: sadly more work was required, but now we see a slow-but-stable backend, making it possible to drive in MP and rank up in Ratings.

You can adjust controls while on track! Yay!

[ouvert]

havent followed ACC during EA at all .. feature and contentwise it seems good.
Is FFB better than AC ? or more or less the same

Edit: Okay, I was just being stupid, it's Zolder I saw

I have Zandvoort in my track list, although haven't tried it yet, my download was 6.6GB

So now I'm really confused?? Is Zandvoort available now or not???? I dont see it in my Tracklist

No

Just had a massive fatal error in Monza server

"Fatal error" is the corporate identity of this product.

 

[REDRANGERPWNZ]

How is antyaliasing for you guys? It looks REALLY bad on my pc (aa on max + temporal), every track shimmers like Paul Ricard now, lol. Hope it's not a UE4 thing, because driving feels fun.

 

[DonZmeuheu]

No

Thank you....for an answer that also I understand

 

[A3DR]

who's excited?

Not me.

 

[BrainsBush]

ACC looks, sounds and drives incredible. Only in VR have had several fatal errors and even had to hard reset my PC twice.

Terrible too, almost as bad as PCars 1 & 2

That was exactly my thought, I didn't want to say it.

That's deferred rendering engines for you.
