Game Lags So Much

[Joseph is packin]

I have a very good gaming computer but the game lags so much. I don't know why. I have a Asus Rog Strix, 16 GB ram, nvidia geforce gtx 1050, i7 7th gen, and it still lags. WHY!?!?!?

What kind of lags do you have? Can you describe it in more details?

The game just doesn’t run smoothly. That’s all, not smooth

So, how can that be fixed. I tried almost everyway

Hello.

Please note that laptops (any) are not officially supported.

You can try advices below, but we cannot guarantee correct game working on laptops.

First of all make sure the game is running on a dedicated video card:

Maybe the game uses the integrated one for some reason. Try forcing the game to the dedicated one – right click on the game shortcut and select Run with GPU <your dedicated video card>. Or if you don’t have this option in the context menu, you can follow these advices – https://www.techadvisor.co.uk/how-to/pc-components/how-set-default-graphics-card-3612668/

And update the video card driver.

Also quite often perfomance problems may be result of the game configuration files overflow and sometimes – third-party mods also may ruin the performance too.

Therefore, first of all try these steps:

1. Unsubscribe from all mods.

2. Uninstall the game in Steam.

3. Manually delete the folder, where the game has been installed (it will remain after uninstallation) – …\Steam\SteamApps\common\City Car Driving

4. Turn off the Steam cloud profile synchronization for City Car Driving – open your Steam client, click on City Car Driving with right mouse button and choose “Properties” from the context menu. Then open the tab “Updates” and there turn off the option “Enable Steam Cloud synchronization for City Car Driving”.

5. Delete the folder "Forward Development" from your "My Documents" folder.

6. Install the game again.

7. After all above turn off Vertical Sync in both places - the game settings and your video card settings.

Hello, i'm writing about a similar problem that everyone above has. My pc is ryzen 5 2600 and 1060 6 gb. When i start free roaming (no matter with a third party mod or a car from the game) i start at around 80 fps and it starts gradually dropping every 5 seconds with 3-4 fps until it reaches 10 fps and becomes unplayable. I have tried everything listed above + everything i found in the forums. Please help me if possible cause this is one of my favorite games

Disable Steam Cloud sync in simulator properties in Steam Client and delete \Documents\forward development\City Car Driving Steam\config\ folder

And if I want to reinstall the game after formatting the PC, would it be possible to have the actual progress of the game if Steam Cloud isn't turned on?

Hi there! I’m having some trouble with my game. Whenever I connect my steering wheel, my game freezes or lags. But when I disconnect it, everything works fine. Do you have any suggestions on how to fix this?

Hello,

1. Update your wheel driver and reset the game settings:

- Turn off the Steam cloud profile synchronization for City Car Driving – open your Steam client, click on City Car Driving with right mouse button and choose “Properties” from the context menu. Then open the tab “Updates” and there turn off the option “Enable Steam Cloud synchronization for City Car Driving”.

- Delete the folder "Forward Development" from your "My Documents" folder.
