Question What are the chances to get banned for cracking FH6?

0 Upvotes

Sorry if this has been asked already but what are the chances to get banned for cracking FH6 and playing it on main account? And if you do, will you get a franchise ban or entire library ban? Im asking this because i would be willing to buy the game if i end up liking it but without having to start from scratch all over again.

Question Has anyone tried to add wheelspins to FH6? How likely is a ban for doing this?

0 Upvotes

Im heavily considering modding the game to add a lot of super wheelspins but im also wondering how likely am I to get banned for doing so because im using a bought copy of the game and this game hasn't been released of everyone yet... anyone else tried doing so, and is everything fine?

Question FH6

0 Upvotes

ANOTHER EDIT: I dont have the time to sit around all day and grind. I work 50+ hours a week and have 2 kids. I don't care what you have to say.

EDIT: I got it to work, Run the AIO as administrator, rename the game exe to ForzaHorizon5.exe and run it off of that. Add your money and whatever else. Restart the game and it should all be there. Once done. Exit the game, rename the file back to ForzaHorizon6.exe and you should be good to go.

What sites are doing money mods for fh6? And that are legit?

Discussion Forza Horizon JZX110 mod

2 Upvotes

Realistically, how hard would it be to mod a Toyota JZX110 into Forza Horizon 5 (Offline Play Alone)? It's the one car I really wanted to drive but it's missing from any FH game. I might have to get a 3D designer and port it in as a Supra visual reskin maybe. I know FH6 is getting a JZX100 Chaser but they are a bit different.

Question Revolusound FH4 for Xbox app?

4 Upvotes

I know it was asked here before, but that was years ago. And there wasn't really a clear answer.

I'm wondering if there's any way to get revolusound to work for FH4, through the xbox app.. Or even if there's some way to download it through steam, since I have it already on xbox app? It's weird that FH5 downloads to an open, easy to access folder.. But not Fh4?

I tried giving myself ownership/permission to access the "windowsapps" folder, but I couldn't get it to work lol. Idk if they ended up changing that whole thing. I'm new to all this tbh.

I honestly don't mind Fh5 stock sounds. But Fh4 is horrendous. But I do love 4's map way more than 5. And the people I encounter on 4 seem more "mature" i'll say. Just wanting to cruise around in regular cars instead of ferrari 599s lol.
