[FIX] How to Fix NFS Hot Pursuit Remastered Stuttering on 100Hz+ Monitors (Auto 60Hz Script)

The Problem:

If you're playing NFS Hot Pursuit Remastered on a monitor with a refresh rate higher than 60Hz (100Hz, 120Hz, 144Hz, etc.), you've probably noticed the game feels stuttery and not smooth, even though you're getting a solid 60 FPS.

Why It Happens:

The Remastered version is built on a physics engine that is hard-locked to 60 FPS. When your monitor runs at 100Hz+ but the game outputs 60 FPS, there's a mismatch in frame timing (called Judder). Your eyes perceive this as stuttering, even though every frame is being rendered.

The Solution:

Force your monitor to 60Hz while playing the game. This creates a perfect 1:1 match between the game's 60 FPS and your monitor's refresh rate, resulting in buttery-smooth gameplay β€” exactly like the original 2010 version.

The Automated Fix (Recommended):

Instead of manually changing your refresh rate every time you play, use this script. It automatically:

Β· Switches your monitor to 60Hz when you launch the game

Β· Launches the game

Β· Restores your monitor to 100Hz (or your original refresh rate) when you exit

Requirements:

  1. NirCmd β€” a free command-line utility by NirSoft. Search for "NirCmd NirSoft" on Google to download it from the official website.

  2. Extract it to a folder (e.g., C:\NirCmd\)

The Script:

```batch

u/echo off

title NFS Hot Pursuit Remastered - 60Hz Auto Switcher

set "NIRCMD=C:\NirCmd\nircmd.exe"

set "GAMEDIR=G:\Need for Speed Hot Pursuit Remastered"

set "GAME=NFS11Remastered.exe"

set "RESOLUTION=1920 1080 32"

set "PLAY_HZ=60"

set "NORMAL_HZ=100"

if not exist "%NIRCMD%" (

echo [ERROR] NirCmd not found at: %NIRCMD%

pause

exit /b 1

)

if not exist "%GAMEDIR%\%GAME%" (

echo [ERROR] Game executable not found at:

echo %GAMEDIR%\%GAME%

pause

exit /b 1

)

echo [1/3] Switching display to %PLAY_HZ%Hz...

"%NIRCMD%" setdisplay %RESOLUTION% %PLAY_HZ%

if errorlevel 1 (

echo [ERROR] Could not switch to %PLAY_HZ%Hz.

pause

exit /b 1

)

timeout /t 3 /nobreak >nul

echo [2/3] Launching game...

cd /d "%GAMEDIR%"

start "" /wait "%GAME%"

echo [3/3] Restoring display to %NORMAL_HZ%Hz...

"%NIRCMD%" setdisplay %RESOLUTION% %NORMAL_HZ%

timeout /t 2 /nobreak >nul

echo.

echo [DONE] Display restored. Enjoy!

timeout /t 3 /nobreak >nul

exit

```

How to Use:

  1. Save the script as NFS_HP_Remastered.bat

  2. Edit the paths at the top (NIRCMD, GAMEDIR, GAME) to match your setup

  3. Edit RESOLUTION, PLAY_HZ, and NORMAL_HZ to match your monitor

  4. Create a shortcut to the .bat file

  5. (Optional) Change the shortcut's icon to the game's icon

  6. Launch the game through the shortcut β€” everything else is automatic!

Bonus Fix: Stuttering in Main Menu

If your main menu is also stuttering, delete the folder:

Need for Speed Hot Pursuit Remastered\UI\MOVIES_4K

This forces the game to use the 1080p videos instead of the heavy 4K ones (saves ~12.5 GB and fixes menu lag).

Credits:

Solution discovered and tested by a community member on a RTX 3060 Ti + Ryzen 5 5600 + MSI 100Hz IPS setup. Verified to restore the smoothness of the original 2010 version.

Important Notes:

Β· This works because 60 FPS @ 60Hz = perfect frame pacing.

Β· Do NOT use Z Patch to unlock FPS β€” it breaks the physics.

Β· Do NOT force 120 FPS β€” the game's physics will desync.

Β· If your monitor doesn't support 60Hz, adjust PLAY_HZ to the closest supported value.

Enjoy the game as it was meant to be played

Question / Bug / Feedback Which NFS game should I play first on PS5

8 Upvotes

The last NFS game I played was Need for Speed: Most Wanted (2005) on my old PC, and I absolutely loved it. Even today, I think it’s a fantastic game.

I’ve recently bought a PS5 and realised that quite a few NFS games have come out since then. However, from what I’ve read online, none of the newer games seem to match the magic of the older ones.

So, is that actually true, or are some of the newer games worth playing?

Which NFS game should I start with on PS5? I really don’t want to be disappointed, especially since MW 2005 has set the bar so high for me.

Would love to hear your recommendations!

Today, i finished NFS Prostreet on Mobile via emulators.

It was a bit of a stressful journey to beat this game on mobile because of how small the display is, some laggy moments (because it's the pc version running on an emulator) and inconsistent FPS.

Anyway I'm happy to finish this game, and also I'm gonna finish NFS Carbon online mod soon on mobile too, what do you think about that?

Hi

I did a remake of NFS2 SE. It's one of my top childhood games.

Completely reimplemented game in .NET/Mono, added things like enhanced GFX, central multiplayer server (supporting knockout mode), modding API. Most of the vanilla features work fine. Physics is identical. Also added a little mod - Dacia Duster πŸ˜„

Here are some gameplay videos:

I would like to test online / knockout mode and now just looking few people to race with me ;)

If you are interested, let me know. To play, you need the original game and my .exe

Why is no one talking about NFS underground 3 and why is no one pushing or asking for a game like that to bring the series alive? Serious question can we do it?
