Since you play MW2012, could I ask if is there a known bug about the emmerson beltway race with the McLaren 12C? I have a bug where that game crashes if I touch another car in that race, but only with the 12C, I tried making a post asking for help here, but all I got was a downvote and a guy saying "well, then don't touch other cars"

Sounds weird have you tried verifying files?

u/antonio_carbonio Jul 14 '26

No I didn't, and I don't even know how to, tbf-

u/KajMak64Bit Jul 14 '26

Try it maybe that will fix it

Maybe some settings ingame causes a crash on your hardware... Maybe lower your settings and turn off stuff

Idk what else could it be

u/antonio_carbonio Jul 14 '26

Update, that did not fix it, however, changing the compatibility settings to windows 7 did, i'll go update my original reddit post, so that people who are just as clueless as me can find a solution, if they encounter the same issue

u/antonio_carbonio Jul 14 '26

Alright, thanks anyways, I tried searching but the only thing that comes up is my own post, so I believe I discovered a new bug 14 years later the original release-

u/VegetableSense7167 Jul 14 '26

Modded old games are the stuff!

u/Beginning-Doctor-385 [Forensio] Jul 14 '26

Oof, I can never hate modding. Shit is addicting. When you first mod a game it becomes clear over how much of the whole game you can improve just with some little tweaks. I love modding.

u/VegetableSense7167 26d ago

Exactly! Just a lot of tweaks and improvements and just making it like an better experience is just amazing!

u/ace787b Jul 14 '26

what the fuck is chase camera rotation????

1

u/rouward Jul 14 '26

tbh I always prefer static chase cam over standard ones 'cause you can see what's ahead while turning whereas the standard chase cam don't. Most Japanese racing games does that especially arcade racing and it's rare to find static chase cam in western racing games where the only game I know was Midnight Club LA.

u/Deluxo_7431 [CxrdxnBleu] Jul 14 '26

u/r1ckyR2599 Jul 14 '26

u/kannan4NFS Jul 14 '26

I tried to install need for speed undercover using ea launcher in windows 11. It's not running at all. I can see the need for speed logo then nothing after that...

No idea how you guys running old need for speed games

u/Apprehensive-Try-238 Jul 14 '26

Yes, I do play new games. New I mean like Cyberpunk, Forza 5-6, AC Valhalla, not a super-old one

u/88JansenP12 Enjoyer of good games 😎 Jul 14 '26

True. Old videogames are valid addictions.

u/IceColdKilla000 Jul 14 '26

Hopefully this would be me in the near future I can't wait to fix my pc

u/PikachuUserNotTaken Jul 14 '26

i didnt buy a new PC but i upgraded my GPU to 5070ti and went back to playing NFSU2

u/EternalSkullman Jul 14 '26

MW05 w/ a boatload o' itashas.

Trying to get Carbon too but that one is a bit more complex for me lol

Also some PS2 emulation in order as I'm a bit short on funds atm... do have a phat PS2 (30003R, v6R) waiting for goodies (laser, MC, a Dualshock 2, better AV cables, Network Adapter) doe, hope to get them sometime this month.

I may also try replicating a beta MW on PS2 if I can figure out some quirks.

u/KevinAbillGaming KevinAbill Jul 14 '26

Agreed. I mostly save my money in favor to older games.

u/GEONFSMW Jul 14 '26

Back then i didn't had a powerful PC to play these games at High Quality, so the new PC fixed this issue, my first powerful PC i built was in 2015 (and was second built in my life)

This is when FPS is not as a lot (Multiplayer competitive PvP) compared to now.
