    Does anyone else get freezing during online races where only the image of the game freezes but everyone else in the background continues as normal? The car is still moving, force feedback works but the image on screen freezes for like 4-5 seconds and once it comes back, you’re in the barrier

    I’ve had this happen semi-regularly on two different computers now and it really does ruin the race experience, especially given it can happen in traffic and you can accidentally wipe someone else out.

    Any fixes or anything available? It only seems to happen in Multiplayer lobbies.

    For reference of PC, it happened on my build with a 4070 super and it now happening on my PC with a 9070xt.

    Hello Pesnaa,

    Thank you for reaching out. To help resolve the issue, please check the following settings:
    1. In the Shared Memory section, confirm that UDP is disabled.
    2. Set the Pitstop Detail option to either "Player Only" or "Off".
    After adjusting these settings, please let me know if the issue persists. I’m happy to assist further if needed.

    I can second the issue, 1.6.7 was running very fluidly but 1.6.8 i had microfreezes every other lap on road atlanta and Interlagos. the Lobby was hosted by P2P and not through dedi as far as i can remember.

    I didnt change any settings between those contrasting experiences, will need to check what those are actually set to though.
