This game seems to update at whatever framerate it wants; meaning that on slower computers, even though it is running 60+ fps, the VPS will be under 60; resulting in audio/visual lag. The only workaround for this it to use dualcore and have a fast enough computer to satiate the game's demands for GPU. Single Core seems to be impossible to run full speed. | This game seems to update at whatever framerate it wants; meaning that on slower computers, even though it is running 60+ fps, the VPS will be under 60; resulting in audio/visual lag.

Driver: San Francisco marks the return of the established video game series that has sold 14 million copies worldwide. Gamers will play as Detective John Tanner on a relentless manhunt for crime lord Charles Jericho through the hills of the City by the Bay. Thanks to a groundbreaking gameplay feature, players can now seamlessly "shift" between well over a hundred licensed vehicles, keeping them constantly in the heart of the action. With its timeless setting, unique car handling and renewed playability, Driver: San Francisco will revitalize the classic free-roaming, cinematic car chase experience for the current generation of gaming platforms.
Problems
Invalid Read Errors
Starting a new game spews many Invalid Read errors. Disable Panic Handers to avoid these.
Unlimited FPS
This game seems to update at whatever framerate it wants; meaning that on slower computers, even though it is running 60+ fps, the VPS will be under 60; resulting in audio/visual lag. The only workaround for this it to use dualcore and have a fast enough computer to satiate the game's demands for GPU. Single Core seems to be impossible to run full speed.
Cutscenes
The comic book cutscenes require non-fast Texture Cache Accuracy to display. Refer issue 10703.
Configuration
Only configuration options for the best compatibility where they deviate from defaults are listed.
General
Config | Setting | Notes |
---|---|---|

4.0-8627 | Windows 7 | Intel Core i5-3570K @ 3.8GHz | NVIDIA GeForce GTX 760 | Plays well in dualcore, unplayable in single core due to Dolphin's emulated GPU timings in single core being different. | JMC47 |
