Problems

Stuttering Cutscenes

As of 4.0-5394, the EA Sports logo during the intro can stutter/freeze using default settings. Setting Texture Cache Accuracy to Medium (middle position) or Safe (left position) solves the issue.

Configuration

Only configuration options for the best compatibility where they deviate from defaults are listed.

Test Entries
Revision	OS	CPU	GPU	Result	Tester
4.0	Windows	Intel Core 2 Quad Q9450 @ 3.4GHz	AMD Radeon HD 6950	F1 2002 HD Widescreen Hack	Spartacus
4.0-5394	Linux Ubuntu 14.10	Intel Core i3-3220 @ 3.3GHz	nVidia GeForce GTX 650	Almost perfect with default settings. The intro cutscene fails to update properly without texture cache accuracy medium, and occasionally microstuttering occurs at the beginning of a race, but during gameplay there's zero problems. Constant 100% speed even at 3x IR.	Xerxes
