In Need for Speed: Undercover you never thought it would turn out like this-an all-out chase where you’re the hunted. And the hunter. Now you must use all of your experience-and every ounce of skill- to infiltrate and take down a ruthless international crime syndicate, outrun the law, & unlock the truth that puts an end to this chase once and for all.

Emulation Information

Controller Map Overlap

Need for Speed: Undercover is capable of using both GameCube controllers and Wii Remotes. If a physical controller is set to emulate both a GameCube Controller and a Wii Remote concurrently, it will operate both devices at the same time. To fix, migrate controls to use separate physical controllers.

Strange Layering Issues with Fences

Some fences in this game have objects that bleed through them. This is a bug in the game, not Dolphin.

Problems

VP6 Videos

Need for Speed: Undercover uses the VP6 video codec, common in Electronic Arts' titles, causing its videos to have vertical line artifacts and other glitches on many graphics cards. The Software Render will display VP6 video correctly, but is typically too slow. VP6 rendering also reacts poorly to the Force Texture Filtering enhancements (and Anisotropic Filtering on NVIDIA), causing further scrambling. See issue 7193. In 5.0-15515 or newer, this can be fixed with "Manual Texture Sampling" in the Graphics Settings → Advanced menu.
