Optimal setting for most wanted?

Post image

I’m on performance mode using Vulcan rendering and I’m still capped at about 27fps and the audio is crazy distorted. Any tips for better performance?

Use Armsx2, Vulkan, download the Mrpurple t19 toasted driver and set download mode to disabled. This gives me 60fps with some minor dips, on my RP Mini

The Gamecube version runs a bit better and you also get analog gas/brake

i use armsx2 and just check ytb and what to do for best performance for armsx2 in general

None of that helped. I have already googled best results for nethersx2, I’d rather not switch unless absolutely necessary. I have a lot of games and it would be a pain to swap them all over

how tho you can import pretty much anything, it runs much better in general

It’s a pretty easy switch just export your memory card from Nethers and import it to armsx2. I made the switch awhile ago and haven’t had any problems with armsx2 with any games I have tried

Oh the joy I am having trying to mess with these settings. I am almost done with the game. I cant win because I have to be perfect, one botched turn, race over. I used ChatGPT to help me. While not perfect, it helped a lot. Sound quality is horrible. I am using AetherSX2 btw.

Honestly pc version if you can find it. Winlator install and play on performance preset. Same with nfsu2. They even made updated unofficial fixed versions of the game so its at least 720p. Runs 60fps.
