Before posting, please make sure to follow these guidelines. Without adequate information the team will have trouble identifying and fixing bugs, so please provide as much info as you can:

• Check if a bug has already been reported.
• If you reported a bug in a previous version of the game, check your game first to see if it's been fixed.
• If a bug has been reported and you are experiencing the same issue, hit the upvote icon: 
  
  
    
• The more popular bug posts will have a better chance of catching the attention of the team.
  Also, this thread allows us to sort comments by how many votes they have, so make use of that feature 🙂 
• If a bug cannot be reproduced, it cannot be fixed.
• When you experience a bug, please try to trigger said bug again if you can, and show us the steps you went through to trigger it.
• Text steps are good, video even better.
• One bug per post please, for our tracking purposes. That way every bug gets its own URL for us to investigate.

 

Please also provide the following:

• What platform you're playing on (for PC also state Steam or Oculus).
• What your PC setup/build is like (graphics card, processor etc.).
• Whether you're a Standard or Deluxe user (doesn't apply to Oculus).

I'm having severe slow downs in the menu and frame drops in the game since the update when activating V-Sync. 😕

Car Unlock Glitch:

Just like with the C4 + Fabia you can glitch the game to unlock the 01 Focus + 01 Subi right now. Same method as before. I have DM’d PJ but if you need more details I can DM anyone from CM the details.

Bug:

• The new "Consolidation Finals" elimination setting in custom RX events needs a toggle on/off in event settings rather than just being on regardless in order to allow us to play the way we want to, simulating Euro RX seasons for example where consolidation finals are not used

[JellyD 3]

I'm getting quite bad stutters in the game now. Every couple of seconds it just freezes for a bit. Both in VR and on normal screen. It's quite jarring especially in VR rendering it basically unplayable. I'm on a 3700x with a 2080 super, so that shouldn't be an issue. Having these regardless of graphical settings.

PjTierney,

 

BUG: New patch reset Graphic Settings.

 

EDIT: Not only graphics reset. Also Sound settings reset. Difficulty settings reset. Some personal vehicle settings no longer present. Head cam position reset in some vehicles. 

 

I reverted to settings I was running before 1.7 update and I am now getting FPS drops that I was not experiencing before. Possibly related to V-Sync. I have to turn off V-Sync now. I have current driver for my graphics card (downloaded today). Also, contrast is much higher than before and changing brightness settings do not effect. I also tried changing contrast on my monitor and it didn't help. 

 

Now I have a poorly optimized game that ran perfect before.

Same issue as JellyD. No VR here, but even the menus are dropping down to 15-40fps at random and the inputs on the controller are no longer responsive. Inputs will be dropped or skipped and later multiplied. The game seems totally broken compared to the last version, and that's not even gameplay. During an actually rally / race there's a lot of new stutters and hitches and freezes, and that's with gsync active. Something is busted somewhere.

[kombajnkoszoncy 189]

Have I really got to describe it? Just look at this.

[kombajnkoszoncy 189]

Now when I play the game I move up to the next event but it cannot load. I stuck on loading screen. Any ideas why it happens like that?

[pyide 53]

This patch has definitively busted the game here. MENUS aren't even working properly, framerate drops even there and the menu stops responding to controller inputs only to rubberband them all in consecutively later.

When I manage to actually start an event (have to use a mouse to point and click directly since the gamepad inputs are randomly unreponsive), the gameplay has a lot of random hitches / stuttering / freezes that weren't there before. It's impossible to drive like this. No settings adjustments resolve these new issues.

Please, don't let this go for weeks until the next update, you need to take action and let us downgrade to the previous version via Steam's beta branch feature so we can actually play the game as it was mostly fine before, or revert the patch for all and put 1.7 on the beta branch so people can opt into testing VR support and Dirtfish there. This update should not be live for all of us. The game is unplayable now.

PC/Steam/Standard edition w/some DLC, 4790k/Nv2060/16GB, only the same xbox one gamepad and kb&m peripherals connected as before.

[ianism 1,316]

with regard to the performance issues... I don't seem to be having those, and I turned V Sync back on. as you can see, I don't really have a top-end machine either. anyways, on to my bug:

• What platform you're playing on. 
• - Steam
• What your PC setup/build is like (if playing on Steam).
• - Dell XPS 15 9570. intel i7, 16GB RAM, Geforce GTX 1050Ti 4GB
• Whether you're a Standard or Deluxe user.
• - Deluxe
• Whether or not you have any non-standard peripherals connected, like steering wheels, gaming mice etc.
• -Nope

in Sweden, the Ransbysater/Norraskoga route and its sprints put snow on the car, while the Hamra/Lysvik route and its sprints put a small amount of dirt (roughly equivalent to driving a tarmac stage in the wet). if you're in a multi-stage event it is possible for your car to be all snowy, then you go to the next stage and it is covered in mud at the start (and vice versa).

screenshots below are from v 1.7. video is from 1.6.

I still cannot unlock 'Adaptable' achievement.

Hi, with the new PC update.
I noticed that the engine sound is not smooth, the sound decreases at medium / low RPM. The audio in wales in replays disappears again. Still in Wales, the effect of the wet is still missing, the trail of water is not visible and the effects of the particles are missing.. @PJTierney

Best regards please fix the effect.

I got a network error code e4669c75-58-58 and i can't connect to race net

Game has become unplayable due to graphics glitches (freezes every couple of seconds) introduced by this 1.7 update. Changes to graphics seems to make no difference whatsoever - even tried on ultra low settings and no luck! Please, please fix this Codemasters! Every new update seems to introduce new issues.

After reading later posts uninstalled and reinstalled Logitech Profiler and game is now back to normal and playable again thanks to those who suggested link to Logitech wheel affecting graphics performance!

1. Enter Daily community event Group B 4WD @Spain.
2. Select vehicle Peugeot 205 T16 Evo2
3. Select "Repairs tab"
4. Press button "recommended repairs"
5. Scroll down repair item list and see some items still show "no fix"

There is no way to launch with the Oculus API with the steam version. It runs really badly with my 2080ti.
Is it igoing to be fixed or should I refund

[chrisjaf 75]

hi pj just a small issue after update when playing daily,weekly,monthly challenges after completing them and looking at rewards there is no green indicator bar showing which tier you finished in.thanks in advance.

Bug reported with the released version 1.7 : all graphic setup disturbed (reseted ?), shadows (of car and movable objects) completely disappeared.  Graphics were already at the edge of quality, now it's really ugly (and new personalization setup trials did not lead to improvement in that regard anymore !!).  What were the possibly improved features with this new version ?
