Ugh, I’m still getting whacked by 0xc0000005. It’s such a generic error that finding useful steps to fix it is basically impossible, because what worked for some rando with a completely different setup won’t be applicable at all.

Game looks good for the 3 seconds it’ll run after loading into the world.

Try running as admin and unplugging your fanatec wheel?

Don’t have a wheel, but I just made it through a whole event without crashing after running as admin. Don’t want to celebrate prematurely, but… seems promising. Thanks homie.

Also, gently caress windows, Jesus.

Definitely already annoyed at how hard Drivatars cheat physics in certain races. I expect it to a degree in Unbeatable, but Highly Skilled? Get the gently caress out of here with that poo poo

Same as it ever was, unfortunately. I've just come to terms with the fact that the off road stuff requires me to turn the difficulty down one notch, especially cross country.

Personally I find a distinct lack of Monster Energy themed paintjobs. In FH4 there was at least 1 for every car in the game but I haven't found a single one in this game yet :cry:
I need my entire garage to be Monster Energy themed.

Edit: YES! And it's my favorite car too. I have a really nice S1 tune for the Volvo 240 Turbo if you like AWD powerslides. I shared it under the name "Volvo Power".

Haha, I guess we're looking at different cars then because I have seen plenty, so just a question of time I guess. Tons of racing sponsor style schemes, and Monster Energy as a common trend.

Here I'm more into clean schemes for the prettiest lines (classic red ferraris, a lovely lime green lambo Aventador...) and meme stuff (spongebob, psyduck, AYAYA...). I'm amazed at how much of a treasure trove the game is already in pre-access.

Probably helps a ton that they've invested a bunch into making the games a shared platform for that stuff. My only regret is that all the cool bumper stickers that I made were in one of the games before they started letting you import stuff forward, so I didn't have much to bring over. But I'm sure a lot of the paint job superstars were importing and painting furiously on day one.

if you are playing coop with people, what determines the AI difficulty in a race ? when you are solo, before the race begins, you can adjust difficulty settings but in coop it just goes straight into the event.

How does one unlock the drifting segments on the map? I'm trying to complete the early bird forzathon but it want's drift segments in the Z, but my map doesn't have any. I've just been casually doing what event I drive across, be it story, race or segment/jump, or board, but I'm running out of time I think.

Have you unlocked the PR Stunt adventure yet? You have to do that before those populate the map. Next time you get an adventure unlock, do that one.

Similar question though: I am trying to do the speed trap on the coast for the weekly challenge and it specifies "track toys" and S2 998. But there are no S2 track toys at 998, and even with upgrades I can only get 2/4 cars to S2, but they top out at about 950. Does the number not matter and does it just have to be an S2 track toy, because otherwise I have no idea what they are asking and it's really stupid this is the requirement in the initial week tbh.

I struggled with this one too as it's my first time with the series. But then I found out.

So step 1 is get a Track Toy car. Step 2 is tune it so that it's S2 class. As I understand now, you can change parts and improve performance of cars, which increases its numerical value, and car tiers are just brackets of value (like B is 601- 700, A is 701-800, etc.). I used the Ferrari something something Pista but anything else will probably do, and just browsed the available tunings from other players. For every car you'll find tunings that you can browse through performance, so for this one, look for a tuning that ups speed and acceleration while moving the car to S2, pay for the required parts, and you're good to go.

And after this I started using tunings on all the cars I want to use and boy does it make a difference to be at the top of the bracket.

Oh yeah, I know all about tuning and upgrades, it's just weirdly specific wording in the requirements for the seasonal objective that made me think I had to get my car all the way to 998. They should probably just say S2 if that's the requirement, the number on top of that is kind of confusing.

It's quite good but I muted for spotify as well, because I am mainlining the game so much that I already got tired of it lol

Really enjoying this so far, the handling feels miles better for starters and the environments really well thought out, just a shame they got rid of a ton of body kits :(

Oh and remember at the start of a race to dip into photo mode and take a picture of the starting line, it'll give you a good leg up on taking photos of all the cars.

No, but I did lose access to the house on the east coast that is free with the welcome package. Had to "buy" it again. So there are some bugs with the houses for sure. Maybe that is your issue too? Make sure you still actually own all houses.

That's not what gaslighting means you hyperbolic dipshit.
Did somebody mention a house that can give you free fast travel in this game? I ask because I didn't like having to collect all the fast travel billboards in FH4 so I figure I'll ask now in case that exists so I don't have to do any fast travel billboard farming in FH5.

Dumb spoiler probably but maybe it will help people who want to go in totally blind.

Buying the house unlocks the ability to fast travel, collecting the boards makes it free.

Is there something obvious that triggers the barn finds being ready to claim? It felt like in previous entries I'd get a barn find, go do a race, and then it would be ready for pickup, but not so in Forza Horizon 5.

I don’t get why people rush this.

You have to do 20 eliminator events to get the Veyron SS. You can do a bunch of roads while everyone else is racing, finish at least 20th just ignoring the event and get a wheel spin and a couple driver levels out of the whole deal.

Gonna recommend spending the free car voucher on the McLaren F1 GT. It's one of the most expensive cars that can't be gotten through an accolade and, when tuned, is great for speed zones, traps and danger signs.
