* Solution for users (Mostly for Quad and Dual Core users), that got a crash to desktop
Start the game and open the Taskmanager. Set the affinity to only 2 cores. Yes, the game 'may' not work with quadcores, except you switch to 2 cores. Hope, EA will fix this. I found this solution in their board - all users with quadcores are having this problem too - either retail (uncracked) or not.
* Black Screen Fix
Run the game and then set affinity to 0 and 1 cpu's in Task Manager.
and Disable all background tasks!
* The game is in RUSSIAN
cmd> regedit> ctrl+f> type need for speed > change (locale) from "ru" to "en" without the " "
* Does the Game Crash/Freeze for you? Fails to Load?
To those with ATI Radeon cards: Try updating to catalyst 10.10e hotfix and to those whose audio drivers are written by Realtek, update to the latest version of their audio software (Try Googling an alternative to their TW homepage - slow DL speeds for me at least)
Usually the main cause of the crack not working (i.e. crashes to desktop, program fails to load) is due to an AV/Anti-Spyware type program's (i.e. AVG, Norton, NOD32) "REALTIME MONITORING" feature.
(In AVG this feature is labelled "Resident Shield")
DISABLE the real-time protection feature when installing the game and/or crack. (If you do re-enable the real-time protection feature at some point down the road, if you happen to run a full scan it will then detect that crack as a virus again and remove it -- personal experience for this game)
Well, that's what I had to do to get this game running Smile
(P.S Make sure you have the latest DirectX, .Net Framework, the basics etc)
* When i run the game it says "Connecting to Autolog" yet nothing happens. only black screen with this rotating icon.
• Disconnect From Internet
• Try disabling your Antivirus/Firewall
• Launch the game with administrator rights and with Windows Vista ( Service Pack 1 ) compatibility. I had the same problem and now it works well.
• Add NFS11.exe to your firewall exceptions!
* Reloaded Activator is a "Heuristic Win32 Trojan .. F*CK!"
• Buy The Game!
* Game Lags like hell!
• If you get passed minimum system Requirements! Run game in Normal Graphics, If still do; disable all un-wanted Graphic options! (like changing Resolution to dekstop native resolution/ Disabling shadows)
* Where the f*ck is AA option in NFS?? O_o
• You don't have one, Change AA settings from your video card's control panel
* Can I play online with my Reloaded Crack?
• No, U can't still. Again Buy the Game!
* "Need for Speed exe has stopped working:" Error!
• This gets on Vista and 7! Run game in comparability mode!
*How to run Hot persuit in Windowed mode?
Open config file (Browse to c:\Documents And Settings\\My Documents\Criterion Games\Need for Speed(TM) Hot Pursuit\ and Open the config.NFS11Save file with a text editor.)
Browse to [Display] Section
eet fullscreen=flase. Save and close file. Now Run Game!
* I changed my resolution in game. Now I can't see anything. It's all black. How can I cahnge back to previous resolution in NFS Hot Pursuit
Open the config.NFS11Save file as stated earlier.
Browse to the [Display] section.
Alter width and height properties to fit your desired resolution. For example, values for 800x600 resolution would be : Width=800
Height=600
Save and close the file.
Run the game.
Note that adding a resolution unsupported by your video card/monitor would cause black screen issues when trying to launch the game.
*How to change language? My game runs in Russian! :(
Run Registery Editor. (Type regedit in start menue. Or Run Programme.)
Locate the following key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Electronic Arts\Need for Speed(TM) Hot Pursuit\1.0 (on 64-bit systems)
OR
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Electronic Arts\Need for Speed(TM) Hot Pursuit\1.0 (on 32-bit systems)
Change the Language key value to ‘English’ and Locale key value to ‘en_US’.
It may be possible to switch to other languages/locales if you are using a MULTILANGUAGE release. However, I personally have not tried it.
