CUDA Transcode Improved Performance
Rage uses very highly compressed texture data as part of its MegaTexture technology engine.[2] Users with a fast Nvidia video card can benefit from CUDA transcoding which will offload the decompressing task to the video card rather than the CPU. Users with 4 or more processor cores instead can benefit from extra CPU transcoding by disabling this feature and thus giving all available video card time to rendering the game.

Issues unresolved
Audio Issue
- An unsolved audio issue causes audio to cut out, or not play at all. Dialogue will be cut short, footsteps will not be in sync, or even cut out complete, and vehicle sounds will fail to play correctly. No fix has been found yet.
Fix: Reduce resolution to 720p disable texture detail and lower AA until the issue is resolved.
Edit: I was able to bump up the resolution to 1440p after deleting the cache folder in %localappdata% keeping texture detail disabled and AA at 4x. Test run is first ride with Dan, he will skip dialogue if the audio is bugged. Second test is to brap around on the wheeler, if settings are too high the wheeler sounds will cut out.
Regular crashes with ATI/AMD desktop and mobile graphics
- Running RAGE on some systems will cause regular crashes, and this issue remains unfixed.[10]
- Using third-party drivers does not fix the issue.[11]
Force RAGE to use older version of AMD OpenGL driver (atioglxx.dll)[citation needed] |
---|
Notes
|
Install the game to the C drive. |
---|
Issues fixed
Disable GVR in AMD Gaming Evolved[citation needed] |
---|
|
64 bit version takes forever to load
Use +logfile 0 command line argument[citation needed]
|
---|
|
Corrupted, black, jagged or dotted textures
Disable any sort of override or enhancing function (like anisotropic filter, antialiasing or Catalyst A.I.) from any utility which could control the graphics card.
These include but are not limited to program such as the Catalyst Control Center, the Nvidia Control panel, RadeonPro, Ati Tray tools, RivaTuner.
Stutter, textures pop-in, freezes
Create textures cache folder[12] |
---|
|
Increase texture buffer[13] |
---|
Notes
|
Minifreezes[citation needed] |

|
Add launch option to adjust mouse sensitivity |
