Notes

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 completely, and vehicle sounds fails to play correctly. No fix has been found yet.
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
|
Issues fixed
Disable GVR in AMD Gaming Evolved[citation needed] |
---|
|
64-bit version takes too long to load.
Use +logfile 0 command line argument[citation needed]
|
---|
|
Corrupted, black, jagged or dotted textures
Ensure that graphics card does not override anti-aliasing preferences. |
---|
|
Enable in-game anti-aliasing.[12] |
---|
|
Stutter, textures pop-in, freezes
Create textures cache folder[13] |
---|
|
Increase texture buffer[14] |
---|
Notes
|
Minifreezes[citation needed] |
---|
|
Reduce menu mouse sensitivity. |
---|
|
No mouse support at all
Launch the 64-bit with mods version instead of 32-bit[15] |
