NFS Rivals Framerate Unlocker




This plugin aims to unlock Need for Speed Rivals' framerate above 30 FPS while keeping the gameplay intact. Older methods involving solely launch commands caused major gameplay issues that this mod seeks to correct.
Source code is available here.

Installation


  • Open Origin/EA App and navigate to NFS Rivals' game properties, then go to the advanced launch options.
  • Pick Need for Speed Rivals (x64) from the dropdown, as this mod only works with the 64-bit version of the game.
  • Copy these commands into the command line arguments box: 
    -disable-client-correction false -Client.VisualFrameInterpolation true -GameTime.MaxVariableFps 200 -RenderDevice.VsyncEnable 0 -Ant.InterpolatePoses false

  • Feel free to change GameTime.MaxVariableFps to whatever value above 30 FPS you want, and you can also remove RenderDevice.VsyncEnable 0 if you prefer vsync to be enabled.
  • Copy the contents of this mod's archive to NFS Rivals' root directory.
  • Download the latest version of Frosty Mod Manager from here, launch it, and add NFS Rivals as a game. Then go to File->Pack->Import, and import RivalsUnlocked.fbpack from the `Scripts` folder in your Rivals directory. Click Apply Mods(s), and from there you should be able to launch the game through Frosty with everything working as intended.

This mod is outdated as Feyce said. The latest version (1.0.1) is on github. You do need the fbmod file with the commands.txt otherwise the game will have a weird behavior.

@Feyce Those commands work, but they additionally wreck the game.
1. Sounds get corrupted or don't play at all.
2. Off-roading causes massive stutter.
3. Going too fast causes the game assets to not load and you to fall down under the map.
4. Events become insanely difficult as your car's speed is massively reduced.

GUYS! This mod is totally OUTDATED, and as you experienced it causes crashes and bugs!
Forget it, you don't even need frosty if you do no use any other mods, and INSTEAD just apply the following launch command on the game in steam or EA App:

-GameTime.MaxSimFps 60 -GameTime.ForceSimRate 60.0

This will get you 60 fps, and this is all you need to do!!
I have an 75Hz monitor so i changed the 2 numbers to 75, and everything is smooth and buttery now!
