Hey Tony,

If you need/want someone to help with members etc give me a shout, i'm online at some point most/every day/evening. :)

I'll also start helping with the invites now. Saves tony having to do it all the time.

Anyone up for online tonight?

That'll be great guys, thanks. Annoyingly I've not been able to get online much this week due to work. Any help would be awesome.

Thanks again

Bummer. Game no longer launches with a CTD at the Playground games logo. Only thing I know that's changed is a Windows Insider update and a new monitor. Pretty sure I can rule out the latter.

Time to opt out I guess. Tried the microphone fix and the AV fix too with no luck.

My windows insider just updated but not had a chance to play the game since. Will try tomorrow and let you know the outcome.

Still works fine.

Somewhere far.
Buy $70 worth of gift cards first.

1) Purchase the $20 & $50 gift codes from the Singapore Microsoft Store.

$20 = https://www.microsoftstore.com/stor...20-Xbox-Digital-Gift-Card/productID.299585900

$50 = https://www.microsoftstore.com/stor...50-Xbox-Digital-Gift-Card/productID.299586000

2) PayPal is a checkout option and you can use the following billing address if required, I use my normal bank card (barclays) put in my adress and then the 039595 bit and singapore as country:

7 Raffles Boulevard

Marina Square

039595

Singapore

Once payment has gone through you'll receive the codes instantly.

3) Redeem the gift codes on your account and purchase the game using your newly acquired credit.

its really quite simple, ive used this method for a number of other countries.

I tried to do this but it doesn't let me redeem the code - "This code is valid only for SGD. It‘s transferable, so you could give to someone you know in that part of the world.".

Do I just need to change my region and buy it from the Singapore MS store?

Yep, you'll need to do it both times you try to redeem the code.

Took me a few mins to figure it out. :)

The link to change it is directly underneath the message you received above.

This game has tipped me over the edge into buying a 60inch TV for silly money. Delivered Monday.

Now if I can just find a way to stop it crashing on anything other than low settings... :p

Hints of am upcoming patch.

Hi all,

Today Microsoft released an update for Windows 10 that addresses a problem that would cause the full game to be downloaded again during our next planned update to Forza Horizon 3. All Windows 10 players are strongly encouraged to download the update immediately to avoid being impacted.

In addition this Windows 10 update also adds in support for Fanatec wheels in both Forza Motorsport 6: Apex and Forza Horizon 3.

If you aren’t sure what version of Windows 10 you have, follow these 3 simple steps:

Hit the Windows Key + R
Type Winver in the run command text box and hit OK
Look at the dialog screen revealing the OS build and registration info
The version you should see is Version 1607, OS Build 14393.222.

If your Windows 10 Version and OS Build numbers do not match the above, follow these steps to download the latest version:

Open your Settings app
Select Windows Update
Click “Check for Updates”
Install the available Windows Update
Restart your PC

Thanks,
Brian

yeah you need to redeem the code on the singapore store and also buy the game from the singapore store.

Thanks guys - took me a while but managed to figure it out :p downloading away at home so hopefully it'll be ready to go when I get in after work.

My gamertag is SlashBored if anyone fancies a race.

No crashing here either. and decent frame rate with the CPU trick.

Edit: as this thread moves pretty quick:

This fixed the frame rate issues for me, is there any way of automating it though or do you have to change the affinity and priority manually every time you run the game?

Guys, sorry for the silly question, but how do you move the game to a different location? I installed on the wrong partition :(

Got a horrible feeling you'll need to redownload the damned thing.

It did ask where to install it to after it downloaded, luckily I didn't overlook it and directed it to the correct SSD.

Start menu/settings/system/storage then click on the drive the game is currently installed on then click app&games and find the game from the list then left click and it should give you the option to move it .
