Title: Game will start and screen will freeze while audio still plays. Help please!
Post by: Jmoney on November 23, 2022, 01:17:25 AM
 Since a little, after beta 18 I can't figure out why my game will continue to freeze whenever I load up and start to move my bike. It is never consistent when the game freezes up. When the game freezes the audio seems to continue while the screen freezes. I've tried running the game without any mods, deleted and redownloaded the game, and updated my graphics driver and none of what I have done prevents my game from freezing no matter what I do. Not really sure what the issues may be. I also don't have any of the other games I play freeze on me. The freezing happens no matter if I am online or not. Not sure if it is just an issue with Beta 18 but I have had no luck with what I have tried. I would love some help from anybody who has any suggestions. Pretty upset I can't play the game without having it freeze up on me. Thank you!!!

Have you checked you OpenGL version? I'm running v 4.6 with Nvidia drivers.

I honestly don't know what OpenGl Version is. I'm running the most current update with the Nvidia drivers I have downloaded. This didn't happen after the beta 18 update and not after I updated my drivers. Seemed like it happened pretty randomly.

SOLUTION!!!

Yo man i had the same problem. i took my laaptop to a professional and they fixed it. they said that my laptop basically didnt realize that mx bikes is a game and that it needs to like try. so it was trying to run bikes on my built in intel card and not switching it over to my nvidia card, so he set it to always run mx bikes on the nvidia card on high performance. Im not sure how to do it yourself but that was the solution i found and now i can play with no problems.
Hope this helps!

I was able to figure it out based off your response... So yes your computer isnt seeing the game as an actual game so it assumes its an app therefore using only your CPU to run the graphics of your game, Worry not easy fix. In you computers search bar search (Graphic Settings) now find MX Bikes, if you dont see it there click add custom program/app and find the MX Bikes EXE now click that and it says (Options) click that and youll see, (NVIDIA Graphics High Performance)... Problem Solved, Thank You

Game freezing issues can be a major bummer, especially when you're all geared up to hit the road on your bike. Let's see if we can troubleshoot this together.
First off, have you tried checking if your system meets the game's minimum requirements? Sometimes, freezing can occur if your hardware isn't up to par. Also, updating your graphics driver was a good move, but it might be worth double-checking if there's a more recent version available.

For anyone with this issue the fix is here - https://pureinfotech.com/set-gpu-app-windows-10/ You need to set the game's "MXBikes.exe" to use your best GPU, not the low power one. This is something Microsoft introduced sometime late last year and its logic is now to run OpenGL games in low power mode. That means if you have 2 GPU's the OS will use the one that consumes the least power and your game will run like s"*! at best.
