Hey @lords, thanks for the help and checking. Knowing that, I've been having a further look today and managed to have it working on my end, although via JConfig rather than TP.
I had not tried in the laptop with the Intel yet, just on an old Nvidia GTX 765M, at least it loads now, although I've got a bunch of freezes (sometimes after the 1st stage)
If anyone knows about how to play this game properly, is there a way to not slowdown so much in those massive straight roads? The game is good when it goes fast but in those tracks it feels as if one loses speed and there's not much one can do... unless there's some kind of drifting than can be used when cornering or something to keep the boost intact? If anyone has a trick to go faster pls share with us , tapping the accelerator gives you a tiny bit of speed but it's quite negligible
