[PC] Bugs and Glitches Report

I’ve put about 10 hours into Forza Motorsport 7 and I love it. That said, I’ve uncovered a few bugs and glitches.

I’ll list the ones I’ve currently found below and I’ll update whenever I find more.

But first here are my PC’s specs.

My PC:

Motherboard: Asus Z170 Deluxe
GPU: Asus GTX 1080 STRIX
CPU: Intel Core i7 6700k
Memory: G.Skill Trident Z, DDR4 3000MHz 32GB (2x16)
Storage: 250GB SSD, 2TB HDD
OS: Windows 10

Graphics Card Driver Version: 385.69

Bugs and Glitch List:

#1: Infinite Saving Screen

This occurs after I’ve loaded a race and then returned to the main menu. It occurs every single time whenever I go to paint, upgrade, tune or buy a car.

#2: Server Being Dropped/Unreachable in Multiplayer

The game will usually drop me from a multiplayer server after 45 seconds or so of being in a multiplayer lobby.

#3: Subaru BRZ (Widebody) Shadowcasting Issues

In rainy conditions, the Subaru BRZ occasionally casts shadows, flickering like crazy when it does. Most of the time, it just doesn’t cast a shadow whatsoever.

#4: 1985 Mazda RX-7 Missing Textures

In Forzavista, the 1985 Mazda RX-7 seems to be missing the texture for it’s engine. It’s a dull grey blob with no detail nor shadow.

#5: Aero Parts (Spoiler and Splitter) and Hood Upgrades not appearing.

I’ve gotten this on more than a few cars. Two examples of which are the Honda S2000 CR and the 1970 Chevrolet Camaro Z28.

#6: Hoonicorn’s Wheels Are Invisible

In both races and in my garage, the wheels are invisible. Makes it look like something out of Tron. Looks cool, but it’s a glitch worth mentioning.

Sometimes the side or interior mirror’s reflection will be a very low resolution despite the setting being on ultra.

The brake input meter in the speed gauge will not work until you pause and then unpause the game.

In cockpit view inside the Mercedes A45 hatchback reflects yellow and red against the inside A pillar from the curbs when driving over them. This also happens in the Audi S3 touring car with the Oakley decal on the windshield.

AI braking in the middle of apexes.

AI cars don’t have a reflection model and their cars instead have a flat low quality matte finish as well as having poor LoD pop in.

Also, i7 6700k and Core 1 is pegged at 100%. Worryingly, I’ve seen no official statement from Turn 10 that they are aware of this problem and trying to solve it which by the looks of things is affecting everyone.

I have the infinite saving bug about every other time I go to paint or decal a vehicle. Seems the longer you stay in the painting/decal screen the more likely it is going to do the infinite saving loop. Really annoying for someone like me who likes to do a lot of paint/decal customization. Doubt it is a spec related issue but my specs are detailed here:

I can add, that I’m also experiencing the Infinite Saving bug.

I had a race, midrace it started to rain. However, in the replay the rain never occured (including all the rain effects like wet tarmac).

Both Forza 6 Apex and Forza Horizon were playable using only the buttons and D-pad on my Thrustmaster T300 RS Wheel. Now I can’t even start Forza Motorsport 7 without using a keyboard or a mouse. Could you please look into this.

Been using the T300RS for 2 years now and never had issues in either Apex, FH3 and not in FM7 either. Apex I had to set up a custom wheel layout, save it then set the control devise to custom layout, FH3 you had to create a custom layout and select it everytime the game launched or you got the default T300 layout.

FM7 goto input devices and then select T300RS from the dropdown list, you can then customise the layout by highlighting each control using mouse and just click to re-assign it according to taste, do this for all controls and hit C on KB or use mouse and click on C at bottom right of the screen, this saves the profile with default name of “Custom controller 1”…

I can’t even enter into forza 7 on the PC. I click enter when directed on the first screen you come to and nothing proceeds to happen.

I’m having the same issue. Idk if I’m supposed to have XBOX Live or something to play but whenever I open the game and try to hit Enter or Space to get in it opens up this window then just disappears in a split second. Any help from anyone regarding this?

Just started playing Forza 7 last night on PC and encountered numerous bugs.
-Constant Crashing. Game crashes when it seems to get overwhelmed. Particularly when scrolling through paint options too quickly. Crashed roughly 10 times in a 2-3 hour period
-Stuck save screen when exiting paint shop multiple times
-Subaru BRZ reverse light “disappears” when selecting certain paint jobs

My PC:
Windows 10 latest Update
i5 4690K@4.5ghz
16gb DDR3
Nvidia GTX 1080ti

Guys I would just for the game to launch for me! I meet all standards.

My rig specs:

i5 2500k stock
GTX 670 2GB
8GB DDR3 1600 Mhz
SSD for system and HDD for storage

Settings at Low, 60 FPS, Visual effects that I don’t care about (can’t afford to have them on my rig) are Off, rest is dynamic.

I’ve only spent 1.5 hours playing, but got these so far:

  1. BMW 323 e36 not displaying aero parts and also cannot see the car in the area where you can change wheels etc in painting menu.

  2. Forza on HDD and all tracks load up in 20-30sec tops, but flicking through different cars in the menu is suuuuuuper slow and laggy.

  3. Looking at upgrade parts is fine, but it is the moment when I actually click OK to purchase them, then there is a 2sec lag.

  4. 23 Drivatars, most of the tracks (haven’t played all of them yet), raining/night, basically take your pick is running fine. Just myself in freeplay on Suzuka East? Forget it! Stutter all the time.

  5. D-Pad on PC not working??? Noooo! :((((

I hope today patch with resolve frame drops to 30 fps with GSYNC on, but there is another bug. With photos. 21:9 format will have photo camera parameters on it.

Am I the only one seeing flickering shadows and crowd flicker as well?

No. I also have the crowd flickering issue. Especially crowds with flags. It’s very distracting.

This is exactly why I came here… The amount of glitching in the crowds and the characters by the track waving flags is ridiculous! Plus I am quite disappointed with the low reflection resolution even when on it’s highest setting… But thee issue with the various animation glitches needs to be fixed! It is VERY distracting… Come on Turn10 I expect much better from you guys! Even GT Sport has less issues… That’s sad. Here are my system specs:

Motherboard: ASUS Maximus Hero VII
CPU: Intel i7 4790k@4.8GHz (water cooled)
Memory: DDR3@2400MHz
GPU: Nvidia Pascal Titan X 2076MHz Core, 11.4GHz Memory (also water cooled)
70" Vizio P Series 4K UHDTV
Fanatec CSWv2, CSPv3 and CSSv1.5

No. So many time and still not repaired. This bug is only form in/on car views.

Mine just keeps shutting down the game while doing vinyls on cars

After 56minutes game crashed. Before that graphical glitches started to come.
This is screenshot after game crashed.
