Still not working?

If you are still struggling to control your car or your frame rate is dipping, these settings won't solve those hardware or input-specific issues. Check your controller configuration for deadzone adjustments or ensure your graphics settings match your monitor resolution to prevent input lag.

Frequently asked questions

Do these settings affect my save data?

No, these are purely UI and preference adjustments and will not impact your game progression or save files.

Why is the background music set so low?

In Tokyo Xtreme Racer, audio cues regarding your rival's engine pitch and your own tire friction are vital for timing your maneuvers; turning the music down ensures you don't miss these sounds.
