Keyphrase made. Keep it safe: it is the only way back to these saves.
Online
On this server now: 2550 players, 294 in Online mode, 840 in free roam.
Everyone on this server who turns this on sees your car in career free roam, and you see theirs, with their names over them.
What other players see over your car in free roam, and your name in the Online menu (there only letters, digits, - and _, at most 15). Empty uses your profile name.
Friends who type the same crew name always see each other in free roam, however far apart, with names and map arrows in the crew's colour. Up to 4 crews. Anyone who types the name joins.
N or the controller's left stick click, in free roam and in races with other players.
Leave empty to drive with everyone. With a name, free roam shows only the players who set the same name. Not private: everyone on this server still sees your name.
You drive through the other players' cars, and they through yours. Off: you collide with them, and a car that appears on yours lets you through until you are apart.
Say one of sixteen set phrases to the players near you in free roam: 1 to 4, then 1 to 4 (on a controller, the right stick twice; on a touch screen, the chat button). Theirs show over their cars.
More online settings
The game's Online menu takes you straight to the Online Main Menu under your name, without the EA Login screens: lobby, chat and races with everyone playing from this server.
The nearest. Phones start at 16 and tablets at 24: many cars loading at once can take more memory than they have.

Game
The game's menus and subtitles, the voices in languages with a dub, and this page.
Intro, story and FMV movies.
The movies' lines as text. English's are VileStuff's English Subtitles Fixed, with who says each line.
Sets each profile's Save option in the game to Autosave once, so races, purchases and changes are saved without asking. Prompt or Off chosen afterwards in the game's Options, Gameplay stays.
More game settings
The EA and THX logos, the PSA and the intro. Skippable: Enter, Esc, Space, a left click, or A, B or Start ends each one. Original: as in the game, where only the intro ends early.
All sound output.
Pause freezes the game and its sound, as alt-tab does on Windows. In LAN and Online play it keeps running, without sound.
Lowest reacts fastest; Robust survives a busy PC best.
The game's own graphics options at their highest, at this screen's resolution. Off lets the game run its own hardware check.
Display
Off plays in this browser window; the menu (F9) has full screen while you play. Hold Esc to leave it. On by default on phones.
Scales the game's screen-size resolution (its default), per side: 50% renders a quarter of the pixels. Lower is faster and softer. Phones start at 75%.
Auto follows the display (120 on a 120 Hz screen, 240 on a 240 Hz one). 30 is steadier where 60 stutters, as on a slow phone, and easier on the battery. Online and LAN races run at up to 120, as on a PC; cutscenes stay at 30.
More display settings
Original: the game's own. Upscaled: LunicAura106's Upscaled HUD mod, the menus, race HUD, fonts and logos redrawn at four times their size, sharp at high resolutions. About 5 MB to download, and on most phones four times the memory.
Wide anchors it to the screen edges; 4:3 is the original centred layout.
Fit keeps the 4:3 movies whole; fill crops them; stretch widens them.
Letterbox bars across the whole width, or none.
Light on the road from other cars, as your own headlights give. Players: friends in free roam and the other players in Online and LAN races. All: AI racers and traffic too. Off: only yours, as in the original game.
In a corner of the game. F8 cycles it while you play.
Renders every resolution at this size, for example 2560x1440. Empty uses the one chosen in the game.
Most pixels the screen-size resolution renders at 100% and below (0 = no limit). 150% and 200% scale up from it.
Controller
On controllers that have it: crashes, hard landings and the game's own force feedback.
More controller settings
On keeps a controller once it was connected; hotplug only while connected.
Fraction of full travel, 0 to 0.9.
Fraction of full travel, 0 to 0.9.
How far a trigger travels before it counts as fully pressed (full throttle, full brake).

Game data on this PC
46.0 MB of the game's 1.7 GB (without the movies) is kept in this browser, so the game loads that from this PC instead of the network. Preload the rest too, and no loading screen waits on the network. Deleting it only means loading it from the server again.
