Issues fixed
Stuttering Fix
- By default, the game places its processing load on the first CPU core only, which causes occasional framerate dips on most systems. To fix this, you must change the affinity of the NFS11.exe process to exclude CPU 0; after doing this, it places its load equally across the remaining cores.
