Ports
- No port information; you can edit this page to add it.
- This game supports Universal Plug and Play (UPnP) for automatic port configuration.
Issues unresolved
Audio Distortion
- Engine sounds are extremely distorted and often blown out, with some sound effects not playing at times. While turning down in game audio can help, a solution is not known yet.
- Fixed on digital versions (Steam and Zoom Platform) [9]
Issues fixed
Can't access launcher in Steam version
- Steam version updated in July 2024 removed the
launcher.exe
file.
Use the -launcher command line argument[10]
|
---|
The DVD will not install/uninstall due to missing privileges
Run autorun.exe as administrator[11]
|
---|
- When uninstalling the game, the same problem pops up, but the fix above will not work.
Run an uninstaller program |
---|
An example is Wise Program Uninstaller. In that case, open that, find FlatOut Ultimate Carnage in the list and select Safe Uninstall. Afterwards, the uninstaller attempts to remove related files and registries. |
Game does not start after install
Install Games for Windows Live Marketplace Client |

Juddery motion despite having a consistent frame rate
Use either 50 Hz or 100 Hz if the monitor is capable. If using G-Sync/FreeSync, use a third-party tool to cap the frame rate at 50 FPS or leave it uncapped for 100 FPS. Only leave it uncapped if the PC is capable of delivering 100 FPS consistently. |
---|
'Could not obtain native display resolution' error when using multiple monitors
Disconnect all secondary monitors and launch the game once. Close the game and reconnect monitors, all subsequent launches should work fine. |
---|
Stuttering, unstable FPS
Set launcher.exe and Fouc.exe to run in compatibility mode for Windows XP SP3.[citation needed]
