    Okay, I find it strange for the wheel.
    Did it work before? When there wasn't a 64-bit version of the game?

    By the way in 32-bit, you could try to disable "bloom" and "blur", in "video settings", "custom". And afterwards launching the game in 64-bit, to see if it still has the problem.
    If it still has the problem, maybe try to disable "Depth of Field" too (back in 32-bit).
    And if it still doesn't work, than, I'm out of ideas :(

    this could be a hotfix for all who can not enter the custom video settings or can´t apply changes without crashing the game and with the problem of smearing graphics while driving the car.

    check your graphics_options.xml and compare with the following file. You need to check for the BOLD characters and change them if they are not the same.


    <?xml version="1.0"?>

    <game__GraphicsOptions ID="/options/graphics"><latestVersion type="uint32">18</latestVersion><custom type="uint32">1920</custom><custom type="uint32">1080</custom><custom type="int32">22</custom><custom type="int32">60</custom><custom type="int32">1</custom><custom type="bool">true</custom><custom type="uint32">4</custom><custom type="uint32">2</custom><custom type="uint32">2</custom><custom type="uint32">8</custom><custom type="bool">false</custom><custom type="bool">true</custom><custom type="bool">false</custom><custom type="bool">true</custom><custom type="float32">0.60000002</custom><custom type="bool">false</custom><custom type="int8">2</custom><custom type="bool">true</custom><custom type="bool">true</custom><custom type="bool">false</custom><custom type="bool">true</custom><custom type="bool">true</custom><custom type="bool">true</custom><custom type="int32">32</custom><custom type="int32">4</custom><custom type="float32">-1.00000000</custom><custom type="bool">true</custom><custom type="int32">3</custom><custom type="bool">true</custom><custom type="int32">0</custom><custom type="bool">false</custom><custom type="int32">4</custom><custom type="uint8">0</custom><custom type="uint8">0</custom><custom type="int32">2</custom><custom type="int32">2</custom><custom type="bool">true</custom><custom type="float32">0.00000000</custom><custom type="float32">0.00000000</custom><custom type="bool">true</custom><custom type="int32">36</custom><custom type="int32">0</custom><custom type="float32">0.89999998</custom><custom type="float32">0.00000000</custom><custom type="float32">0.00000000</custom></game__GraphicsOptions>

    save it and give it a try to run the game. Hope this could help. Will not prevent a crash while entering the settings.

    I will this evening (32bit). As a side note I do not have motion blur or any post efx on as I am in VR - I have not seen the crazy blurry stretch problems others have witness.

    At last news, it seems that the crash in settings could be related with multisampling. If you disable it, it shouldn't crash anymore.
    But, it doesn't crash for me, so can't test it.

    OK, the Problem with the Wheel should be solved. I have unplugged my X-Box X360 Controller and now it is active in 32-BIT and 64-Bit Version. Never had an Problem with this before.

    I have changed the Shadow Details, and the Bloom and Blur Settings to off or low, but no Change in the result.

    That's good news for the wheel.
    Could you turn Motion Blur to "off" and Depth of Field to "off"?
    But at least you can drive it in 32-bit, now ;)

    I have done that. and i have disabled multisampling. no Change, but when i set the low Settings for all (via 32-BIT), it is running well, but Looks horrible ( ;-) )

    If I want to Change the Settings to high again, then I get the Crash again too.

    I tried 32bit - this does indeed let me alter the graphic settings and then go back to 64bit mode and play.

    I never use multisampling (again VR - it softens the image). So that was off. It does of course still crash if I try to alter graphic settings in 64bit mode. But at least there is a work around. Thank you for the suggestion!

    Shadows casted by trees on the track also disappear in front of my car as if I had a sphere drawn around my car. Windows 10, 64bit, 16 GB RAM, GTX 1080 latest drivers, running Windows Mixed Reality with the latest Steam VR.
