| Crashing Issue on newer PCs resolved | 2026-10-06 | One of our players has discovered a solution for crashes on Danger Zone.The crash was related to newer CPUs. People with high-end Intel CPUs with a lot of cores/threads (16 core/24 thread) maybe helped by this. Here’s the steps to follow:Apply the Intel/AMD OpenSSL SHA-512 Instruction PatchMany Unreal Engine 4 titles built around the time of Danger Zone 2 have a universal coding flaw where the engine’s built-in OpenSSL framework misreads the sheer number of modern CPU threads.This causes a hard crash directly to the desktop within 1–2 minutes of starting the game.1. Right-click your Windows Start menu and select System2. Click Advanced system |

| Update coming - car crash has caused a delay (no joke!) | 2017-09-22 | We're a small team (there are 7 of us). We were lucky enough to hire a new guy recently, a fantastic coder called Ben. We all worked with Ben back on Need for Speed Hot Pursuit. His first job at the company was to do the new Steam update. We wanted to let him push the update live (and rightly feel proud of his work). Last night on his way home he pushed his Danger Zone research a step too far! Yep he crashed his car. Happy to report that he seems to be ok but he is a bit late into work today and we decided to wait for him rather than push the update live without him. So apologies for the delay but there is a good reason! http://steamcommunity |
