I made 2 videos to fix to major FPS problem with NBA2K14
---------------------------------------------------
issue 1 : very low FPS
I had this strange issue since i reinstalled this old game, the game ran very slow at only 3 or 4 FPS !
Problem solved : the issue was ... the file system.
Since i lost one of my SSD, i reinstalled all my NBA2K games on a new one, same model replaced by Amazon, but formated in exFat.
All other NBA2K games work perfectly including NBA2K13, I dont know the reason why, but only NBA2K14 doesnt like this filesystem.
Anyway, on a NTFS drive, it works now perfectly.
Game is pretty old but it could help.
---------------------------------------------------
issue 2 : freezes, variable FPS
Another other is that the steam version runs slower between 20~40 FPS when internet network card is on.
the only issue was to disable the network adapter.
but finally, ive found a fix after tracking what the game does on the nework :
no need to turn off the network card anymore
2K turned off the servers but the game still want to contact them, even in offline mode, causing slowness...
so faking the game by adding the servers called on the local loopback fixes this issue.
