Guide

A ddraw wrapper can fix the low FPS + crashing issues. Many are compatible with N.I.C.E. 2.

Personal recommendation
DDrawCompat – [github.com]

While
dgVoodoo – [freeweb.hu]

Another popular one is the one below.

If you are using ddrawcompat copy the ddraw.dll wrapper file to your root game directory. You may also need to place config files for dgVoodoo or other wrappers.

It is easy to confirm that the crash issue has been fixed by loading into one player race and exiting to the main menu.
