'''''NCAA Football 14''''' is an American football video game published by EA Sports and developed by EA Tiburon. Despite the game's positive critical and commercial reception, no sequel was produced the following year. Due to legal issues surrounding the game's use of college player likenesses, as of 2019, NCAA Football 2014 is the last installment of the NCAA Football series. As the most recent entry in the dormant series, the game continues to be played, with unofficial roster updates being released reflecting subsequent seasons.

NCAA Football 14 is an American football video game published by EA Sports and developed by EA Tiburon. Despite the game's positive critical and commercial reception, no sequel was produced the following year. Due to legal issues surrounding the game's use of college player likenesses, as of 2021, NCAA Football 2014 is the last installment of the NCAA Football series. As the most recent entry in the dormant series, the game continues to be played, with unofficial roster updates being released reflecting subsequent seasons.

Configuration

Options that deviate from RPCS3's default settings and provide the best experience with this title are listed below.

GPU configuration

Setting Option Notes
Shader mode Async with Shader Interpreter Needed in order to fix black field glitch during day games, which is present in various NCAA Football and Madden NFL games. After building up a shader cache using Async with Shader Interpreter mode, users can switch back to Async (multithreaded) for subsequent boots if required.

Known Issues

Exploding Vertices

Issue 6981 - After extended periods of play exploding vertices can suddenly appear in the middle of a game. Issue is fixed by rebooting the game.

Disappearing Players

After a recent update to the emulator, players will disappear after the ball is snapped and then a review of the play will happen annd it will be reversed. Then there is weird glitching on the players and the o-line's helmet's come off. This happens every time the ball is snapped. No fix that is currently known
