RaceRoom Racing Experience: Physik, Strecken und allgemeine Verbesserungen mit V0.9.2.23

(MST/Speedmaniacs.de) - Gleich mit zwei Updates hat Sector3 Studios die RaceRoom Racing Experience-Piloten im Januar 2021 beglückt. Nachdem das erste Update zur Monatsmitte freigegeben wurde, steht seit wenigen Tagen die Aktualisierung auf die Version 0.9.2.23 bereit.

Im Janaur gab es für RaceRoom zwei Updates Zoom

Neben einer technischen Umstellung der eigenen Webseite game.raceroom.com, sind nach dem vorliegenden Änderungsprotokoll mit dem 1,2 GB großen Update eine Reihe von allgemeinen Fehlerbehebungen verbunden. Außerdem wurde im Bereich Physik bei diversen Fahrzeugen und bei einigen Strecken nachgebessert.

RaceRoom - V0.9.2.23-Changelog:
-game.raceroom.com is now switched to https
-Pitlane speed limit tolerance has been adjusted when the limiter is enabled.
-Slowdown penalty multiplier from repeated cuts is now properly displayed on the HUD notification
-Tweaks to slowdown penalty logic where the player's best valid lap in the session is now used as reference to estimate the time gained and the time being given up. -If no valid lap exists yet, we then use the AI's predicted speed just like before.
-It means the time the player gives up will be more accurately calculated and that the best place to give that time back is no longer in turns, which should improve safety as well. A good tip is also to avoid slowing down near pitlane entrances and exits as slowdown penalties are frozen while in pitlane.
-Prevented enabling pit limiter or engine ignition during an AI-controlled rolling start.
-Fixed the default set of driving assists being selected at first game launch.
-Fixed an issue where player could sometime get stuck when leaving a server early (i.e. before results were made official)
-Fixed dedicated server results having wrong final positions for players suffering early disconnects
-Fixed dedicated server UI issues with certain long track names as well as lap and duration selector that could sometimes reset the race length value.
-Fixed dedicated server that could sometimes get stuck if no player finished the race
-Fixed the flickering of contact shadows (under the cars) for VR and Triple Screen rendering.
-Fixed some issues with spectator mode on servers with rolling start races and lap-based races
-Fixed issues with rolling starts when Assisted Braking was enabled.
-Fixed some gearbox grind noises that could sometimes be heard during an AI-controlled rolling start
-Physics - Audi R8 LMS GT3 EVO - Adjusted idle revs to prevent occasional stalling
-Physics - BMW M4 GT4 - Increased rear suspension travel by 10mm, dampers tuned for better handling over bumps
-Physics - BOP - BMW M6 GT3 - slight reduction of torque
-Physics - Callaway Corvette C7 GT3 R - Improved engine cooling
-Physics - Fabcar 935 - Fixed some issues with the differential where the preload could be set very high.
-Physics - GT2's - Improved automated gearbox behaviour
-Physics - P1 and P2's - Added default gearbox ratios for Daytona, some AI behaviour tweaks.
-Physics - Porsche 964 Carrera Cup - Improved standing start performance through a clutch adjustment
-Physics - Volkswagen Scirocco - Adjusted the rear tyres wear rate.
-Physics - WTCC - Added adjustable engine braking
-Physics - WTCR - Improvements to the initial grip of fresh tyres and help reduce the tyre pressure increase over longer stints. Optimum grip is now reached at 80 Celcius. Default tyre pressures were adjusted to match.
-Tracks - Dubai - Fixed harsh cut detections, moved the leaderboard spawn location closer to the racing line.
-Tracks - Hockenheim - Moved the leaderboard spawn location further back
-Tracks - Imola - Moved the pitlane entry gate entrance
-Tracks - Portimao - Fixed harsh cut detections
-Tracks - Scandinavian Raceway (Anderstorp) - AI behaviour tweaks to South layout
-Tracks - Sepang - Fixed harsh cut detections (note: Sepang North layout appears to crash on load, this is being investigated)
-Tracks - Suzuka - Fixed west layout pitlane that triggered invalid laps.
