Kart Racing Pro beta 15B released

[VELOCIPEDE]

Il buon Piboso torna a sorprenderci persino a Ferragosto, con il rilascio di una nuova versione beta (la 15B) del suo apprezzatissimo Kart Racing Pro, unico vero simulatore di guida dedicato al mondo del karting. Pur trattandosi ancora di una versione beta, il rilascio è decisamente importante, in quanto, oltre ai vari bugfix e migliorie consuete, ci offre novità importanti, come il confronto degli assetti, il display MyChron 5 e la nuova e bellissima pista di Lonato 2016 (nel video qui sotto).

 

Kart Racing Pro beta 15B released
Sorry for releasing another Beta, but unfortunately development of the "final" version is taking much more time than expected, so a "snapshot" has been published. Work on the new and updated karts and on improved netcode is in progress, and the "final" version will be released as soon as possible.

Release notes
- a clean installation is strongly recommended
- replays and setups are not compatible with the previous versions
- the replay buffer size setting has been changed from bytes to megabytes: http://forum.kartracing-pro.com/index.php?topic=1527
- the tyres and chassis physics data format has been changed, so mods for previous versions are not compatible

Known bugs
- the floor pan settings doesn't make any difference at the moment. The simulation is completed, but the chassis data is missing
- the dedicated server save/restore feature is not working anymore. It will be restored as soon as possible
