Automobilista: Development Update 13/5


VELOCIPEDE

Recommended Posts

Con un lungo messaggio sul proprio forum, il team Reiza ci aggiorna sullo sviluppo del suo apprezzato Automobilista. La v0.9.29 è la release attuale del software, che, concluso il testing, passerà alla versione 0.9.3 in Early Access già la prossima settimana, portando con sè, oltre ai consueti bugfix e migliorie varie, anche interessanti novità, come la nuova Boxer Cup, la Copa Montana series, i tracciati di Virginia International Raceway, Speedland e Mendig Airfield, tutti protagonisti degli screenshots che seguono. In basso anche il changelog completo.

 

Next public update
The beta is currently up to v0.9.29, and we´re just about to wrap v0.9.3 for testing. If all goes well this version should be deployed to Early Access over the next week. This build will feature a new track (VIR), a new series (Boxer Cup), plus a long list of fixes & improvements (the changelog for these latest updates is attatched at the bottom of this post).

Content development
Things are generally fairly advanced for release on the content side of things - besides what´s already incoming with v0.9.3, we also have the Copa Montana, Speedland kart track, Mendig Gymkhana shaping up very nicely and should make it to release within the next few weeks. As defined in the original post, all the above content is free and designed to make it to the game in time for full release. They will be added along the course of may.

We have also began making progress with modelling of content to be released post-release (in the form of both free & premium DLCs) - @Alex Sawczuk , @ilka & the rest of the track team are hard at work with Brands Hatch, the first of 3 official british tracks to be released as premium paid DLCs (you can find more information about our plans for these DLCs here).

We are also started with the Formula Vintage (free), and the Ultima GTR, the latter to be our first premium DLC car release. Here are some early shots of the Ultima. The Ultima GTR is one of the high performance british kit cars in development to be released in DLC package, featuring both road & race variants. We are working on adding a couple of other great british cars to this package, which we hope to confirm soon.
Worth reminding everyone that you can get an advance taste of all the new content (including the Boxer & VIR now), participate in the dev process and secure all upcoming premium DLCs for Automobilista with a nice overall discount by acquiring our Membership packages.

Features & tools
On the coding front, current efforts are concentrated developing the backend structure for our web portal & integration with the game, which we hope will significantly boost the community experience around Automobilista. @Luis Miguel, @Dave Stephenson & @Thiago Izequiel are working hard at it. Along with this, Luis is also developing the remaining features for our Time Trial mode.

The free AMS dedicated tool via Steam is now in beta and should be made available shortly - league runners interested in giving the beta a try feel free to contact me via PM for advanced access.
Work also continues in the remaining items listed in the original roadmap. We look forward to sharing more about them in our next development update.
