iRacing: varie build Seasons 2023

[VELOCIPEDE]

E' arrivata la Stagione 3 2023 di iRacing! Questa versione contiene sia contenuti che aggiornamenti per la stagione 3 del 2023, che inizia ufficialmente il 12 giugno! L'aggiornamento include tre nuove auto: Cadillac V-Series.R GTP, Ligier JS P320 e Porsche 911 GT3 R (992). iRacing espande anche la sua offerta di piste per includere MotorLand Aragón (7 configurazioni) e Willow Springs International Raceway, oltre a una nuova configurazione 2023 Cup per Chicago Street Course.

La Dirt Taskforce ha completato il proprio lavoro sul progetto Dirt Refresh condiviso con la community a febbraio. Il sistema Spotter ha ricevuto una serie di aggiornamenti incentrati su Race Control e nuove chiamate che ravviveranno le corse e ti terranno meglio informato su ciò che sta accadendo in pista e in gara.

Approccio di nuovi sfidanti: ora avrai la possibilità di aggiungere elenchi di avversari AI alle tue sessioni ospitate che utilizzano il formato Heat Racing! Gli sviluppatori hanno lavorato anche sui tempi di caricamento, e questa versione stagionale include una prima fase di ottimizzazione del caricamento che dovrebbe portarvi al posto di guida un po' più velocemente.

Willow Springs International Raceway è orgogliosa di aprire la strada a un nuovo sistema di fogliame 3D che popola automaticamente l'ambiente con erbe, arbusti e altre creazioni di Madre Natura. USB Audio Hot Swapping è ora completamente abilitato e supportato da iRacing per tutte le tue esigenze di cuffie e altoparlanti. È stata inoltre aggiunta una nuova opzione grafica che controlla la visualizzazione di tutte le ostruzioni dell'abitacolo, in modo specifico per la configurazione dell'auto.

Il nuovo modello di danno è stato messo in pratica su undici auto aggiuntive. E, ultimo ma non meno importante, i piloti AI ora sono attivi in otto nuove auto e ventiquattro nuove configurazioni di pista.

2023 Season 3 Patch 2 Release Notes [2023.06.21.03]

This Patch includes a variety of updates and fixes for the 2023 Season 3 Release.

SIMULATION:

--------------------------------------------------------------

Optimization

• Improved the Enki worker thread pool allocation algorithm.
• - - This allocation adjustment should greatly improve performance for Enki threads on Intel 12th Gen CPUs.

Options

• Helpful text has been added to the voice chat notification dropdown menu.

Dirt Racing

• For the Dirt Refresh Project, reduced the variance in the amount of water in the track on dirt road courses.
• For the Dirt Refresh Project, dirt displacement from tires on dirt road tracks has been reduced slightly.

AI Racing

• AI Drivers now classify cars in lower classes more as obstacles rather than other drivers, which should allow for much more decisive passing. They are also hard-coded to think slower drivers are pathetic, so up your game!
• AI Drivers have improved their passing techniques for cars at very different speeds. They should move laterally to pass at a more optimal distance from the target.
• Further improved AI Drivers’ lateral positioning alongside other cars while racing on Road tracks.

Spotter

• The spotter message for setting the overall fastest lap will now only play for Open Practice or Race Sessions. In lone sessions, the personal best message may play instead.

Graphics

• Fixed an issue in Windows 11 where VSYNC could not be disabled when running the Sim in a window. This also fixes an issue in Windows 11 where the graphics auto-config always detected high-end GPUs as low-end GPUs, due to the test getting locked to the refresh rate and messing it up. This change also allows VSYNC to be toggled for windowed modes for the first time, and also now VSYNC setting changes take effect immediately without restarting the sim.
• - - NOTE #1: there are cases due to Windows and device drivers where VSYNC settings don't work still, where VSYNC won't turn on. For instance, usually it doesn't work if running using NVIDIA Surround, etc.. Also device driver settings may be overriding the Sim's application settings.  
• - - NOTE #2: When launching in full-screen mode with VSYNC off, if you Alt+Enter or Alt+Tab out of full-screen into a windowed mode, VSYNC will usually automatically enable until you Alt+Enter back into full-screen. It seems to be a DXGI limitation.

Force Feedback

• Fixed an issue that could cause the wheel force slider in the Options tab to fail to auto-detect your wheel if you had not yet entered a car.
• Some additional wheel models have been added to the force feedback auto-detect routine.

CARS:

--------------------------------------------------------------

<Car Class> GT3 Cars

• For the New Damage Model, a tuning update has been completed which lowered the stiffness of rub blocks.

Audi R8 LMS GT3

• Fixed an issue where some mirrors would appear at the incorrect location when the New Damage Model was in use.

BMW M Hybrid V8

• For the New Damage Model, fixed an issue where heavy damage to only body panels could erroneously cause a Meatball flag.

• For the New Damage Model, aerodynamic model penalties have been updated.
• For the New Damage Model, fixed an issue where heavy damage to only body panels could erroneously cause a Meatball flag.

• For the New Damage Model, fixed an issue where heavy damage to only body panels could erroneously cause a Meatball flag.

Dirt Late Model

• (ALL) - For the New Damage Model, a tuning update has been completed which increased friction on the right side-panels and tire sidewalls, stiffened the right rear corner, and lowered the break limit on the front wheels to make wall riding more dangerous.

Ferrari 488 GT3 Evo 2020

• Fixed an issue where suffering critical damage to only a very small area of the car could cause an unauthorized moon launch.

Porsche 911 GT3 R (992)

• 2023 Season 3 Balance of Power Adjustment: Engine torque has been reduced slightly.
