Automobilista 2: disponibile build 0.9.6.0

Nuovo update disponibile per Automobilista 2, che porta il gioco alla versione 0.9.6.0.

L'update odierno introduce dei miglioramenti alla forza della IA, con l'impostazione che lavorerà in maniera molto simile a quanto faceva in AMS1. Come nel primo capitolo lo slider della "forza" della IA adesso va dal 70% al 120%, con l'impostazione di default a 90% e il 100% che rappresenta le performance nella realtà. Gli sviluppatori però ci tengono a sottolineare che la IA potrebbe comportarsi diversamente in base all'auto, e che questo nuovo sistema richiede ancora una maggiore calibrazione.

La versione 0.9.6.0 porta in dote anche miglioramenti al FFB, alla fisica e delle nuove animazioni per le sospensioni. Ecco di seguito il changelog completo.

Quote

UI & HUD

Reinstated time acceleration for Single Player events

FORCE FEEDBACK

Revised code to fix (or at least mitigate) issues with FFB causing wheel to pull hard right or left in some circunstances

Increased input rates to 500Hz and limited FFB rate to 360Hz to minimise potential issues with asynchronous rates

Further fine-tuned all car-specific max force, filters & smoothing levels to suit final FFB system and latest tyre physics developments

PHYSICS

Fixed stalled player engine in rolling starts and in some cases when switching from AI control (still needs multiplayer testing)

Minor tread adjustments for F-Vintage, Trucks, GT, SuperV8, prototype & road tyres

Reduced default brake pressure to 90% (same as AMS1 - setting remains adjustable from car setup for player preferences)

Slightly increased optimum brake temperature ranges for both steel & carbon brakes

Reduced contact factor in open wheelers (further minimising extreme reactions in wheel-to-wheel collisions)

Reduced incremental lift with radiator opening setting

MRX: Fixed wrong brake fade ranges in all variants

Ultima GTR: Fixed rear brake cooling on Road version

F-Vintage: Adjusted default differential settings for better driveability

AI

Added new Opponent AI Strength logic

Clamped opponent AI Strength range to 70-120%

Added customized parameter per car for AI brake application

Further reduced AI throttle application gap dependingon AI driver skill level

Further callibration of AI performance

Further reduced AI brake grip in GT / prototypes

TRACKS

Jerez: curbs UV2 mapping correction; fixed LOD issues with inner grass; conformed started grid lines to latest road noise & other minor fixes

Interlagos: Updated trackside cameras

VEHICLES

Toned down dirty layer on rear view mirrors

Added suspension animations for all Caterhams, F-Trainers & F-Vintage
