Il team SMS, dopo l'ultima versione completa 106 rilasciata venerdi scorso, ha reso disponibile oggi, per tutti i membri iscritti, la nuova patch per aggiornare Project CARS alla nuova versione 108. L'upgrade mira a risolvere alcuni problemini riscontrati nella classifica online ed alcuni bugs rilevati nella vettura Caterham R500, che viene utilizzata per il concorso Eurogamer.

Hi all, As discussed elsewhere we've decided to make some updates to the Caterham to make it more driveable for the Eurogamer competition. We appreciate a change during the competition isn't ideal but the feedback has been fairly overwhelming that something needed to be done (with particular regard to lack of grip/higher speed oversteer/straight line instability).

The patch can be applied to your 106 (or 107) build installation as is. It does contain other fixes (see the build change log thread) as well. Please note that the default setup for the Caterham has been significantly adjusted so you'll need to create a new setup if you've already created your own with 106 or 107 (assuming you want to pick up our changes of course).

Today, Turn 10 has released a patch for Forza Motorsport 4 which fixes the no-credit issue and also the countersteering issue.

Adapting the game to our wheels seem to be very important for our partners at Turn 10 and we are very happy about that. Thanks to all of you to who helped us to identify the problems. Please read all the details directly from an interview with Dan.

In questo articolo molto particolare, Dave Kaemmer, fondatore del progetto iRacing, ci parla delle gare simulate sullo sterrato (appunto "dirt"), aprendo alla possibilità di avere casomai in futuro proprio questa specialità tipicamente a stelle e strisce nel simulatore made in USA.

What are some of the difficulties about bringing dirt racing into the service?

Surface modeling and graphics. We’d need to scan some dirt tracks, some off-road courses, and figure-out how to render and manipulate changing track geometry. Of course, we could keep the track static (not changing), but where’s the fun in that?

Ancora novità disponibili per il divertente Auto Club Revolution: dopo il successo ottenuto anche grazie al rilascio del tracciato di Silverstone, il gioco offre da oggi, a tutti i partecipanti alla fase di beta testing pubblico, ben 14 nuove vetture e persino tre nuovi circuiti, fra i quali il ben noto Infineon Raceway.

After a successful November we've just added 14 new cars and 3 new tracks to the closed beta test, as well as lots of small updates, fixes and optimisations. Their addition doubles the number of cars available to testers, who can unlock and purchase all of the cars as part of helping with closed beta testing. You can see the 14 new cars below or visit our Flickr page for the full size images.

Along with the 14 new cars we released 3 new tracks; Infineon Raceway, L.A. River Sprint and a new version of the popular L.A. River track, 'L.A. River Circuit' which lets players complete multi-lap races, rather than the point-to-point races in the original version. L.A. River Sprint joins the line up as a drag racing track, suitable for testing the top speed and acceleration of any of the cars, or as a social hangout area. Infineon Raceway becomes the 3rd officially licensed and accurately recreated track to be added to the test after Circuit de Spa-Francorchamps and Silverstone. Shots of the new tracks can be seen below, or see the full set over on the official Auto Club Revolution Flickr page.

Oggi è venerdi e con perfetta puntualità il team Slightly Mad Studios ha rilasciato la nuova versione beta pubblica aggiornata del suo ottimo Project CARS: come di consueto, anche in questa build 106 le novità, migliorie e bugfix sono numerose, a cominciare dalla spettacolare Caterham R500 Superlight che vedete nelle immagini, passando poi alla nuova classifica in tempo reale dei migliori tempi che viene subito inaugurata con un concorso che premierà i più bravi con una visita negli studi londinesi del team di Ian Bell!

It’s the first Friday of the month and that means one thing: A new development build of Slightly Mad Studios’ WMD-powered Project CARS is available for all our members to try, including Juniors. The new build comes with plenty of stuff to be excited about as an all-new car and a major new feature are being introduced, alongside an exciting competition with a very special reward.

- The new build introduces the Caterham R500 Superlight, a lightweight British sports car that will give you the ride of your life. Powered by a 263hp engine while weighing just 503 kilos, the car has an extremely favorable power to weigh ratio that results in stunning on-track performance.

- The brand-new leader board feature is now live, allowing you to see where you stack up against the best drivers in our community. Hot laps are automatically transferred to the leaderboard system and can be browsed using car & track filters. You think you are quick enough to beat the best of the best? Now you can prove it!

The new build also kicks off our first event as the Eurogamer Hotlap Challenge is now open. For more info on the competition and the exciting prize waiting for the winner, click here.

The build is now available for download for all WMD members starting from Junior level. For a one-time membership fee of 10€, members get to follow the development of Project CARS up close and get to enjoy regular development builds of the title.

Dopo aver annunciato il lancio a livello mondiale della prima versione open beta pubblica, il portale - simulatore di SimRaceWay ci segnala anche la disponibilità della nuovissima Bentley SuperSport, vettura che è possibile acquistare per circa 2 euro.
