Test Patch Y30 : XF / XR Interiors

WARNING : THIS IS A TEST

Hello Racers.

Here is a new INCOMPATIBLE Test Patch, Y30.

You cannot connect to any older versions!

You cannot upload hotlaps until next week!

You need to unlock again and I've made sure everyone has two unlocks available

New updates :

- updated XF and XR interiors

- some other small interior updates

- some physics updates

All changes in Y30 are listed below.

NOTE - XFR / XRR MIRROR SKIN MAPPINGS :

The XFR and XRR have new mirrors and the old mappings could not be used.

I need to release an updated viewer for the new models.

For now, I have attached skin templates to this post so you can update your skins.

INCREASED FRAME RATES :

By using the same Hardware Vertex Shading system as the car body, the subobjects (steering wheel, gearstick, brakes, mudguards, etc) now make better use of your graphics card, saving CPU time and increasing the frame rate on most computers. Those that do not experience much frame rate increase should find it is smoother and more consistent. There are small graphical improvements as a side effect of this change. You should find that the pit-out glitch is reduced as well.

REPLAY CONTROLS :

Multiplayer replays now have the same interface as single player replays.

They loop and the Escape Menu is available while watching.

Also, replay controls have been added. A timeline is visible when you move the mouse.

You can click anywhere on the timeline and the replay will go back or forward to that point.

Some new keys have been added :

1) Single frame step : ',' or '.' (SHIFT + ',' or '.' = one second step)

2) SPACE to pause / unpause during a replay (same as P)

3) ESCAPE to break out of fast forwarding

4) SHIFT + F now has 3 states if you are in a replay (the 3rd state hides everything including all messages and replay controls)

DEMO LICENSE SYSTEM :

User name and password are now required to go online in DEMO.

DEMO / S1 / S2 all appear in the same List of Hosts.

NOTE to DEMO users :

- You will need to set a GAME password at www.lfs.net to go online

- Log in and click on "account details" to set your GAME password

- You will see all compatible demo hosts and demo compatible S1 / S2 hosts

NOTE to S1 users :

- You will see all S1 and S1 compatible S2 hosts in the list of hosts

NOTE to HOSTS :

- Hosts in S2 mode - no difference, compatible, all S2 Y30 users can join

- Hosts in Demo or S1 mode - all S2 Y30 users and Demo / S1 Y30 users will be able to see your host

OTHER IMPORTANT CHANGES :

- Chinese, Japanese and Korean Translations

- All tracks now use JPG textures for adverts

- Various fixes including a South City hot lapping issue

- Full-scene antialiasing and anisotropic filtering are now supported

Infatti l'hanno messo nella patch Y14 :fischia: :up:

Visto ora, stasera la provo!

In ogni caso c'era da aspettarselo, in quasi tutti i post su lfsforum si leggevano richieste di inserire anche l'AA ingame. ;)

P.S.

Forse un poco OT ma... non si sa piu' nulla dei nuovi 3d degli interni sulle stradali e gtr?
