Sector3 Studios ha appena rilasciato un nuovo update per il suo RaceRoom Racing Experience. L'aggiornamento ci mette a disposizione come prima cosa la nuova AMG-Mercedes C-Klasse DTM 1995, necessaria per disputare la terza fase del torneo Mercedes-AMG Motorsport eRacing Competition 2018. Non finisce qui però, visto che l'aggiornamento apporta anche numerose migliorie e vario bugfixing al gioco, come potete notare dall'elenco qui di seguito.

We continue our series of updates aimed at deploying cars for the various eras of the Mercedes‐AMG Motorsport eRacing Competition.

Today's update adds the AMG-Mercedes C-Klasse DTM 1995 that you will be able to drive during round 3. The leaderboard qualifier opens 14th May 2018! The opening event took place a couple of days ago and featured intense racing! You can watch it on Mercedes-Benz' YouTube channel :

 

But it isn't all! Today we're also giving you a great list of modifications and new features that were among the most requested ones. Check this out:

Game:

• Pitstop menu now automatically confirms the requested changes upon entering the pitlane.
• Added an input meter graph showing steering and pedals axes and a keybinding to toggle it on/off from the HUD. It was made to also be working in replays and render no matter the camera. Position and scale of this new HUD element are up to user’s preferences through hud_options.xml. Default has been aligned with FFB meter.
• Added a “Fixed Setup” option to dedicated servers. When enabled, players are only allowed to modify the fuel and the brake pressure.
• Added support for upcoming “Fixed Setup” time attack competitions.
• Cockpit steering animation setting now has an extra option to render the steering wheel in a static position. Useful for cars featuring a data display on the steering wheel (ie. BMW M235i Racing or Formula cars)
• Added more data to Dedicated server results .json: StartPosition, StartPositionInClass were added to Session. Sector Times, PositionInClass and a boolean stating if the lap was valid or not were added to Lap.
• Updated to libcef 3.3282.1742 / Chromium 64.0.3282.119. Should help with certain crash reports and users reporting black screens.
• Game now waits a full minute for http requests and ghost uploads after some users reported failed upload of leaderboard entries.
• Changed so laps completed, invalid laps & best lap time statistics are not sent to the backend if cut track rules are disabled.
• Changed so driving at high speed on grass (ie: on the side of a straight) now triggers a yellow flag event.
• Changed so a car causing a yellow flag event is allowed to overtake other cars inside the yellow zone.
• Fixed LED’s of the Fanatec CSL Elite that were lighting up by group of 3 instead of 1 by 1.
• Fixed a bounce of the vehicle that could be observed with certain cars upon spawning on track.
• Fixed a case where some users would still receive penalties upon spawning on the starting grid.
• AI - Fixed a reported game crash related to DRS / PTP zones.
• AI - Fixed a case where AI would sometimes be caught pitting before the pitlane opened.
• AI - Added some variations to their tyre management to increase pitstop strategy differences.
• VR - Added a loop for VR initialization so it tries 3 times before returning failure. In case it's just a temporary error.
• VR - Fixed an issue where some system chat messages could not be seen (such as “user has joined the server” messages)
• VR - Fixed a reported game crash
• VR - Fixed an issue where the head position would move erratically when transiting to another racing session.
• Tweaks to the revlimiter code to get more of a dogtooth effect in the rpm.
• Tweaks to pitlane speed limiter to reduce some bouncing over the speed limit in certain cars. Just like in a real car, it is recommended to not apply full throttle while on limiter.
• Tweaks to the slow-down penalty messages to make it more explicit that the user has to give up a certain time advantage.

Sounds, cameras, physics & AI:

• All Tracks - Tweaked AI pace in qualifying versus race
• Audi RS 3 LMS - Triple screen cockpit camera is now properly positioned
• Formula RaceRoom 2 - Tweaks to AI braking ability to better match player’s
• Formula RaceRoom U.S. - Sound adjustments to the idle and low revs
• Mistral M530 - Improvements to cockpit sounds
• Nordschleife - Fixed AI scraping the apex guardrail during a race start on the Nordschleife layout

• Sachsenring - Tweaks to cut corridors
• Silverstone - Fixed AI braking in an unsafe manner to enter the pitlane
