Build 154 (17/2/12, Team Member +) MUST START A NEW PROFILE WITH THIS BUILD Changed Fanatec wheel default from 270 degree range to 900 degree range. This would be a problem if the player did not calibrate the wheel before driving Removed memtrace calls from System Pool header expansion due to deadlock issue until they can be sorted properly Fixed force effect thread crashes by implementing deferred creation/deletion of forces Removed loading code for obsolete tracksglobal pakfile Increased fidelity of replays for player and AI vehicles Aries: Fixed memory leaks in Timings::ExportBestLiveLapData due to incorrect mempool overries Ambient shadow height editing with F1 menu and reduced default to 5cm (from 25cm) to stop overlapping with bodywork Camera / replay updates: Physics tick and pause uses the same sync timer Update camera using new metrics from physics Physics sync timer uses app timer exclusively Deprecated SetPhysicsClock no longer required Detachable components and attached wheels are now regularly updated for AI vehicles Detachable components are updated only once per simulation step. Disabled automatic switch to "photomode" when pressing P - this stops the game pad right trigger from causing the camera to shoot into the ground if you hit P to pause the game Increased number of op user channels from 12 to 13 to avoid crash occuring when changing window focus with certain wheels and recently added deferred effects deletion code Corrected custom livery number for F68 Belgian Forest and Bathurst WDF edited and new textures added Formula A: quick fix for offset sidepod collision mesh. New livery for GUMPERTS Increased far clipping dist for all cameras Removed some understeer from the Kart. Increased front grip New Caterham export New California Raceway export Build 153 (16/2/12, Senior Manager) Removed all statics from HDR control, these were causing interference between the rear view mirror and the main scene. Hud now copies HDR params from main scene and from environment manager (otherwise mirror dims twice when in cockpit view). This stops the screen changing brightness if you turn the mirror on and off Fix for uninitialised var in HDR setup Fix for brake light glows Aries: Added placeholder files for ghost sources AI metrics updates: Added sub-tick metrics for AI vehicles to match the higher updated metrics for the player Adjustments to timestamping so subticks are marked appropriately Correct component index is now reported to cockpit render on wheel detach/repair Added some extra functionality for text merging to aid localisation process, for clearing out strings that change and writing out translations that have missing languages Updated RCF files to contain custom wheels as well Added physics tweakers for processing of vehicle contacts Fixed audio compression settings so that the FormulaB and Leonus don't use excessive disk space Increased smoke generation thresholds to make tyre smoke less likely. New skydome crossfade shader Tweak to exterior 3d pan levels Added classic belts and LODs & material WIP new skydome rendering .. allows cross fading Build 152 (15/2/12, Senior Manager) Increased thresholds before skid sounds start Revised FFB dead zone helper Updated max steering lock scalar to 4.0 FFB deadzone work FFB reduced over-aggressive bumps, causing problems in the kart Racer: Adjusted roof cam to show driver's helmet by default Ariel Atom Mugen: AO finished. Ultra detail now using INTERIOR_LODX model Formula A: merged in UV mapped body parts, lots of fixes, meshes cloned New textures and improve existing - Belgian Forest Added custom liveries for all cars Custom wheel textures added New Belgian Forest export New Formula A export New Ariel Atom Mugen export Build 151 (14/2/12, Manager+) Updated the game stat handling to automatically replace any personal bests stored locally in the profile by times received from the server when browsing leaderboards or when loading into a track. Also delete locally stored personal best if a personal best stat query returns nothing TM F430/RGT FFB config updated. Users of these wheels are required to delete their player profile <default.sav> Better graphics defaults. Increase the max clamp of the steering lock scalar created from the steering ratio to allow ratios greater than the natural steering wheel lock. Moved VM_STEER_RATIO enum to correct place FFB update: deadzone work, also a tweak to road noise with clamp Gumpert Apollo 3PV steering head fix Slightly improved Belgian Forest cameras Initial Kart driver setup Adjusted roof camera of Kart Increased the brake pressure +15%. Caterham 500 Upped AI fuel load estimates by 10-15% so they won't run out of fuel in a 3 lap or less race Locked chase cam behind car Turn off cockpit pertubation scaling Fixed drain Belgian Forest texture Build 150 (13/2/12, Senior Manager) Multi-turn wheels now default to maximum lock instead of 360 degrees. Old sprites removed and lower in memory now, SMS/WMD logos moved to login sprite container, Audio page updated, Video page temporarily fixed (still needs swapping to panel layout), steering lock tidied on Controls screen, Max Steering Ratio added on Setup screen (needs Geds Applink), Fast/Slow labels added on Setup screen, re-arrangement of logos on splash/login Added MaxSteeringRatio app link Hidden the max steering ratio value Gumpert Apollo 1pass animation set + fixed wrong car name in .CD Gumpert Apollo 3PV steering head fix This post has been promoted to an article
