    Main changelog:

    • Changed FFB levels and adjusted default settings both for better clarity as well as improving their default settings: instead of Low/Medium/High/Full, now Pure 360hz/Pure 180hz/Pure + Effects 1 / Pure + Effects 2 / Pure + Effects 3. Pure 360hz is the recommended for purest & higher fidelity FFB; Pure 180hz may be better suited for high end wheels with performance issues triggered by the high rates; The others add levels of extra "canned" effects from the game engine also se to 180 hz to avoid performance issues
    • Updated Java version for better compatibility with Win10 systems
    • Corrected errors with DynHUD fuel widget scaling & displays with imperial units
    • Initial pass of updated TV overlay graphics (still very early)
    • Various UI corrections
    • Max Framerate set to 120 by default for new profiles (consistent FPS is important to minimize tearing / stuttering)
    • Fixed bug with settings not being saved in the controller.ini when they should
    • Adjusted default AMS Config settings: Full Screen; remove advanced FSAA options as they don't work; set to desktop resolution rather than 1920x1080 (please run Config again if you had any issues)
    • Added a message to the in-game lobby so people are aware the matchmaker needs to be accessed from the Steam client for now
    • Corrected various championship schedules & default rules for various series
    • Enhanced tire skid and scrub volume calculation and updated tire sounds for all cars accordingly
    • Scaled down Rental Kart chassis to more accurate dimensions
    • Reduced default mirror resolution marginally & adjusted Mirrors and cockpit POV for F301 & FV10
    • Fixed F-V10 rear right tire UV mapping
    • Fixed missing safety rollcage bar for Honda Civic external model
    • Corrected mirror positions in Lancer R & RS
    • Corrected Indian Momentum team not showing up for the F-Extreme
    • Fixed omni on chicane road meshes and added collision mesh to fence inside final turns for Taruma.
    • Fixed error with Lancer Rallycross in lower detail settings
    • Fixed CTD with lower circuit detail settings at Inter kart layouts
    • Fixed Foz pitlane layout causing excessive rattling
    • Fixed Interlagos DRS & tire rules
    • Small physics improvements to Supertruck, Lancer Rallycross & F-Extreme
    • Fixed electronic driving aids being incorrectly enabled for F-V12
    • Several minor AIW corrections for newer layouts

    Can't check right now, but there was same problem (or similar) with Formula Classic.

    And would be cool if you could add option to change mirror resolution, because on my old machine i loose tons of fps. I will check how this looks and works now later, tho.

    I believe that the server also has to be updated.

    Depending what car you drive, you can go to the folder, eg. V10 in vehicles folder. At the bottom, you will see a bitmap titled mirrors. Open it with paint and lower the resolution. Save and you good to go. :cool:

    The problem is that the average user does not know about this so yes mirror res is a must have in the game menu.

    Thanks for low-speed FFB update. I was only experiencing issues with the regular karts and the problem is now gone or gone enough that it is barely noticeable.

    I tried the new build for the first time today and i've only drive the supertrucks and the super v8's. With the supertrucks everything was fine and nothing i didn't expect but the new tire sounds for the super v8's drove me crazy, i think they are absolutely horrible. Sorry but i don't understand why they were changed, they were a LOT better in the previous build. Especially the scrub sounds drove me crazy. Would be nice if it could be changed to the previous build i think. :)

    I probably spoke too soon. The karts are still a bit lumpy at very low speeds using the same settings that work well for all other vehicles. But I am sure this will get sorted soon. They feel great at racing speed, which is what counts more.
