RaceRoom – New Update Deployed – Porsche DLC Release Tomorrow

Sector3 Studios has deployed a new update for the RaceRoom racing simulator, in preparation for tomorrows Porsche DLC #1 release.

For the first time, the RaceRoom simulator will feature officially licensed car models from the famous Stuttgart Sportscar brand. The first Porsche DLC will contain three new Porsche’s in the form of the Cayman GT4 Clubsport911 GT3 Cup and 911 GT3 R.

Besides the usual enhancements and fixes the new RaceRoom build features some tweaks for VR and Triple Screen users and also adds further improvements to the AI system.

Changelog:

Game:

  • Added a default profile for Fanatec CSL Elite PS4
  • Added a new selector for the strength of the collision effects in the FFB options menu
  • VR – Added an optional start-up argument to make the monitor presentation of the VR session be toggled on from the start, without needing to use the keybind. Mostly used for events or regular streamers. Add “monitor” to your VR start-up argument, for example “-vr 1.5 monitor” to toggle on the monitor presentation.
  • VR and Triple Screen – Fixed an issue with skydome being offset vertically as well as appearing broken in rearview mirrors on large track scenes like the Nurburgring.
  • Triple Screen – Tweaked clip plane value for a camera to avoid seeing cut objects, at the cost of some flickering in the distance.
  • AI – further improvements to make AI more careful around pit-entry, decreasing risk of AI overtaking a pitting car on the wrong side of path
  • AI – further improvements of AI side-by-side logic
  • AI – Improved their decision making in changing tyres or not when having to refuel in a non-mandatory pitstop race
  • Potential fix for a 64-bit crash when entering a race with triple screen enabled, after applying changes to graphics options.
  • Fixed a crash reported when using an OSW / DD wheel with MMOS FFB 2014 in 64-bit
  • Fixed a wrong Bosch label on the Callaway C7R virtual display.
  • Fixed an issue where the front headlights would turn off if the taillights were broken by an impact.
  • Code reworked to attempt and get rid of an issue where some controllers are sending throttle and brake inputs constantly until the user moves the wheel or a pedal.
  • Fixed a case in Spa Combined when the game would thinks a player has left the pitlane i the player was leaning against the exterior wall at La Source.
