Gran Turismo 7 – Update V1.16 Deployed

Gran Turismo 7 - Update V1.16 Deployed

Polyphony Digital has deployed a new update for Gran Turismo 7, fixing a number of issues.

The previous GT7 update negatively affected the feedback levels using certain Force Feedback steering wheels. Update V1.6 now reverts the game’s Force-Feedback settings back to be on par with Update V1.13, with the exception of the SRT Tomahawk X Vision Gran Turismo, SRT GTS-R Vision Gran Turismo, and the Jaguar Vision Gran Turismo SV. These cars will have their Force Feedback intensities reduced.

Check out the full release notes for more details.

V1.16 Changelog:

Improvements and Adjustments

1. Car Settings
 - Fixed an issue where High Compression Pistons and Turbochargers were installed at the same time if certain inputs were performed.

2. World Circuits
 - Fixed an issue where selecting ‘Rivals Settings’ > ‘Rivals Selection’ > ‘Random’ in a [Custom Race] and starting with a Toyota GR010 HYBRID ’21 would result in a one-make race.
 - Rival cars’ wheel colors now match those displayed on the thumbnails in Lightweight K-Cup.
 - Fixed an issue where the time from the point of pit entry along with the actual pitstop time would be counted on some tracks such as Deep Forest.
 - Fixed an issue where changing car from ‘Settings’ > ‘Change Car’ in a [Time Trial] or [Drift Trial] event screen did not change the car’s thumbnail on the Top Screen.

3. Multiplayer
 - Fixed an issue where selecting ‘Race Settings’ > ‘Start Type’ > ‘Grid Start with False Start Check’ in Lobby would result in the actual start times of each car to differ.
 - Fixed an issue where entering a room during a race in some instances would cause the background to disappear and the game to freeze when leaving the room.
