• Added realistic distance attenuation, filtering and reverberation

Physics

Traction Control & Antilock Brake System

• Implemented a new systemic iteration of TC and ABS systems for all cars
• Implemented per TC setting Cut Threshold and Cut Power (low TC cuts later and less and vice versa)
• Implemented per ABS setting Cut Threshold and Cut Power (low ABS cuts later and less and vice versa)

Tracks

• Reduced grip levels of grass and gravel

Cameras

• Added the option to be able to tilt your camera angle

Rolling Starts

• Added a new severity level for cars that aggressively jump the start
• Those cars will now be DSQd
• This will prevent the rolling start from starting early if a car chooses to aggressively jump the start

Player Reporting

• Added the possibility to add comments to player reports in-game
• Added the ability to report players via the Race History screen

Settings

• Added Anti-Aliasing quality settings

League Points System

• A new League Points System has been implemented.
• Results from all splits are now merged into a single ranking, and points are awarded based on each driver’s position in this combined list.
• The points for the first (winner of the highest split) and last (last placed player in the lowest split) drivers are determined by the total number of registrations.
• 3 or fewer registrations: no points are awarded.
• 4 or more registrations: the winner’s points gradually increase up to a maximum of 200 points, which is reached when there are 18 or more registrations.
• The last-placed driver always receives 1 point, as long as there are at least 4 entries.
• Points for every other position are then interpolated between the winner’s and last driver’s points using predefined relative distances, which determine the gaps between positions.
• Drivers who do not finish the race or get disqualified are ineligible for points.

Updated Race Notifications

• When you signup for an online race the race notification will now trigger a prompt pulling you into the contest right before it is about to start.
• This will allow you to hop into a time trial or quick session before the race without having to worry about missing the contest

Hardware SDKs

• Updated Fanatec SDK to 4.06
• Updated Logitech SDK to 1.2.3

Fixes

• Race Results screen now shows Best Time instead of Total Time
• Fixed an issue where penalties could persist between gameplay stages
• Fixed an issue with time gained calculations not working correctly. Penalties for big cuts will now be applied correctly.

• Fixed an issue where you had no repair time for aero only damage
• Fixed an issue where the track map in the pit menu was jittering while cars were driving around the track
• Fixed an issue where you were unable to navigate Official Contests with a gamepad
• DSQ/DNF messages in the pit menu are now in sync
• Arm visibility settings now adjustable again
• Fixed an issue where you could send yourself a friend request
• Fixed an issue where spectator navigations and overlays would reset on stage swap
• Fixed an issue where liveries would be applied to the wrong car in online contests
• Fixed an issue where sound could be missing when rejoining a contest
• When you press “Exit Session” in the last gameplay stage the player is now sent to the main menu
• Fixed an issue where the tracklimit line disappears on Sector 3 on Hockenheim when on low settings

Known Issues

• Interior rollcage/sections with in-car camera sometimes not visible
