Das ist der ganz normale Patch-Wahnsinn bei S3-Studios.
Jedes größere Update ist extrem problematisch, weil versucht wird
a) Fehler zu beheben
b) neue Inhalte einzufügen
und
c) ein kommendes Update vorzubereiten.
Warum das immer chaotische Auswirkungen hat, kann man sich ja denken.
Bis jetzt hat S3 das aber immer gelöst uns das ist auch hier zu erwarten.
Dranbleiben! Die Hoffnung stirbt zuletzt.

... das war mal gar nichts, der patch behebt so gut wie nichts, genau die gleichen probleme wie vor dem patch.
absolut enttäuschend:
- noch immer unsichtbare autos
- lags
- joinlags
- positionsleiste fehlerhaft
- "zitternde" autos am start

das einzige was sich verbessert hat sind die ladezeiten, die sind wieder so wie vor dem letzten verhunzten patch.

Tweaks to Memory usage of Instant Replays and changed so instant replays always request 300 seconds length. Memfiles are now written to disk when becoming too large.

Player is now allowed to pit in non race sessions (to practice pitstops, change tires, refuel…). Before, the player would automatically be brought to garage menu after entering pitlane.

Fixed issue with timing on single lap layouts (ie Nordschleife Tourist) when starting from garage in non race sessions.

Fixed issue with best individual sector times being calculated incorrectly.

Fixed a case where enabling Manual Depth of Field mode wouldn’t always lock the focus plane on the currently selected car

Sounds, Cameras, Physics & AI:

Introduced “Stress factor” for AI. AI’s can now be pushed into making mistakes when under pressure. Likelihood of those mistakes increases from being chased and from collisions.

Improved AI awareness of opponents on their sides.

When two AI’s are side by side reaching a braking point, one will brake 3% earlier and the other 2% later, depending on longitudinal position and relative speeds

Increased awareness for AI when under blue flag and upon leaving pitlane for incoming traffic

Punctures : occurrence of tire punctures are now tied to wheel rotation speed rather than vehicle speed.

Reduced the bouncing of certain cars upon spawning in their garage location.

Fixed a case that would cause 4WD cars to run with differentials wide open

Fixed a case where DRS could disengage when driving over bumps

Audi TT Cup and TT RS VLN : Added rear downforce to AI cars to keep them more stable in high speed weight transfers where they are often caught losing control. Tweaked AI versus players collisions to be more fair to the player

Highlights of this update include:

Formula RaceRoom US is available!

VR updates

First appearance of new data displays

Various track updates


Game:

Shared Memory: Added information on upcoming flag system, updated minor version number. Flag system is currently awaiting UI implementation and made unavailable to players.

Shared Memory: Changed how tire wear is reported so it matches the tire wear text in data displays (1.0-0.0 range when tire wear was between 1.0-0.94).

Added support for starting the game on any detected screen. The option resides in General Video Settings. Fullscreen changes are only applying after a game restart.

Fixed an issue with updating a profile avatar with the game in fullscreen where the dialogue box would appear behind the game

Added a possible fix for a rare case where only the car shadow of a car would be rendered after switching focus from car to car or from camera set to another

Implemented Reputation System that will run and track player incidents. This is in alpha stage and we’re gathering data in the background. Nothing will be visible for players just yet.

Fixed bug where opponents session data sometimes caused championship files to be broken due to conflicting ids.

Fixed so the game doesn't crash when trying to load championships affected by the bug above.

Fixed issue with game window using the wrong style when going from fullscreen to windowed in a resolution that's lower than the default resolution.

Fixed a menu issue with percentage stepper buttons not being enabled when switching from minimum<->maximum allowed values.

Broadcast : Fixed a case where camera selection requests were resulting in the game cycling through cameras instead.

Added an upper deadzone setting for the throttle axis in advanced controller settings.

Fixed an issue with DRS getting disabled before the race ends in timed based race sessions.

Fixed an issue where the race was starting without the player if Race Monitor was clicked instead of “Drive” at race start.

Fixed an issue where the DRS wing animation would remain deployed after the race.

Fixed an issue where on certain tracks the result timing was showing A.I. cars doing an extra lap.

Made lap times go invalid if player is speeding in the pitlane, so you can’t get fastest lap that way. New HUD overlay to signal it. (Stowe Long is a good example of where pitlane could be exploited to shortcut the first chicane)

Fixed a crash that happened in Single Player championships if the player clicked the pit preset button and then the continue to next race button before game entered the pit preset menu.


Multiplayer:

Fixed the issue where a player's contact shadow was being left on the track after disconnecting from the server.

Fixed an issue where a time penalty for a non performed drivethrough had no effect on results.

Various fixes to some inconsistencies that was occurring on certain IPv4 to IPv6 mappings.

Fixed issue with MP results taking a long time to arrive when running a dedi locally where backend communication fails.

Fixed issue with DRS animation not working in race sessions for opponent cars.

Fixed so multiplayer replays are now marked as such in the Media Hub.


VR:

Rendering through coupled draw calls to improve performance while also taking care of the issue reported that objects and cars would appear 2D from time to time.

Multi-threaded some of the rendering to improve performance

Added three bindable keys to modify the user’s headset translations multiplier, which alters in-game head movement and eye-to-eye distance. Default value is 0.9.

Fixed an issue where the Startup Argument that was set for RaceRoom in the Steam client wasn’t being used when launching game from an external link. (ie a competition webpage)

Shortened the distance at which lower poly car models are used.

Temporarily disabled the rendering of particle clouds. They’re bugged at the moment in VR.


Sounds, Cameras, Physics & AI:

Fixed a bug where H-pattern gearbox cars would receive delays for both up and downshifts.

Fixed TV cameras at the bridge and gantry areas for Nordschleife Tourist layout

Cars no longer hover a few cm above the track

Formula RaceRoom 2 and Formula RaceRoom US have a special pitting system allowing them to perform fast pitstops.

Reduced bigly the probability of stress induced mistakes by AI’s
Fixed an issue where AI’s were accumulating stress by being followed by an opponent in the pitlane.

AI’s now ignore cars in the pitlane entrance lane if they’re not on it themselves.

Improved AI navigation in the pitlane.

Fixed an issue where AI would never start a qualifying lap around Nordschleife 24H when fuel multipliers were enabled.

Fixed so only damaged AI or AI’s on their inlap will use the Nordschleife VLN / 24H pitlane entrance by the start/finish straight

Fixed an issue where an AI going back to garage during a practice or qualifying session would never go out on track again

Fixed AI using up their P2P in the beginning of a race without saving them

Many more AI code tweaks to improve awareness

Formula Raceroom 3 : Improved the blending of the sound samples

Turbo cars : unloaded turbo pressure increased to deliver a better boost from a standing start.

Laguna Seca : Tweaks to AI lines

Portal & Backend:

Made optimizations to code handling content in portal.

Implemented individual car packs system which includes all liveries of a car. Livery packs will roll in very soon. For testing purposes we will start with just one in this case the FR US.

Changed so the livery clusters show how many liveries there are in total and how many you own in parenthesis.

Added so the essential packs that are purchased show date of purchase when hovering over them.

Added so we show prices in real currency based on player currency preference.

Changed so cars in which there are still liveries to purchase, the car does not appear as fully owned in store.

What’s New (Summary)

Flags

WTCC 2016

Game:

Changed so upon finishing a race with a slowdown penalty still active, the player will receive a penalty of 30 seconds added to his final result.

Fixed issue with video options breaking when switching monitors with same resolution but different refresh rates.

Changed so the slowdown time penalty you receive now factors in the actual track distance you have skipped to fix issue with finishing without receiving a penalty for cutting.

Changed so if the accumulated slowdown time penalty exceeds the set post-race time penalty for finishing a race with a slow down on your head, you are now disqualified from the race. Current limit is set to 30 seconds.

Fixed refueling sound continuing when refueling and returning back to garage in practice.

Fixed issue where "Pit timer" from previous event was showing when player was in a new session after completing an event with mandatory pitstop with a minimum pitstop duration.

Fixed an issue where player was sometimes able to change fuel when fuel usage was off. Player car will now always use default fuel amount if fuel usage is off.

Fixed issue with time of day setting not applying for race 2 and 3.

Fixed so slowdown cannot reach more seconds than post race penaltytime.

Xbox One controller profile: Swapped shift down and drs buttons so they match the 360 controller button layout.

Fixed Xbox One controller vibration issue.

Changed automatic DNF logic to allow players to stand still with their engine off if they're close to their pit box. So players can take breaks during long races without getting retired.

Changed so replay is no longer saved when crossing the finish line but only paused. It is now saved and closed when player finishes the race.

Fixed so headlights now strobe for 2 sec when button is clicked, or continuously if held.

Shadow splits are now always enabled.

Tweaked rumble pad/xinput ffb by disabling high speed constant rumble (steer force), rumble on grass and gravel (covered by slip effects) and engine vibrations.

Added missing return so now players get returned to menu if the pit window range is invalid for single race or championships.

Added session length format to shared memory. (if the session is time based, lap based or time+lap based).

Increased shared memory minor version to 5.

Various tweaks and fixes to data displays


VR:

Support for displaying VR sessions on a monitor. (New control to map : “VR Toggle Monitor view”)
Note: What's displayed on the monitor is a cropped copy of the left eye render for the VR headset. The crop avoids including the eye's hidden area mask and maintains the monitor window's aspect ratio. The overlays (menus, etc.) are rendered flatly on top of the cropped VR eye render.

The mouse cursor is no longer shown on the monitor window unless the game is set to show the VR session on the monitor.



Sounds, Cameras, Physics & AI:

Various AI tweaks and improvements

AI: spread out their pitstops more also in shorter races

AI: moved what they consider middle of race in lapped races back one lap

Idle engine sounds no longer include a slight presence of on-throttle samples

Fixed a case where brake sounds could be heard when standing still and steering

Brake sounds: ramp/fade/blend speeds/pressure settings improved for all cars except FRX, FR2 and FRUS

Audi TT RS VLN: AI speed tweaks

Aquila : AI speed tweaks

BMW M1 Procar : Chase camera tweaks

BMW M6 GT3 - Engine Throttle volume increased in cockpit

Formula Raceroom US : new sounds, AI speed tweaks

WTCC 14 and WTCC 13 : tweaks to fuel burn and fuel estimates

WTCC TC1 : tweaked action cameras

Karlskoga : lap not counting when passing through pitlane

Hungaroring : tightened cut track detection

Macau : Added TV camera sets

Monza : cut track detection tweaks

Moscow: Added helicopter sound sample to aerial TV cameras, cut track detection fixed on FIM layout

Paul Ricard 2A: TV camera to see the starting grid properly

RaceRoom Raceway: Added TV cameras sets

Sonoma IRL layout: Tweak AI lines

Zandvoort : Tweaked AI lines

Art:

WTCC TC1 cars : New driver animation

Switched Macau light setting to same as Paul Ricard.

Bathurst - removed tirewall blocker in mountain chicane

Zolder - Fixed weird bushes and smoothed track bumps a bit further

Portal & Backend:

Changed Leaderboard divisions to work on a percentage based system.
Division 1 0.00% 2.00% of best laptime.
Division 2 2.00% 4.00%,
Division 3 4.00% 6.00%
Division 4 6.00% 8.00%,
Division 5 8.00% 10.00%,
Division 6 10.00% 12.00%
Division 7 12.00%+​
Fixed so when a content is set to be free e.g. for a weekend it is not excluded from packs (essential and class packs) and still gets added as owned upon purchase.

Known Issues:

Hockenheimring: Some of the curbs are missing.

The new Flag Rule Settings are not available for MP.
We will release a hotfix patch tomorrow to fix these issues.


Game:

Changed the flag rule setting and added a new flag rule setting “Visual Only” which means all flags get triggered and shown but there are no penalties applied with exception of black flag. (SP only for now)

Added Display mode with settings windowed, borderless windowed and full-screen.

Fixed issue in data displays where standings page kept ghost entries when you were in the lead.

Introduced delta timing in data displays.

Fixed some occurrences of yellow flags for DNF cars.

Disabled displaying of yellow, blue, black & white and white flags while player is in pitlane.

Removed so slower class in multiclass race doesn't trigger white flag.

Disabled slip effects while changing tires during a pitstop.

Changed so content ownership isn’t required to load a replay file.

Fixed a crash that could occur when processing a camera reset callback after returning to menu.

Updated Fanatec SDK to 3.0. This should also fix the issue some players experience with their CSW 2.5.

Fixed issue with replays not using asynchronous rendering.

Fixed issue with an uninitialized variable when using Fanatec wheel.

Fixed an issue where H-Pattern mode would reset to Neutral when race start sequence starts.Thanks to Franconen and team-gtr3.fr for the report.

Fixed issue with Multiplayer advertisement banners not getting saved in replays.

Fixed an issue that could occur in game session if the player has a lag spike of over 10 seconds during certain sequences.

Game now invalidates both current and next laps in qualifying sessions, leaderboards and competitions if the player goes off track or wall rides in the last corners of a track.

Made brake disks pre-heated when starting a Time Attack session


VR:

Bloom and Light Shaft effects are now disabled in VR.

Made the HUD size dependent on the distance to it.

Made it possible to adjust the distance to the HUD via two bindable keys.

Fixed the rendering of particles and contact shadows.

Made the game use the SteamVR settings panel's/config file's resolution setting to set the resolution for the eyes instead of a number argument following "-vr" or "-oldvr". Any such number in the argument is now ignored.


Multiplayer:

Fixed so player nodes are marked as inactive and kept by the server if a player disconnects during a race session. This fixes the issue with broken results because of players leaving the server too early after a race. Also fixes results for spectators joining late.

Fixed so checkered phase ends directly when all vehicles have finished.

Fixed an issue with spectators not being able to join full servers.


Sounds, Cameras, Physics & AI:

Bathurst: AI Tweaks

Hockenheim GP : Tightened Cut detections

Moscow Raceway FIM : Tightened Cut detections

Nurburgring (all layouts) : Tightened Cut detections

Shanghai (all layouts) : Tightened Cut detections, AI tweaks
