Update 1.13.5
Global physics changes, new graphics settings, game engine update, and other improvements.
Car Physics
We've taken your feedback from the open beta into account and adjusted the car settings.
- Racing and Racing+ tire physics settings updated — the new parameters make car behavior more predictable during corner entry, braking, and sudden weight transfer between axles. In addition, the new settings significantly reduce the tendency of cars to understeer.
- Aerodynamics settings for most cars reworked — more cars will now be competitive in Time Attack mode, reducing the gap between different models in the car fleet.
- Body swap weight adjusted — the updated settings will further reduce the gap between cars in the game roster.
- Car center of mass parameters updated — the new settings reduce the tendency of cars to roll over and excessive body roll in corners, allowing more effective high-speed cornering and better acceleration out of corners after reaching the apex.
- Car body inertia parameters reworked — the new settings reduce nervous behavior in high-speed corners, improve the sense of car weight, and make suspension behavior more predictable in fast corner sequences.
- Brake force settings refined — braking performance has become more stable and predictable.
Tuning
Drivetrain swap from all-wheel drive to front-wheel drive has been added for the following cars:
- TTR
- EV6
- EV9
- EVX
- SFR
- WST
- WRS
- YRS
Driving Assist
Driving assist algorithms reworked — the update allows more aggressive corner attacks without excessive intervention from the assist system.
Game Physics
Reworked collision system between the player's car, environmental objects, and other players' cars added. New system results in:
- reduced car pushback during tandem drift contact;
- reduced impact of collisions with roadside objects;
- reduced risk of cars getting stuck on curbs and roadsides in the city's mountain areas.
Game Engine
- Game engine version updated.
- DirectX 12 support added.
- Overall graphics quality improved — visual systems of the game refined.
Graphics quality settings added. You can now separately adjust the following parameters:
- draw distance;
- texture quality;
- reflection quality.
General Improvements
- Opponent selection in Time Attack races added.
- Game loading time reduced.
- Gear shifting speed slightly increased while using Prototype-class clutch.
Fixes
- Issue with transmission noise from other players' cars being played in first-person view fixed.
- Gear shift sound volume adjusted.
- Various issues on the "Wangan" location fixed.
- Livery display for AMD graphics cards fixed. DirectX 12 is required for the fix to work correctly.
