All newsPlayers around this dateRead on Steam

Regulations system

  • A unified system for verifying that vehicles comply with competition regulations has been created

  • Regulations presets have been created

  • Option to select a regulations preset for an online room

  • All regulations in Career mode have been updated to the new system

  • The regulations are applied in duels

In the next iteration:

  • Complete customization of regulation presets for online rooms

  • Regulations for the asynchronous TOP-32

  • Assist type check when entering competitive modes


Livery editor

  • A comprehensive reorganization of all stickers and their categories to improve the user experience

    • We’ve worked to create a logical structure that won’t require significant changes in the future

    • As part of the reorganization, several stickers were removed due to changed usage requirements; for most of them, a replacement to similar stickers have been set up. Check your saved liveries - you may want to make adjustments!

    • Many new flags have been added

  • A livery quality setting (sticker texture resolution) has been added

  • Added names for sticker categories

  • Added a section for saved colors in sticker painting

  • Fixed and improved pattern stickers:

    • Many now have colorable layers

    • Fixed incorrect tiling for some patterns

  • Stickers with 2 or more color channels are now marked with an icon. Categories consisting entirely of such stickers are also marked with an icon

  • Keyboard actions for “Undo,” “Duplicate Layer,” “Copy Size,” “Copy Color,” and “Paste Color” have been reassigned based on player feedback. In the future iteration: rebinding of all hotkeys in the editor will be available

  • The “Projection Type” action has been assigned to a gamepad button (D-Pad down)

  • The “Pearl” material has been disabled; it will be restored in the future after being fixed

  • The dialog window for applying changes when exiting layer editing has been removed; changes are now always saved. The corresponding dialog window for the entire livery remains when exiting the editor


Graphics

  • Improved shadow quality on the “High” and “Ultra” graphics presets

  • Fixed an issue where the engine sound was missing during a race after switching cars in the pre-qualifying round of the career mode

  • Fixed an issue with the assist changing when switching control schemes during a race

  • Fixed an issue with the drift school loading indefinitely
