– Fix to the crash that occurred with the Chevrolet Camaro GT4R on driver swap.
– Server: fixed erroneous car visibility in certain situations with limited opponent visibility.PHYSICS:
– Fixed an issue when a puncture caused by excessive tyre wear would compromise the suspension geometry upon returning to the garage.
Similarly to other puncture scenarios (pressure loss and flatspotting), the punctured tyre is now “patched up” after a pitstop/in garage but remains in a critical condition and is not to be reused.
– Adjustments to wet tyre wear in different temperatures.UI:
– Corrected credits page image compression.
– More detailed tyre condition indicator in the Pitstop MFD page for used tyre sets
NOTE: ranges from white to black based on the worst property of the worst tyre of the set.
– Corrected an issue that prevented dry tyre set 1 to be selected in the pitstop MFD when the car was on wet tyres.
– Fixed UI leaderboard erroneously showing placeholder entry with no laptimes to show.GRAPHICS:
– Corrected windscreen wiper mask for the Mercedes-AMG GT4.
