(MST/Speedmaniacs.de) - Mit Übernahme der Weiterentwicklung von rFactor 2 durch Studio 397 erfolgte in diesem Jahr die erste richtungsweisende Änderung für die 2012 von Image Space Inc. veröffentlichte PC-Rennsimulation. Das seit den Abendstunden des 20.12.2016 verfügbare Build 1108 ist nicht nur das erste Update für das Studio 397 verantwortlich zeichnet, sondern auch ausschließlich, wie auch alle kommenden Versionen, via Steam erhältlich.
Während der Schwerpunkt von Build 1108 auf einer Verbesserung des Oval-Racings liegt, wurden, wie in der Vergangenheit durch ISI auch, in verschiedenen anderen Bereichen Änderungen umgesetzt und Fehler ausgebessert. Mit der nun aktuellen Version hat Studio 397 auch das bisherige Modell, welches vorsah, dass man für die Nutzung der Onlinefeatures, um an Multiplayer-Rennen teilnehmen zu können, bezahlen musste, abgeschafft. Ab sofort ist dies nun wieder ein Standardfeature so wie es bei rFactor der Fall war.
u#rFactor 2 - Build 1108-Changelog:#u
Stock Car
-The Safety-Car is now set to ?non-collidable' by default - testing has shown this can help avoid certain oval-related caution situations in which the Safety-Car has trouble weaving its way to the front of the field. The value can be set to ?collidable' in the player.JSON file by editing the following values: "Safety-Car Collidable": true. After this update, we recommend server admins backup and remove player.json and multiplayer.json, so that new ones are generated containing all new options and defaults.
-Several minor adjustments and tweaks to help optimize scoring.
-Further improvements to the track order of cars leaving the pits under caution.
-Fixed a bookkeeping error under caution with one lap until restart.
-Changed AI behaviour to prevent pitting on the last lap of a caution. This helps to avoid messy and disorderly restarts and it makes the AI look a bit smarter too.
-Added an extra message to the Low Speed Information pop up: "Please pass the Safety-Car.? This should help you be more aware of where you are with respect to the Safety-Car under a full course caution and should improve sorting overall as drivers no longer have to guess whether to pass the Safety-Car.
-Changed pit exit behaviour to allow cars to be placed in a large gap rather than behind the whole field, which might be nearly a full track length behind the car exiting on some of the smaller ovals.
-Fixed pit behaviour: A car entering the pit lane after a race resumes from a caution will no longer be able to continuously lap the field during the next caution.
-Fixed a possible scoring mix-up when a full course caution was called while the race leader was in the pits.
-Fixed a bug in which cars starting late from the garage area (those that did not press the Race button in time), after the field had gone ahead, were sometimes wrongly scored at race start. Cars starting late from the garage area now have to wait for the entire field to pass the pit-exit line to be able to join the race and go on track.
-Added a new single player feature "AI Formation by Position" that when set to "true? in the player.json attempts to line up the AI during yellow flag/formation laps according to your position behind the pace car instead of relative to surrounding cars. This seems to work better on short ovals, whereas the old (default) way might still work better for road courses.
-Added new options for configuring an oval server, which can be found in the CustomPluginsVariables.json:
-Added two types of double file which can be configured by editing the value "DoubleFileType" where "0? is off (or single file), "1? will ignore lapped and pitted distinctions, and "2? (the default) is standard double file.
-Wave-arounds can now be set to on or off for more flexibility by editing the following value: "WaveArounds" "0? is off, "1? is on.
-Added the ability to configure number of caution laps by editing the following value: "YellowLapsMinimum"
-Added the ability to configure random number of caution laps editing the following value: "YellowLapsRandom"
AI
-Fixed AI behaviour to prevent them from taking off immediately after what should be their pit stop following their final qualifying lap, which would get them disqualified.
-Fixed AI behaviour to prevent AI from getting disqualified during qualifying on certain tracks where it is difficult to pit immediately after completing n-1 laps.
Physics
-Added a new TGM display. While driving, it was possible to pull up a graph showing the contact patch for each tyre that showed the temperature of the tyre at that point of the contact patch (ALT =). The second display now shows the tyre load.
-Changed TTool filename. TTool, a tool that is used to generate tyres for cars, used to output a file named "QSA? when you ran a real-time batch test. That filename has now been corrected to "realtime?.
-Fixed an issue where camber angles for tyres reported as zero in real-time telemetry instead of their real angle. Also, this now allows plugins to see the correct angles.
Driver Swaps
-Fixed occasional crash when a wheel gets reattached/repaired during a pit stop at the same time as a driver swap.
Graphics
-Fixed the multiview gizmo that allows you to enter your triple screen configuration. It now saves and remembers asymmetrical monitor configuration parameters.
-Fixed sporadic nVidia driver crash on certain tracks. The fix, which is only needed if you were experiencing driver crashes and restarts, can be activated by changing the value WorkaroundFlags=1 in the Config.ini with a text editor. Please make sure to delete your shader cache manually (the files in UserDataLogShaders) when making this change.
-Removed the option to disable HDR.
Dedicated Server
-Changed the logic so that the dedicated server properly moves on to the next track in all cases regardless of which sessions are active.
User Interface/Launcher
-Added an Engine Mixture setting to garage so it can be saved as part of a car setup.
-Updated Launcher icons.
-Added new user interface background image and splash screen.
-Fixed Launcher to work correctly in Steam's offline mode. It will no longer hang while attempting to download pending workshop items in this mode.
-Updated French language dictionary.
Additional Changes
-We've made racing online free for every user of rFactor 2.
-Fixed results file when VehFile uses escape characters.
-Removed DRS enabled/disabled messages for tracks without DRS zones.
-Added +skipmonitor as a command line option, which lets you enter from and exit a race directly to the main menu.
