Comparison posts like this always make me curious so I felt like checking this out for myself. Not many people may know this but the RTGI is already present but disabled - it can be toggled through file edits, although the effect definitely isn't as strong as that official pic.

Same position on track but with a fancier looking time of day:

I can't replicate the nicer blurred reflections but this could just be a setting that I'm not aware of so far:

Was curious about the tire wall in the background though, in the official shot (and in my game, even without modding) the AO is much nicer where the tires meet the sand, making the wall look way more realistically placed in the scene. Is your shot from console? I wonder if the RTAO is weaker or missing there.

The RTAO and RT reflections are higher quality on pc, but the diffused reflections are missing like you said. But are you also saying that you can toggle RTGI in this build?

Why does the GT4RS sound so poor in FM23 when it sounds pretty darn good in FH5?

I don't think Forza Horizon 5 sounds "pretty darn good" in comparison.

Listening to the actual car, it sounds more like a mix of both Motorsport and Horizon than either being better. Horizon is missing a lot of the lower tones in the exhaust note compared to Motorsport.



Listening to both and the actual car, neither sound exactly like it and both sound kinda like it.

The RTGI is/should be what you're seeing in the first pic. The sun is hitting off the bright red wing endplate and bouncing onto the rubber of the tire.

The sound in Forza Horizon 5 is more accurate.

I know that its in the pic but im asking if i can enable it on my pc by editing the config file. Also do you have more examples of it like during gameplay and on vs off.

I noticed that something from FM7 has carried over to Motorsport, some cars either in front or in the mirrors will appear to be solid colored then all of the sudden the user created livery will pop onto it. It's slightly distracting because you're not expecting it but at least it's not going off and on like a strobe light.
Click to expand...
Speaking of strobe lights, the game does that when I'm in the opening menu screen. It blinks rapidly for a second, then 2 seconds after it stops it does it again in a loop.

It is using a (718gts?) F4 sound file i think.

Yes, the Forza Motorsport sound file definitely sounds like a flat four cylinder engine and not a flat six cylinder, like it's supposed to be.

Here's a video with both versions of the Cayman, for comparison:


Onboard of Cayman 718:


Onboard of GT4 RS:


I wonder why T10 keeps making these mistakes. It has happened so many times in Forza Motorsport already. Besides the copy paste sound files of many of the V12 engines, many cars sound like the wrong engine type.
The KTM GT2 sounded like a four cylinder when it was added, but was later fixed to the correct 5 cylinder sound. The Sauber C9 is still wrong, I believe, and the are several other examples.

Is this due to lacking quality control or have they just run out of time and plan to patch it later?🤔

It would be nice if they just correct all the wrong car sounds in one fell swoop, like an update dedicated to fixing audio and graphics together instead of doing this piece by piece. Its nice they are fixing a couple cars here and there but if they just take a few months and gather up all the wrong audio files and do it all at once so they wont have to worry about it again. The list is quite long...
 
Found two more settings that make the RT a lot more like that promo shot, one that dictates how glossy a surface needs to be to receive reflections, and one that hides the windows in RT reflections so you can see inside, GT7-style.

Notice now how the red is very prominently reflected on the tire, and the Shell text is missing from the reflection just like the promo shot:
1710094227899.png



And a couple more shots that show the proper working through windows in reflections:
1710095164137.png

1710095182872.png



And a couple showing how much the lighting is improved by non-glossy surfaces being able to reflect softly:

Doesn't seem to make any difference to performance. Both have a couple of visual bugs that could explain why they're not already present, but nothing huge IMO.
Click to expand...
This makes me even more angry that they are literally scaling and holding back settings in the pc version. The worst part is that the game doesn't even run that good with the scaled back settings and has some serious performance problems and visual bugs even after 5 months no matter what setup. They have the tools, they have the power, they have the budget and yet here we are after 5 months with downscaled graphics and bad performance. And we still didn't get any update about the RTGI update after launch, which is ironic because they couldn't stop talking about it before launch.

Also there is something you guys have missed from the promo shots. They have more trees and vegetation as always, just like i discoverd some time ago that the console version in visual mode has more trees and grass compared to maxed out pc version.


Look at the trees in the back of the wing, its missing compared to our shots. Im 100 sure that if you take the shot in visual mode on console the tree would be there.

As I mentioned in my post, the enhanced settings have visual bugs, and while it's very easy to simply take pictures that don't highlight them, it's probably not something you want to let loose on the public, especially when they're so eager to lambast FM8 over the slightest things right now. I wouldn't be so critical of the fact that a buggy feature isn't available to everyone immediately, even if it looks tempting.

It would make total sense to me if the story was something like: RTGI planned for post-launch -> launch was rough -> backlash happened -> RTGI, being a less critical feature, was put on the backburner while devs focus on more pressing issues (including graphics devs working to optimise things further).

So just like the rest of the graphical features that are currently in the game. Just like the broken RT reflections that are randomly missing on some modes, just like the RT reflections that are missing in the cockpit in some cars that are there in Forzavista, just like the broken shadows that are real time but are still jumping by tod, just like the AI car models that have super low lod even maxed out on pc, just like the missing trees and foliage in the pc version, just like the low quality textures on some tracks, just like the broken rain effects on the windshield and just like the broken shaders on some cars that doesn't show the proper material of the car, and i can go on and on.

This i agree with you but its been 5 months already and it was supposed to be there at launch. If you can't get your **** together in 5 months than you have a bigger problem.


Look when everything works and put together, its easily one of the best looking racing sim out there during gameplay. But the visual bugs and performance issues are really anoying and makes the experience less enjoyable. I say this as someone who really likes Forza and has played all of them since the first game.

I had hoped to see the return of some lost track variants on months where they couldn't bring us a whole new track. Particularly the Homestead road course that uses the banking for the final corner as that version is far better for overtaking/drafting, and Watkins Glen without the bus stop for some vintage GTO/GTP racing. Suzuka West as well, as East is just the boring half of the track.


The stock tune for the LMDh Caddy is pretty weird if I remember right, the toe numbers in particular and it would be interesting to see how they arrived at those numbers for the default setup.

It seems you can be way heavier handed with the changes to it than you can be with other LMP cars, but even doing the wacky Forza turn stuff like max front/min rear aero, 1/40 on swaybars, 100 accel in the diff it still understeers pretty bad.

Maybe it makes sense because it's quite a bit heavier than most LMP cars, but to me it feels like a fast GT car more than an LMP car... Which is actually kinda nice in a way as it feels less knife-edge-y which I find is more comfortable (and therefore less mentally tiring) for doing longer races.

This is really annoying for those of us that don't use the driving line. Headlights were pretty bad in FM7 too, but it's kind of a bigger issue now that every track has a full day/night cycle.

Lots of the tracks have enough ambient lighting at night that you don't notice too much, but there are a few spots where it is really obvious, like Blanchimont at Spa. Even though they added the big floodlights in may places, the Nordschleife has two of the worst spots at the final left hander in Kesselchen and the entry of Mutkurve. For both, you can't see the turn-in point until is too late in faster cars, unless you are using the line or maybe the track limits things, but you shouldn't have to use those to not die in a race car that has brightass lights for going high speeds at night.
Click to expand...
Perhaps they deliberately have the track lights on so bright to mask the bad/canned headlight effects. it's just not a game right now to show off the Series X's capabilities. I miss the night driving from FM6. Looked very convincing, minus a few oddities with the headlights automatically dimming, like on Spa and Silverstone.

I also can't understand why they haven't included the option to toggle hi-beam by now. It's an unfinished mess. The headlights do not interact with the environment like they should in the game or would IRL.
 
The spotlight cars are a huge disappointment.

Here are the spotlight cars of the update:
Wk 1: 2014 Alfa 4C
Wk 2: 2002 Nissan Skyline R34
Wk 3: 1969 Dodge Charger
Wk 4: 2014 Huracan
Reward: Pagani Zonda Cinque R

Open Tour Reward: Ferrari 599XX

2 of which are already in the game.

but the Car Pass is much more insane than before with an unexpected additon, the Nissan Silvia Super Silhouette. The McMurtry will be out on April?

Forza Motorsport Update 6.0 Release Notes – March 11, 2024​

In the latest update, we have made significant changes to Car Progression to give you the freedom to equip the parts you want to install on your car regardless of Car Level.

Following the addition of Daytona to our track list in Update 4, we’ve heard your feedback and have changed the pit lane exit to address track-rejoin collisions and more closely reflect the track as it is used in real life events.
