[PhilSpinter]

Great update, keep 'em coming PD!

 

[CinnamonOD]

This was mentioned in the changelog

Oh ok

Must’ve missed it in my first read

Let’s pretend its not there, alright??

That's not an undocumented change.

 

[djdest]

Ok, I missed it too

The Le Mans WTC 700 race is now correctly listed as 30 Minutes in all locations.

There's a new Roulette win animation.

Ah ****, here we go again.

 

[br1x]

Can definetly add fuel consumption to the list, the CLK LM seems to be far better now and the F1 GTR a lot worse when I tried in Daily Race C

 

[B80]

Again? There was already a new one with the previous update.

They seem to love 'optimising' the roulette wheel don't they.

Maybe they have a roulette dept who spend all day thinking about it.

They need to optimize it some more so I'm not receiving the lowest prize every single time...

To the Scapes experts, where can i find the new slideshow option for auto demo? Been trying to find it

Just did a race at Spa 24h with a clear start and torrential rain midways through, so I'm also confused as to where that list came from.

When you go to custom race for a circuit and then to the custom weather there are 2 options :

1) you can set the weather for the start and end of your race differently (= dynamic weather as it changes from 1 type to the other over the course of the race)
2) you can only set 1 type of weather for the entire race (= no dynamic weather)

I don’t do custom races myself because of the poor payouts but it seems some people have experienced dynamic weather on tracks that only have 1 weather slot. Some possible options for that :

• Perhaps if you put random weather in the only weather slot, the weather can still change? I thought the game would just pick a random weather option (dozens available) and stick with that one.
• Another option that might feel like dynamic weather (but isn’t) if you start on a wet track but it’s not raining anymore. During the race you will see the track dry up on the racing line but the weather itself is not dynamic.
• Maybe another option is that some events from career, championships, missions etc have pre-baked dynamic weather but custom races on that track don’t allow for it.

All the data I pulled from the game is from very early after release, I believe it was patch 1.05. I haven’t checked since if anything was changed (but it sure wasn’t in patch notes).

AFAIK every cars PP has slightly changed.

 

[RACECAR]

I have noticed going into Sport mode prompts a updated Racing Etiquette video

Covered in the official patch notes:

Cars in collection are now sorted by year instead of file name

I think that was in the game from day 1, the garage icon changes depending on the size of the garage or level

If you follow the post you can see that the Level 50 garage in the post does not match the Level 50 garage in the Gran-Turismo post that I link in the comments. Hang on, I'll pop them here to make it easy:

I'm not trying to be annoying, but this is still inncorrect.

What do you mean only 1 weather slot? When setting weather to "Custom weather" instead of "Preset weather", the amount of weather slots depend on how long the race is. 5 lap might only have 2 slots, while a 2hr race will have a bunch.

As I mentioned before, I have for example done races at RBR and Spa in custom races, with multiple weather slots which I set all to random. And I've had a sunny start and rain later on.

Same with a lobby race at Autopolis, the host set all weather slots set to random, and behold, rain hit us late in the race.

I've never had only one weather slot in custom race or lobby. Must be for only 1-2 lap races or something. But dynamic weather (wet/dry) happens at least on, from the top of my head:

Autopolis
Red Bull Ring
Spa both versions
Nürburgring all versions
La Sarthe all versions
Tsukuba
Suzuka
High Speed Ring

Might be forgetting some, but those above I have experience dynamic weather on in custom race and/or lobbies.

Not sure when this happened but there is a whole slew of new options available during Time Trials. Tire wear, fuel consumption, all sorts of stuff.

Weather slots are dependant on race length. A couple laps at Spa are not enough for more than one weather slot, but increase it to 7 and you'll have 4 slots for example. This applies to all tracks regardless of whether they have rain available or not (in which case you'll just be able to select the cloud coverage, haze, etc.)

Was the engine start when you change cars in the garage there before the update? I don’t remember it being there.

Are you guys just trolling OP? Are we going to do this for every item?
