I'll try to get some footage but basically any car that's been dusted or just has naturally rough paint, go into the freecam and just pan sideways. You should be able to see noise in the reflections (like a circled pattern) that stabilizes once you're still. This is normal as it's just a performance saving measure for having rough reflections at all, but as of the last update I feel like I'm noticing it on more cars. It could totally be placebo and I'm just noticing it more now because I'm paying attention to it too.

Sorry if this has already pointed out before - or if it was a documented change - because I was doing the GR.1 in the new Grand Valley just for fun, without HUD, so when I went to the pits, the HUD appeared automatically (so I was able to make the changes without having to guess 
)
When I went back to the track, it returned to my configurations.
Until recently - Chiron update - this didn't happen.

With Boost Weak, some of us are discusssing our experiences in the Custom Race thread. We’re feeling the AI have improved in pace. It can still depend what cars are being used and the how the player tune their cars. However, we really do need verification. Somehow.
On the same token, usually, I do see improvements when new tracks are added. With the addition of Road Atlanta, I got the same AI competitiveness when I ran my custom grids. With this latest update, it seems AI pace have been dialled up, not just at GVH, but at most circuits I’ve tried. Still trialling other circuits to check consistency. It’s looking good, but again, Id like to know if PD are improving the programming.

Thats pretty cool. I wonder if you can turn on POP for time trials. I was able to do this in GT Sport.

GT7 has used ugly low-res cubemaps since releaseHello, I have noticed pixelations in the reflection of the hood of my car.
This becomes more evident when I use the view where I only see the front of my car and the entire exterior is reflected.
Reflections are rendered slow and pixelated.
Also notice this ugly effect on the roof of rival cars in races.

I don't remember seeing this before. It seems like a downgrade to the flat screen in favor of the VR2 glasses.

I think it's dependent on the roughness of the material in question. Glossy cars are fine but something like the DeLorean gives it trouble unless you're still. If you want an extreme example, I've noticed that taking a Milennium Jade R34 (available now in the UCD) into the lit tunnel at the end of GV makes it really strong.

This update, I'm finding LeMans "greasier" feeling in the rain. Especially the back half.

That's what it feels for me. Grip isn't quite the same even using appropriate tyres for condition.

Yup - it depends on what you did last. If it was a sport race, it will show that, if it as a lobby race it will show that instead

Crazy, it'd always just show the trophies in the activity section for me.

They could improve the hood cam reflections by using SSR, but Polyphony doesn't seem very keen to it for whatever reason (probably performance). Would definitely look better than the current solution but oh well, FH5 uses it if anyone wants an example of what that looks like
