UPDATE 1.06 is now LIVE.. New features are in OP

[vern]

PD decided to make a decent update so people get so excited they start seeing things

Can't wait to play, everything sounds awesome.

 

[VQuick]

Lots of great news in this thread. I'll be getting the update in the morning, though.

 

[Mubble]

Only custom tracks created after update can be used online.

If you reload an existing custom track and select to edit it, it will ask you if you want to convert it to the new format for use online 👍

Edit: Although this does alter the track somewhat.

 

[jonny_steez]

Any idea if you can put custom rims on standard cars??

 

[ZeGermanBastorD]

How do you un-borrow a car? Also, can't borrow stealths from what I can tell.

Jump in a car from your own garage, un-borrowed.

And yes, you can't share stealth cars. But that's not a minus.


Now, looks like your shared cars are save. I used one from a friend and drove some rounds. No mileage added & you can't modify the borrowed cars.


New sensitifity option for the sticks. 👍 Then let's try again, Vettel challenge.

You can "convert" your old tracks to the new online approved format..
Its just that they probably wont look the same so i guess you can say only the new tracks will work

 

[shirakawaa]

Is it my imagination or have they improved the graphics on some of the standard cars - particularly with the wheel arches. Most seem round now and not comprised of three straight lines.

The Suzuki Alto Works Sport Limited still looks horrible, and it's one of the most notable examples of bad Standard cars.
EDIT: however upon inspection some details (headlights) do look better than I remember.

Nope.

Surprised no one noticed this. The cockpit view now shows more interior both looking forward and behind. Just took out the NSX R and noticed I can see the air vents on the drivers side door and the sides of the seats as well as a better view of the mesh engine cover from behind.

 

[Whistle Snap]

Yup, you're right, no mileage added. Can't even oil change them either. That's a good thing. I assume you can use them simultaneously too.

It's much easier to flip cars now.

Twice on one lap in my Elise RM I manager to flip it.

great, any news about photo travel? replay options?

 

[Abscissa081]

AI is deff more reckless, to whoever was wondering if it is isolated. I just raced the Eifel Circuit Seasonal and good god, some of them were everywhere. first corner, on started spinning another checked up and slowed in the smoke. I went around.

 

[zora66]

From what I've seen no replay options yet.

 

[alfredchiwai]

I am playing B-spec with my friend. I just invited his driver and play. Need not get consent from him.

 

[Tommy_861]

Maybe they adjusted view per car?

 

[Madman Apex]

FYI: B-spec Indy DCC = 86,600 credits and 35,966 XP

I also wonder if the "vertical" composition has been in photomode before, or is that new?

the vertical composition has always been in photomode.

BTW according to your GT5 Matrix you get about 14846XP from that same B-spec Indy DCC race. so it appears that the credits are down but the XP is up.

Course generator now has bank angle variables for all templates! Now it's 10x more awesome

 

[Mubble]

You can change the time of day on certain course maker tracks by 10 minute intervals - previously 1 hour intervals.

 

[jamesmack]

Online Leaderboards surely?

 

[Torquemada42]

God knows how the 1040bhp 850kg Minolta Race Car has less performance points than a 430 Scuderia with 600bhp!
And how my 230bhp Spoon Integra has less than my 80bhp Fiat 500!

This is bad... Could make PP unusable if there's a lot of that sort of thing

 

[iWarMachine10]

From what I've seen no replay options yet.

damn, we need those replay options! and i need an option to change the music inside the race

 

[Abscissa081]

Go Kart has 512 PP. 400hp Race Modded Evo 9 has 512. oh no...

 

[BWX]

You can change car to watch w/o black screen I guess. At least something improved.

 

[v-man]

I seem to have noticed that too, i thought i was seeing things lol, can anyone confirm this??

 

[iWarMachine10]

i can't stand the awesomeness of this update...PD you're rocking the house!!

 

[UkHardcore23]

Dont want to read through 17 pages so could someone answer this for me..

Has the AI been improved? So we are not winning races by 50 seconds etc?
