Any pictures of this? sounds bad, but I guess that is one way to bring the framerate up.

Online tyre bug fixed?

Online tyre bug fixed?

You mean the pit bug?

No.

And it's not just online either.

 

[MyogiWarrior34]

here are some undocumented finds I got:

Before:
Standard Nissan Skyline R34 GT-Rs 99 - 00' models have their custom GT wing placed near the rear windshield.

After:
Standard Nissan Skyline R34 GT-Rs 99 - 00' models have their wing set close to the rear edge of the car now; like before.

You can now change car within any of the GT Auto's menus. Whereas before you could only do it in the paint or parts submenu.

Thanks mate. It's amazing how long does this take to them to fix it.... Quite dissapointed with PD

You sure? I remember you could change car at the menu with oil change and those other options.

Well, smoke was pixelated even before this update. Generally in GT6 jaggies from GT5 were gone, but instead we have pixels visible from the "inside". You're not talking about jagged edges like in GT5? just pixels more apparent than before?

I'll give you guys a HD Pic. Ill update this post.

It might have been last update then, but at one point I remember not being able to do it.

Also F430 Aero Kit has been fixed.

Custom Rear Wing






Room Thingies




New UI? Smoke seems Denser to?

​

 

[Kitten]

Can't wait to try out the custom wing option!!!

Each Car is Different. Some can be lowered more some can be raised more :\.

I was just racing online and I didn't notice anything different with the graphics (nor physics), it certainly was not smoother. My guess is that GT6 is CPU bottle-necked more than GPU, allowing them to push the 3D mode without making significant graphical savings.

@Frizbe the dials are like that since 1.05.

@Snake17x - nope payouts the same in 1.05 - checked before updating

@mikeonthebike Yup I see better on-board FPS too.

@Davoxx Just did some burnouts on Willlow - no pixels, looks exactly the same as before - on what track you saw it ?

Here is what I checked

- GP/D in free run - still no tire smoke

- Premium Alpine - still no dash lights at night

- No Convertibles

- Elise reading in km/h not fixed

- M5 head-up display not fixed

- top speed not fixed

- flickering shadows as before

Since launch day you could hit the start button and access your car list from the GT Auto menu. You can change the oil in 10 different cars in about 5 minutes. This is one area that is greatly improved over GT5. 👍

- The Traction Control System (TCS) which is activated when driving off-track is now used only in sand/gravel pits.

Does this mean tubsuka is fully driftable again , what about grass will you spin wheels on grass?

 

[unit-one]

The video/ audio signal doesn't "blink" when taking photos now.

Before the update, when you took a photo and after you saved or exited the photo, the video and audio signals would turn off for a second. Now everything is smooth.

Apparently "some cars" includes the Evo 9 GSR for some reasons...
EDIT: I thought that this would apply to all the standards, but @khain said that a Supra can have a adjustable rear wing.

You couldn't add a wing since 1.00.

 

[BrandonW77]

Havnt tested much.

Yeah, but usually by the next morning there's a whole list of goodies that people have found. Maybe our detectives were caught off guard by it coming a day earlier than normal. Looks like a few of the changes are quite good......but making the "real" slipstream weaker was not necessary as it was already very weak and just about perfect.

 

[GordonS]

Copy settings enabled! Or was it already in 1.05?

It is.

I think it doesn't apply to all stardand cars, Supra, for example can have adjustable rear wings. By the way, think that was one of the coolest things they changed so far. Hope some other parts can be changed like that.

 

[vasiliflame]

Yes

Thanks buddy only major gripe I had with gt6 that just made it mehhhhhhh! Now if they can just give us rest of updates that be great. Gt6 isn't bad but still it should be bigger and better than 5 but we all know this should be called gt6 lite

Thanks for taking time to answer my question

This update gave me hope of PD.. I man now there isn't stupid TCS. And we can have old GT5 Sections for drifting as new tracks sections like Willow.

And The Custom Wing is very great step. Next Tire width? ?

OT: Going to clean dust from my 3D goggles. (report later)

The TCS is not removed at 100% as @Isho notice it !!! So yes it is better now but not good enough.

 

[Vagabond]

Enough about the damned smoke... and enough slow chat. This thread is supposed to be a useful resource, not pages and pages of off-topic 'banter'.

 

[Johnnypenso]

The Midgets' spoiler bug is now fixed.

I need more details..as in what was the spoiler bug to begin with and how was it fixed.

Also F430 Aero Kit has been fixed.

More details...what was wrong with it and how was it fixed.
