Update 1.12/1.13 Undocumented Changes Thread

[Ameer67]

You can look left/right when parked in pits.

I can confirm this. It only happens when you get on track and then back out though.

 

[Noname0529]

Nope.



Go to 15:22

So, OP might want to remove that.

I think it might have to do something with regions. I'm in the US region I just noticed it.

 

[NEMESiSNiSMO]

Another confirmation but it isn't specifically a 1.12 change, it happened to me as soon as the "full screen" viewing option became available so 1.11 perhaps?

I only noticed it since 1.12 with the cars I was working on before 1.12. I like it.

 

[FoRiZon]

I can confirm this. It only happens when you get on track and then back out though.

Like i was said, the Sierra is actually a basis for the upcoming course maker. So only Sierra can do that.

Youll grasp it if you already played GT5.

No cockpit view in the premium FC Miata at Zahara.

Wait. First the Leaf, then the Lancer '05, and now this. I dont even have that problem.

Pics please?

Someone said that BMW M5 don't have cockpit but I drove it today and cockpit is there...

I think they said M5 '05, but isn't that the standard one (hence no cockpit)

 

[KazaMR2]

I found that my S15 (Premium) wouldn't go into cockpit view on the release of 1.12, but then the next day it could.

It's NC, not FC. FC is the RX-7 gen code. And I've driven NC Roadster on Zahara on Tuesday and cockpit view was there for me.

I think there's a pretty large consensus in the 1.12 Car Sounds thread that there has indeed been a significant change to sounds, so can that be added to the list?

The video I made is in that thread...

 

[robert81]

Why do car engine sounds, tyre sounds keep dropping in open lobbies ive experienced this in every lobby since the update

 

[NEMESiSNiSMO]

Probably due to them trying to improve the sound. Might be a hot fix or 2 from getting sorted.


Undocumented Change
Unsure if already mentioned or if specifically new to 1.12. When going to photo mode, the second car to select does not have to be on the Favorite list as it used to be at some point.

 

[05XR8]

I couldnt before 1.12 update. But, now I was able to add Driver number to my SLS GT3. Finally have made my proper matte bright green #63 Erebus Motorsport GT complete.

 

[Streeto]

A small, quite unimportant change, but a change nevertheless;

After exiting an online lobby, the game will autosave BEFORE connecting to the lobby interface, whereas before it would save half way through this connection procedure.

 

[LeoStrop]

When seeing the replay, the option "Instruments only" is now "Gauges only"

 

[Johnnypenso]

Evo IX GSR'05 has lost cockpit view on 'Zahara'. Confirmed by @FP12.This is a bug not an undocumented change.

Toyota FT1 VGT has a 'KERS' system. Confirmed by @SkilledRacer.

Is that an undocumented change?

Added it to the OP....as an ongoing discussion.

 

[sparkytooth]

Cockpits not working is somewhat of a glitch. It happened to me once in a Huayra

 

[GTbooSTI]

Not 100% sure if this is new?? but now in arcade drift trial both sector and full lap modes can be chosen from the driving options menu. Instead of having to exit to track selection to switch

 

[MockngBrd]

I find the engine sound goes away in online mode once i change to cars i have never used before.

I don't remember for how long, but that's been available before 1.12

 

[smskeeter23]

Not sure if this has been mentioned but the penalties at the ring have been MASSIVELY reduced. I had a BIG off into a wall hard tonight backed up, drove back across the grass, and back onto the track without going red. At that point I just started trying to see what it would take to go red. Bounced off a bunch of walls and didn't get a penalty until right at the end. Big difference I say.

Another thing I noticed is that there seem to be more sparks in replays now. Not like it's all the time, just more often than before.. You even get them if you hit a barrier hard enough. Never saw that before.

the sparks (on the ring) are there since a few updates ago.
Also when hitting or scratching a barrier (AI as well as your own car). Very well visible at night.

 

[xZAMGMarmite]

Is that an undocumented change? FT1 VGT 'KERS' system

Yes.

 

[NJ72]

Yes.

I wouldn't say it's an undocumented change, it is just a feature of an added car which is documented.

Same as the KERS system on the Nissan VGT. If it had been implemented without KERS in the first place and then it was added in this update, undeclared, then yes. But in this instance I don't think it is an undocumented change.

Just my opinion though

 

[hobanator24]

Not sure if it's new, but the AI can now use downloadable cars. Just did the 600pp racing car seasonal event & one of the AI vehicles was the Nissan GTR Nismo GT3 Team RJN.

Nope. Only for seasonal.

I remember on the VW VGT patch I race an M4 Coupe on one seasonal. So no.

"When driving online, your car will now ghost anytime you press the "start" button."

I turn penalties off in my lobbies so that very thing can't happen. Now I'm gonna have to ask everyone not to do it. I hope it's a bug & they fix it asap.

Stupid question, why would you want that?
