Project CARS: Build 704 testbereit, Details zu Entwicklungsfortschritten

Slightly Mad Studios stellt mit Build 704 eine neue Pre-Alpha-Version von Project CARS bereit. Hier k�nnt ihr euch informieren was sich in den letzten 14 Tagen von der aktuellen Version bis zu Build 695 getan hat.

Project CARS: Build 704 testbereit, Details zu Entwicklungsfortschritten ZoomF�r Teilnehmer des World of Mass Development-Projektes Project CARS die mindestens den Status Team Member+ haben ist jetzt das Pre-Alpha-Build 704 verf�gbar. In den vergangenen zwei Wochen haben die Entwickler wieder so ziemlich in allen Bereichen an der Verbesserung geschraubt.

Highlight der Entwicklungsarbeiten in der Vorwoche war dabei einerseits das Build 698, welches auch f�r Junior Member+ angeboten wurde, sowie der erstmals fahrbare BMW 320 Turbo Group 5. W�hrend ein Schwerpunkt in den kommenden Wochen auf der Verbesserung der AI liegen wird, hat sich in dieser Woche von den Detail�berarbeitungen bei Fahrzeugen und Strecken abgesehen auch einiges im Bereich Karrieremodus getan.

Get�ftelt wurde aber auch an der Fahrphysik und hierbei hervorzuheben an dem Fahrverhalten mit bestimmten Reifen als auch an den Next-Gen-Konsolenversionen. Wie immer k�nnen alle �nderungen der jeweiligen Builds mit den nachstehenden Changelogs zu den einzelnen Versionen im Detail nachverfolgt werden.

-Fixed various displays of driver names in career (contracts, news, emails and standings), so that player now uses the name they chose when starting a new career, and AIs use their localised strings. Player surname is also displayed when required.
-Added CareerPlayerInfo data to the profile, to store the values the player can set in the CareerStart screen. Fixed up the New career so it reset the old save properly including non-profile vars like the calendar date.
-Passing through different UI values for Career New and Continue so they can be handled differently
