Project Motor Racing: Update V1.6.0.0 mit Verbesserungen der LMDh-Klasse, Online und mehr

  ZoomProject Motor Racing/GT Revival/GTR RevivalAlle BilderFast einen ganzen Monat hat sich das hinter Project Motor Racing stehende Team, dessen Rennsimulation auf Grund zahlreicher Unzulänglichkeiten von der Veröffentlichung Ende November einen schwierigen Start erwischte, Zeit gelassen, um nach dem im Januar veröffentlichten Update weitere Verbesserungen bereitzustellen. Entsprechend umfangreich fällt die plattformübergreifend seit Donnerstag, 12. Februar 2026 bereitstehende Aktualisierung auf die Version 1.6.0.0 aus.

Neben diversen Maßnahmen die darauf abzielen die Stabilität und Performance des Spiels zu verbessern, hat man auch das Fahrverhalten der LMDh-Klasse umfassend überarbeitet. Im Ergebnis sollen die Fahrzeuge vorhersehbarer reagieren und unter verschiedenen Bedingungen realistischer zu fahren sein.

Eine weitere Änderung betrifft die Standard-Bremskraftverteilung, welche nun näher einer 50:50 Verteilung entspricht, und Änderungen der hinteren Bremsengrößen, um besser echten Daten zu entsprechen. Auf Grund dieser Anpassungen empfehlen die Entwickler Spielern die ihre eigenen Fahrzeugabstimmungen nutzen die Bremsbalanceeinstellungen für LMDh-, GT3-, GT4- und 992 Cup-Fahrzeuge anzupassen.

Mit der nun bereitstehenden Version soll auch der Onlinebereich insgesamt stabiler funktionieren. Außerdem wurden das Wettersystem und die Tageszeitenauswahl für den Karrieremodus aktiviert, womit nun dynamische Bedingungen unter denen man startet bestehen. Sauber gegliedert nach den einzelnen Bereichen, gibt das nachstehend einsehbare Änderungsprotokoll all denen die sich im Detail für die vorgenommenen Überarbeitungen interessieren Auskunft über die 65 benannten Einzelmaßnahmen.
