rFactor 2: Build 1028 fÃ¼r ein noch solideres Spielerlebnis

Image Space Inc. stellt kurz vor der Ver�ffentlichung der Steamversion ein neues rFactor 2-Build und eine �berarbeitete Demo bereit �ber die sich Simracer hier an dieser Stelle informieren k�nnen.

rFactor 2: Build 1028 fÃ�Â¼r ein noch solideres Spielerlebnis ZoomDie Ver�ffentlichung von rFactor 2 via Steam steht laut Image Space Inc. unmittelbar bevor. Zuvor gibt es aber noch ein Update f�r die Rennsimulation mit dem laut den Entwicklern "eine gro�e Anzahl an Fehlern behoben werden und �nderungen erfolgen die unabh�ngig davon ob man nun Steam nutzt oder nicht das Spielerlebnis solider machen".

Auskunft �ber die einzelnen �nderungen gibt wie immer das offizielle Protokoll. Die Aktualisierung kann wahlweise �ber die rF2-eigene Updatefunktion oder einen manuellen Download erfolgen. Hierf�r stehen das im Download nur 322 MB gro�e Lite-Installer Build 1028, in dem weder Fahrzeuge noch Strecken enhalten sind sondern nur die Basisversion, sodass man anschlie�end die gew�nschten Spielinhalte nachinstallieren kann, und der 882 MB GB gro�e rFactor 2-Demo-Installer zur Verf�gung. Zur Auswahl stehen hier jetzt die Corvette C6.R und der Formula Renault 3.5-Monoposto.

rFactor 2 Build 1028-Changelog
FEATURES:
-Improved detection of controllers by checking device VID and PIDs if it failed by device name (which could happen in some cases - apparently the names are not always consistent for identical devices).
-Removed a couple unused PLR variables.
-Added a new control �Load Vehicles� so you can load the full graphics and sound of temp cars while you are driving down a straight or parked at the side of the road.
-Re-enabled some gizmos for brake wear and temps.
-Defaulting camera zoom in and out to number pad 3 and 1, respectively.
-Now sorting opponent filters alphabetically.
-Added tire wear info to results file. Also, resume-from-replay now restores general tire wear.
-Added HDV variable AIBumpstop in order to control some occasional physics instabilities.
-Pressing Shift with the Increase/Decrease FOV controls will now adjust the seat pitch angle. In turn, that will be stored for the specific vehicle you are using.
-Practice on by default
-Removed tree structure from RFM tree scroll box.
-Moved damage to near the top of the pit menu.
-Added borderless window mode. This mode only works at current desktop resolution.
-Added times for sector 1 & 2 from best lap to the plugin scoring data. (Not necessarily the best sector 1 & 2 times, which are already provided.)
-Added cockpit.ini variable �DebrisIndexInCockpit=� which makes instance DEBRIX visible in cockpit view.
-Now keeping the last 25 trace files.

MULTIPLAYER:
-Added a boundary line between official ISI servers and all others on the multiplayer game list.

-Disabled a few lines of code that overrode our intended defaults.
-Reduced possibility of significant halts when someone joins in multiplayer.
-Fix for AI�s incorrectly trying to match non-AI driving lines on superspeedways
-Fix for occasional select box misdrawing at resolutions other than 1920X1080
-Fix for crash that happens when file defining a virtual vehicle doesn�t get transfered to a multiplayer client.
-Handled a potential crash caused by replacement vehicle having less tire compounds than the virtual vehicle.
-Made AIs coming out of the garage at least try to avoid slow cars in the pitlane.
-Fix for displaying a Race Events components from the RFM selector page, even when it�s package file doesn�t exist.

MODDING/PUBLIC DEV:
-SDK updated to latest Options.
-Recording path should no longer stick the 1st and last waypoint any closer than 80% of the defined waypoint distance.

Notes:
-You can (when available) install the dedicated server distribution from Steam as that works for both Steam and non-Steam matchmaker.

KNOWN ISSUES: rFactor 2 Build 1028 (NON-Steam)
-On rare occasion, when using �+connect� command via shortcut on server, users may need to retry multiple times when connecting to a password protected server.
-Launcher Message will display: �Component �Core UI 1.0″ failed to verify, removed from inventory�� In some rare cases this can cause issues with custom UI that also relies on core UI to handle some pages.
-The rFactor2 Matchmaker list will not count clients that join a server using rFactor 2 Steam edition in the �player� column.
-�RaceEvents� on workshop are not served by dedicated server. Non-steam clients and clients not subscribed to the workshop item will need to manually install �RaceEvents�.
