rFactor 2: Build 860 der Rennsimulation mit AI-Verbesserungen und Bugfixes

Entwickler Image Space Inc. hat weiter an der Stabilit�t seiner Rennsimulation rFactor 2 gearbeitet und jetzt als Ergebnis das neue Build 860 bereitgestellt �ber dessen �nderungen der Artikel alle wichtigen Infos enth�lt.

rFactor 2: Build 860 der Rennsimulation mit AI-Verbesserungen und Bugfixes ZoomImage Space Inc. setzt die schrittweise Optimierung des Programmcodes und der Verbesserung der Stabilit�t von rFactor 2 mit dem jetzt ver�ffentlichten Build 860 konsequent fort. Daf�r hat man unter anderem die Unterst�tzung von Windows XP und Windows Server 2003 geopfert und mehrere bisher zu Abst�rzen f�hrende Fehler beseitigt.

Im Bereich Multiplayer gibt es nun f�r den Dedicated Server eine neue grafische Benutzeroberfl�che die f�r eine noch leichtere Bedienung sorgt und umfangreiche Verbesserungen bei der AI f�r chancengleicheres Racing.

Wie gehabt wird f�r rF2-Spieler die Aktualisierung �ber die integrierte Updatefunktion angeboten. Optional kann das neue Build auch manuell �ber die rFactor 2-Website heruntergeladen werden. Die im Download auf 276 MB geschrumpfte Light-Version enth�lt exklusive der separat herunterladbaren Wagen und Strecken alle grundlegenden Spieldateien, w�hrend die 1,04 GB gro�e Basis-Version alle Hauptbestandteile des Spiels einschlie�lich Corvette C6.R, Marussia MR01, Renault Clio, Lime Rock Park und Malaysia auf Fahrzeug- und Streckenseite umfasst.

Zudem wurde die Demoversion zu rFactor 2 mit dem Honda Civic-Tourenwagen und der britischen Rennstrecke Silverstone aktualisiert.

rFactor 2 Build 860-Changelog:
FEATURES:
-Dropped support for Windows XP and Windows Server 2003 to make exploitation of state of the art Windows APIs possible.
-Added slightly more informative (as in, the actual file names that fail to load) logging to commentary loading.
-Ride height measurement (for aerodynamics and telemetry output) is no longer affected by vertical offsets in the undertray feelers. This was done so that the physics is more consistent between the player vs. the AI. This slightly affects the physics for the Nissan 370Z and it is possible that it affects some 3rd-party cars. Also, we fixed the HDV parameter CorrectedInnerSuspHeightRear to work with rear axles, and eliminated the hacky AIEvenSuspension and AITorqueStab variables.

BUG FIXES/OPTIMIZATIONS:
-Fixed crash on exit.
-Fixed TrackIR in 64-bit.
-Forcing playerfile variables to exist between their min and max upon load from file.
-Fixed bug with English version of the game to make degree signs for temperature (�) consistent through out.
-Fixed bug with RCD editing from UI in dev mode so we now create drivers (that exist in the veh file) that don�t exist in any RCD file.
-Reduced some violent collisions caused by tiny gaps in the wall.
-Prevent physics blow-ups caused by negative wheel inertias.
-Fixed possible crash at shutdown.

MULTIPLAYER:
-New dedicated server UI added as an option in the advanced tab. It can be used to start quick pick up races based on settings made by the conventional dedicated server.

MODDING/PUBLIC DEV:
-Modmode: Fixed pit location picking resetting the menu every time a location is recorded.
-Improved AIW editor waypoint by waypoint calculated speed matcher. It�s now less likely to get confused and auto advances the selected wp in the direction you are (or should be) working.

AI:
-Added an �AI setup� button to the �car tuning� page so that one can set the upgrades the AI should use for a specific track.
-Can set AI setup (select the AI from the grid, then select the setup you want from the garage, and hit the set to AI button), and it takes next time the car enters the garage
-Made the AI speed reduction due to darkness start at 0.5 light instead of .99. Made player car under AI control operate at %100 speed instead of being based on original driver rcd stats
-AIs now turn off engine when heading back into garage.
-Fixed a bug where AI can forget how to stop on their pit spot.
-Changed �AI Setup� button so that user dictated setups can�t overwrite upgrade configurations dictated by component. Renamed it to �Force Setup�, because it�s not just AI that are forced to use this setup, but the player as well.
