Steam PTR 1.13.5

Major Changes

Car Physics

Racing and Racing+ Tires

Racing and Racing+ tire physics settings updated: The new parameters make car behavior more predictable during corner entry, braking, and sudden weight transfer between axles. In addition, the new settings significantly reduce the tendency of cars to understeer.

Aerodynamics

Aerodynamics settings for most cars reworked: More cars will now be competitive in Time Attack mode, reducing the gap between different models in the car fleet.

Body Swap Weight

Body swap weight adjusted: The updated settings will further reduce the gap between cars in the game roster.

Center of Mass

Car center of mass parameters updated: The new settings reduce the tendency of cars to roll over and excessive body roll in corners, allowing more effective high-speed cornering and better acceleration out of corners after reaching the apex.

Body Inertia

Car body inertia parameters reworked: The new settings reduce nervous behavior in high-speed corners, improve the sense of car weight, and make suspension behavior more predictable in fast corner sequences.

Brakes

Brake force settings refined: Braking performance has become more stable and predictable.

Tuning

Drivetrain swap from all-wheel drive to front-wheel drive have been added for the following cars:

• TTR

• EV6

• EV9

• EVX

• SFR

• WST

• WRS

• YRS

Driving Assist

Driving assist algorithms reworked. The update allows more aggressive corner attacks without excessive intervention from the assist system.

Game Physics

Reworked collision system between the player's car, environmental objects, and other players' cars added. New system results in:

• reduced car pushback during tandem drift contact;

• reduced impact of collisions with roadside objects;

• reduced risk of cars getting stuck on curbs and roadsides in the city's mountain areas.

Game Engine

Game engine version updated.

Overall graphics quality improved: Visual systems of the game refined.

Graphics Settings

Graphics quality settings added. You can now separately adjust the following parameters:

• draw distance;

• texture quality;

• reflection quality.

General Improvements

• Opponent selection in Time Attack races added.

• Game loading time reduced.

• Gear shifting speed slightly increased while using Prototype-class clutch.

Fixes

• Issue with transmission noise from other players' cars being played in first-person view fixed.

• Gear shift sound volume adjusted.

• Various issues on the "Wangan" location fixed.
