Community Announcements - [Sector3] Sonat Ozturk Highlights: - Added garage phase to Multiplayer. This is a 60 second phase before race to allow players to change their car setup and fuel. - Changed login flow and integrated with Steam Web API.

Game - Added support for Fanatec pedal vibration. Players who have a Fanatec pedalset with vibration can tweak these via the controller file. FFB pedal throttle vibe zero magnitude = 0.01 // Throttle pedal vibration at 0rpm (reference point) can be set between 0 and 1.0 FFB pedal throttle vibe slope = 0.15 // can be set between -99999999.0, 99999999.0 FFB pedal throttle slip vibe= 1.0 // Throttle pedal vibration on tire slip. can be set between 0 and 1.0 FFB pedal brake slip vibe= 1.0 //Brake pedal vibration on front tire slip. can be set between 0 and 1.0 FFB pedal brake vibe slope= 5.0 // Slope for brake pedal vibration based on speed and braking %. can be set between -99999999.0, 99999999.0 - Fixed an issue where the game could crash while loading a replay. - Fixed an issue where game was adding fuel in liters instead gallons while refueling during pitstop. - Increased controller axis movement threshold used when detecting input (so that the player has to press the axis 90% down before it gets bound in options). - Removed the now obsolete manual login screen, modified error screen and added retry button so the player can retry login instead of having to exit the game completely to retry. - Added potential fixes for freezes that were occurring when game was trying to save replays. - Removed fuel multipliers from DTM 2015 as they were causing issues in Championship. - Fixed an issue where cars started without brakes if player skips the first race session in a 2 race format race. - Fixed speed of background music changing after watching a replay. Multiplayer - Added garage phase to Multiplayer. This is a 60 second phase before race to allow players to change their car setup and fuel. The garage phase ends either at 60 seconds or when all players have readied up by pressing Race. - Added a new setting to dedicated server called “Non Ready Pitlane Start Delay”. If set to 0, players that failed to press race before garage phase ends, gets put on the grid as normal. If set to any other value, the player starts from the pits as penalty and cannot drive until that value in seconds has passed. - Fixed an issue related to slow responses from/to servers that fixes cars continually remaining at ping 0. Added potential fixes for connection issues that were causing some players to get disconnected. - Fixed issue with session timer being off by 10-16 seconds sometimes, and not counting laps done within that time. - Fixed an issue with drivetrain oscillation calculation that was causing inaccurate torque values in Multiplayer, causing cars to flip and float around unnaturally when elapsed time was reset to synchronize time. - Fixed issue with being unable to change gear after walkthrough phase in Multiplayer. - Fixed issue with "Waiting for Server Response" popup sometimes showing up and remaining on screen, after joining a multiplayer server. Sounds, Cameras, Physics & AI: - Fixed handbrake pressure being null on cars with recently updated physics. - Fixed Honda Civic rear view camera. - Added new TV Cameras for Nurburgring, Mid Ohio, Zandvoort, Sonoma Raceway. - Fixed a case where player was given a cut track warning when entering the pitlane at Bathurst. - Fixed a couple of garage spots at Salzburgring that were outside of the pitlane limit. - Fixed a congestion issue when all AI’s would pit in simultaneously at some of the Nordschleife layouts. - Increased fuel use estimations for most of the track layouts to a safer level, addressing all issues where AI’s wouldn’t embark enough fuel to complete a 15 minutes race session. - Nurburgring: Merged cut rules between difficulty levels. - Monza: Fixed issue with AI not pitting. - Laguna Seca: Fixed issue with AI not pitting. - Zolder - Fixed AI hitting pit exit sign when leaving pits in practice and qualifying sessions, - Mid Ohio Turn 1 - Made the cut track rule less strict. - Added bigger grids for Suzuka, Hockenheim, Hungaroring, Slovakiaring, Monza, Laguna Seca, Norisring, Nurburgring, Oschersleben, Lausitzring and Raceroom Raceway, Mid Ohio, Moscow Raceway, Shanghai, Zolder.

The size is mainly due to the track fixes, optimizations and bigger grid updates. All those tracks' data files have to be updated.
Really, that starting bug @Alexander Dornieden mentioned should be investigated until the weekend because of the TCOne Races at Sonoma.
