Official Gameplay Features Deep Dive

v1.12.0 - Hybrid & P2P Widget Known limitation: 1. The current P2P mechanism is that if player has pressed P2P activation button during P2P cool-down duration(5s for BTCC), the cool-down duration will be extended. However the current game API does not output player's P2P activation button state, and when P2P enters cool-down duration, the available data from API can not tell whether player has pressed P2P activation button again, thus "P2P ready" color indicator would not match the actual P2P status in game under this situation. 2. After battery completely drained (0%), P2P can still be activated in game (and onboard dash screen will continue to count P2P activation time). However, when activate P2P at 0% battery, the game API data(motor state value) would always return "inactive" state, thus it is not possible for the widget to continue count P2P activation time. Note: The current P2P widget activation condition check options are set for BTCC, which are 15s max duration per lap, 5s cool down, minimum 3rd gear with over 120kph and positive throttle for activation. Those condition options can be customized in JSON file.

Content Roadmap for 2023 We’re very pleased to say that we are formalising our content release strategy for 2023 onwards, so you’ll know exactly what to expect from Raceroom through the year. From now on, you can expect regular pack releases every three months, around the end of each quarter, neatly interspersed with tailored drops of single cars, tracks or series livery updates. This means you can expect to see new content about every six weeks. As ever, each new release will tie in with exciting online esports competitions and events. Each pack will contain multiple cars – and sometimes tracks – curated around a particular theme. We’ll always try to introduce new cars that either strengthen existing classes or provide a new class that we think will bring something new and exciting to Raceroom. This year’s three remaining pack releases will be at the beginning of July, the beginning of October and then our usual pre-Christmas special release. The intermediary content will be smaller, very affordable releases, typically of individual cars or the latest new season livery updates for key championships. Following on from our On The Edge pack release at the beginning of April, in around five weeks you’ll be able to get your hands on the first of the new intermediate releases. We’re extremely happy to announce that it will be the new BMW M4 GT3, which will ship with a whole range of liveries from the international series it runs in. This will be followed in July by the second of this year’s quarterly packs, which will be geared around some officially-licensed Porsche content. This pack will star their new GT3 racer, the 992-model 911 GT3-R, which when added to the M4 is another boost to our already strong GT3 class. The GT3 will be accompanied by the latest generation 911 GT3 Cup (represented by official liveries from the 2023 Carrera Cup Germany Championship) and a real classic in the shape of the 944 Turbo Cup from the mid 1980s – the latter rocking some particularly old school liveries! The next main quarterly pack release, due in October, will see the release of a touring car themed pack based around the release of an iconic street track: Circuit De Pau Ville in the south of France. Pau is an absolute classic and a star of our old Race touring car game series: we’ve wanted to bring this into Raceroom for a long time – and we thinks it’s going to be worth the wait! We’re also still committed to touring cars, and there will be some exciting news to reveal on that front over the coming months. We’ll bring you more details on the remaining intermediate releases in the very near future: we've got a lot of fantastic content in the pipeline. Of course, we also keep a close eye on the community, and will always try and steer content themes around what we see people are asking for. We’ll also be delivering regular physics and general development updates over the coming months. Watch this space for more details!

ABB FIA Formula E – Gen3 Car Formula E Gen3 Car User-Guide Required Controls There are two new controls you’ll need to map: Increment Electric Motor Map Decrement Electric Motor Map You’ll find these under the electronics tab. You’ll also need Arm Attack Mode, if you don’t already have that mapped. Going from left to right, we have: Engine mode. The engine mode is in red, there are four total modes, 100kW, this is for safety car periods, 250kW, this is not normally used, 300kW, this is normal race power, and 350kW, this is automatically used with attack mode. SoC and Battery bar. This will show your battery amount in a number, and a bar to show how much battery remains. If you change your ‘Battery Units’ setting, it will display the remaining amount in kW, or percentage, depending on your choice. M Temp, this is the temperature of the motor. Speed, this shows your current speed. Brake Temp, this shows your front brake temperatures, there are no rear brakes, so we have no need to display those. Previous, this shows battery used on the last lap. Purple box, this will show your current lap time. Bias, this shows brake torque bias. Tire Temp, this shows the current temperatures of the tires. Target, this shows the amount of battery you can use per lap to make the end of the race. Note, this will be blank in practice sessions. Gear, this shows what gear you’re in. Batt Usage, this shows the amount of battery you’ve used this lap. The number can go negative if you regen more than you use. White box, this is the lap time delta. Regen bar, this will show how much you’re regening.

Added missing Limit Path option to Static Cameras in Camera Editor Material Editor Updates Added ability to set blend modes per material Added ability to set texture options for chroma and no detail reduction. Known issues AI will fail to line up for FCY Formation lap speeds are capped too low, so if the grid gets pulled too far apart, the back will fail to catch up in time AI aren’t particularly good at evading cars parked on track and will slow down considerably, sometimes just lining up behind them AI behaves badly when there is a large performance delta between cars Auto Shifting on the FE Gen 3 will not shift out of neutral

F1_1988_Historic_Edition CARS by oliver_ray This mod is the historical update of the legendary 1988 cars from carrera4, all credits to him first! I consider as a priviledge to make this old mod the fresh look and justice he deserves. Anyway, Doddynco and i, we work together to create an Historic version with alot of new features. (see each mod descriptions of the collection. About my work for this mod : - All new pbr textures - Rework of physics (The spin problem is corrected, but still you have to use "Heel and toe technique" to avoid some torque effect as it was with those big powered engines. ) - Tyres rework and performances balanced for great ai competition at any difficulty levels. - Some sound bug corrections - Talent file for all drivers to match real balance Steam
