CHANGE LOG:

Updater

- The iRacing updater will no longer ask if you want to create a desktop shortcut if it already exists.

Race Sessions

- Race Sessions can now use up to six different vehicles in the same event.

Garage

- Bar end displacement has been adjusted for some cars in the Garage UI.

Dynamic Track

- The visuals for marbles have been improved.

- Fixed an issue whereby a Lone Qualifying session would trigger an error that made some parts of the track on a client unable to send all updates to the server in any sessions which followed, such as an attached race.

Rendering

- The number of fixed cubemaps rendered per frame has been reset to 0.

- - All tracks now have at least one fixed cubemap so the rendering cost per frame will be high. Be sure your system can handle this option.

- The option, "forceCrowdVisible" has been added to the [Graphics] section of the "app.ini" file.

- - forceCrowdVisible = 0 (Default iRacing.com crowd behavior)

- - forceCrowdVisible = 1 (The grandstands are always full, regardless of event type)

Camera

- Fixed a bug that accidentally allowed the track camera option "Limited Acquire" to be toggled on for on-car and driving cameras.

Audio

- New Rumble Strip tire sounds have been created for saw tooth, ramped slabbed, and fine tooth curbs for all vehicles.

- A new sound event script system has been implemented that allows for more customization of sounds. This is the new base for all event driven sounds in the SIM, and will allow us to add in environmental sounds in the future, including linking sounds directly to animations.

- Re-tuned engine and transmission sound parameters for drivetrain loads for all cars. This gives a more dynamic sound with throttle changes as you modulate the delivery of power. Even slight throttle movements will yield more informative sonic responses.

- Tuned the rumblestrip and grass rolling volumes for quieter vehicles. Tire surface sounds have also been adjusted and are likely a little on the loud side. This is to cater for users with speaker combinations and those soundcards that play them quiet. Reduce the tire volume slider to taste. The cars affected include the following:

- - Ford Falcon FG V8

- - Ford Mustang FR500S

- - Formula Renault 2.0

- - Global Mazda MX-5 Cup

- - Holden Commodore VF V8

- - HPD ARX-01c

- - Kia Optima

- - Legends Ford '34 Coupe

- - Legends Ford '34 Coupe Dirt

- - Lotus 49

- - Lotus 79

- - Mazda MX-5 Cup circa 2015

- - Mazda MX-5 Roadster circa 2015

- - McLaren MP4-12C GT3

- - Pontiac Solstice

- - Pro Mazda

- - Ruf RT 12R

- - Ruf RT 12R Track

- - SCCA Spec Racer Ford

- - Skip Barber Formula 2000

- - V8 Supercar Ford Falcon circa 2012

- - VW Jetta TDI Cup

- Fixed a bug in the particle sounds and visor dirt sounds that could cause them to be too quiet for some cars.

Pace Car

- The pace car's line for entering and exiting its pit stall has been improved.

Dirt

- Dirt Track Initialization v2.0

- - The creation of initial track state for dirt ovals has fundamentally changed. We now initialize dirt tracks using data gathered from sessions, rather than an algorithm that simulates track activity. This takes advantage of feedback we have received: our dirt tracks progress realistically when run in by drivers turning laps. Variance is achieved by using multiple starting states and wear histories, created by different sets of drivers and cars, to generate the final track state. This means that even for the same initial usage value, the resulting track may not always be the same!

- - In addition, the default starting usage percentage for dirt oval sessions is now adjusted based on the types of cars in the sessions. Essentially, cars that would normally run earlier at a race weekend and/or are aimed at beginners or rookie drivers will see tackier tracks on average. As drivers move up in car class, they are also considered to be racing later in the event and will typically experience a more worn-out track. Overall, the tracks for race sessions for the upper-end Dirt Sprint Cars and Dirt Late Models will be noticeably slicker than before, but rookies running the Street Stock will still have mostly tacky conditions.

- Fixed an issue where some dirt areas along walls could look patchy.

Replay

- Several small replay processing and playback enhancements to increase the accuracy of the dynamic track in a replay.

- When playing a replay, the play speed will remain unchanged when playing a frame where the player steps into the car, or is the start of a new session. Previously this would trigger an event that would drop the replay out of fast-forward and into regular play speed.

Paint Kit

- Four new sponsors have been added.

Chat

- Fixed a bug that caused the right-click menu to not work on small chat window.

Virtual Reality

- Fixed an issue causing a white flash when transitioning out of a session.

Telemetry

- New irsdk variable "CarLeftRight" that outputs a irsdk_CarLeftRight enum indicating if a car is on your left or right. This can be used to replicate our high/low spotter calls.

- New irsdk Session String parameter WeekendInfo:TrackDirection: that indicates if the track is a left or right (or neutral) handed track. Use this to detect that you are at a reversed oval so you can properly call high when the car is on your left rather than right side.

- Fixed the output of car setup to telemetry to not strip numbers from the key names.

New iRacing UI Preview

- UI Scale: You can scale the entire UI up to 200%.

- You are now able to "Star" cars, tracks, Series, and Time Attack Competitions.

- Cart: You can add cars and tracks to a new shopping cart located in the top right corner. Clicking "continue" lets you check out at the Classic Membersite.

- A host of Series Racing upgrades, including:

- - Sessions have been cleaned up and split into tabs: Race, Qualify, Open Practice, Time Trial.

- - Open Practice sessions now show the server location and country flag.

- - Time Trials will allow you to join the single next available time trial.

- - New "Trending" label appears based on the total racers participating in a series.

- - New "Hot" label appears when a session has at least 10 registered drivers.

- Time Attack now includes both Fixed Setup and Adjustable Setup competitions.

- When you try to Register for a Series with multiple cars or classes without first selecting a car, the UI should force you to download the content first.

- - This should mostly eliminate the "Error 23" that has been showing up.

Diskussion zum Artikel DGFX Herbst Season steht in den Startlöchern:

Zitat

Nach der packenden Frühjahres Season mit einem 2. Platz in der GTC Klasse haben wir uns entschieden uns natürlich für die Herbst Season anzumelden. Diesen Herbst geht es für uns einmal um den Globus.
Wir starten im schönen Flordia auf dem Sebring International Raceway, packen danach unsere Autos auf die Fähre und legen in England und machen uns auf den Weg nach Silverstonen, anschließend verpacken wieder unsere Autos und machen uns einmal um die ganze Welt auf den Weg nach Australien,…

Nie behauptet, aber das es von Jahr zu Jahr immer mehr Bugs am release werden ist schon sehr fragwürdig

Man man man, ich überlege ja echt nicht bei dem World Fastest Gamers Schrott mit zu machen und dann im Anschluss hier vllt mal mitzufahren, aber wenn ich höre das da wieder nur Bugs auftauchen und dies und das nicht geht das schreckt das ja imemr mehr ab

Diskussion zum Artikel SimRC am Ende der Sommerpause:

Zitat

Die Silly Season neigt sich dem Ende zu und unser rasender Reporter Gianni resümiert die letzten Monate noch einmal und blickt auf die nächsten Herausforderungen, kommende Rennen und auf die jüngsten Neuzugänge.

Sehe gerade ich komm da einfach mit den normalen Anmeldedaten dort rein und schreiben könnte ich auch Wenn es ist melde ich mich einfach und ihr könnt mir die Rechte einfach gebe ich mach auch keinen Schwachsinn

Ich hatte das früher auch immer hier gepostet, weil es ja hier heißt News Startseite

Als ich was als Artikel hinzufügen machen wollte, musste ich mir irgendwie einloggen und ich dachte da braucht man die Rechte von euch Forum Göttern deswegen hab ich das gleich gelassen

Wenn du das irgenwie verschieben kannst dann mach das ruhig Chaoz, oder der Dustin löscht den Post einfach und hat ihn dann an die richtige Stelle nochmal hin

Langsam aber sicher geht die Sommerpause dem Ende hin, vieles ist in der Zwischenzeit abseits sowie auf der Strecke passiert. Wir durften neue Gesichter begrüßen, Erfolge feiern, neue Werksautos entgegennehmen und uns intensiv auf die kommenden Aufgaben und Prüfungen vorbereiten aber alles nach der Reihe.

Fangen wir mit dem Beginn des Sommerlochs an, am 23.3 gingen nach 372 Runden für SimRC Iris und 370 Runden SimRC Crimson die 24 Stunden von Le Mans sowie Die Neo Endurance Series Season 3 zu Ende. Das Iris Team um Sven Deml, Leonardo Corti, Stefan Seitwager und Evan Merill konnten sich Platz 2 und das Schwester Team um Dustin Hickmann, Jürgen Frank, Tim Berti und Gianni Vecchio Platz 4 sichern. Zum Ende der Season stand ein starker zweiter Platz und ein guter sechster Platz zu buche was bedeutet, dass beide Teams einen sicheren Platz in der kommenden Season besitzen. Das Ende der NEO Season bedeutete zugleich den Start in die "Sommerpause".

Für die DGFX Teams ging es jedoch noch einen ganzen Monat rund bis zum 28. April. Da standen die 3 Stunden von Canada an, SimRC Strawberry im Cup Porsche kämpften bis zum Schluss um den Gesamtsieg. SimRC Melon konnten ihr bestes Saisonergebnis heimfahren mit einem starken dritten Platz. Die beiden Piloten Lukas Dolzer und Patrick Jung angeführt von Chef Stratege Gianni Vecchio bewegten den Cup Porsche wie auf Schienen durch den tükischen Canadian Tire Motorsports Park, während SimRC Strawberry leider ausfiel.

Ein paar Wochen später entschlossen sich Dustin HIckmann, Tobias Luigart, Rene Osterkamp und Jürgen Frank todesmütig die Herausforderung der 24 Stunden durch die Grüne Hölle entgegen zu treten. Die 4 tapferen Porsche Fahrer lieferten den Porsche nach 24 Stunden fabrikneu ab und das auf Platz 1 nicht nur in der eigenen Klasse sondern Platz 1 auf dem Gesamt Klassement, man hat jeden GT3 taktisch überholt und konnte sich völlig überraschend die Krone aufsetzen.

Nachdem letztes Jahr von iRacing der Ferrari 488 GTE angekündigt wurde, wurden wir direkt nochmal überrascht. Zusammen mit dem Ferrari wurde glatt der Ford GT 2017 veröffentlicht, eine Woche vor den 24 Stunden von Le Mans, diese waren aus technischen Gründen kein Großer Erfolg. Jedoch entschloss man sich direkt auf den Ferrari und sofort wurden etliche Testkilometer abgespult und an Setups gearbeitet. Aktuell können wir uns mit Sicherheit zu den Top 5 GTE Teams zählen die aktuell in iRacing unterwegs sind und das möchten und müssen wir beweisen in den kommenden Monaten wenn es wieder zur Sache geht in den einzelnen Meisterschaften.

Zu guter Letzt kommen wir noch zu den neuen Gesichtern. Natürlich blieben die Top Scouts Christoph Weitz und Dustin Hickmann nicht auf der faulen Haut liegen. Es wurden zwei Fahrer verpflichtet die beiden nicht nur den gleichen Vornamen besitzen, beiden fügen sich sehr gut ins Team ein. Einer wurde aufgrund von starken Leistungen von vielen Teams beobachtet und es gab auch Angebote von vielen Seiten, jedoch entschied er sich zu SimRC zu stoßen und kann sich aktuell zu den besten Fahrern im Ferrari 488 GTE zählen.

Es handelt sich um keinen geringeren als Patrick Heinrich: "Ich bin glücklich die richtige Entscheidung getroffen zu haben und mich SimRC angeschlossen zu haben, ich hoffe sehr in den kommenden Rennen die erhofften Ergebnisse rauszufahren und SimRC weiter beim wachsen zu helfen."
"Wir sind froh das wir Patrick vielen Teams vor der Nase wegschnappen konnten, Fahrer mit dieser Pace und Konstanz findet man sehr selten deswegen sind wir sehr zuversichtlich was die Zusammenarbeit mit Patrick angeht." so die beiden Teamchefs Dustin und Christoph

Der zweite fiel durch starke Leistungen auf, er schlug teilweise Fahrer die normalerweise immer um die Spitze mitfahren als wäre es nichts. Sehr fruh begannen die Gespräche zwischen beiden Parteien und am Ende konnten wir glücklicherweise unseren zweiten Fahrer für uns gewinnen der eine flexible Bereicherung fürs Team darstellt. Deswegen dürfen wir einen weiteren Neuzugang, der unsere Österreich Fraktion verstärken wird, vorstellen.

Der gute Mann heißt Patrick Christoph Moser: "Es ist eine unglaubliche Gelegenheit für SimRC fahren zu dürfen. Ich freue mich darauf das Team, auf und abseits der Strecke, unterstützen zu können!"
Dustin und Christoph: "Patrick ist uns natürlich sofort mit seinen überragenden Leistungen in der IMSA aufgefallen, wir haben intern nicht lange fackeln lassen und haben direkt den Kontakt gesucht. Nach kurzen Verhandlungen konnten wir Patrick als unseren neuen Fahrer vorstellen und haben somit einen Neuzugang für unsere Porsche und Ferrari Teams."

Nach diesem Rückblick und Informationen darf man gespannt sein wie sich die nächsten Wochen gestalten, es gibt natürlich viel zu tun da die NEO bald beginnt und die DGFX in 9 Tagen ihren Season Opener hat. Deswegen nun mit einem alt bekannten Abschlussspruch, Keep Racing!

Hier der nächste WR

Diesmal in Interlagos und natürlich wieder im Ferrari

(ist in 15 min online)

In ner GT Kiste musste so über die Curbs räubern, der Teil der Strecke war sogar langsamer als meine Optimal Zeit, hätte ich die Schikane getroffen wäre es ne 28,9 oder so noch geworden

Hier ist meine Weltrekord Runde aus Montreal

Ist dann zu sehen wenn die irgendwann mal hochgeladen ist

Wärste mal besser mit zur WEC gekommen

Der Luke und Chris waren auch wieder gut unterwegs

Nur noch ne Spedition finden die mir den Koffer da hochbringt

Wie gesagt hätte die ,124 damals gezählt als es das Update gab dann hätte man nicht zittern müssen
