Привет, гонщики, и добро пожаловать в лучший день месяца — день выпуска первого Q1 2023 года! Прекрасное время, чтобы стать поклонником rFactor 2, здесь мы можем насладиться плодами труда команды, культовой новой трассой, чудовищным автомобилем BTCC, и что самое главное, множеством улучшений, исправлений и дополнений.
Соревнуйтесь с контентом, которым вы не владеете!
Чтобы эта новая функция работала, игрокам необходимо будет загрузить контент на свой ПК, помните, что вы не сможете управлять автомобилями, если не приобретете их через магазин rFactor 2 (доступный либо через пользовательский интерфейс rF2 или в Steam). Самый простой способ узнать, что у вас есть, — это просмотреть список автомобилей и трасс в игре. Те предметы, которыми вы не владеете, будут выделены серым цветом, а кнопка, доступная для нажатия, приведет вас прямо на страницу магазина для этого предмета. Загружаемые элементы можно просмотреть и использовать в разделе управления контентом пользовательского интерфейса.
Зритель.
Пока у вас установлен контент, вы можете наблюдать за гонкой, даже если вы не владеете каким-либо используемым контентом.
Вождение.
Вы можете управлять только автомобилями, которыми владеете, и не можете пересаживаться на чужой автомобиль. Машины, против которых вы участвуете в гонках (ИИ или многопользовательская игра), должны быть установлены, но вам не обязательно владеть ими. Вы должны владеть трассой, на которой участвуете в гонках.
Симуляция покажет вам, какие машины у вас отсутствуют после присоединения к серверу, они будут выделены серым цветом.
Менеджеры серверов. Сгенерируйте ключи сервера, как обычно, чтобы вы могли загружать ненужный контент на сервер.

General
Track Limits: reduced sensitivity to switching paths, such as near the pit lane entrance, and reduced strict penalty points for an invalid pit lane to main path change from Drive Through to 1 point.
Vehicle option for brake repair in a pitstop
Added “+VR” command line option to launch the game using VR. Added new steam option when starting game.
Added “Steam Matchmaking Broadcast” option to Multiplayer.json. This will allow the server to be hidden from matchmaking. Current matchmaking status will be shown on the Dedicated Server UI.

Reintroduced adjustable steering rates
Added selection for gamepad steering filters
Made both steering filters adjustable independently
Added snappiness slider to steering rates configuration – 0% is original behaviour, higher % is more snappy without having to increase steering rates
Made new steering sensitivity filter more direct
Server keys are now machine independent and can be shared between any machines
Track Limits
Scale certain factors of scoring down when we go less than a third of the track width off track.
Fixed a rare possibility of cuts not being scored.
Added extra data to logging & ModDev Debug mode
Cinematics
Added soft blend when changing selected vehicle
Added ability to hold current camera
Added ability to pause car tracking. Pressing the SHIFT key whilst this is enabled will reset tracking to the closest point the tracking is paused at.
Added camera group tracking for cars traveling close together, by default in race sessions only.
Allow the previous laps S/F line camera to remain valid when using cycle method. This allows for different cameras over the start finish line.

Added acceleration and deceleration to Freelook for smoother movement.
Added the ability to load custom cameras from UserdataCameras
Added auto calculation of spectator camera directions to the nearest waypoint to the first activation location.
Photo Mode
Split out from Freelook camera adjustments (aperture, exposure, focus) options to a separate Photo Mode.

Electric Motor map
Added to onboard controls (not in gui yet)
Regeneration map
Added to onboard controls (not in gui yet)
Push to Pass map
Added to onboard controls (not in gui yet)
Plugin API updated to include physics output (also see plugin example):
Battery charge
torque
rpm
motor temperature
water temperature (if applicable)
motor state (inactive, propulsion, regenerate)
Updated p2p system with new options to accommodate btcc:
time limit per lap
minimum gear activation requirement
minimum time between activations
turn off when crossing start/finish
Fixed bug where SteeringInnerTable wasn’t always properly applied
Fixed bug with reading brake maps from hdv/engine files. It now reads definitions with less than 11 entries again.
Fixed visual steering lock mismatch at low speeds when using non-standard steering lock in the vehicle setup
Fixed temporary boost not taking into account session boost limit
Graphics
Improved visual progression of wet road with a more linear progression.
Added new IBL Water Shader which uses SSR for more accurate reflections.
Added motion blur.
Fixed various stutters with cloud movement in replays and online
Live TV Screens: Added option to disable, Fixed aspect ratio when running non 16:9 resolutions, Improved shader visually.
Forced use of high power GPU on devices with multiple GPUs (i.e. Laptops).
Tweaked PostFX profiles for more realistic depth of field on broadcast cameras
AI
Improved management of Driver fuel calculations, making sure that we only update when a fully valid lap has been completed.
Fixed error in default calculations which would mean with fuel scalars, AI would not add extra fuel to tank
Improved logic for cars leaving pits in practice and qualifying sessions. Encouraging AI to use up all laps, and making sure they attempt to set a lap time in short sessions.
Fix for AI being prevented from passing when pitting in on a race lap
Fix for AI running into the back of other vehicles
HUD
Cockpit Display now shows Brake Bias correctly as the bias to the front in whole percent.
UI
Fixed being able to set race laps to below 2 in single player session settings.
Fixed the singleplayer quick event page layout being broken sometimes on page load.
