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.
