RaceRoom November 15 Update Changelog:

Game:
Added new content for upcoming releases and competitions.
Unified Experiences and moved some of the experience specific settings to R3E.
Added “Depth of Field” visual effect. Active in TV cameras, Hood camera, Action cameras and Free Camera. CTRL-M enables a simple UI to adjust the blurring effects and focus position.
Shared Memory API overhaul, added various additional data and potential for backward compatibility starting this patch.
Added support for SimXperience Accuforce steering wheel.
Extended freedom of movement for the freecam and added two modes for it: “Attached to the car position and its rotation” and “Attached to the car position only”. Pressing the key bound to free cam will cycle through the three modes.
When under a slow-down penalty, collisions with the car are disabled.
When under a slow-down penalty, the amount of speed the player is still allowed to carry has been increased, but keep in mind you will be giving back any time gained at a slower rate by driving faster.
Fixed an issue where the ghost car was producing audio while waiting for the player’s car at the S/F line.
Fixed so compact data display shows fuel in gallons if mph/imperial units are selected.
Fixed replays missing the first 60 seconds of a race by pausing replay recording during garage phase.
Re-enabled hud during garage phase while waiting on the grid.
Changed position bar so it doesn’t display information during garage phase.
Fixed the issue where you would get disqualified immediately after the lights in hillclimb tracks.
Fixed using arrow keys for increase/decrease in pit menu going through settings very fast.
Fixed a crash that was occurring when leaving a Hillclimb session after finishing a run.
Fixed rear lights flashing when pressing the headlights button
Ensured that certain reset commands are sent to DirectInput devices when effects are disabled.
Changed “off” steerForceVibe period to be 2000000.
Increased maximum execution time for all communications from 30 seconds to a minute or higher.
Disabled FFB when reaching the spring based lock if it’s active.
Cleaned up the ffb code a bit while fixing the above issue. Removed mimic code and made sure all ffb effects are turned off during AI control.
Fixed game crashing while navigating in the portal while in a competition session.
Fixed an issue with damage when downshifting without clutch.
Disabled foreground window lock when playing fullscreen.
Disabled game minimizing when losing focus.
Fixed game crashing/freezing when pressing pit request button while no audio device is connected.
Changed throttle pedal zero magnitude and vibe slope default values to 0.

Multiplayer:
Added 2 race format and reversed grids.
The net code is now IPv6 compatible.
Removed some unused functions from net code that were somehow triggering crashes for some players.
Potentially fixed an issue where cars not within Peer to Peer range would become invisible.
We now allow duplicate server names to avoid admins not being able to access their settings if a condition such as their IP changes. (Also means we no longer have to remove their names from the associated server list manually).
Added so the associated server list clears names that have been inactive for 30 days.
Removed the grid walk camera phase since it’s irrelevant with the introduction of garage phase.
Fixed issue with xinput controllers ending up in an unusable state after disconnect/reconnect/usb port switch etc.
Fixed issue with opponent cars briefly disappearing during starting light phase.

Sounds, Cameras, Physics, AI:
Significant AI logic improvements.
Added punctures to the tire model. Past the lowest possible wear value, tires have a chance to puncture.
It is now impossible to disable auto-clutch aid on sequential gearbox’d cars
DRS effects on the aerodynamics of the car have been reworked
DRS allowance is now 3 activations per lap with a gap detection of 1 second at the S/F line.
Push 2 Pass is now disabled in qualifying and competitions to comply with the changes made in 2016 to the Audi Sport TT Cup official rules and regulations.
Downshifting without clutch on a H-Pattern gearbox now properly damages the gearbox.
