    I just checked, because I hardly pay attention to the credits. I think my name is there. :eek:
    Unless someone elses name is also Stefan D. How on earth did it get in there?

    It's a cool feature. They must have taken the name you registered with and somehow planted it there. I bet yours is also under the "Community starts with" label?

    Yes, it has been there since the first build. Nothing new. :)

    The skip Regional is showing National tyres on track. They are the Regionals though, judging by performance.

    Regarding the <escape> key generally: it's always been that if you hold the key too long on track or press it a second time when in the race screen, then there's no replay any more - the car appears in the garage the whole time until you go on track again.

    Nice one ISI!

    I took the 60's F2 out on Monaco and had a few fps more (2 to 5) but saw the road look nice; potholes, marbles and so on.
    Also the colors around the track looked different.
    But what I missed, was the reflection in the small window of the car and as I looked on; some more reflections were gone too.
    I thought HDR was off, but it was on, reflections too.

    Is that normal or do I have a "problem"?

    Tested Corvette in Sebring... I can feel the tyres little better now and tyre degradation was there. Did some donuts and tyre wear went from 90% to 20% (rear tyres of course) within 20 donuts and after that it was impossible not to spin all the time. Good job. FPS seems to be little lower now which is a shame but otherwise good job.

    The FISI seem to have a new lease of life with this new update. I just took the car around Spa for a qualifying-style run on the soft tires and it was a blast. It seems to be much gripper at low speeds now.

    One thing missing off release notes is that you have now included Race Settings tab in Multiplayer :) Much better to see what the server settings are. Thanks.

    Should I make a new install from 0, or just update from v134? I mean I don´t want to use one of my activation codes. (but not sure if I need to re-activate the game)

    Thanks for the update. ;)

    I'v noticed that the players that have a custom skin applyed have a box next to ther name in the drivers list , after messing around on my server and a few others I think it works like this , if the server and client have the skin trasnsfer inabled the players with custom skins box's will go from grey to green , if server has skin transfer OFF the box turnes black .. I'm only guessing here as I cant find anything in the realese notes about how it works .. I tested with my server inabled and disabled , I had the black box when dissabled and green box when inabled .. seems to be greyish while its down/uploading .. ?? Now on this last test where i noticed the box turn green i havent had anyone join to see if they can see my skin yet but help is on the way .. i belive this is working tho ..lol ..again im guessing ,Please ISI chime in if you can here .. Thanks !!

    Excellent new build. Love the new tyres tweak and the feel even more now in the Corvette. Bugs so far:
    1. Replay in UI is wrong aspect ratio still
    2. Mirrors low res
    3. Can't think of anything else :)

    Thanks for the tip. I was doing that right now.

    Also I am going to install it in other folder to see if installing from scratch gives me more performance than updating as I always do.

    Basically I´m going to have 2 rFactor 2´s installed. I´ll be posting here if I gain more performance or not.
