Did a fresh install of b156, found that there's no more visible tyre wear (open wheel cars). It was a nice addition with b146, but now disappeared for me. Has it something to do with graphic settings? I set driver car to full and all other things to low (as before). I did not try to max out special fx indeed... I miss it because it was really well done: flatspots, wear on the inside of tyre, do a donut and see rear tyres go black... I want it back! BTW, with b156 I finally get cars with digital dash (megane, F2, corvette...) fully working (with temps, laps, gear indicators...). Before I was only getting the revmeter rendered.
