All the GT Cars have been updated

The notice board on game launch is a nice touch for telling us about updates like this Thankyou ISI.

Notes for the 370Z say throttle blip on braking (presumably when down shifting) is a must.
My question is if rev matching is needed then clutch would have to be manual as well or blipping the throttle when in gear would not achieve the desired rev to match the lower gear.
Have I got this messed up or does the auto clutch feature some how look after this?

Some cars that don't automatically use auto blip and/or auto lift (even when auto clutch is enabled) can still be made to use auto blip and/or auto lift once auto clutch is enabled...

Enable auto clutch then try full throttle upshifts before getting close to the redline and see if it's auto-lifting. Then go in a high gear like 5th, and as you slown down, back it quickly to 4th, 3rd, 2nd. Is the weight transfer getting all messed about? Is the car jerking and jolting? Are the rear wheels spinning? Or is it just a nice blip with no drama, no weight transfer upsets, no jolts, no spinning rear tyres? If it's the former, then auto blip is stil disabled, and if it's the latter than auto blip is enabled.

NOTE: If enabling auto clutch still doesn't activate auto-lift and/or auto-blip, then you can edit you player.json file to activate either/both of them. Enabling them in your json file only activates when using auto-clutch, if auto-clutch is disabled then the core physice of the car take over, rather than what you specified in your json file.

Now the question is....if a car has auto-blip, auto-lift, or both built into it's physics (so that they are enabled even if auto-clutch is disabled) then will the characteristics of it's auto blip/lift be changed if you also enable auto-clutch while having auto blip/lift enabled in your json file)? Basically, does the json file auto blip/lift (when auto-clutch is enabled) change the blip/lift characteristics of a car thst already has auto blip/lift characteristics defined in it's physics?

For anyone who get the problem with missing engine sounds, it has to do with mixed versions of the cars.

I didn't have engine sound when I loaded up the 370z, and I noticed that both the new version plus the old version in the skin pack were on track.

Exited, uninstalled the old versions and the old skin packs. Loaded the new cars and viola: engine sound was back again. :)

Auto Clutch only helps with gear shifting without clutching.
While blipping and lift is throttle input and throttle offput during gear shifting

Tried the GT-R and 370z. Superb update. Sounds much better too. Night headlights are brighter now.
 
These feel great, especially love the Nissan GTR.

Interlagos with the URD EGT series and the Nissan GTR's are fun to race with 26 cars :)
 
I like that the old content finally gets some love, but there are still the same visual issues the community has pointed out a couple of times already.

The Nissan GT1 still has a lot of Z-fighting around the front lights, the dark patch on the front right fender which is in the template (not a material issue, but a template issue which is even used for the new skins), and the very ugly rear lights with those cardbox cutouts sticking out the rear lights when braking.

The Corvette has finally been fixed at the front, there where a few polys which had a material error or something. But now the brake lights (which look much better now up close) have a lot of Z-fighting when looking at them from a distance, it's flickering pretty bad.

Overall don't get me wrong here, I love that the physics and shaders got updated because these cars are actually quite amazing and fun to drive, but these issues are not that time consuming to fix, probably just have been overseen.
 
The 370z was a blast to drive before, and still is, very happy with the car, the GTR i find a massive improvement as now i am able to drive around Nordschelife without my rear randomly going loose in every second corner and i actually can drive on the cars limit and finish the lap, so very happy for that.. Thanks ISI
 
Massive improvement across all four cars, Really enjoyable update, I noticed the wipers work on the vette and gtr, maybe they did in the previous build ?? but its new to me, maybe a sign of rain on the windscreen soon !

Really nice to drive the vette. Good work work ISI
 
sweet update. Love the 2010 spec C6 engine. Baffled, it says the 3rd spring is detached on the C6 however it logs data?

Finally, what I've been hoping for, for months. The GT-R feels like a real car and I can now push without the rear randomly losing all grip and feeling.
 
Some negatives to follow on from my positive note:

There is still mass overexposure within the cockpit view (C6 test at Indy). Sorry however this has been mentioned heavily around here from day one of the GT release. Highlights especially the clouds are blown out and fair bit different between the cockpit & external cameras. My screen is setup for photo editing which pro calibrated with low contrast & brightness. Car parts also still missing when tabbing backwards and forth between windows (B798 64b).

I noticed this as well.

I don't know how much attention the visual side got beyond shaders, but you're right. I imagine it'd be quite a hassle to rework some shaping (i.e. the rear transition into the doors of the 370z is messy) and increase texture resolution.
 
@Coanda

IPS fully calibrated monitor here as well. Confirmed sky overexposure within the cockpit view. Try Mores with the Nissans.

Have you tried with HDR off, seems a lot better with this build and increases framerate
 
Why is the steering lock from the camaro down to 19 max from 25 ???? but the overall degree is still 612.......
