rFactor2 Build 198 Released

[KernigWRC]

Are you sure, you don't have steering help enabled?

I have 6 broken Fanatecs wheels gatherign dust in my basement... All replacement units, and now I'm back to a G27
Granted they were the first GT3RS wheels, and after 3 of those I tried 2 Turbo wheels, but all eventually broke down in some way.
Some lost center, some just died midrace, 1's belt or gears came lose inside and it was like there were rocks in there, ...

 

[Antaeus]

someone tell somewhere something about grey textures? it will be fix or we could make textures with new lighting?

 

[f1ligue]

Question for ISI.

In the next BUILD, a return to normal is scheduled for textures or will you touch it mandatory materials or our alpha textures?

thank you

Any idea when we can expect a new Build / update?

Do you need new build for any specific reason?

198 was released just 2 weeks ago.

Me too

Performance Optimisations becoming very important to me after taking a bit if an fps hit on last build, I've shelved rf2 for now but will try it again after next update

I did the update and all seemed ok, perhaps a bit of an fps hit. Decided to do a clean install from the Lite Installer and had the same issue mentioned already somewhere where my packages were all in place without me copying them in. Mod Manager wouldn't see them until I pointed it at the folder again. I had files all over the place. individual shaders and nothing else in the Log folder, 2 userdata folders etc.

Thorough clean and reinstall (including plr and controller.ini) seemed to fix everything and now I think I generally have improved framerates. I've heard the spotter (quietly) for the first time, the ffb no longer feels like you're driving a steering setup that has no 'give' at all. The wheel seems to feel a little better at centre but have had to increase the in game strength with most cars. All in all I quite like it so far.
