F1 2012 Patch #2 available within the next 24 hours

F1 2012 The Game (Codemasters)
From codemasters website:

Further to our “Patch News” post the other day, we’re pleased to inform you that the second PC patch will be going live on Steam within the next 24 hours.

This update contains in excess of 200 fixes and improvements for F1 2012 including the following major updates:

  • Autosave bug – The issue some users were experiencing where saving during career play would stop functioning is now fixed
  • Players ranked 6 are now able to see online sessions hosted by other players
  • Car setups will no longer revert to the default settings if players quit back to the main menu from Parc Fermé
  • Time attack times no longer overwrite RaceNet event times
  • AI drivers now pit to change tyres at the correct time
  • Fixed an issue where players using voice communication might experience a crash when plugging in a mic
  • Fixed an issue where some players would experience a crash in Career tutorials after completing a Season Challenge
  • Players are no longer able to drive through barriers/environment after using a flashback in pits
  • Fuel consumption when using manual gears has now been brought in line with automatic gear usage
  • Camera angles when exiting the pit lane has been fixed
  • AI no longer pit after one lap when wet weather races have been restarted
  • Positioning of the top 4 ranked players on PC leaderboards has been corrected. Leaderboards will be reset later today in order to update player rankings. (Once players complete another online race they will be added back on to the leaderboard with all their stats intact)
  • Driver name plates can now be seen
  • Numerous graphical improvements made such as flicker on rain/ground textures, interface positioning and correction of some track surfaces that showed incorrect weather
  • Various fixes to cameras including the 3D effect and pit lane cameras
  • Numerous textual and localisation fixes included

New Known Issue
  • On certain hardware, when the player’s car goes into shadow the whole screen flickers. This can be worked around by setting Shadows to Low or Ultra Low in My F1 -> Graphics. This issue will be addressed in the next patch.
The fixes listed above and those specific to the Xbox 360 and PS3 versions of the game are also being tested and verified on those platforms. As these versions require additional submission and authorisation from both Microsoft and Sony the release date for these will follow a little later than the PC version.

We are working on other issues you have reported via the forums, Facebook and Twitter and are working to fix them as quickly as possible. In the meantime, please note that we are still collecting feedback via our Technical Assistance forums and do encourage you to post your issues there being sure to include as much information as possible.

Thanks for your continued feedback!

All clear, thanks for help!
 
i have downloaded the game for steam yesterday and after i have downloaded the game, i have closed steam and open it and all i have downloaded its 15.8mb and i verify game intergrity, i have game version

const char * version = "Master Universal.815819 25/09/2012 19:41 "; unsigned int versionNumber = 815819;

does i have the patch 2
 
You definately have the patch #2 as indicated by version number 815819.
Also if you right click on f1_2012.exe in the game directory you will see it is now version number 1.1.0.0

I have now got my Fanatec Porsche Wheel Turbo S working correctly with no strange bugs in selecting Fast Forward or Rewind and the upside down cam view is fixed along with stuttering and jumping after using replay/flashback.

FFB seems abit weaker but steering is better, somehow !
 
I'm a little confusion with these updates.

Samletigre, after download the game through Steam last night got only the15.8 mo patch that appears in the tab Steam.

And he got in :
\ Steam \ steamapps \ common \ f1 2012 \ game_version.txt
const char * version = "Master Universal.815819 25/09/2012 7:41 p.m."; unsigned int versionNumber = 815819;

and in the executable file: f1_2012.exe v.1.1.0.0



From my side, I made an update via Steam for my my DVD (pre-purchase) to 18 September.
It seems to me that there was only one update installed and after verification, I have this:

const char * version = "Master Universal.815819 25/09/2012 7:41 p.m."; unsigned int versionNumber = 815819;
and the executable file: f1_2012.exe v.1.1.0.0

DOes we have patch 2 or not?
