GT5 Update 2.09

[Stuart Pocock]

It's that time again guys, PD have released a new update and here is what has changed:

- The [Tyre/Fuel Depletion] settings under [Event Settings] of the Open Lobby can now be adjusted to four levels: "None", "Normal", "Fast", and "Very Fast".

- The 3D display view has been improved.

- The tyre depletion rate has been now balanced as it varied too greatly in certain circumstances depending on the vehicle.

- The Drift Trials scoring method has been changed to prevent cheating.

- The maximum RPM of the Honda weider HSV-010 (SUPER GT) '11 has been changed to 10300rpm. The engine sound has also been improved.


Correction of known issues
- Fixed an issue where opponent cars were hitting the pit entrance wall when pitting in at the Twin Ring Motegi Road Course East.
- Fixed an issue where fuel was not being consumed when entering an endurance race with a Prius, or when [Tyre/Fuel Depletion] was enabled in the Open Lobby. Affected cars: Toyota Prius G '02, Toyota Prius G '09, Toyota Prius G Touring Selection '03, Toyota Prius Touring Car.
- Fixed an issue where the online control characteristics differed from the offline ones.

What are your opinions on this update?

The only thing I care about is Tyre/Fuel Depletion Settings.

Very useful. Can add new elements to races.

agreed, the addition to the tyre/fuel depletion will add new elements to races, I've testing the settings online by doing burnouts, drifting and donuts

Every single time they come out with an update like they totally screwed up the downforce on the cars now and you have to redo all your setups. I don't even bother logging in anymore. They keep messing with things that don't need altering

Ive found that the down force is more realistic recently

since this update Ive noticed that my road and grass textures are blurry about 2 feet from the car view.they are not as crisp as they were before. Did I change something by mistake ? It looks like crap now.
