Reiza Studios have deployed a small hotfix update to their Automobilista title addressing a number of minor issues revealed since the game update to build 1.2.0 at the end of December.
The new hotfix patch delivers several fixes to some audio issued experience by a number of users since the previous update, as well as a number of more minor amendments and adjustments to the core game. It is particularly nice to see the studio have now split the Rallycross Lancer and new F-Dirt machines for VX classifications as well as developing a new tyre model and community driver names added to the AI for these cars.
The full build 1.2.1 Hotfix Changelog can be read below:
- Fixed various sound effect issues introduced in last build & fine tuned volume balancing of several effects in various cars
- Development of fog in shaders - fog density and distance now varies based on if user is looking at the sun or not
- Adjusted surface properties for all dirt tracks to minimize issues with FFB rattling
- Goiania: Fixed Short FTruck crash; minor texture updates
- Cadwell Park: Fixed terrain issue in upper park
- Removed exhaust smoke entries from FC Truck which had been accidentaly left in (will be added back when effects are finalized)
- Combined all F-Truck into the same class for VX classifications & split F-Dirt from Lancer X for the same purpose
- Karts: Added auto-clutch for direct drive karts; Adjusted tire slip curves; Callibrated AI for all kart series for better performance & hopefully fixed issue with karts occasionally tumbling over curbs
- Ultima GTR: Revised undertray aero for all versions & minor tire tweaks
- F-3: Minor tire adjustments
- F-Dirt: Revised tire model; Added community drivers; Fixed TV cameras
