Sector3 Studios Release RaceRoom Hotfix

Paul Jeffrey · Jun 2, 2017

The promised hotfix update has been released to Steam for RaceRoom Racing Experience today.

With the big May update deployed yesterday the Swedish development studio confirmed a number of minor issues remained with the simulation, due to be patched out of the game as early as the following day.

True to their word, Sector3 have just made live a small hotfix patch to the simulation that addresses the acknowledged issues and also adds a couple of additional amendments, not least of which is the wheel range support for the recently introduced Fanatec Clubsport Wheel version 2.5.

You can check out the hotfix patch notes below:

Added CSW 2.5 wheel range support.
Added the new flag rule settings to Multiplayer.
Fixed the rendering issue of curbs in Hockenheimring.
Fixed ordering issue in MP results in championships.
Separated and added division dropdown in mp results. (Will be updated shortly)
Fixed time left showing blank in MP browser for servers with players.
Fixed data display issue on Aquila and Audi R18 where N was showing as 0 in the gear indicator.
Fixed reflection calculations from the data display shaders.

In additional RaceRoom news, to support the release of the new Falkenberg track the developers have produced this nice introductory trailer, presenting one of the more enjoyable of the new circuits added to the simulation:

Located near the coast, Falkenberg is a favorite with the spectators. It is Sweden's fastest track showcasing a layout that is quite different from other Scandinavian tracks. The main straight ends in a tight chicane, but after that long sweeping high speed corners link together to one long series of direction changes through the entire lap. This one demands a well balanced car and a driver with good understanding of weight transfer and racing lines.

RaceRoom Racing Experience is available for PC via Steam now.

This is literally all I've ever wanted in the entire world....

Ok, maybe that's a little bit of an exaggeration, but boy have we been looking forward to having this option. Huge for our multiclass races, but also great for everything else seeing as the yellow flag logic for "non-overtaking" situations still needs work.
