A new update for RaceRoom Racing Experience has been deployed to the simulation.
Following the large December update released back on December 11th last year, Sector3 Studios have continued to work on some of the issues that have cropped up within the title since then, putting together this reasonably sizeable new build that addresses many of the outstanding problems, whilst also offering new physics passes and a few key changes for a number of cars and series within the simulation.
RaceRoom Racing Experience Update Notes
Announcement:
In this update, we had to heavily modify the looks of some fantasy liveries that had Red Bull sponsoring since their original release. The Red Bull brand guidelines now enforce the brand to only be used as replica's of existing cars and liveries, never on fantasy cars. As some of the liveries were sold, we will be looking into refunding the 29 vRP's to your in-game wallets in the coming days.
The liveries affected are:
- Formula Raceroom 2 #1
- Formula Raceroom 2 #2
- Formula Raceroom 3 #2
- Formula RaceRoom Junior #18
- Pagani Zonda R #73
- Porsche 911 GT3 Cup #11
- RaceRoom Canhard R51 #15
RaceRoom Racing Experience is available now, exclusively for PC.
