Sector3 Studios have deployed a new update today for RaceRoom Racing Experience, including the release of the very impressive Anderstorp Raceway track...
Following on from a recent sizable update back on April 20th, Sector3 Studios have today once again released a new build for RaceRoom Racing Experience that addresses a number of minor issues with the simulation, most interestingly with further slight tweaks to the flag rule logic added as part of the new build. Now Sector3 have added some additional detection logic to various yellow flag scenarios within the game, hopefully allowing for a more suitable and consistent application of flag rules for a wider variety of racing situations.
However despite the build update, the biggest news from Sector3 is the much awaited deployment of the wonderfully recreated Anderstorp Circuit. Available in two separate layouts, both the Grand Prix and South Circuit versions of the track are available to purchase from the RaceRoom Store for £2.53.
The release of Anderstorp completes the release schedule for the three previously announced Scandinavian locations added to RaceRoom, however with a past history with the Scandinavian Touring Car Championship in the form of the two STCC racing games released under the SimBin banner, fans will no doubt be remaining hopeful that these are just the first of many new pieces of Scandinavian content coming to RaceRoom in the near future.
04/05/2017 Update:
Game:
- Fixed an issue where time allowed to give a position was showing 15 seconds instead of 30.
- Fixed an issue where players sometimes received a penalty while on grid at the start of MP race.
- Added a 2 second period during which the yellow flag causer still can be overtaken after he/she has fulfilled the criteria for not causing a yellow anymore.
- Increased the speed threshold needed to release a yellow flag.
- Added a setting “Stay in Practice Session if Empty” to turn on/off session freeze to dedi. If ON, the server will stay in practice session if it’s empty. If OFF the server will continue to qualifying even if it’s empty.
- Added a setting “Allow Players Join in Qualifying” to allow/disallow players join during Qualifying. If OFF players can’t join during Qualifying. If ON players can join during Qualifying.
- Mclaren 650s: Camera update following the steering wheel alignment fix.
- Suzuka: Fixed BMW procar going wide in 130R and fixed too harsh 130R cut rules
- McLaren 650s GT3: Fixed alignment of the steering wheel.
- Fixed some inconsistencies with competition starting and ending time being x hours off depending on the players local time difference to UTC.
