Update Speculation thread

Here you go.

 

Excuse me but you're too far away from the car to get a good look at the carbon fiber. You need to get up close and personal to get a good picture of the carbon fiber.

 

It's also colorable, under the second paint slot I think

 

Needs LOD applied. The packed pattern gives a bad crosshatching effect on most screens.

 

Like mine.

 

--- Post updated ---

yeah, can confirm

 

It's funny to see nobody mentioning what the actual new livery is based on & the legend himself who
made it so incredibly famous.

 

No

 

they're not even close

 

Some people just have no sense of humor.
@ITHEPUNISHER, your jokes don’t seem to go over well with the Update Speculation crowd. I don’t know why.

 

What do you mean about Grand Marshal? Btw, I agree with u, but u forgot Pessima Mk1!

 

I meant 'Part Two'.

 

I-series remaster when?

 

Hopper remaster please

 

That's... not how LOD works

 

Yes it does. It's called mipmaps, they're basically LOD for textures.

Its mainly for avoiding artifacts from squeezing high res textures into smaller res area in the viewport and also for helping performance.

 

Anyone knows the difference between qa_stable and qa_latest ?

 

qa_latest are automatically generated builds which can be ignored by us players, because the only thing they mean is that the development cycle is still going. It can contain any number of broken things and might not even be playable (this part is a speculation from me based on my QA experience). qa_stable is a pre-release build in which there are (supposed to be) no release-blocking bugs and which is used for the final inspection before publishing the update. This one is important because it means the update is super close.

 

Thanks.

Because I saw the qa_stable being updated since 3 days at the time I write.
Maybe 0.32.2 bugs fixing patch upcoming.

 

An idea came to me this morning. When you do replace a part, it reset the whole vehicle. This may be inconvenient if you want to maintain the current level of wear & tear, or fuel usage. Could the following process be assessed:

* user applies part change
* game saves current wear-state of vehicle
* part change applied
* vehicle is reset (as now)
* previous state is then reloaded, overwriting the reset, maintaining previous wear.

Thoughts/queries/ponderings welcome.
