UPDATE on my problem with the very slow UI:

Seems like its only the graphical part of it that is slow, i have actually pressed the buttons before they have showed up. The cursor changes over the supposed buttons as usual even though the menu background havent changed yet. Also sliders (weather and so on) and buttons for example vehicle color change happens instantly but the visual changes in the menu doesnt happen until a few seconds later. No problem at all in World Editor btw. Tried vsync fix, blackscreen fix, clean install, no mods and so on.

 

What is your GPU and GPU driver version? Also Win10 game mode disabled?

Also is this right at starting the game or after switching maps?

Only way I can make slow UI happening is to run time trials, go to main menu, then gridmap, switch car hit ctrl+w and hover over tuning page sliders, then slowdown appears. But I'm running win8.1 so there can be difference with more recent windows.

 

I think I have the same problem, like sometimes the tachometer is late and i have to pause so the tachomter catch up.
Do I have to disable game mode on my W10 ?

 

Its a GeForce GTX 1050 Ti OC 4GB, latest drivers.
Geforce WIn10 game mode disabled afaik, not obvious how to do it in the latest Win10 but i think i manged to do it.
It doesnt happen until i open a map, before i open a map its all good.
If i let the computer idle for a while it can disappear (or at random vehicle change) but as soon as i start driving or go into a menu it gradually gets worse (as long as im in a map). Tbh i think it got better AFTER switching a map. I can say that smaller maps/less hard on the computer are better.

Sounds like one of my problems, ingame HUD lags just as much as the menus. Make sure its disabled, can apparently effect it.

 

Further sitrep: with at least the same settings I was using before the update (pretty high TBH), Italy's framerate has improved just like everything else I've tried... maybe?

I haven't tried WCA.

I'm keeping my mods disabled for now as you never know what they might screw up with all the model tweaks and flapdoodle. I do know that a mod which adds parts and configs for the Sunburst causes all glass surfaces on official configs to show up with the dreaded orange "NO MATERIAL" error (while retaining some transparency), but I don't know which one because I have so many different config packs that I usually don't even know which config came from which mod anymore (this is probably why DuneWulff uses either JRI or custom showrooms for his thumbnails).

This is the other reason I keep wanting to get into modding... to try to create some kind of unified sensical/lore-friendly configuration pack so people don't have to mess around with 5 different overlapping packs and never know what car is from where.

I have finally downloaded Ytrewq's Oldburst mod bringing my total mods downloaded to 145; if Sunburst-affecting config packs don't get updated it might be interesting to know how to port them to the Oldburst instead, for reference purposes.

 

Remmeberberebbrbed another one; Covet Track version has a bus style steering wheel tilt to it

 

I've been having the exact same problem! Only on Italy though.

 

esbr still delivers violent starts even when you use like 10% throttle, yes it is only briefly, but still it is there, there should be a torque limit inplace, as i wouldn't like to drive the thing in real life since it really springs forward

 

The 6.0 diesel in the Roamer has a stumble/hesitation in the sound between 1900-2100 RPM with a manual transmission. Sounds like a misfire or something. May be related to the sound sample for that rev range. Also it seems to rev really fast with no load even with a heavy flywheel.

 

I just read the devblog and I just wanted to say to all the developers that you guys have done a great job and put in a lot of hard work over the last week

It seems you have resolved almost every issue that has been reported which is really awesome to see!

Plus it's a cool feeling to have the bugs I reported mentioned to be fixed in the devblog, at least I feel I am contributing in some way

 

Just curious, what does the "disable rich presence" option do in the UI options?

 

Seconded. Impressive list of changes and improvements, in a very short timeframe, no less!

Thank you!

 

Rich presence shows in Steam which car and map you play, disabling that prevents steam showing such information.

Could it be made so when you switch to the diesel engine in the D-Series etc. the fuel tank also switches automatically to diesel? Right now you have to do it yourself


The other thing is that you can have both spare wheels equipped on the Hopper... Which makes them both fall off

 

If i crash with etk800 with engine failure, the icon in the dashboard still there even if i reload the car

 

Both the front disc brakes and rear drum brakes seem to be clipping through the 14x6 classic steel wheels on the Barstow. This happens on all the Barstow configs that use these wheels.

 

I'm actually getting Renault vibes from the yellow/black colour scheme and the front fascia, what with the line between the headlights and what I believe to be checkerboard patterns between the bumper vents.

 

I noticed on Italy I was driving around the walls of a coastal castle and there's a weird invisible wall. I think it was near Norte? I'm not 100% on the map locations. There's clear space to squeeze through but it hits an invisible wall and breaks the steering.
