0.17 Discussion thread

I'm on vacation, so I can't test the update first-hand... but, judging by the exciting devblog, it seems like an excellent update, full of awesome new features an quite a few surprises, too...

Thank you. That's all I can say right now.

 

OH MY GOD
YES

 

Sorry for being petty, but is there any progress on the issue of Humble Bundle acting up? The suspense is killing me.

Never mind, we're all good! Update's out.

 

i hate to be the ytrewq of this update, but did the miramar realy need to be made 2~3cm shorter?

 

there is a hole in WCUSA

traffic have way too much awareness. i think awareness should be adjustable and disableable. now you can't have fun putting some AI on a track with cross roads, like figure-8, and watch them crashing into each other. also if two cars will facing to each other on one road path - AI will stuck and not moving at all, waiting other AI free the road


also it would be nice to adjust default Risk parameter

and AI now is less likely to use brakes. for example with Risk - 1 now they miss corners that they were drive using same line no matter what speed they approach to the corner in previous version

talking about figure 8 track. there is new one on Hirochi raceway map and it's useless for AI driving, cos they see intersection and they make turns on them.

 

My bluebuck's default horn doesn't make any sound (mods disabled and the rest of the cars are ok)

 

Same here. Seems the lowrider bindings could be conflicting, as both are bound to H.

 

I don't know if it's a bug or is just my brain, but while revving, the engine sounds increase/decrease in steps, like if the sound samples are not merged correctly. It's hard to explain and even harder using a language I don't speak, so here is a video. I hope you can hear it too:

Also, is it me or the sounds are a little bit muffled? Like the 0.11.0 update bug.

 

when disabling the AI throtle and steering remains unchanged and the car continues to drive until you press throttle and steer

 

It's not just me
Reinstalling the game did not help

 

Coming home from a boring day of school, reading that a new update has been released, especially for the weekend now? You guys rock!

 

yay new, update, need for my dad to get home though

 

I noticed that the Firwood Cafe has a LOT of locations- there's like two or three on every block.

 

Large invisible hitbox on some trees on East Coast USA.

 

I'm absolutely loving this new update. The redone maps are really good. I do have one complaint though. On ECUSA, the off road trail that goes along the side of the lake near the town, is way too mild now. The steep climb up to the fire station is better than it used to be, but I'm not a fan of the rest of it. It's just mainly a dirt trail now, when it used to be a challenging rock crawling section. The same goes with the other major off road trail along the coast, most of it is way better than it used to be, but I feel there needs to be more rock sections. Plus, the trees that are in the middle of the trail act weird. I just thought I'd mention this, off roading and rock crawling are one of my favorite things to do in this game.

 

Here is a little bug in the new 0.17 update, in west coast usa the grass seems to be grey as if the color map was never added, I have disabled all mods and that's it just reporting a little bug. I am in lowest quality setting if anybody was wondering.

Also love love love this new update with the traffic you done good. For some reason you guys were able to optimize it so I can have 4 cars with a steady fps in west coast and other maps which I normally got like 15 fPS dropping down to 8 and back up every 5 seconds with 1 car but now its so much more optimized thank you. Also sounds team did a good job on startup sounds and other sounds

 

(Safe mode enabled) I found a problem with the time trial ending screen. When I finished, it showed just normal, then I changed into freeroam Hirochi Raceway via the dashboard. I don't have a screenshot of this but the transition wasn't particularly pretty. Basically there was no loading screen, instead the time trial UI still showed. The map loaded normally though, and then, after about 2 minutes on Hirochi Raceway, the ending screen came back and can not be clicked away anymore.
I'll try replicating this issue after having verified the installation and cleared cache...

 

I've read it has already been noticed, the horn on the Bluebuck doesn't work as the "H" key is binded to the "Hop right" suspension function.

 

I love the dirt trails on ECUSA, thank you for them, I appreciate them a lot as an offroading fan

But one thing is that the AI can take those trails with normals cars as well, which results in some funny scenes, like cars falling off of cliffs
