Version 1.6-Preview1 (Patreon)

Hello everyone,

Version 1.5 will be made available on OverTake shortly, which means you now get to try 1.6-Preview1. In this update, I’m experimenting with a new SAT and Gyro implementation, which I find really helps to “ground” the car — if that makes sense.

I’ve also started experimenting with a Minimum FFB setting to improve compatibility with gear- and belt-driven wheel bases. Realistically, though, this likely won’t make the list until 1.7. Validating the effectiveness of this feature on a DD wheel has been mostly futile, so I’m attempting to acquire an old G29 to do some meaningful testing on my end.

Changes in Version 1.6-Preview1

• Changed: Completely revised (and much simpler) SAT implementation

• Added: First pass at a Gyro Precession implementation

• Added: Traction Control haptic effect

• Changed: Side Force default (30 → 25)
  

Some additional changes that also made into the final release of 1.5:

• Wheel lock effect now limited to front wheels only

• Various tweaks to the oversteer/understeer haptic activation threshold and intensity
