Other improvements and adjustments
Physical simulation model
- We have resolved a problem where setting the countersteer assist to “Strong” was producing excessive feedback on the steering controllers with some cars.
Steering controllers
- We have adjusted the control method for maximum steering rotation on Logitech G923 racing wheels. Reaching the limit now produces a natural level of feedback. The maximum rotation will be different depending on the vehicle.
Café
We have moved the initial position of the cursor when entering the Café so that it is now set on the Menu Book icon on the far left;
My page
- The text in the Milestones section for completing all Bronze or Gold missions has been replaced with a number by the name of the scene.
Showcase
- In My Library, the details screen for content that has not yet been shared has been changed to a lighter color to help differentiate from content that has already been shared.
License Center
- We fixed a problem where the player’s ghost would not appear after completing a full time trial on the Super License stages “S-8 Autodromo de Interlagos” and “S-10 Circuit de Spa-Francorchamps”.
Wish List
- Wish lists for Brand Central, Legend Cars and Used Cars are now displayed together.
Sound
- We fixed the horn function so that it plays during an engine swap in [Garage] > [Tuning Parts].
GT automatic
- The correct width of the car can now be seen after installing a wide body kit under [Entretien et service de la voiture] > [Modification]. Please note that the Willys MB ’45 Jeep is not affected by this change.
Lobby
- We have fixed a problem in the race settings where it was possible to adjust the “Initial Fuel” after setting the “Fuel Consumption Rate” to Off.

- On the “Spectate” screen, the control panel would only reappear after pressing the confirm or cancel buttons if it had been hidden by pressing the cancel button.
- All cars are now ghosted when they collide with other cars at excessive speeds, regardless of the Driver’s Rating (DR) when “Ghosting During Race” is set to Strong in the penalty settings.
