    NOTE: lower values increase the world scale, higher values decrease it.
    Correct 1:1 scale to real life depends on the headset type.
  • Now possible to set resolution scale to <100 while increasing VR Pixel Density to render at a lower resolution to gain performance and upscale later to improve quality (for example resScale=70 and vrPixelDensity=150).
  • Minimum resolution scale set to 50 (was 70).
  • VR pixel density steps set to 5 (was 10).
  • Added specific video presets for VR.
Update 1.2 out now – GRAPHICS:
  • Added missing unique Spa 24H liveries for the 2019 GT World Challenge season.
  • Ferrari secondary display now has multiple pages to show various stint timers.
  • Adjusted stance of the Jaguar G3 in the showroom.
  • Pit animation now only shows the lollypop man when serving a Stop&Go penalty.
  • No pitcrew is shown when serving a Drive-Through penalty.

  • Visual car dirt and dust now accumulates faster in wet conditions.
  • Enabled HDR output in the video settings.
    New additions to the video options include:
  • Shadow Distance: changes the distance of the more detailed sunlight shadows to trade quality for performance.
  • Tone Mapping: selects the new filmic tonemapper (ACES) or the legacy one (Default – used in the previous releases).
    The filmic tonemapper gives a cinematic look more similar to the one used for HDR output.
  • HDR Color Gamut: selects between REC2020 (standard color gamut for HDR) and DCI-P3 (closer to current HDR displays, colors are more saturate
    NOTE: the Steam screenshot function does not work with HDR screenshots due to incompatibility.
  • Forced 100% LOD Scale in TV cameras (F3 and F6): these cameras now ignore the UI setting. F1 and F7 cameras continue to read the UI setting.
  • Fixed mirrors showing the last frame when switched off during gameplay (also fixed mirrors showing the last frame when going back to the showroom from a session).
  • Custom player teamwear is now showing up correctly in SP and MP sessions.
  • Visual damage buildup adjustments.
  • Added damage impact effect to the car’s bodywork.
Update 1.2 out now – PHYSICS:
  • Top TC level for storm conditions for all cars.
  • Silverstone and Nurburgring 2019 BOP tweak for the Mclaren 720S GT3.
  • Tweaks on the front splitter of the Porsche 991II GT3 R.
  • Lamborghini Huracan GT3 Spa wet preset tweaks (both non-evo and Evo).
  • Rain puddle tweaks.
  • Fixed rear wing last value Porsche 991II GT3 R.
  • New wet tyres model: less adhession grip, slower laptimes, better control in sliding situations.
  • Aerodynamics – vertical fin calculation improvements.
  • Aerodynamics – slipstream tweaks and larger turbolence area, can cause slight lateral movements if you follow a car from very near side and behind
  • Chassis flex implementation:
    Chassis flex is more of a qualitative than quantitative influence. You will notice the car handling kerbs quite better, accepting more steering input when sliding and more willingness to react on your inputs at the limit. At the same time, handling will be a bit less precise and might force you to work harder to be precise with your line, or correct your line during a turn.
    Chassis flex also influences setup changes. Cars with more flex (softer chassis) usually need softer springs and better damping. Cars with less chassis flex (rigid chassis) can handle stiffer springs and be more precise, but might suffer at lower speeds and mechanical grip on bumps and kerbs.
  • Bentley Continental GT3 2018 performance tweaks
  • Fixed FFB damper not stopping during game pause.
  • Reworked damage system with accumulative damage resulting from impacts of various intensity.
    A significant improvement over the old system that always required a larger impact per damage zone to produce more damage.
    Repetitive impacts now have a much more substantial effect on the car’s condition and the car is much less tolerant versus repetitive hits.
    All cars have tweaks and fine tuned damage values (physics) but be careful as the damage can easily accumulate and repetitive small hits can result in severe damage in the end. Also introducing damage threshold to allow (reasonable) paint trading without affecting car behaviour.
  • Low-speed aero damage now produces less negative effect on drag.
  • Reduced front-rear damage detection cone.
Update 1.2 out now – AUDIO:
  • Fixed doppler fluctuation for external engine sound.
  • Added tyre brake wear audio.
  • Optimized audio channels used for wheel in external/opponent sounds.
  • Fixed audio options not applied on start level.
  • Reworked spotter damage messages (smarter and based on cumulative damage).
Update 1.2 out now – MULTIPLAYER:
  • Competition Servers are now running in a schedule, offering up to 3 races per day with variations. Read more in the dedicated forum post: https://www.assettocorsa.net/forum/index.php?threads/1-2-competition-server-changes.61085/
  • The region assignment for CP servers is technically different now, potentially fixing the “No servers in your region” error.
  • The CP rating buildup is working in a more logical way now, which could cause to reset CP ratings to zero or lower values for some users. This will automatically wash out after a few CP races.
  • Significantly improved CPU load with opponent count with certain (most) types of CPU. This is not necessarily affecting FPS, but dramatically increases the number of cars we can run before the 99% CPU occupancy warning.
  • Significantly improved collision calculation efficiency, causing to scale CPU load a lot better (with all CPUs) on the physics thread.
  • Enabled multiple-pit-assignments for private servers, resulting in higher grid counts for certain tracks. At the moment Monza and Paul Ricard support 60 cars on the grid this way.
  • Fixed netcode warping for higher speeds (for certain server operating systems).
  • Fixed volatile and too high ping measurement (for certain server operating systems).
  • Further netcode improvements that increase the accuracy for cars on straights. This will make cars reliably drive with almost perfect distance, except one of both overtaxes in the player’s bandwidth upload (ie by livestreaming).
  • Added additional (=custom) BoP for private MP servers: Server admins can now assign and set up additional ballast and intake restrictors.
    NOTE: read the extended notes on the forum: https://www.assettocorsa.net/forum/index.php?threads/1-2-multiplayer-rating-changes.61195/#post-1100520
Update 1.2 out now – RATINGS:
  • SA rating will apply a Trust Bonus for finished races, dependent on the race length.
  • SA rating will not assign points to certain situations where the other car is clearly at fault.
  • Added more “outcome” scenarios for accidents, to be able to improve the understanding of “nothing happened” in SA considerations.
  • Rebalancing of Singleplayer SA values to balance the massively clean AI in 1.2.
  • Fixed a timing issue which could make the contact bag inefficient in some situations.
  • Overall, SA will be more tolerant and precise, resulting in becoming slightly easier again.
  • (Significant) wall contacts now will act like off-track; resetting track medal progress, invalidating laptimes and cause race penalties if the car gained time.
