2025 Season 1 Patch 1 Release Notes [2025.01.08.01]
This is a Patch Release, containing updates, improvements, and fixes for the 2025 Season 1 Release.
Simulation
Anti-Cheat
- Updated the "InstallEOSAntiCheat.bat" script file so that it can be correctly run using right-click > "Run as Administrator". The script will now also pause at the end so you can see its messaging.
Weather
- Fixed an issue where participants joining a Session after it had been initialized could have slightly different track surface water heights in some areas of the track. Differences were minimal, but it could be noticeable when joining an event with a drying track state.
Dynamic Track Model
- For the debris system, adjusted the parameters for vehicle bodies picking up debris, including better accounting for smaller body shapes, pickups being scaled by speed, and implementing a maximum amount of debris for vehicle bodies depending on chassis size.
- For the debris system, improved the ability for debris to adhere and shed from vehicle bodies.
- For the debris system, the algorithms for flinging debris have been updated.
- For the debris system, improved the calculations for generating gravel dust by tires.
- For the debris system, normalized the color for gravel dust to improve its overall tone in all environments.
Dirt Racing
- For Dirt Oval Racing, apron areas should now be a bit rougher to drive on.
AI Racing
- Fixed an issue where AI Vehicles could lose the ability to support MGUK-only driving if the host leaves the Session.
Audio
- Support has been added to XAudio to allow single channel audio hardware, including many Bluetooth headsets.
- The number of sounds that can be loaded by the Simulation has been increased. This provides greater support for third-party sound packs.
- Fixed an issue where the volume selected via the user interface was not being saved to the "app.ini" file.
Pit Lane
- Auto Fuel will not enable itself if a pitstop is in progress. This fixes an issue where it was briefly enabling itself and modifying fuel fill values during driver swaps in team racing.
Spotter/Crew Chief
- The Italian Spotter Pack for Renzo A. Olivieri has been updated.
- Fixed a grammatical error with the spotter message for having major engine power loss.
Active Reset
- Fixed an error in the way detached car parts were being tracked while resetting. Hanging and detached car parts should now be restored correctly to their saved state.
Cars
BMW M2 CSR
- Fixed an issue with the reflectivity of the rollbar and digital display.
Ferrari 499P
- Fixed an issue where reverse wheelspin under braking was incorrectly causing electrical energy regeneration when a single wheel locks up. This fix does not lessen how punishing wheel lockups are, particularly in the wet, but does prevent the motor generator from driving the wheels in the reverse direction.
Ligier JS P320
- For the damage model, the nose hull has been stiffened slightly to prevent submarining on contact.
Porsche 718 Cayman GT4 Clubsport MR
- For the damage model, adjusted the scrape damage progression thresholds for parts of the rear.
Super Formula SF23 - Honda
- For the damage model, a tuning pass has been completed which fixed a pivot-point for the left sidepod hull, increased the hull dilation for the diffuser and floor to help prevent ground snags, slightly lowered floor friction, and slightly strengthened wheels.
Super Formula SF23 - Toyota
- For the damage model, a tuning pass has been completed which fixed a pivot-point for the left sidepod hull, increased the hull dilation for the diffuser and floor to help prevent ground snags, slightly lowered floor friction, and slightly strengthened wheels.
[Legacy] NASCAR Truck Chevrolet Silverado - 2008
- Fixed an issue where dashboard gauges could appear blank/white.
Tracks
Cadwell Park Circuit
- The pit entry tire barrier is now a fully solid object.
Charlotte Motor Speedway
- A floating sawtooth curb at the back chicane has been re-grounded.
Lime Rock Park
- Fixed an issue where some treelines had some excessively dark trees.
Sebring International Raceway
- Fixed an issue where some tire stack objects were the wrong physical size.
