  • Added a new work-in-progress tarmac track.
  • Improved all suspension setups.
  • Added Racing and Rally tyres in addition to Standard ones.
  • Improved off-road surfaces, now they are either more slippery or slow down.

  • Improved gamepad controller.
  • Fixed frequent crashing when joining servers with lawn mowers.
  • Improved vehicle paint-job changing speed.
  • Improved game start-up time after system boot.
  • Fixed graphics settings resetting after system boot.

Server:
  • Added basic event rotation functionality for dedicated server.
  • Added an ability to log dedicated server’s messages to a file.
