A collection of fairly minor improvements and fixes have been deployed with iRacing 2020 Season 3 Patch 6 available now.
The only car specific changes are increasing the drag on the NASCAR Series Cup cars. There have been some further tweaks to the new NASCAR Road chicance at Daytona International Speedway. And an issue which caused the game to crash when you’re going from Open Practice to a Race has now been fixed.
iRacing 2020 Season 3 Patch 6 Change Notes:
Current Series and Up Next
– In Table view, fixed an issue where hovering the mouse over a logo was displaying a flashing tooltip.
– In Table view, a tooltip has been added to the column header for Registration Closes.
– A tooltip has been added to Unranked Series to clarify that participation in these events does not count towards Minimum Participation Requirement (MPR).
Create a Race
– Resolved an issue where setting the Maximum Number of Tires could cause an error.
AI Racing
– Fixed an issue where adding a new AI Driver to an existing AI Roster was resetting the AI Drivers’ car numbers to default sequential values.
Search and Filter
– Fixed an issue where several special characters ([ ] .) were causing an error when input into any Search field.
Spotting
– Fixed an issue where Spotting was failing instead of prompting the user to download and/or purchase any needed updates or content in order to join as a Spotter.
Clock
– Fixed an issue where the UI clock was sometimes using the local system clock instead of the iRacing Server clock.
SIMULATION:
Connection
– Fixed an issue that could cause a crash during session transition from Open Practice to Race.
Rendering
– Fixed an issue where SMP on GTX1000 series GPU’s often clipped out a pixel’s width of the image on the right edge of the middle and/or right monitors, creating one or two lines down the display where only sky would render. This was especially noticeable if running three-screen mode on a single monitor.
Car Paints
– Fixed an issue where custom specular maps were getting removed from a car after a new team driver swapped into the car.
Controllers
– Logitech keyboard backlight support has been disabled due to a bug in the latest GHUB software that causes a lockup of iRacing on exit.
– – We are working on a proper fix for this issue.
