New Damage Model
With the 2023 Season 1 Release, some long-standing issues with the overall New Damage Model were fixed. Because of these issues, cars developed using the New Damage Model prior to 2023 Season 1 were generally stronger and more durable than was realistic in order to counter these systemic issues. This Patch includes a variety of New Damage Model adjustments to reset these cars to realistic and ideal settings now that these long-standing issues have been solved. Generally, this will serve to weaken many cars utilizing the New Damage Model. Drive carefully!
Camera
A new control has been added to the camera tool to increase or decrease the amount of motion blur on that camera. This value is set on a per-camera basis.
Telemetry
A new telemetry value, "ClutchRaw" has been added.
- - This value shows your raw clutch pedal position without the anti-stall clutch aid being applied. This matches the other values like BrakeRaw.
