Some very cool updates there, I think server side settings need to addressed so everyone is using the same settings etc before flat spots are a concern.

Hopefully brake heating and cooling is also in there.

Tyre blistering and graining sounds nice.  I hope it will be visible on the tyres.

+1 for flat spotting, no one wants to do a full race with a shaking wheel from a flat spot.

I think the wear needs to be sorted properly, tyres seem to wear weirdly so I've turned off wear altogether. Brake fade etc would be awesome! The blistering and graining will be purely visual I reckon.

I have got the most annoying fault that I'm sure is my own doing.
I haven't had 5.1 sound for a while so I thought i'd fix it.... Should have stopped right there.
Still haven't got 5.1, more like 3.1 but my sound is better and richer.

Now here is the most annoying fault and it is really frosting my kelvinator.
all sound is working fine everywhere, in every program that uses sound.... except in AC when I'm in the cockpit of any car.
Every other view I can hear the engine perfectly. but switch to cockpit view, even in open wheelers, all i can hear is wind noise. no engine sound at all.

I'd be happy if it was all sound or something straight forward.

I've tried:
Putting everything back how it originally was.
flashing my lights.
Turning it off and on.
Google.
I'm about to try a bucket of water.

any ideas??

Have you tried turning it off and on again?

I wouldn't have a clue tbh.  Out of curiosity what view do you normally drive in?

Drunk view.

jokes!!

Drivers.. haven't tried new drivers...

STAND DOWN.
fixed. Stupid 3.5 jack a bit sloppy and under just enough tension that it slips out just enough a few seconds after pushing it in.

although rather frustrating, thankfully it was an easy fix!

ps with your nick, you should be better at using 'jacks'  :P
