Main Features Implemented​

1. Race Display
 - Added wind direction and wind speed indicators. An arrow (wind direction) and number (wind speed) will be displayed on the upper right of the screen under the Track Map.

2. Music Replay
 - Added 64 music tracks.

Other Improvements and Adjustments​

1. Progression blocks and application errors
 - Fixed a very rare issue wherein progress made on a Menu Book would not be recognised and prevented players to continue their playthrough;
 - Fixed an issue wherein an application error would occur when using the broadcast features of the PlayStation®4 system;
 - Fixed an issue wherein an application error would occur when 'Shoot' is selected in 'Race Photo' during a replay displayed in 4K on the PlayStation®4 Pro system and with the aspect ratio set to 16:9;
 - Fixed an issue wherein an application error would occur when 'License Plate' is selected in 'GT Auto' under [Car Customisation] > [Other], while progressing Menu Book No. 20, 'Show Your Custom Wing.'

2. World Circuits
 - Fixed an issue wherein the actual time of day in a 'Custom Race' of some tracks would not match the selection made in [Time / Weather Settings] > [Timeframe];
 - Fixed an issue with the Sector 2's Bronze target time in the 'Circuit Experience' of the 'Willow Springs Raceway: Streets of Willow Springs' track that made the Bronze prize unachievable;
 - Fixed an issue wherein it was possible to choose cars without dirt tyres installed from the [Settings] > [Change Car] of the Quick Menu during a 'Time Trial' and 'Drift Trial' on Dirt tracks;
 - Fixed an issue with the weather for all race events;
 - The Overtake function for the Dallara SF19 Super Formula / Honda '19 has been disabled in the Licence test 'S-7' (One Lap Time Attack) within the 'Licence' pavilion. (The ranking boards have been reset.)

3. GT Auto
 - Fixed an issue wherein the racing suit would not be displayed in 'Driving Gear' under certain conditions;
 - Deleted the 'Duplicate on Opposite Side' and 'Duplicate Symmetrically' menu items from the 'Layer Controls' of the left and right arms while editing Racing Suit Livery;
 - Fixed an issue wherein work results would not be applied in 'Car Maintenance & Service' if the work is selected by moving the cursor with the Left stick.

4. Car Settings
 - Fixed an issue wherein the Setting Sheet would become blank, and the setting content could not be saved. With this fix, the blank setting sheets will remain but you will be able to delete these normally. This will also fix the progression blockers encountered when the Menu Book tasks involved Car Settings;
 - Fixed an issue wherein a car would return to its original wheels if the Setting Sheet was modified while a non-standard wheel was equipped;
 - Fixed an issue wherein the 'Top Speed (Automatically Adjusted)' would not adjust properly when a Fully Customisable transmission was installed;
 - Fixed an issue wherein the speeds displayed under Rotational G's were incorrect;
 - Fixed an issue wherein adding a new Setting Sheet for a car where the engine was swapped would not carry that information over the new sheets. The engine swap will now be applied to all Setting Sheets.

5. Showcase & My Page
 - Fixed an issue within 'Showcase' wherein the 2nd page and beyond would not be displayed properly if the number of items in 'My Items' and 'Collection' exceeded 100;
 - Fixed an issue within 'Gallery' wherein the 2nd page and beyond would not be displayed properly if the number of items in 'My Page' exceeded 100 items.

6. Brand Central
 - Fixed an issue wherein an Invitation icon would appear in the 'Showroom' of manufacturers even when the player did not have an invitation.

7. Replay
 - Fixed an issue wherein the Replays and Demo Replays would not play all the way until the end.

8. Multiplayer
 - Fixed an issue wherein the 'Assist Settings' would reset after joining a location and quitting without entering a race;
 - Fixed an issue wherein the weather and time set by the host would not reflect correctly for the other players in the room.

9. Options
 - Changed the 'Flash and Toggle High/Low Beams' function assigned to the default button of the DUALSHOCK®4 and DualSense™ wireless controllers to 'Flash High Beams'. If the button had been remapped previously, selecting the 'Restore Default Settings' will apply the change;
 - Fixed an issue wherein the BGM would not play during Music Replay if the [Sound Volume] > [Menu BGM] volume level was set to 0;
 - Fixed an issue wherein the changes to the exposure value in the ‘Exposure and Saturation’ settings made when starting the game for the first time would not be reflected in the preview screen.

10. Steering Controller
 - Fixed an issue wherein the Thrustmaster TH8A shifter would not operate properly when connected to the USB. Please note that the PlayStation®5 console is not compatible with this USB connection. The shifter can be used by connecting it directly to the steering wheel base using a 'DIN-to-DIN' cable.

11. Others
 - Fixed an issue wherein clearing all licence tests on wet surfaces would not award the Bronze trophy ‘Rain Royalty.’ Players who have already cleared the relevant tests can acquire the trophy by clearing the tests again;
 - The Race Demo displayed during Auto Demos has been changed to a Music Replay;
 - Various other issues have been addressed.

Well I'm glad I got the gold when I did. The overtake function was really handy 🤣

Fair play, that's quite the list of fixes. Shame they haven't addressed roulette tickets or the FR physics yet, but still
 
Are the names of the real world GT drivers gone from the races? Pretty sure I saw them before? Could be wrong.

You are ******ing kidding me! How hard is is to write code that says the licence is gained, now award the trophy retrospectively.

I bet you anything PD doesn't award the prize again for doing it.
 
Say what you want, and this is a small update but it was fast! I’m still waiting for ACC for PS5 update. I just appreciate these developers fixing these problems so the games can be better!

I never finished S. Redid B-1 and got it.

How are you seeing it the same? In Replay it's the same but I'm game it's like it's turned down to 20%
Yes it’s same in replay. In gameplay it’s probably a bug because sometimes smoke doesn’t appear at all I’ve noticed.

If it's a bug, awesome they will fix it. If they've turned it down all I want is a slider to turn it back up
 
And online lobby settings still don't work...
Sigh...I hoped this would be one of the first things they would sort out.

I just don't understand what PD are on, not allowing you to change any of the lobby settings without closing the lobby down and re-opening it, it's obviously intentional, but why?

This is going to kill any organised online racing stone dead.

But it's all good, we got some more music tracks 👍😒

I redid the wet license tests & nothing popped up saying I had earned the trophy... Bummer!

On a hunch checked my trophy's for GT7 & what do you know? There it is, sitting there looking all bashful.

I find the FR physics frustrating as well, but is there something actually wrong with them?

Tyre slip curve is a bit wonky, there is a nice amount of slip resistance until the tyres break traction, then they lose all grip way too quickly, and regain grip way too slowly.

But GT has always had wonky tyre physics at the limits of grip.

I own an RX-8 IRL and have taken it on track several times - often exceeding the limit of the tyres. In stock form there is no way at all an RX-8 could oversteer at 100mph, it simply doesn't have the torque - add in to that the stock suspension tuning results in an inert, understeer-biased setup and there's nothing it would do other than understeer without getting funky with handbrake or weight transfer.

So yes, there definitely is something wrong with the physics.

I bet you if you drove your RX-8 at 100 mph in real life and steered as much as it's possible to steer in GT 7 it would!

Sony charges third party devs for updates and patch roll-outs, as such its not surprising that they don't patch as frequently.

Oh that wasn’t a stab at the ACC boys I was just saying I’m thankful that these devs update their game.. as you said when talking about time I could see PD updating faster than other devs.

Damn. I should have gone for gold on this one yesterday I guess. ..
