Not exactly sure what you mean...Are you saying that headlights of standard cars have gotten brighter?

Yes, They use to be a pale yellow like color now its a super bright blue color now. Also standard headlights didn't reflect off the ground or the walls, now they do both.
 
And what about the bug that when you use the camera effects in the replay photomode, they'll stay when you quit back to the replay and when you go drive again? From what I've seen it happens mostly with the minature effect.

Thanks for the reminder, adding!

Also, let me ask you guys this: I don't race online very often, but the ability to regulate the drivetrain and tuning status of cars in an online lobby seems new. Can anyone confirm that this was added in 2.02, so I can add it to the list?
 
Something I wrote on another thread, but I think it is worth of being here.

I have a different bug. I can't access the Premium car tab on any online room. The cursor just jumps between the Standard and Favorite Tabs. I'm not sure if I'm the only one. Any help is welcomed, because I have no idea what to do.

And the solution.

Ok I just solved my problem. While in the filter for manufacturer of the standard cars is possible to go to the premium tab. I know, very silly not to notice this before. Still this bug I mentioned before should be fixed. Besides this, and the new chase camera, this has been a great update.

Not sure how many people have this problem
 
It was in before 2.02. It started in 2.0 For the ability to regulate drivetrain /cars.

Great, thank you!

Thanks for the info! That's the proof that I don't go online very often :ill:

Excellent! I'll vote for this is one of the best updates so far! (The light bouncing off the walls and ground, I mean; the yellow color made sense for a lot of older cars XD)
 
When applying rims to standard cars, I noticed that the info displayed above the rims icon still warns that "rims cannot be applied to standard cars." :dunce:

I then clicked on the rims icon anyway and proceeded to apply a rather sporty set of them to my standard 95' Eclipse. :sly: I felt so sneaky. :D

Ahaha!

I did notice that 'documentation bug', but didn't think of adding it. Thanks for the reminder!
 
I noticed a bug in split-screen that randomly assigns elements of the hud without giving any choice. Sometimes you have no hud, or partial hud, or the full hud.

Right, came across a report from one person about this one, wasn't sure if it was credible. Thanks!
 
Known issues - purchased DLC content cannot be removed from your garage either by sale, trade or deleting the car.

Not an issue for me but for those approaching the garage limit or that have bought multiples to try different things, it could be a problem.
 
I tried out a Restore Coupon.

On my TV a message popped up that it Would Restore the Car to its Original State and All Parts would be kept.

So when i tried the ticket, it got rid of the mileage but not the switches :/

Specific Message from Restore Coupon

I fully understand your concerns, but I'm maintaining this as a changelist, so I don't think that it should go here.

Unless this is a change added with update 2.02, that (perfectly legitimate) complaint doesn't really belong here. Even if it was, it isn't a bug; it's completely intended by Polyphony Digital, so I wouldn't add it to Known Issues, but perhaps to some other section.

It's like all those people complaining that quickscoping wasn't possible anymore in the earliest updates of Black Ops. Even though they're right, and even though they're in the majority, that doesn't mean that this was a bug.

(For the record, I think quickscoping is an abomination to the beauty that is the sniper rifle, and should be abolished from all first person shooters, but that's entirely off topic.)

Got it, thanks for the info! Will update the changelist!

Out of curiosity, I'm guessing since the switches don't change, neither does the win count or anything else?
 
People are reporting that 3D has been improved. I played briefly on Nordschleife and I agree, the image seemed cleaner, sharper than pre patch 3D.

This one, and the multi-monitor one, are two updates I REALLY wish I could test :guilty:

Thanks!
 
I found another possible glitch Kyoto - Gion in photo mode makes a constant sound like a diesel semi truck idling, but more grating. Is anyone else having this issue?

I have had that happen randomly but very rarely before, not limited to 2.02.
 
Unofficial Updates:

Shadow Shader LOD has increased
Direction sign located in Nordschleife /24h/Type-V "Hohenrain-Schilkane" (the junction go GP course or Nordschleife) are corrected

Bug:

Replay couldn't Fast Forward any more after 12hour & 30 mins

If it's not isolated to this version, I don't think I should add it.

Hey, that "glitch" isn't all bad. It's quite fun and it doesn't break the game.

Unless it fiddles with the online credit system somehow, I totally agree with you! That doesn't mean it's not a bug or glitch, though, it's still an unintended effect caused by unexpected input.

That also doesn't mean that I don't hope that PD decides to let us do this without the hack, though!

Yeah, I completely understand. I just didn't want this added so they'll change it. Lol.

I have your first one (but in more generic terms):

Improvements were made to shadowing.

If you can be a bit more specific on the second update (images or a VERY specific description of the turn in question), I'd be happy to add that one.

As for your bug, that seems like a very strange issue. I'd happily add it if someone else has the same issue. Unfortunately, I don't have a long enough replay to test it myself.

I'm also adding to the changelog a couple of issues from here: https://www.gtplanet.net/forum/showthread.php?p=6368537#post6368537 .

Thanks for these! The bug is especially useful, because this is an important issue for people who want documentation of their endurance races!

Yeah, I completely understand. I just didn't want this added so they'll change it. Lol.

Amen!

Improvement

A drivers own lap time w/sectors of fast lap will stay on the timing and scoring chart when watching in a online room.👍

This never used to work as soon as you would leave the track the scoring page wouldnt show you laps w/sector times.
 
0 ABS feels improved when braking now.

Added, thanks for the heads up!

To all: I'm going to be signing off in about 10 minutes to go to sleep. Keep posting your additions! If I don't get to them tonight, I'll add them as soon as I can tomorrow. Thanks to everyone who has made suggestions already, and thanks in advance for everyone who makes suggestions tonight!
