Gran Turismo 7 Undocumented Changes Thread (1.71)

Noticed during some racing today that the wind direction arrow was facing north but the rainstorm was heading south which doesn't make sense. Not sure if it ever worked properly before the patch, only noticed it out of sheer boredom doing an endurance race. But I've been watching the wind direction arrow and the weather radar and it seems to behave like the arrow is showing the direction the track itself is moving on the weather radar rather than the direction the wind/rain clouds are moving in relation to the track

It's always been like this. The wind direction indicator on the race HUD shows the direction of the winds at ground level while the direction of the clouds in the weather radar are dictated by the current wind direction in the upper atmosphere.

During lobby play when you do your laps they now stay available for you to see even when you go to the pits. If you go to spectate and look at your car your times from the previous stint will still show. It disappears when you go past the first sector i believe.

WTC600 on Tokyo Central has been made tons easier by setting fuel usage to 1x, tyre degradation remains at 14x.

Tokyo WTC 600 now shows 1x fuel consumption 14x tire wear

Still, in my experience, cpu cars pit and refuel like before, as if 1x fuel consumption applies only to player...

They must've forgotten to update the scripting of the AI regarding pitstops

RAV4 with SRT demon swap and racing transmission can finally be used during drag racing missions even with invalid PP calculation.

"The slip ratio control and cornering brake behavior under ABS (Anti-Lock Brakes) has been adjusted."

Seems to me the brake balance has been adjusted as well. Reward brake bias has more of an effect post patch.

ABS appears to be broken. Im faster with ABS off compared to weak on the Autopolis TT and in a lobby with BRZ on comfort soft tires. Its near impossible to lock up tires.

Looks like it may be isolated to road cars on any tire. Tried a couple GR3 on RH and the tires lock up.

Can someone test it and let me know if Ive lost my mind?

Heard someone mention less stiff chase camera. I kinda noticed that during my quick test where my tuned Miata was suddenly rocking like a boat.

Not sure if this qualifies, apologies if doesn't (my bad) but the payout for the Daytona Road rubber band Honda Beat 'cheat' has dropped. Now only 400k for CRB when used to be 600K....

I don't know why I know that, as I don't cheat, so like........ I dunno..........a friend told me or something ahem..... cough cough....

One of my test cars for WTC800, the Audi R18 '16 hybrid now runs out of 'battery' 3-4 laps from the end of the Sardegna race. This was never an issue before, it'd finish the race with plenty of 'charge' left(?) no problem. I don't know if this is a change with the hybrid system or a knock on effect of more downforce(?) or other changes...
