For every update released, there is the potential for changes not listed in the initial patch notes. Please report any undocumented changes you find in the current update and I'll update the OP as much as possible to reflect those changes found.


1. It is encouraged that you make an effort in verifying these changes as much as possible, either through videos or images.
2. If you need help from the community to verify something, don't be afraid to ask.
3. It is strongly advised that you be as specific and detailed as possible with the information including a brief description of the bug or improvement before it was fixed/changed (if applicable) and how. If English is not your first language that's ok, just do it to the best of your ability.


THIS IS NOT A DISCUSSION THREAD ABOUT THE OFFICIAL CHANGES Only any changes not listed on the official site are discussed here
THIS IS NOT A DISCUSSION THREAD ABOUT THE PROS AND CONS OF THE UPDATE or anything else other than undocumented changes in the update. Keep those strictly to the appropriate threads:

So in an interesting twist for a few days, I will actually be away beginning Friday night for the weekend so I will not be able to make updates to the thread as frequently as I usually do when I can. I will be able to see the thread on mobile, but there's no real telling how the internet will be and while I technically can edit on mobile, its not as..natural per se (Especially with the way I like to format things via PC). Instead, I'll give your posts likes if its something that hasn't be added and has some proof as well either backed up by others or using photos or video. Just a heads up.

Anyhow, post whatever changes you find not documented in the patch notes. Any discovery of Bugs or glitches, physics changes or Engine swaps specifically should be posted in the appropreate threads listed in the OP:

And now you may post.

Extra Menu now let’s players know if the cars are available or out of stock
View attachment 1269046
Its pretty cool they added that
+1 Btw, when you click on the menu it takes it a step further and displays where its being sold.

Does anyone know what the “minimum collector levels” are for both the new EM24 & EM25? Adding to a spreadsheet but doesn’t display unless you’re below it

Yes, it's in the patch notes in the first post.
 
Tree'd. Missed that @tankuroded put what I had upthread.

Not quite explicitly mentioned - the mentioned motor update in the Lambo V12 VGT upped its PP from 790.16 PP to 792.71 PP.

I found this. They've removed the option to manually enter the course in online lobbies. It's the same thing as the meeting place. A weird change from PD... :confused::confused:

Fuel consumption seems to have increased for some cars...I had to save an extra lap worth of fuel as I was grinding Tokyo. I have notes for each of my settings telling which fuel map to use and if short shifting is necessary...I followed the note but still lacked a lot of fuel at the end.

I haven't done Tokyo in a while though, so this could be a change from another update earlier.

I don't remember the specifics, but PD have definitely increased the tyre/fuel multipliers on that specific race in a couple of previous updates.
