Using a G27, I mapped them to the dpad on the shifter. So there's no way of doing that quickly. I have more important things to map to the steering wheel buttons.

Yeah, like, the button that tells your teammate to go faster. It doesn't work.
 
To black edition owners, is there a way to identify which custom online patterns are exclusive to the black edition? And how do you get the White Ravenwest livery? (Maybe it isn't showing since I have to rely on loaner vehicles atm)

When you own your own car, there are more patterns available for liveries. The white Ravenwest, I've never seen before in a race.

Thanks for the answer! I noticed there are more livery options, but I can't tell which patterns are unique to the black edition. They should have been marked out with a star or something to make it clearer.

Anyone else use hood cam and miss having a rear view mirror? Relying on those arrows is a little dodgy and you can never tell how far someone is up alongside you.

This is an issue for me as well but I think the fix is simple. Hopefully @anim8r_uk can give this feedback to the team.

1. The chevron disappears when someone is beside you if they are far enough away on the track. I've had people come alongside on wide tracks, me taking a wide entry and them hugging the inside and the chevron disappears. I move down to the apex quickly and there they are...and collision. The chevron should never disappear if a car is beside you no matter how far away it is. Perhaps a change in size to indicate a car is far away would work.

2. The chevron should change in some significant way when a car both about to overlap you and when it does. Perhaps a flashing or colour change. Maybe turn yellow when the car is within 1 car length, and red when it is overlapping you. Introducing a spotter would work as well but the action is so intense I doubt a spotter could keep up. I've been caught many time moving into someone who is barely overlapping me and getting spun as result. A simple change in programming would fix this.

Also for @anim8r_uk I still cannot connect to the PS store through the game to finish downloading my pre-order content. Any idea what's happening there?
 
So I messed around with the wheel settings again yesterday, and after an hour I finally got it down pat. The game handles beautifully now, just like Dirt2/3. And since you can use little steering angle the understeer problem is no more. Spent 2 hours trying to climb up the Racenet challenges leaderboards yesterday :D

For those interested, my setting are (Logitech G25):
Deadzones: all 0%
Saturation: all 100%
Linearity: 5
Multiturn: ON
Set wheel rotation to 450 deg (see this thread how https://www.gtplanet.net/forum/threads/g27-g25-dfgt-undocumented-wheel-lock-settings-guide.286646/)
Vibration/feedback/weight: user preference (I had mine at 80%)
 
Why am I always placed 21st in the leaderboards? Even if I greatly improve my time or score it seems it's always the same ranking.

I do love it when people say "a simple change in code/art etc..." nothing is simple in game dev. But..... I'll pass on the ideas.

As for the PS store, I really have no idea I'm afraid... you should probably contact the support team or the community manager on the Codemasters Forums.

Yes, but it still doesn't seem to work. When I look at friends on the leaderboards they are all over the place and not in order of lap times on the RaceNet Challenges. The overall leaderboards don't always seem to find the top times either.
 
I don't know about the scatteredness but I have seen it change up the top times. I wonder if it shows international and national leaderboards?
 
I've added the leaderboard issues to the bugtracker. Yesterday for example the global leaderboard ingame said the best time on Bathurst reverse was 02:09, whilst 3 folk on my friend list beat that time already by a couple of seconds and it was stated like that on the friends leaderboard (but not on the global one).
 
Just done the SPA reversed on the RC tuff track. @Nick Skyline great time you put down there mate 👍


EDIT has anyone had problems getting on the Holden Mount RC?

yesterday and today it won't let me on, yet all the other RCs are ok.
 
Random question for everyone. I was adding sponsors to my online cars and it seems that certain sponsors only work on certain cars? I cant access the ZOOM sponsor with anything other than the R32 Skyline? its in slot 21 on the Skyline but any other car has a different sponsor in its place.
 
Very poor sales for GAS as it could only manage 7th in the UK chart. That clearly shows going last gen was the wrong choice.
