Release Notes
- Replays, bikes setups and trainers are not compatible with the previous versions

- The chassis inertia, chassis flex, engine braking and top-out springs of the stock bike have been tuned, along with the revised driveline settings range and a few default settings changes
- The fork height garage setting is now measured from the top of the fork
- The extra parameter "ReactionTorqueScale" has been added to "engine", to allow to scale the effect of the engine torque on the chassis. If missing, the default value, 1, is used

- The external view has been changed to try to give more feedback about the forces acting on the bike: https://forum.piboso.com/index.php?topic=15.msg108604#msg108604
- The "heading" control, head tracking and corner anticipation now work with the external view, too

- It is now possible to show / hide the 3D names in replays pressing the numpad '/' ( divide ) key
- The 3D names have been changed to be smaller, lower, have a dark background and fade with distance

- The "kick" command has been added, as an alternative to "eject": https://forum.piboso.com/index.php?topic=17.msg108687#msg108687
- The dedicated server has been updated: https://forum.piboso.com/index.php?topic=26.msg108689#msg108689

- It is now possible to use Alt+F4 to close GPB. However, please note that the shortcut needs further development and at the moment might cause problems


Modding
- To add the Fork Offset and Rod Length garage settings, the bike CFG file must be edited. Please check the stock bike for the "ForkOffset" and "RodLength" sections
-- It is also possible to set the minimum distance from the top of the fork adding "MinDist" to the "RideHeight" section
- It is now possible to register bikes for statistics: https://forum.piboso.com/index.php?topic=9669.0

- It is now possible to restrict a riding style to a specific rider. For a reference, check "type" and "rider_type" in the INI files of the stock riders and animations. Multiple riders can be the same "type".
At the moment a riding style cannot be linked to multiple rider types. If needed, it must be duplicated.

- The plugins interface has been updated to add the tyres' temperatures to the output
-- Please note that the tyres' temperatures output must be enabled for each bike, adding the following line to the "ECU" section of the CFG file:
TyresTemperaureSensor=1The typo will be fixed in the next update

- Documentation about soft objects has been added to the Track Creation Guide: http://docs.piboso.com/wiki/index.php?title=Track_Creation_Guide#Soft_Objects
- Support for track paints has been added: http://docs.piboso.com/wiki/index.php?title=Track_Creation_Guide#Track_Paints
- Support for textures with constant or no shading has been added: http://docs.piboso.com/wiki/index.php?title=Track_Creation_Guide#Shading
- The start stall model is no longer needed, when using the stock one. If missing, the model in "misc/shared/" is loaded

- The live timing format has been changed and an empty string has been added at the end of each message: https://forum.piboso.com/index.php?topic=5419.msg108731#msg108731

Getting quite a few OpenGL driver crashes. This has never happened in previous betas. The 3D driver just closes and quits the game instantly.


Is a hotfix planned for the heading animation looking too far down (lack of translation from irl-horizon to bike lean angle)?


Also, simply changing the damper value of the M2 from 7 to 9 suddenly makes it a completely different and much more enjoyable bike.
PLEASE just put this damper value into the garage setup page as a temporary solution until the proper steering damper adjustment simulation is ready.
The lack of front stability on the default M2 is a major dealbreaker for many new players trying out the demo.

I found another issue with the heading animation:

I was slowly rotating my head backwards and forwards again in this vid

The animation is not capable of smoothly transitioning from looking sideways to looking back.
