Hello Racers,Here is a new TEST PATCH :- New siren sound and doppler effect on all car sounds- A long requested feature, to filter out demo servers, has been added- Virtual Keyboard (press backspace) so you don't need to use the keyboard- Look and Click feature (for VR) so you don't need to use the mouse- An improvement to the steering input of remote cars- Input smoothing for multiplayer replaysThis test patch is mainly compatible with 0.6M- You can connect online with 0.6M- You can play replays from 0.6M- An M9 guest's horn or flash will not be seen on pre-M8 guests- The host must be M8 or later to allow a guest to use a sirenMore translation updates!
