Hey guys,
Been very busy with the latest update. So far, numerous bugfixes have been made along with some performance improvements. A full settings menu will (finally) be present with the ability to recall previously saved settings. A new, simple, lag-free menu (the showroom will still be accessible) and a full on weather system (new sky package).
The date will be synched to your system date for accurate sun, moon, and star position calculations while the in-game days will last 24 minutes. This new system will improve overall game performance and increase it's visual quality. Atmospheric scattering has been implemented as well. As the weather changes, so will the qualities of the track. For example if it begins to rain, the track will become more slippery, pretty self explanitory. I hope to have racing AI included in this update, if not, I will be purchasing a different AI physics package as the one I have gotten (was present in earlier versions of the game) is very glitchy, difficult to setup properly and behaves erratically.
We are nearing the one year anniversary (March 13th) of Corona MotorSport's initial launch on steam. It's been a great year and I can't thank you guys enough for your support, I never dreamed of getting this far and I look forward to continue developing for steam for many years to come. I can't provide an exact date as to when corona motorsport will be fully finished and transfer to a full title release but I can promise the journey will be great. As I've mentioned before, I am currently working out licensing deals with several vehicle manufacturers so I can promise many new real-world cars this year. I am planning on doing something big for the one year anniversary so this update will be the best one yet :)
