Assetto Corsa - Development Update 0.7.5
Hello from the Assetto Corsa development team.
Assetto Corsa Early Access v.0.7.5 has been released today. This version includes the new Pagani Huayra Model Year 2013: this awesome hypercar has been modeled and reproduced in cooperation with the R&D department at Pagani Automobili, that also provided the algorithms needed to feature the active aero system performed by the Huayra: seven aerodynamic devices simulate drag and downforce, four of them are movable, controlled by sixteen telemetry channels.
All of this, plus the precise suspension kinematics taken from official Pagani IGES data, the engine twin turbo simulation and the advanced tyre model, makes for an exciting driving
experience, second only to the real counterpart.
This new version of Assetto Corsa includes minor improvements and optimizations to the UI functionalities, AI driving lines and performances, as well as some workaround for AI collisions
that guarantee a better race experience while our development team continue to work on bigger and complex tasks with the aim to reach the 1.0 version of the game soon enough.
This week our development team had the pleasure to meet Aaron Davies, Head of Developer Relations at Oculus VR, working closely with him and his staff at our R&D office to improve compatibility and performance of Assetto Corsa with the Oculus Rift technology, in order to provide the best support to Oculus VR for future updates.
