5.6.1

• Fix multiple wheel steering multipliers, affects vehicles that use rear-wheel steering with reduced angle:
  • james8646's 2022 Mercedes-Benz S-class S500 W223
  • Chernobog

5.6.0

Big changes:

• Change traction control/launch control to use relative slip: TC/LC settings need to be updated
• Remove custom FPV camera, it's split off into another script

New stuff:

• Add support for proportional analog handbrakes
• Add option to use text instead of icons for assist indicators

Fixes and minor changes:

• Compatibility fixes for b2802 (Los Santos Drug Wars) thanks to fingaweg and Disquse!
• Always allow wheel and keyboard to trigger a shift
• Improve loading performance (Thanks Zolika for the improved string pattern search!)

5.5.1

New features:

• Horizon lock camera feature
  • Pitch may be locked to horizon, vehicle or be dynamic
  • Dynamic is vehicle-oriented and stabilizes against bumps
• Add MT_ToggleSteeringAnimation to the API
  • So other scripts can pause the steering animation, to play other animations

Bug fixes and other stuff:

• Fix typo in settings_general.ini -> [Misc] -> "UDPAddress" was mistyped as "UDPAddres"
• Fix custom ABS crashing on vehicles with more than or less than four wheels
• Fix clutch check skipped with Clutch & Throttle Start feature when in neutral
• Fix crash on reloading script with ScriptHookV, caused by pause detection for FFB cancelling
• Fix crash on loading in FiveM due to unused-but-initialized code
• Fix infinite loading in FiveM SP due to menu initialization code
• Active speed timers are now listed in the debug menu
• Add 2699 for FX_ASI_BUILD in FiveM

Known issues:

• Vehicles start when pressing throttle, regardless of settings
  • This happens since GTA V build 2545. Previous versions are unaffected.
  • No fix on mod side, I'd rather have Rockstar revert this change.

Thanks sfinktah for internal improvements in this update!

5.5.0

This is a fairly big update, mostly because it completely revamps the force feedback model. It now uses traction data from the wheels to provide force feedback, which is very accurate, removes a number of options you need to configure and should feel more natural overall, and much more detailed.

A downside of this detail exists for custom add-on maps: If they're low quality, this can be felt through the steering wheel, but this may only be noticeable for higher-end wheels, which should have options to blend and filter out such noise.

Following is a full overview of the changes in this update:

Overhaul force feedback (again):

• FFB is now based on slip angle of each wheel
• FFB takes weight transfer/tyre loads in account now
• FFB scales with terrain grip levels
• Includes general response curve visualization in FFB setup
• Response normalized for excessive fTractionCurve values GTA uses normally
  • (can be disabled/made linear to feel more difference)
• Fix intermittent FFB loss for Fanatec wheels after alt-tabbing
• Fix script crash on trying to call unavailable FFB effect

Most prominent FFB settings (SATFactor, MaxSpeed, Gamma) are now obsolete for
ground vehicles, but are still used in amphibious/flying modes. They're hidden
away in an advanced menu. Back-up your settings if you want to revert!

Other wheel stuff:

• Improve WheelToKeyboard, now maps multiple input devices to any key
• Increase wheel rotation range up to 2880 degrees
• Improve device assignment menu
  • Display currently assigned device to a control
  • Display whether a device is disconnected or not configured
• Fix ineffective braking when reversing when using wheel

Improve driving assists:

• Use more accurate data sources to determine slip
• Fix brake force not scaled to handling brake force
• Fix TCS UI elements lingering when no throttle applied, if other throttle effects are active
• Fix ABS UI not coming up for GTA's ABS

Misc:

• Add vehicle-optional downshift protection with visual and audio cues
• Add pitch to g-force based camera movement
• Improve wheel bone rotation precision
• Update support for Wanted188's R32
• Allow configuring telemetry endpoint (IP and port in settings_general.ini [Misc])
• Allow saving full vehicle config instead of just empty/delta from base config
• Fix steering animation sometimes not loaded on initial game start

Enjoy the update!

5.4.2

• Fix shift rate modifier not adhering to carcols modifiers
• Fix broken telemetry since a recent SimHub update
  • RPM is mapped between 0 and 8000 RPM by default
  • Paired with Custom Torque Map 1.0.1, actual RPMs are used instead
• Add 2189 and 2372 for FX_ASI_BUILD in FiveM

5.4.1

• Add option to use physical speed instead of drivetrain speed for speedometer
• Add toggleable low/high beams
• Add high beam flasher
• Add indicator controls for keyboard (no auto-cancel)
• Fix FFB initialization logging error
• Fix FFB applied to invalid axes
• Remove FiveM-specific adaptions (fixed in FiveM itself)

5.4.0

A mostly wheel-focused update to improve wheel experience.

Wheel:

• Rework wheel initialization, which should fix G920 + SHVDN and G29 + G Hub issues, finally!
• Add FFB LUT for better, more consistent FFB. Check the new README section!
• Add FFB setting for understeer effect multiplier
• Add FFB strength UI element
