* Small but irritating bug: I noticed that, after this morning's small Valley update, the car no longer kicks up any dust on dirt roads during game play or in repays (single car). There are also no tyre tracks in grass or wheat fields. The car body stays clean.

If I run a replay with two or more cars, however, the cars do kick up gravel and a small amount of dust, as well as leaving tyre tracks on grass. The car body collects some dirt but not as much as before.

My display settings in Launcher are:
Preset: Very Nice
Antialiasing: None
Shader Quality: Very Nice
Texture Quality: High
Max filtering: Anisotropic 8x
Geometry details: Very Nice
Water reflections: Medium
Car reflections: High

There was no Valley update today as far as I can tell..

I had one, about 165Mb I think.

It must be some older update, there hasn't been any update for a while now

^^ Hmm, a bit confusing ^^. I will have to see if this sorts itself out over the next few days or whatever. I definitely had an update as I was connecting to Valley, so...

We'll see ...

I still have particle effects and grass cut paths etc. in mine however...
In reference to latest updates and replays...(my last update was May 23)
When I load multiple replays to race against:
* About half the cars have no skins when starting a race, but if I restart (not reload) only about a quarter of them don't and if I restart again they usually all do (all environments) and even when half don't have skins at the start, when the race ends they all seem to have the skins they should in a the replay.
* Trains don't reset to start position at start of replay. (Unless reloaded)
* Loading multiple replays don't play mediatrack. Loading only one does.
* Loading multiple replays don't show trains.(No wagon track loaded) Loading only one does.
* End of race against multiple replays doesn't show trains.

^^ Looks like your (Demented) situation is in reverse to mine (just going senile) ^^. The worst visuals for me are with only one car, while pretty much everything works ok with multiple replays running.

Ha, strange. There seems to have been some really odd bugs lately. Probably makes them tricky to find and weed out.
Good luck.

My issue now seems to have gone. the amount of dust being thrown up from the wheels has reverted to the previous level and all looks ok. Not sure what happened here but I'm happy now.

Cheers .....
