Things you should know about v4 -
Individuel Car Fuel Burn Rate either needs to be set to 10 to make it burn the same way as version 3.0.0.87. Or alternatively you can change the tank size to a lower value
Tyre wear works totally different. There are no Tyre Throttle Profiles. See YouTube video.
Practice, Qualifying and Race are the three types of session.
An event consists of either a single session or a combination of two or three sessions.
A Series consists of multiple Events.
There are no major changes to the way pace cars work. However, the code in the program has been changed and improved.
To use Smart sensors you need to do a firmware upgrade via RCS64.
It is possible to mix Scorpius controllers with standard Scalextric and other controllers.
You need to enable you controller in the controller tab
Damage points for each driver are selected in the Driver/Car settings tab.
Available Throttle Profiles for each driver can be chosen in the Driver/Car settings tab.
You are able to export/import Cars, Drivers, Throttle Profiles and Tyre wear profiles.
Auto Pit is now possible. Go into the pit lane (must have pit lane sensing) stop still for X time and the pit menu opens automatically.
Only use Dashboard Sorting if you have a powerfull PC, otherwise you may feel a delay between the throttle and the car.
You can choose to make your own driver sounds and upload them to RCS64..
New in v4 - Driver positions announcement.
New in v4 - Active startmenu prior to the race. Drivers can change tyre types depending on weather conditions, and also acknowledge that they are ready to race.
