Kunos Simulazioni recently deployed a new hotfix update for Assetto Corsa Competizione - here's what's new within the simulation.
New hotfix time folks! Yes, get yourself logged into Steam, wait for the download to finish doing its automated business, fire up ACC and have a go on the latest and greatest build version of the official GT World Challenge racing simulation.
Now before you all get too excited, no, this isn't the build that includes those AI updates that Stefano is working on... sorry. However, fans of change still have reasons to be cheerful it seems, as the latest v1.5.7 hotfix does have a few nice updates included - not least of which are some further tweaks to the game MFD and a few fixes around various pitlane and penalty calculations.
You can check out the latest changes and what they all mean below...

- Slight adjustments to the 2019 GT3 season balance of performance.
- Slight adjustments to the 2019 GT4 season balance of performance.
- Decreased streaming memory pool in EPIC texture setting preset to prevent potential video memory overload on mid/high-range cards.
- Fixed a refocus issue with the MFD in Multiplayer when the session went from multi- to single-class due to all clients of a car group disconnecting.
- MFD info panel now includes stint timer and a track limits warning counter. NOTE: the MFD info panel is recommended to be set to “Always visible” in the HUD settings.
- Pitstop MFD: added tyre pressure control for all tyres simultaneously.
- Fixed tyre status indicators not consistently showing wear on previously used tyres in driver swap scenarios.
- Fixed an MFD pitstop page issue that was allowing the same tyre to be selected and applied for an upcoming pitstop with the default setup loaded.
- Exposed “EnableManufacturerExtras” in controls.json; if set to false it prevents the game from making any calls to external libraries from wheel manufacturers (Logitech, Thrustmaster, Fanatec) Useful for troubleshooting controller-related issues.
- Fanatec LEDs setting now defaults to off.
