• Hotfixes for v0.35 Released - 3 April 2025

You can find all the details in the changelogs below: v0.35.5 (April/10, 2025) Game Engine Fixed a crash when closing the application Input and Force Feedback Improved force feedback in several steering wheels by reducing the refresh rate In recent releases the Automatic update rate was allowed to use up to 2000Hz, instead of the safer 400Hz that was used in the past.
