Fixed some suspension landing issues and implemented suspension upgrades slightly differently. The more upgraded your suspension now, tighter the body roll will be. Overall vehicle handling has been improved.
Truck reset now moves player back to the middle of the track. If the player is auto-reset, they maintain a decent speed instead of no longer stopping completely.
Added a 30% chance of getting a customise item from a cash crate. Gold crates now have 2 customise item chances at 30% each.
Improved appearance and added effects to customise cards when winning them in a crate.
Fixed the fake blob shadow not appearing under trucks on Low Graphics Quality setting.
Fixed Reddit link not working on main menu
v1.5 - The BIG artwork and AI update has been released!!!!
The big update is out!
Thank you all for being so patient. Please download the update and give your feedback on the new track artwork and the new AI system.
Along with the new artwork and AI have been loads of bug fixes and other small improvements.
Release Notes
Brand new environments The race track artwork has been completely re-done from scratch, and uses the latest graphics enhancements such as PBR (Physically Based Rendering) to make the game look even more realistic.
Improved truck cosmetics The truck body paint and tyres now used improved shaders and look much better in-game. The truck customise screen has also been greatly improved.
You can now also move/rotate the truck around in the customise screen.
In-game multiplayer notifications to get more matches Many players complained that they had troubles matching people in multiplayer games.
If you are in the main menu, or in a single player race, and somebody in your region opens the game, you will both get a 'Game found' notification. You have 5 seconds to press ENTER to join this game. If both of you do not press ENTER within the 5 seconds, the notification will disappear and you will not see another notification in that race.
If you both press ENTER, you will be taken into a multiplayer race.
Currently multiplayer matching will match you with anybody within 10 levels of your player level.
The matching will only occur if both players have completed the tutorial. So make sure the multiplayer buttton on the main menu is enabled.
Multiplayer sync improvements Multiplayer sync has received a complete overhaul, synchronisation of opponents trucks is now much smoother and more accurate than it was previously.
Longer content path Previously players were completing the game too quickly, so the upgrade path is now more lengthy and costly, and players will need to race in multiplayer and daily challenge races to increase their income in order to beat the higher level AI opponents in career mode. Remember to drag 4 unique cards into empty upgrade slots to get your free upgrades.
Brand new AI system The brand new AI system is complete and the new system has more realistic trucks to challenge you in career mode!
Too many bug fixes and other small improvements to mention.

I want you to have a bug free experience!
The big 1.5 update is coming, here are some of the new features...
Hello all,
Here's a quick update on the big 1.5 release coming soon and to highlight some of the new features, when the release is live a full list of features will be provided.
The bulk of the work has been done, the new tracks are done, and the new AI system has been implemented! Right now the final polish, bug fixes and most importantly the fine-tuning of upgrades and AI trucks is being finalised.
Improved environments The race track artwork has been completely re-done from scratch, and uses the latest graphics enhancements such as PBR (Physically Based Rendering) to make the game look even more realistic.
Improved truck cosmetics The truck body paint and tyres now used improved shaders and look much better in-game. The truck customise screen has also been greatly improved.
Auto-matching for Multiplayer Many players complained that they had troubles matching people in multiplayer games.
We have implemented an 'auto-matchmaking' feature for multiplayer, which will automatically connect you to race against other players in your region if you have the 'auto-matchmake' setting turned on. So during single player mode, you will get a small notification to join a multiplayer race, when you click on the ok button, you will be moved into that race!
No more sitting on the multiplayer matching screen waiting for someone to join!
Multiplayer sync improvements Multiplayer sync has received a complete overhaul, synchronisation of opponents trucks is now much smoother and more accurate than it was previously.
Longer content path Previously players were completing the game too quickly, so the upgrade path is now more lengthy and costly, and players will need to race in multiplayer and daily challenge races to augment their income in order to beat the higher level AI opponents in career mode. Players will now need all 4 parts to upgrade a specific section of the truck , and will need to enter multiplayer or daily challenge races to get these parts.
Brand new AI system The brand new AI system is complete and the new system has much more intelligent AI trucks than before.
Coming in the 1.5.1 update (roughly 2-3 weeks after the 1.5 Update)
An asynchronous challenge system with virtual cash betting. Challenge another player to a race time on a specific track, and try set a race time they can't beat!
Place a bet in virtual cash, select an opponent, race your lap and they will receive the challenge and will race against your ghost car. The player who wins the challenge wins the virtual currency bet!
The update will be taking a few more days, thank you so much for your patience!
