Simbin has released a new patch for the Steam version of GTR Evolution, improving the simulation in various ways.
The most important changes include a fixed draw distance to prevent popping up of track scenery, the ability to run several championships at the same time as well as a moved user-data folder.
Because of that, you will have to copy your custom skins over to the folder’s new location in “My Documents”, otherwise you won’t be seeing any custom skins. To update your installation, simply start Steam – No info has been given on a possible offline version of the patch.
