[h2]Hello Car Dealers![/h2]
[h3]Optimization Update[/h3]

• Improved terrain performance, especially on lower-end hardware.
  
• Less GPU load while keeping visual quality.
  
• More stable framerate, especially when viewing distant areas.
  

What’s improved:

• Terrain uses fewer textures at the same time.
  
• Terrain uses more precise texture blending on higher quality settings, improving the look of transitions between surfaces.
  
• Materials are simpler on lower quality settings.
  
• Fewer details are rendered in the distance where they are not noticeable.
  
• Reduced memory usage.
  
• Simplified terrain rendering.
  
• Better scaling based on graphics quality settings.
  

Result: smoother gameplay and fewer FPS drops.

[h3]Other Changes:[/h3]

• Added a new option in Settings > Gameplay that enables more detailed information in the negotiation window, including listing price, market value, and purchase price.
  
• Reduced the price limit that customers are willing to accept without negotiation. Customers may now agree to a higher amount if the offer remains attractive. The less attractive the offer, the lower the chance of a full-price purchase. This applies only to classic listings without the “non-negotiable” option.
  
• Fixed an issue where customers were not entering the dealership building.
  
• Improved map visuals in selected areas. Trees now transition smoothly instead of popping in.
  
• Improved loading of the police station on the map.
  
• Improved traffic pathing for AI vehicles.
