PTR 2.17.0 (v1)

What’s up drivers!

We are happy to present CarX Drift Racing Online 2.17.0 update!
And that’s what we’ve been working on for the last months.

Tuning workshop

2.17.0 brings one of the most anticipated features for the players - setups sharing. Now, you can share your custom tunes with other players!
Controller setup reworked
We’ve significantly reworked controller settings and now CarX Drift Racing Online supports a great number of wheels, shifters and other controllers. Moza, Simcube, Simagic and many other controllers are now supported by the game. All you have to do - is to open game settings, go to controls - advanced settings and set up your controller scheme.

After that you’ll have to choose type of your controllers in the game settings - controls - devices and choose device to make feedback active (FFB or controller’s vibration) and set up your buttons.
  • We also have reworked binding’s tab and added option to use mouse wheel for gear change.
XDS slowdown zones.
  • We’ve added control over leader’s run speed on the following XDS configurations - ST.PETERSBURG 2, ATRON 3, SAN PALEZZO 1, L.A.BLOCK 2. In case, leader’s car will be too slow outside those zones (or even, too slow inside them) - leader will get relevant message. In case such slowdown will lead to crash - that’s going to be a leader’s fault.
New XDS configs
  • New XDS configurations for Atron and L.A Block weer added.
New cars
  • We’ve added 4 new cars for this update - Kizoku, Yakuza, Bimmy P31 and Kei Truck.
  • Plus, 3 more cars will be available with Young Timers DLC - Loki 4GT, Asura GXR, Zismo Z4.
Stickers
  • New tire stickers are coming with this update, with some new sticker-packs.
More
  • We’ve updated rims sorting by category and garage camera settings.
  • Last, but not least - there are bug fixes and optimization of the game available with this update.
