    Plans for the next release

    Hey fellas,

    Thought it'd be nice to keep a discussion going about what's planned for the next release. Sometimes this will go quiet for a while, sometimes it'll be full of interesting things .

    From my perspective, I'd like to get proper sector-based yellow flag messages and full course yellow support in Autimobilista, along with some general AMS bug fixes. This is based on Vytautas' work for rF2 and seems like an easy port.

    The other thing I'm considering is bringing the personalisation stuff into the app properly, so it gets downloaded as an add-on sound pack by the app, and the app allows the user to select his own name from a big list.

    I'd also like to add another batch of recordings to increase the variety of the existing messages, but this isn't tied to a particular app release.

    Just finished adding the personalisations to the main app, so now it looks like this:



    The personalisations are downloaded like the driver names and sound packs, with the same update notification process. It seems to work very nicely, but if you change the selected personalisation from that list you need to restart the app for it to take effect

    You can add even more awesomeness to the list just by adding "Morten" to it

    Great work you two - this really is the best app for AC and I couldn't imagine not using it to race now :-)

    Morten - I'll add you to the magic list today, along with 10 or 20 others I've got in my backlog

    How's the AC timing fix coming on? Shall I wait for you to make your changes before I release this? I'm (nearly) ready to push an update

    You're now in the personalisations list Morten (along with Vytautas and a bunch of other names) - you should be prompted for Personalisations update when you start the app. I fixed a couple of other issues with the restart logic - if you want a proper build, it can be downloaded here:

    I think I'm 'done' for this release, so I'm just waiting for any changes you and Vytautas want to add - as far as I know the main AC one is the lap time data sometimes being out of date

    Thanks alot!, there should be a merge request ready for you, it seems to have done the job of fixing AC lap data.

    nice one, that's now merged

    Vytautas - I'm thinking about pushing out a release today. I see you have stuff 'in flight' - do you want me to wait so we can include your stuff? Or are you happy to push yours into a later release?

    Well I just released it. Twice because the properties weren't saving for reasons best known to Microsoft. Should be OK now so the official release is now version 4.6.1.2
