Project Motor Racing 2.0.0.8 fixes camera stuttering
Hotfix 2.0.0.8 addresses a timing mismatch introduced in 2.0.0.6 that could make cars appear to stutter in the chase camera.
Project Motor Racing has shipped hotfix 2.0.0.8 to address a stuttering issue introduced after Update 2.0.0.6. According to the official hotfix note, the problem came from a timing mismatch between vehicle and camera updates.
What changed
Cars
- Fixed a timing issue that could cause camera stuttering.
- The developer says optimisations added in 2.0.0.6 created an unintended side effect in separate threaded update paths.
- In some cases, the chase camera could read a cached vehicle position or orientation that was one frame behind the latest vehicle telemetry.
- That made the vehicle appear to stutter back and forth on track.
- With 2.0.0.8, the camera now stays aligned with the current vehicle position, removing that stuttering effect.
For league ops, we should make sure competitors are on 2.0.0.8 before race night and verify chase-cam, replay, and stream capture behavior after the update.

- Following the release of Update 2.0.0.6, we have deployed a hotfix to address the stuttering issue reported by the community. [img src="{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/45601812/bdcbd0bff09556b217d2b977de0e1829a2ad310c.jpg"] Optimisations introduced in Update 2.0.0.6 had an unintended side effect that could cause a timing mismatch between vehicle and camera updates. Because these run through separate threaded paths, the chase camera could, in some cases, read a cached vehicle position or orientation that was one frame behind the latest vehicle telemetry. This made the vehicle appear to stutter back and forth on track. With this hotfix, the camera now remains aligned with the current vehicle position, removing the stuttering effect.
