New version - 7.1a

I've got to commend the guys at RSC. They just keep making improvements and fixes. This last patch solved my issues with PhysX and I can run RW3 now. As I was running an activity tonight, I thought back to MSTS. RW3 is so far superior, there is no comparison. It was worth the wait! Keep up the good work.

As my two pcs are low/medium specs, I just tested in notebook (the lower specs) setting "-FPSLimit=20" (steam >properties > set launch options), and I got stable 19-20 FPS (TSX OFF). Keeping the Steam settings (20FPS), if I choose now TS2012 command line "30FPS Lock" the FPS may raise till 30 FPS, when is the rare case. It means that TS2012 command line checked (30 FPS) overrides the Steam setting (20 FPS). If I uncheck 30FPS Lock, the limit goes back to Steam option (20FPS).

What I'm not really understanding is why CPU usage (Dual Core) drops from average 55-60% (TSX OFF, 20 FPS) to 25-30% when I turn TSX ON (10-12FPS)!!!! Looks like the FPS dropped 50%, because cpu usage dropped 50%! Or should be the opposite?! I'm reporting this odd issue to Support....

TSX was meant to take load off the CPU and put it on the video card, which is why CPU load goes down with TSX enabled. Of course, that means a low end video card will be struggling a lot harder.

No video "card" (in separate) in my notebook, only the buit-in integrated "Intel Graphics Media Accelarator for mobile", it explains the lower usage of cpus. In my desktop I'm not having this problem, cpu usage doesn't go down, despite of a quite old video card (G-Force 9600 1MB).
