This update provides some optimization and memory usage improvements and tweaks.
The most important thing is NFS:SA Booster - external Windows application to increase performance and quality while playing on NFS:SA server!
Detailed info about what is this and how does it work you can find here: https://www.nfssa.com/booster.php

NFS:SA Booster is already supported by server and you can try it now without waiting for update.


Changes in URL system

• Because problem infinite loading screens while joining URL has been solved, we turned back on URL bans but with little changes: 24h for connection lost, 48h for normal leave and no URL ban for IRC / kick / bugged loading screen (rare)
• Added limit - max 2 tournaments per event
• Improved matching system - now players will be matched slower, but it will be based now on general skill with URL instead of "who first" rule. It means that there will be low chance to match up newbie with very good player unless there aren't enough players in lobby

Score system and handlings

Score system has been changed a bit. It should be now much more accurate than before and performance test less bugged.

• Changed amount of score gained by upgrading parts like engine, tires or suspension
• Changed score range (min-max) for every class and car

Major handling changes for:

• Futo
• Buffalo
• A-Type
• Blista Compact
• Flash
• Euros
• ZR-130
• Mamba
• Turismo
• Counthash

Because Futo and Buffalo handling changes are serious, there also changes characteristic of their toptimes and records. Due to that, all Futo and Buffalo records have been disabled. It means that in-game those records won't be visible and will have to be done again, but you can still check them on website as archive records by selecting proper option here: https://www.nfssa.com/racestats.php?week=topofalltimes

Other changes

• New rankingboard's algorithm - now it should shows proper position all the time
• Disabled collision of torches at start lines on maps
• Minor fixes and improvements
