Assetto Corsa EVO developers have released a small but important update numbered 0.2.1, which is already available on Steam. The patch weighs very little, but it includes a lot of edits and improvements. 

These include updates to the UI, changes and improvements to graphics, gameplay physics and audio. Below is a more complete list of everything this update includes.

Graphics and Visual Effects Improvements

Fixed visualization issues with the Alfa Romeo Giulia Sprint GTA and Porsche 911 Turbo 3.6 (964), particularly affecting tuned versions.

The game now automatically adjusts the size of the texture pool to the amount of video memory on your graphics card. Also added an option to disable depth of field via video settings. Fixed pop-up trees on some tracks and fixed interface glitch on triple monitors.

Interface and Navigation

This update also added many UI updates to AC Evo. Some bugs and errors have been fixed and various improvements have been added.

The full list of changes:
