• This release has larger changes on the ActivePedal feel. Improvements to pedal feel include:
• Improved responsiveness
• Less inherent damping and friction
• Smoother feel
• Feel the nuances of a force curve even better
• More nuanced effects (may feel even aggressive on higher setting)
• Note that this means that there may be need to adjust your pedal settings to get the same feeling. E.g. preload, damping and friction. This is partly due to reduced inherent damping and friction which makes pedal feel more springy. Also effects may need to be rescaled a bit.

• Add Handbrake role for passive pedals

• Brake threshold vibration and clutch bite point effects
• Reworked friction effect and its UI
• Moved the passive pedal dead zones to the configuration view so they are saved in ActivePedal instead of the profile
