    Hello guys,
    I need some help, too. I just got automobilista. I can run test day mode without problems, but if I want to do a race the game crashes every time. As soon as I am about to get on the track, the game crashes back to the desktop.
    I don't know what to do. Hope the information of my log-file will be enough.

    Appreciate any kind of help!!

    @Balduin Bienlein, have you tried a Files Integrity Verification on Steam?

    If that doesn't help, you can try do roll back the version, as explained in my last post here.

    I downloaded even the complete Beta-version and it is not working either. I don´t have any mods installed, did new profile... But nothing helps so far...
    Currently I even get the CTD error message when I close the configuration tool.

    Try running AMS in WinXP SP3 compatibility mode. Not joking, fixed crashes for me in the latest version with Fanatec Hardware in use. :D

    Before the last Steam update when i starting ams2, the game crash randomly on desktop. (first time since EA)
    I rebooted the pc, Steam re-update itself on start and all back to normal.

    Just bought AMS for first time (complete bundle on steam) and game won't start at all. Can't even set the video configs as the options are all blank. Tried all the "fixes" here including betas and all those in opening post but nada.

    OS Windows 7 x64 SP1
    Ram 8GB
    CPU Intel i5-4670K 3.4GHz

    No response from devs?
    Too busy with AMS2?

    [EDIT: 1.5.16 fixes the FPS issues...the version that doesn't feature the Fanatec Special settings and Donington+Snetterton]

    Has someone similar experiences with AMS1 like in this post i linked at the bottom? It is definetly connected to running my Fanatec CSL Elite. Before the recent Win Updates, it was possible to workaround some of these issues with running AMS1 in WinXp SP3 Compatibility mode and turning off and on my wheel was doubling my FPS and game smoothness (no joke) in a race weekend session.
    I either have microstutters in XP SP3 Compatibility mode with half the usual FPS or the game crashes, when running it without any comp. modes.
    About half the cars and tracks crash the game

    Hi All

    I created a server with F-Ultimate racing in Kansai GP 2017. We are racing full distance (53 laps), but around lap 45-46 my pc always crash to desktop ( we tried like four times).
    (trace attached)

    It looks like to me in the trace that something happened with the FFB.

    Could be the problem that my wheel connect to a usb hub instead of my PCs USB port?

    Please help,

    Thanks in advance,

    Philip

    Is AMS1 also not starting with opting into v1.5.25 or v1.5.16 in the beta options in steam? @HorizonProto @Philip00

    v1.5.25 is running best, while having the DLC and improvements, here, 1.5.24r is unstable.

    Maybe it also helps, to disconnect all USB devices, that you don't need and reset your player profile for a test. AMS1 is a little diva since the last Win10 updates...

    Out of interest: Have you also tried starting it with a deactivated and unplugged wheel + pedals?

    Damn.

    Okay, does something different happen, if you use compatibility mode for Win XP SP3, deactivate Fullscreen optimization in the properties of the AMS exe and also maybe Steam Overlay?
    You could also post your system specs including peripherials. Might be helpful.

    Check in "Documents" if there is any weird file named "Automobilista",
    alternatively, remove folder if it exists and then re-try.
