Track & Layout Used: any? last time Johannesburg Historic
Car Used: any? last time Super V8
Applicable Settings: G27 pure 360hz
Report: ffb feel occasionally changes itself when leaving (esc) the track, a few times i only felt a low restriction when turning my wheel the rest was gone, twice it changed its polarity resulting in a wheel that wouldn't be centered, but pulls to either its left or right extreme
I think it happened about 10 times in 45 hours play
Steps to reproduce: play and leave the track by pressing esc and go out again, most off the time it works as supposed

 

Track & Layout Used: N/A

Report: AMS crashing to desktop after entering Steam overlay mode.
Steps to reproduce: Press the overlay shortcut (default Shift + TAB) wherever while in-game.

 

Track & Layout Used:Interlagos1
Car Used:Mini Challenge
Applicable Settings:Season
Report:Starting a season in Mini Challenge, calendar goes to Curitiba twice instead of Interlagos1, then Curitiba as in the .srs file.
Steps to reproduce: Start a mini challenge championship, the first race will go to Curitiba. So will the 2nd, 3rd is Taruma, not sure if all will be correct after. I doubt the Interlagos2 round to end the season will work.

 

Track & Layout Used: N/A
Car Used: N/A
Applicable Settings: N/A
Report: Player Profile Career resets every time AMS starts
Steps to reproduce: In my case, just close and start AMS

Not sure if this is a bug, or if it has already been reported (a simple search resulted in no finding), but every time I start AMS my Player Profile Career gets reseted. Is it normal?, as I would like to have a log of all the laps in all the cars as a good reference.

Thanks

 

Track & Layout Used: Goiania short
Car Used: Lancer RS but any will probably do
Applicable Settings: High AI % and high aggression
Report: AI appear to be brutally slow in the first sector, by nearly a second, while being on par with my times in the other two sectors making racing them rather impossible.
Steps to reproduce: Set AI to around 98-100% and check their splits relative to a reasonable human time.

 

Track & Layout Used: any
Car Used: mini cup of Formula Extreme, probably any
Applicable Settings: any
Report: After pausing the game and tabbing out, the DynHUD vanishes and can not be retrieved
Steps to reproduce: Activate DynHUD, go into a race, tab out, tab back in, press 'cancel' in the pause menu

 

Same happened to me with the Karts, loaded first championship track twice and skipped the second track. After that the entries appear to be loading correctly so far, haven't tested any other series to see if the same happens though

 

DynHUD rpm counter is max 20,000 for all cars, not changing to the specific one you are driving.

 

The below is regarding the version that was just released today.

Not sure if bug but can no longer click and hold left mouse button to auto increment/decrease settings. This happens everywhere in UI but examples are setting instant replay duration, race time, number of AI. So for changing replay duration from 80 to 25 I had to click the left mouse button on the left arrow 55 times.

 

Track & Layout Used:any
Car Used:any
Applicable Settings:
Report DynHUD times reset after entering pits using esc
Steps to reproduce: drive and go in pit using esc

 

Unchecked the option for this in the Editor, loaded a car, left game, checked the option again and now it works.

 

Track & Layout Used: Any
Car Used: Any
Applicable Settings: N/A
Report: DynHUD CurrentLapTime Widget "Current Lap" time gets cut-off slightly on the left side. Can be expanded manually in editor. "Current Lap +/- number in brackets" to the left of "Current Lap" has bottom cut-off, but cannot be expanded manually in editor. Small fix to basic widget graphics should fix.
Steps to reproduce: Use the widget. I doubt widescreen resolution would affect this, but possibly. I use 2560x1080.

 

Track & Layout Used: Many
Car Used: Many/All
Applicable Settings: N/A
Report: Flashing textures on pit lane items, signage and a few other random items in cockpit mode. Usually, simply switching to an external cam fixes the problem.
Steps to reproduce: Look around. Easy example is Goiania pit lane area. Toggle cam views to see the flashing appear and disappear. Sadly, this problem has been with us for 10 years in rF1 and continues in rF2. Aside from tediously editing every closely aligned texture in a track, not sure if there is a global fix so we can use cockpit view without annoying distractions of flashing textures?

 

Track & Layout Used: N/A
Car Used: Many/All
Applicable Settings: N/A
Report: Not a real bug, but could external cam views be standardized so that bonnet view is always at/near the point the windscreen meets the bonnet and at normal cockpit view eye level? Bumper cam should be at the point the driver sits, at bumper level closer to the ground, with the car invisible (as opposed to literally in front of the front wheels where the "bumper" might be). It sounds logical to put the bumper cam on the front of the virtual car, but it then disorientates steering because it feels like you are driving a bus where the driver sits in front of the wheels being steered (which would be perfect if it was a bus simulator). Perhaps a very faint graphic showing the physical front of the car in bumper cam could be a widget or something that could be toggled on and off. If we cannot fix cockpit view cams texture flashing (see item above), we need a good proper height bumper cams and bonnet cams
Steps to reproduce: N/A

 

Track & Layout Used: probably any
Car Used: Marcas
Report: some funny business with the Marcas cars in the last update.
Steps to reproduce: When I am in neutral I can throttle RPMs. But when I shift into 1st gear with clutch engaged, I can not throttle RPMs anymore. The accelerator just does not respond. I can not drive the car.
I then let go off the clutch, stall the car in 1st gear. Start the engine again with the clutch engaged in 1st gear. Engine starts and I can throttle RPMs in 1st now and drive. Weird.

Maybe it's just me?

 

Track & Layout Used: Tarumã
Car Used: Civic / Focus
Applicable Settings:
Report: Same problem as #57 PIO79EK: Can't Throttle when I'm going from Neutral to 1st Gear. A also found out that when you shift Up gears, still with clutch engaged, then shift Down back to 1st, it starts working...
Steps to reproduce: Just go to Copa Petrobrás de Marcas, choose any car (I did with Civic and Fusion) and try to leave the box.

 

Same problem buddy, hope we find the solution.

 

Same problem here
