Troubleshooting - Automobilista 2

That's a general issue and not related to any specific cars model.
It can happen to a lot of types, particularly cars from 1.0 era and ASM1. I have not yet seen it on cars that came after version 1.1

 

Hello,
since the last Radeon driver update 21.8.2 and 21.9.1 as well as AMS2 Update, AMS2 only runs stable for a few minutes at 90 FPS in the Oculus Quest 2 with the Radeon 6900XT and the Ryzen 5800X (ASUS B550 MB).
After a few minutes, the frame rate drops to 40 FPS and the picture jerks without end. The error can only be eliminated by restarting the game.

First, after a few minutes of playing, my CPU frame time increases from 6 ms to over 12 ms and more. After that, the GPU frame time increases and the FPS drop from 90 to below 45 FPS. Reducing the graphics settings is unsuccessful.

I think the CPU frame time is the problem !!

It doesn't matter whether I play with SteamVR and Virtual Desktop (wireless) or with SteamVR and USB cable and OculusApp.

Is the problem already known?

UPDATE 19.09.21:
I installed version 21.8.2 and it did not improve anything. I'm still trying 21.6.2

UPDATE 21.09.21:
I installed version 21.6.2 and it did not improve anything.

UPDATE 23.09.21:
I installed version 21.9.2 and it did not improve anything.

UPDATE 28.09.21:
Today I reduced all graphics settings to a minimum and it didn't bring any improvement. I also tried s with cable and WLAN. I reinstalled the game, no improvements.

UPDATE 29.09.21:
I have cleanly removed the AMD Adrenaline drivers and only installed the current driver 21.9.2 of the AMD 6900XT in the device manager. There was no improvement.
Then I noticed that I installed SteamVR in a beta version (1.20.2). I uninstalled the beta and installed an official version (1.19.7). Here I was able to postpone the problem a bit. It now only occurs after driving for 5-10 minutes.
I also noticed that my Oculus app is running in a beta version. I also uninstalled this and installed an official one. Here, too, there were no improvements.

UPDATE 29.09.21:
I have now tried the AMD drivers from 21.4.2 - 21.9.2 and nothing has improved (all without Adrinaline).

UPDATE 05.10.2021:
Even a clean, newly installed Win10 was unsuccessful.

UPDATE 06.10.2021:
Today I tried it without SteamVR and without Virtual Desktop ..... so via the OculusApp with cable directly. Everything works great here Somebody should understand that.

Now I have no more solutions. I'm waiting for the next AMS2 update


Greetings Thomas

 

I m facing some random hic ups (more of a sudden stop of flow for some millisecs, then the flow "starts" again). They are not happening in the same part of track or in same time, but at random times and places (but are vissible in replays, when they happen..)

All my drivers are up to date, i play the game in full screen mode, vsync off, in a 144 hz g-sync dell monitor (capped fps in 140), render frames ahead 1 (in game and in nvidia's cp also). No matter the graphical settings (low, medium, high) the hic up is there. It is not a "stuttering" issue, as we know it

Any ideas bout that?

 

I have had this for ever and so have the guys i race with but mine might only happen a couple of times a race. just a very quick stutter

 

* Grateful for any suggestions or help, THANKS

*** GPU fans shut down on AMS2 startup ...

- When I start up AMS2 it quickly turns off my 6800 GPU fans.
- No matter if it starts from Steam or desktop icon.
- Have tried all possible GPU setting for fans, every time I start (only) AMS2 the fans quickly shut down AND stay off while playing AMS2.
- No other sim does the above (rFactor 2, iRacing, or ACC).

 

Logitech G920 stops working if I join multiplayer
Game Version 1.2.4.4.1823 AVX
Track & Layout Used: any
Car Used: any
wheel: Logitech G920 driver version 2021.3.9205
Report: Wheel Logitech G920 stops working after joining multiplayer. At the start of the session the wheel doesn't work (no wheel nor pedals and wheel buttons) and the pov changes automatically to bumper camera. It works again after restart the game as long as I don't play on multiplayer.

 

Did you have also the pit crew flickering badly while doing a pit stop ?

 

sometimes, it does not seem to follow a pattern

 

Yes i also see the flickering very random, sometimes a lot and sometimes nothing.
So we have the same issue and it doesent seem to be a bug from AMS2.

 

Hello - I'm getting a crash when trying to play AMS2 in VR mode but ONLY when going into the Settings > Performance.

Few things I want to mention:
1. Everything was running fine for me until I updated the Settings > Performance > Resolution. I was unable to change this setting but all other settigns in the Performance section was editable. I decided to uninstall, delete all AMS2 folders (in Documents and Steam), and reinstall.
2. After re-install, I'm able to start the game in VR and race. The crash only happens when trying to go into Settings > Performance.

Has anybody experienced this before? Are there any log files or other steps I can take to troubleshoot?

 

I can't do new champ anymore with the notformedia beta.
custom AI + new champ (v10 gen 1) = crash

 

In fact, all the champs where i use custom liveries crash with or without the custom AI file.
If i use custom champ and select the car with custom liveries and custom ai, it seems to be ok (not tested all)

Just a simple dedi server question...what are the correct numbers for Practice/Qualify/RaceLiveTrackPreset for Damp, Default Progressing, Green, Heavy Rubber, Light Rubber, Medium Rubber, and Wet in the server.cfg file?

 

You can check in for this in
http://localhost:9000/api/list/enums/livetrack_preset
(the changelog has useful info )

The values you set after "PracticeLiveTrackPreset", "QualifyLiveTrackPreset", "RaceLiveTrackPreset" are

Code:

    "list" : [
      {
        "value" : 0,
        "name" : "Default Progressing"
      },
      {
        "value" : 1349535451,
        "name" : "Wet"
      },
      {
        "value" : 875514911,
        "name" : "Damp"
      },
      {
        "value" : -1183931915,
        "name" : "Green"
      },
      {
        "value" : 368565426,
        "name" : "Light Rubber"
      },
      {
        "value" : -1697720237,
        "name" : "Medium Rubber"
      },
      {
        "value" : 1455398808,
        "name" : "Heavy Rubber"
      }
    ]
  }
}

 

Thank you, Shriukan!!! I just skimmed over the changelog, but didn't see the correct URL. I didn't know the last part of it was api/list/enums/livetrack_preset

 

Ok, how about Simhub overlay using the global map? I'm the only one in my Discord that can't get Simhub to work with AMS2. I've used the -borderless and -windowed command line options and I have PC2 set for Shared Memory and PC1 set for UDP Protocol Version.

 

I use shared memory and udp in pc2 mode
No need to use launch parameters, am2 has a borderless windowed mode. no need to chane ports either. I set the udp rate at 9.
Strange because it all works fine. For the map you don't even need UDP. SHared Memory is enough, but both can be left on. Maybe it is best to join the Simhub discord and check for help there.

 

Hi!

Started v1.3 after having not played a few months.

Cleared all folders under "C:\Users\user\Documents\Automobilista 2"

Settings all done, including steering configuration with hardware:
Fanatec DD2 + Button Endurance module, Heusinkveld Sprints.

Mode: Custom wheel, separated pedals

All button assignments done including steering axis left/right, after that calibration wheel+pedals done.

When starting race and leaving pit i cant steer, it doesnt respond, and FFB holding strength much too strong (Gain 45 set, in Fanatec driver 40%).
Have no problems in ACC.

Any hints?

Cheers

 

No problem here with similar hardware and driver 21.11.3
Done a 50min race with the Reverb G2 at stable 90Hz without problems.
