Automobilista 2 V1.3.1.1 & Racin´ USA Pt2 RELEASED - Now updated to V1.3.2.0

Merry Christmas!

 

Merry Christmas to the Reiza Team and all the guys here in the forum. Here is wishing (and hoping) for an exciting simracing time ahead. Let's all enjoy some relax and family and be back on track more competitive than ever

 

Taking advantage of these holiday breaks to play AMS2, the Sim in general has improved a lot with the last update but my favorite category which is Stockcar 2021 this in my opinion has downgraded, it was so fun months ago and now it's stressful, playing on brake wheel locks, the car is soap again, it's no wonder that the stockcar lobbies have disappeared from the game, too bad, I'll take a break again and see if in future updates Reiza finds her lost hand in this category...

 

Maybe you need to turn the brake pressure down by a couple % or change the brake bias? That usually sorts out any issues with locky brakes for me

 

Just upgraded my pc to an rtx3060 and this game looks even better now

 

Despite the 1.3.1 update, it is still impossible to lock the wheels of GT3 cars even if the ABS is deactivated. Give it a try. Drive straight (high speed, important), brake hard, the wheels never lock... On open wheels it works but, nothing with GT cars...

 

What GPU did you have before?

 

Just did a race at Spielberg in the GT3s. Definitely locked a few times.

 

It depends on your equipment, but this observation I made is that months ago even without many adjustments the wheels did not lock easily, today without applying almost any force they start to lock and I particularly don't like to use ABS and controls and of course Reiza doesn't I have to do nothing to my liking but months ago I think they had the car fixed but in my humble opinion, they improve many cars but worsen what I like the most, is life...

 

Still enjoying holiday? Mercedes-AMG has already fired up their new F1 car！New formula USA cars are needed for the preparation of a new season

 

I wouldn't expect anything until January. Let people have a decent length Christmas break.

Wow man huge upgrade! Enjoy the new graphics card!

 

Don't the GT3 cars have abs by default ? Could be wrong but pretty sure they do .

 

Yeah you are completely right about that, but you can turn it down or up as you wish, when you turn it down the brakes do lock up

 

Keep in mind these cars are meant to be driven with ABS and TC, even by the most experienced drivers.
Turning them off because you think its somehow more sophisticated or some **** will only make you slower and isnt realistic at all.

 

No, you turn them "off" to be quicker. When TC or ABS are engaged, traction and braking are not working optimally.
You need to set then such that you're on the edge of locking.
It's not about being "sophisticated", or whatever, it about being quick.

 

WRT TC, Button (wrt F1) way back, said it nicely (wrt if TC is allowed in the series, the engines will be developed with that in mind):

There are regulation changes this season, banning driver aids such as traction control. How do you think it's going to change F1?

For me it doesn't really make a big, big difference - I've always been very gradual with the throttle pedal. The only thing that it does mean is that we have to work very, very hard on engine driveability - the engine torque curve. There's so many little things you don't realise are going to be an issue until you drive without traction control. These engines were built to have traction control. So there's a lot of work to be done, we've done a lot on the driveability of the engine but there's still a lot to do to be 100% happy. You'd think it would all be down to the driver now but it's not, it's not all about our right foot. It's about working hard with the engine people and improving the engine and making it more driveable.
