Automobilista 2 V1.3.8.1 Oficially Released - Now Updated to V1.3.8.3

Well done Reiza. I hope Ribeirao will be back too in the futur...

 

It got a bit quicker, but (as mentioned) not nearly enough. Around Cordoba I was 6 tenths quicker with the Ginetta with ease (1:15.9 vs 1:16.5) and it's far more consistent to drive while having less tyre-wear. Even if the hot-lap performance would be similar, the Ginetta would win since it needs far less braking-distance and is better on exit if taking the corners tight while the BMW needs every inch of the track and needs to leave the inside door open to not run out of track on exit. But all cars are handling great in this class (better than iRacing)

 

Three tracks?

Buenos Aires AND Termas de Rio Hondo (and also Cordoba, which looks fun, but isn't known to me)?

So the beta guys actually underhyped this, who would have thought. Respect for that, Reiza!

So, now the remaining classes to be updated is everything introduced to the world before 1980, the Hot Cars, and karts. Very happy to have F3 improved, also with a much better default setup now!

 

And another thing I noticed quite a few times, but I didn't want to look like an idiot for mentioning something that might just be random after all: The times the AI does end on a 0 so often. And I know it sounds a bit weird, but regulary about half of all times done end with a 0 which kills the immersion a little, I added a screenshot.

If I counted correctly, there are 35 different AI times on the screen, 17 of those end with a 0. Also notice how not a single one ends with a 2 as well, and this is the case very often on different tracks as well. My custom AI is usually triple digits, so for example 0.705 so I am not sure if just adding a few digits with random numbers solves this.

Not 100% certain on this, but I noticed it quite often and might be something to get a bit of data on.

 

Not had a chance to try yet but looking forward to it. A quick question regarding the 3 new tracks……is there variants of these tracks ie different layouts or is it 1 track per location? I never had AMS1 so I’m unsure

thanks

 

Enjoy

 

At this point, the post in the General Discussion should just list what hasn't been updated yet lol. This is great and should make a lot of people happy. Aside from a few things, this really leaves them with just bias ply and modern street tires left...which will fit in nicely with upcoming DLCs.

 

As it is working perfectly in the 1.3.7.1 version (so it isn't a typo) and I am using custom skins, it is probably not of much use for you but here it is.

 

I hope we get to see the following two layouts added:

Buenos Aires Circuit No. 5-S:


The section from Confitería to Senna-S is both challenging and fun, like Maggotts to Becketts but undulating and with blind corners – the entry to Senna-S can be particularly tricky to get right. Great in slow car classes like Copa Classic, Uno, Fusca, et cetera.

Córdoba Número 4:


Layout 4 (circled in red) has a really nice flow to it, and while driving this in Group C cars, I realized that it feels quite similar to Mexico City in its 1986-2014 form, but not as flat and therefore a bit more interesting IMO. I have yet to find the right line through the twisty section!

 

Amazing work once again. Just going from strength to strength

 

Some breaaaaakmarkers for Cordoba would help....
Buit i think they come anyway....hope

 

So far its exiting to drive it by feel its like a black art

 

All the three tracks are great. I'm enjoying all of them. Thank you Reiza team and Renato.

 

Finally it comes up! i have been waiting this moment since AMS2 release.
Thank you so much!
I love you REIZA

 

I know it isn't part of the current TCR championship but I'd love to see Potrero de los Funes in AMS2. One of the best Argentinian tracks imo.

Underpromise and overdeliver.

It takes three to tango.
