Bug Reports - Automobilista 2 (Read the Opening Post)

Track & Layout Used: Any
Car Used: F-HiTech G2 M2
Applicable Settings: Any
Report: The car has a weird behavior when you spin very fast, from hitting the grass on full throttle for example. It should be pretty easy to replicate; it happened to me multiple times.
Steps to reproduce: See video

 

Track & Layout Used: Any
Car Used: F-HiTech G2 M2
Applicable Settings: Mech damage On, Damage Medium
Report: The suspension damage gets reset to 0 after a big shunt. Probably just a graphical bug, haven't tried to drive afterwards
Steps to reproduce: See video

 

**Take care testing this. Lower your FFB gain please.**

Track & Layout Used: Any
Car Used: F-HiTech G2 M2
Applicable Settings: Mech damage On, Damage Medium, Active Suspension set to 9 speed and 8 damping
Report: If you lose a front wheel, which you shouldn't, the FFB acts out on its own. Looks to be active suspension related, since the effect is different in strength and behavior depending on your active suspension settings.
Not that I'd make it anywhere after losing a wheel, but I think it's a pretty big injury risk depending on your FFB settings. I use rFuktor so the effect is a bit more tame, but with a high gain default FFB, it's pretty insane.
Steps to reproduce: See video

 

Within the setup menu, you are changing the pressure of the rear tyres, whilst you adjust the front tires within your pit strategy.

 

True. But the rears don't go lower than 1.39 either.

 

Track & Layout Used: Any
Car Used: F-Reiza
Applicable Settings: Any
Report: The F-Reiza doesn't put the right rear tire pressures when pitting. I've included screenshots of my setup, my pit strategy, the tire pressures/temps on race start, and the tire/pressures after the pitstop.

The right strategy was selected pre-race and confirmed via ICM. Pit stop was requested manually. No pit stop errors.

I've tried softs and mediums to make sure it wasn't a soft tire only bug.

EDIT TO ADD If you use the tire pressures from the default pit strategy as-is, even though in the GUI they're incorrect, you'll get the correct pressures when pitting. Meaning, my default pit strat has my rear left at 1.52bar, when my setup is 1.39. If I keep 1.52 in the pit strat, it'll give me 1.39 when I pit

Steps to reproduce: See report and screenshots

 

The rev limiter noise is horrendous for me. Is it meant to sound awful or do I have a bug?
It sounds similar to this video I found on YouTube

 

Almost a year later and this issue still occurs, we had a AMS2 Community Cup event yesterday in the formula junior, and after the pitstops more then half the field of in total 22 cars was floating above the track, some a little bit higher then others.

Since those events are livestreamed with commentary as well as a lot of drivers that stream it, it really makes the game look bad towards a large number of people, i would prefer to not have the car jacked up in the pits, i know that might not be very realistic, but having cars floating above the track also isn't realistic.

 

I'm presuming it's a bug because it sounds so bad. If I uninstall and reinstall the game would that potentially fix issues like this?

 

A new installation maybe fixes it, but maybe not. I would consider the steam integrity check first. In most of the times, this is already enough and much less work than a re-install.

 

One thing I've noticed is that in races, when an AI driver goes to the pits and has his wheels changed, he stops for a long time, and then disappears (he abandons the race).

It is assumed that if it is due to a problem with the car, he should abandon the race as soon as he reaches the pits, without needing to change the wheels.

 

You would assume that but watching Nascar and F1 many teams often times still change tires just in case they can get the car fixed, so it is not entirely unrealistic. Maybe it should have a random element to it instead of always changing tires every single time.

 

Cheers mate, never heard of that before. Will give it a try

 

The verify thing didn't work, but a full uninstall/reinstall has. Which is great.

 

Yes, you are right
It should be random

By the way, another detail I have seen is in the cockpit of the cars (F1):

Formula HiTech

The digital counter (I think it is the fuel counter), is shifted to the left and the first digit cannot be seen well

There are other cars in that series (HiTech) that can be seen well, although it seems that the counter does not move like those who use the 1993 Benneton paint

Track & Layout Used: Any
Car Used: F-Vintage Junior and F-Vintage Gen 2 - Model 1 and 2
Applicable Settings: None
Report: Shifting up or down can randomly throw the rear of the car and cause you to crash.
Steps to reproduce: Drive the F-Vintage Junior and F-Vintage Gen 2 Model 1 and 2 for 30 minutes and there is a high chance you will experience this:

 

Track & Layout Used: Any
Car Used: Any
Applicable Settings: None
Report: Was running low on fuel during a race, requested a custom pitstop that specifically was supposed to refuel the car, ended up not refueling at all and ending my race then and there.
Steps to reproduce: No idea how to reproduce, first time it happened to me in two years of playing.

 

Track & Layout Used: Any track
Car Used: Formula HiTech Gen 2 class
Applicable Settings: Any
Report: Names missing for the hard compound tire in the pit and setup menu
Steps to reproduce: load into any session in any of the HiTech Gen 2 cars and look at the setup menu or pit menu in session and see no name appearing for the hard compound tire

 

Track & Layout Used: Monza historic 1991
Car Used: Group A
Applicable Settings: Fixed setup
Report: During multiplayer session, with 60min race, some drivers received only ~40l of fuel instead of 110 and had to make pit-stop earlier and for longer time. It was only like 2-3 drivers out of 16. Setup was fixed, so everyone should have same amount of fuel.
Steps to reproduce: Not sure. It seems to be random.

 

Track & Layout Used: Any/All
Car Used: Any/All
Applicable Settings: Photo mode with AMD 7800XT (Possibly all AMD RDNA 3 7000 Series GPU's)

Report: A non-zero value for Bokeh Shape in photo mode, causes a black plane to clip through the image. The blank plane changes in size as other settings are changed, such as Focus Distance and Aperture. The closer the focus distance, the bigger the plane on the screen gets. The black plane never appears when Bokeh Shape = 1. I've embedded a video at the end as a demonstration.

This issue became immediately apparent to me when I upgraded my GPU from an nVidia 1080ti, to an AMD 7800XT. I have looked up this forum and saw it was reported by another user with the same GPU back in February. I have also seen it mentioned in a different thread by a user with a 7900XTX, when it didn't happen to them with a 6900XT. Which leads me to think its an issue with all AMD RDNA 3 GPU's. It is also occurring to me in the beta, so I thought it should be brought up again since it hasn't been addressed and its been a few months since it was brought up before.The issue also occurs to me in Project Cars 2 for what its worth.

The issue is not to do with old confliciting drivers from my previous GPU, as I have done a fresh reinstall of Windows on my PC. I have also completely uninstalled, deleted the documents folder and reinstalled AMS2 as a sanity check.

Steps to reproduce: Using photo mode with an AMD 7800XT (possibly all RDNA 3 7000 Series GPU's).
