Automobilista bug report thread (Please read the opening post)

Track & Layout Used: Taruma with chicane
Car Used: Mini Challenge
Applicable Settings: -
Report: AI's are hitting the first barrier in the chicane during formation lap
Steps to reproduce: -

 

Track & Layout Used: Curitiba Outer Circuit
Car Used: Copa Montana
Applicable Settings: -
Report: Track surface pitch black, with weird coloring in corners (not only on this track, but on all I have tried)
Steps to reproduce: -

Basically, it looks like the texture for the track is missing, and it shows me where the griplevels are (at least that is what it looks to me). It happened completely out of the blue, I didn't change anything, I didn't install a new mod or anything else. I had AMS open today already, where everything was fine. I booted it a couple of minutes ago, and that happened. I tried restarting AMS a few times, didn't help. These screenshots are from a session on an official server, but it happened to me on others as well.

 

Create a new profile and try again. Had this recently and making a new profile solved it for me.

 

It already disappeared again. Again, didn't change anything But thx for the answer

Hey Alex, I've had that strange bug again. Exact same thing, came out of the blue (I had been playing without any problems since I last wrote about it here). I'm gonna send you my user folder just in case.
Though I had to re-create the user in-game to be able to join the online race I was going to participate in. Not sure it is relevant then...

 

Track & Layout Used: Ascurra
Car Used: F-Dirt
Applicable Settings: no (maybe setting the final gear to the shortest setting helps)
Report: The radiator is not big enough on the F-Dirt. The engine continues to heat up until it is overheating. There is no setting available to increase the radiator size. Someone needs to clear the mud out of the radiator.
Steps to reproduce: Drive around until the engine overheats.

Edit: I somewhat retract this bug. As I got better at driving the car and track, the overheating went away, probably because I was going faster and using the gas pedal slightly less. However, I think this bug report still stands because the engine is running very close to overheating, at about 126 °C. I don't know what the optimal engine temperature is, but both the water and oil temperature icons were in the red.

 

Track & Layout Used: Adelaide and others
Car Used: SuperV8 and others
Applicable Settings: Tire sets set to default(10) and then 6
Report: Only 2 x sets available and two different compounds? shouldn't there be 10 (or 6) x of the same compound available?
Steps to reproduce Do a race weekend and count tire sets available?

 

Track & Layout Used: Most
Car Used: Formula Ultimate
Applicable Settings:
Report: Can't run more than one qualifying session?
Steps to reproduce

 

Track & Layout Used: Any
Car Used: Formula Vee
Applicable Settings: Use a H-Shifter with a clutch pedal + Options Auto clutch = OFF!
Report: The Engine fading/starts from itself without the need to push the starter! If the ignition is on, hit the clutch and touch the gas and the engine is starting miraculously!
Steps to reproduce:

 

The UI supports running more than one Practice session, but not Qualifying. You are asking for a new feature, not reporting a bug.

When you do so, please detail exactly how it should work--maybe they will build it into the next title!

 

F Ultimate srs file shows 3 x quali sessions, that's why I thought it wasn't working?

 

Track & Layout Used: Any
Car Used: Formula Ultimate
Applicable Settings: Using high damping values, I think. I upload the setup so that it can be checked.
Report: The car is flying.

Steps to reproduce: Use this setup. I was passed the setup by a buddy, who was the one who discovered it.

 

Happened again, this time I got it on Brands Hatch. Same thing, didn't do anything, had it open before where everything was fine...
Tried the steam "verify files" thing multiple times, made a new profile within AMS, rebooted the game, steam and my pc multiple times, nothing helped. Has anyone an answer for that, or is reinstalling AMS my only option?

 

I had this issue too, I found the only way is makin a new profile.
well you tryed that and no success then i dont know what can help.
maybe a dev read this?

Making a new profile out of AMS I mean, just delete "your name" folder in documents but save your controller folder and then verify integrity. that should work IMO.

 

The other times I saw people with this problem, the devs question was "Is there anything else than coreshaders inside Automobilista\GameData\Shared folder? If so, delete and leave only coreshaders."

 

Track & Layout Used: Most
Car Used: Formula Ultimate
Applicable Settings: n/a
Report: Cannot refuel in "All Cars & Tracks" menu
Steps to reproduce

 

This helped. I had a folder from the Celica GTO mod in there, deleted it and it worked again. Then I put this folder back in, and it still worked. Maybe just a hickup, maybe a general issue with this mod. Anyway, it works now and if it happens again I know what it could be. thx guys

 

Hi guys,

I found a Feature!

Track & Layout Used: None
Car Used: Any
Applicable Settings: N/A
Report: Duplicate car between Opala and Opala86 cars.
Steps to reproduce: Just start the game with a Trace=3

03:30:01: setup.cpp 1561: ATTENTION: Skipping vehicle because the filename IHoffmann.veh matches an existing vehicle

Doing a search for IHoffmann resulted in:

GameData\Vehicles\Opala86\Teams\Combumetal\IHoffmann.dds
GameData\Vehicles\Opala\Grand Prix\IHoffmann.dds
GameData\Vehicles\Opala86\Teams\Combumetal\IHoffmann.veh

GameData\Vehicles\Opala\Grand Prix\IHoffmannWindshield.dds


In a trace 1 or 2, both classes are fully listed but on a trace 3, it just discards the lot:

03:30:01: setup.cpp 1738: Did not add vehicle GAMEDATA\VEHICLES\MONTANA\MONTANA_TEAMS\TEAMMONTANA12\MONTANA_49.VEH (either because it did not pass filter or error)
03:30:01: setup.cpp 1738: Did not add vehicle GAMEDATA\VEHICLES\MONTANA\MONTANA_TEAMS\TEAMMONTANA13\MONTANA_48.VEH (either because it did not pass filter or error)
03:30:01: setup.cpp 1561: ATTENTION: Skipping vehicle because the filename IHoffmann.veh matches an existing vehicle
03:30:01: setup.cpp 1738: Did not add vehicle GAMEDATA\VEHICLES\PACECAR\CAMAROSS_SC\CAMARO_TEAMS\ASHENGREY.VEH (either because it did not pass filter or error)
03:30:01: setup.cpp 1738: Did not add vehicle GAMEDATA\VEHICLES\PACECAR\CAMAROSS_SC\CAMARO_TEAMS\BLACKFIX.VEH (either because it did not pass filter or error)

I also have the "No Replay Position Marker" issue like Diaze in post #749
"APP_BUTTON_RF_TIMELINE_POINTER" or something to that effect...?
AND
I also have the "No name labels visible above cars in full screen replay mode" issue like Erwin in post #733
Both are a must. They both help to make nice clip that ends up on YouTube. I have many rF1 clip on my channel but these 2 issues makes it too problematic.

I was looking to make the Red and the White selection cue when selecting a Series bigger, more evident, so I was going through UI.OSC and I found a funny line:
12103: Caption2="C:\USERS\LUISMI\DOCUMENTS\AUTOMOBILISTA DEV\USERDATA\tmpvehicle.scn"

"Not on my hard drive!"

HF!

P. -S. Your Forums could use more width... people who play today's graphic intensive game have wider screen than that. Me, just a run of the mill 2560*1080... I have more grey area than forums.
