Automobilista 2 V1.0.1.0 & Hockenheimring Pack RELEASED - Now updated to v1.0.1.2

I have commented on this in another post because even if you load (or save) a NEW autogenerated setup(via "Set to Defaults") the game crashes.
I have to admit I dont know if some car/track combinations are free of this bug - but I guess not

 

Regarding the FPS drop I've noticed this too . Was at Imola with two weather slots , overcast / thunderstorms with 24 car grid . Never seen below 60fps before but during the thunderstorms it was struggling to maintain 55 FPS .
Did wonder a while ago if the game would become more resource heavy over time as bits and pieces were added ? Hope this isn't the case but we will see .

 

It is the same as pcars 2... When you stop the game make sure you keep contact witth TIR through your hat or trackclip until your game-light goes out. Then you can start again, if you lose contact to soon, TrackIR gets confused and will not work...

 

Yes, it works.
As many others, I had the problem because of setup files.
After update, first I had CTD at Hockenheim. Then I tried Interlagos test day, it worked. I also created a new setup file. Then back to Hockenheim, it worked, too.

 

Cascais / Estoril still has FPS problems, especially in replay, but also when driving.
Maybe better as it was.

 

Are TT boards going to get reset at any point for cars that have changed pace through development beyond 1.0? I think there are already some where fastest times are unachievable.

 

That's definitely not the issue here. I know I haven't had this particular problem before. Plus I was already making sure the TrackIR never lost contact with the TrackClip, from the moment I started the TIR software until the issue occured in AMS2. I am aware this also happens when contact is lost for extended periods of time, but this is definitely something else.

Guess I will need to keep an eye on it.

 

Unfortunately the tack limits system still has a loooong way to go until we can race hard online. One thing I don't understand is that in PCars 2 the system got waaaay better (although still far from ideal) in the later stages of patching so I had assumed that version of the code would be in AMS 2 as well.

Last night I simply quit an online race (P3 at Hockenheim) when it was destroyed by the track limits enforcement rules. I understeered out of the hairpin and immediately got a warning, decided to slow to a crawl (loosing a lot of positions) until the warning became an 8 seconds penalty with a 1st warning for track limit violation. Great! I then decided to continue racing and after getting a little enthusiastic using too much curbing the game punished me again with a further 13 seconds penalty even after I basically parked the car to try and serve the penalty.

I'm sorry but this is just unacceptable. We need to start getting some focused work done on the basic systems in the game all around, before even thinking about and asking for new content. Right now I'm too afraid of commiting to races just to have them ruined by basic stuff like this so I'm just doing hotlaps

 

Is the Dominilab car based on the one I submitted in the skin submission thread? Awesome if it is

Don't know who the drivers are though, definitely different names to the ones I posted

 

I mean... Look at the attached screenshot. Race started with 14 drivers but half the field gave up because of too many penalties.

 

Only ever needed to reset camera and seat after deletion of doc folder after updates otherwise it does not change for me.
Oddly as happened last night (not the first time) I set up an online session and on leaving the pit had no recognition of wheel or wheel settings and I think seat did not change. I had to leave reboot game and wheel then it was all back to normal. Bit of a shock to leave the pit under ai then be on track/pit lane with no steering.

REF op Historic track Thanks for the amount of historic tracks that are in the sim great tracks and car matches.

 

Sorry for the dumb question, but there is an option on the server for disable all rules?

 

At least the 2 cars I drive at the moment F-Reiza and F2 run exactly the same laptimes as before the latest 2 upd

 

@Renato Simioni any news about car template, views and ways to put it in game?

I'm looking forward to start making art in the game

Nice! Sadly doesn't seem to be the case for all cars

I summon your alienest of aliens to beat the Cascavel TT record in the Chevette. Could be that I'm just doing something wrong but seems pretty unachievable to me. I checked the guys setup and it seems fairly normal. I also tried loading his ghost and even if I enter T1 and get on the power at what seems like the same time he is pulling away up the road to the tune of 6 tenths in the first sector. Unleash the Heitor!

 

Im comming from Raceroom where Im topping most of the TT LBs in the 3x Formula90ties.
Slightly bragging

But suddenly one guy popped up on my favorite track (LakeView Hillclimb) and he was 1.5 sec faster than anything I ever thought possible.
I watched his ghost and almost everywhere he was pulling away from me.
Then I wrote a complain to the customer service that I have found one guy who was obviously cheating via some kind of hack or whatever.
Hehe luckily I didnt post the complain

Instead I started some heavy practice focusing solely on this track.
And heureca - because after a lot of starts on this track I suddenly could match him - and hehe even make some faster times.
So...

 

I'm certainly not suggesting anyone is cheating I'm just assuming some update post 1.0 has slowed the Chevette down. It isn't a difficult car to drive so find it hard to see there being 0.8 left in it, most of which is in the first sector. Any aliens out there please prove me wrong and I will accept I just need to git gud. The way the P1 ghost is faster makes it look like something has changed with the car though IMO.
