    no change!
    I deleted controler-profile, did a firmware update with the new thrustmaster package, set the steering range to 900°.
    Still the same!
    Example:
    with the karts, +/-90° steering, but I can rotate completely without any change in FFB.
    If I rotate 180° to the right (kart steering goes 90° to the right) and take my hands off, the wheel goes back (with the menu spring rate) to the 90° position of the kart's steering position.
    The ingame FFB setting is as followed: FFB.jpg

    So, it is just the soft bump stop at the end of the steering range that is not working? The rotation itself works as expected-- steering wheel in game stops at the appropriate spot (eg., +/- 90° on the karts) and your wheel matches the rotation? If so, report in the bug report thread, but I am surprised if it is working for others with the same wheel. That should be a simple software compatibility issue.

    Right! There is no stop of MY REAL WHEEL. The in-game car wheel stops correctly (+/-90° for karts, +/-200° (or so) for F1 cars, and so on).
    OK, I report it as a bug. Thanks!

    When setting up session.
    Default start time should be set to start in daylight ie 12.00 hrs not midnight 00.00
    My fault I know if I miss changing it but any daytime would be better.

    Still hitting pit wall at several tracks whilst under ai.

    SPARKS! ⚡️✨
    Primarily for the Formula Classic cars, I’d love to see authentic-looking sparks being struck up at high speeds. Perhaps they could be aligned to when the car floor scrapes along the ground.

    It would make for spectacular viewing from the cockpit, when towing up behind a rival, to get a face full of sparks.

    Does it not default to whatever option you set it to (i.e., it is a set-once-and-forget setting)?

    In single player yes it does.
    In multi I believe it will inherit the last lobby you joined, if they set no P for instance. then this is were you inherit default of midnight.

    I think that when stability control is 100% on (not the "authentic" option) the correction effect is a bit exaggerated, like if someone was driving the car for me. Anyone else has the same impression? Now it is certainly better than it was on the first beta version, but I wish it could be a little more natural and progressive.

    No assist here for me and all sims Authentic only
    I did start a session a long tome ago after update and did not realise braking and steering assists was on, the thing was so undriveable I reported it as a bug and posted vid to show how bad it was. It would brake so bad it would spin the car around, and brake for you when you turned steering.
    EDIT should have my glasses on!

    I see, Maser. But I'm referring to stability control, not steering assist. I don't use braking and steering assists either. I agree that when they are on, the driving experience becomes very bad.

    How about displaying the a year for the cars in the car select screen?

    Especially with the historical content and cars that are supposed to be "representative of an era" rather than licensed reproductions of specific cars, it would be easier to find out what the cars are supposed to be if you included what year the car is from.

    Call me a pedant, but the game really needs to lose the full stops (periods if you’re American) out of all the screen titles.

    Tyre puctures. You can wear out 100% of the tyre and they will not puncture (at least the formulas I've tested).

    Please allow us to "force" triple screens. We need a way to fix distortion on the sides on 32:9 displays. Easiest way is to just allow triple screen adjustment where you set to 400mm screens and 13 degree angle just like in ACC and iracing.

    Have you tried forcing triple screens in the triplescreen.xml file in your AMS2 documents folder, I'm sure there's an option that is default set to false.

    I just tried that, didn't do anything. I set all the properties in the xml file, and they are not reflected in the triple screen settings. I now see the option for 3 screens in game, but I cant change any of the numbers. They all show as zero, even though I changed them in the xml file. I also tried jumping into a car and racing, but it still looks distorted. I also cant lower my fov under 65, which I would need to do if I had triples (I believe FOV is divided by 3 for triples). Also enabletriplescreen keeps going back to false after I exit the game.
