Bug Reports - Automobilista 2 (Read the Opening Post)

As an example

 

The 2020 Stock Car Corolla and one other car (can't remember which one) have broken sounds for the pit lane limiter. It sounds like the car is bouncing off the limiter as soon as you engage a gear, even if you are not moving or driving very slowly. Been reported multiple times here already. When you leave the pit lane, the car will not sound like it is bouncing off the limiter, even if it is (limiter engaged and driving full throttle).

 

Game Version/Build: 1.0.1.3
Track & Layout Used: All
Car Used: Roco 001
Applicable Settings: All
Report: The Roco engine is labeled as V8 but it has a 4 cyl in-line engine (Hayabusa)

 

Version: 1.0.1.2
Track & Layout Used: any
Car Used: any
Applicable Settings: time progressive: 10x // weather progressive: 10x
Report: After raining, when track should dry up with time, and you watch instant replay, when resume racing the track is mostly dried up completely. It seems that the drying process (with factor 10) is not stoped when timing process is interrupted (as it is when watching replay). Otherwise I didn't notice that weather-changing-process (I usually use random weather wih two random slots) is continued nor sunlight-changing. That means, during instant replay, timing is stopped but not track drying.

 

V1.0.1.2
Hockenheim 2001
G1 M1
Ai 100/50
Accelerated time in qualy brings their times down from 1.51 to 1.44.
I wasn't happy
Was also getting an annoying amount of blue flags in qualy.

Report: After P& Q Race starts and 1 player is left in pit again all other players start ok


EDIT turned out to be human error

 

Track & Layout Used: Brasilia
Car Used: GTR Ultima
Applicable Settings: Online 8 ai Practice session
Report: Set up session 2 Host on start of fresh session, 1 is AI

Version: 1.0.1.2
Track & Layout Used: any
Car Used: any
Applicable Settings:
Report: Warning message that media is full!
But there are no replays saved although I saved a replay just a moment ago.

In the folder "\automobilista2\media\" there are 106 files, 101 files with filesize < 500kb and 5 files with > 130MB (I think these are the replay files). I don't think that this could cause a "full mediathek"

 

Found the problem:
After deleting all files older than August (about 80 files < 500kb) it worked.
It seems, when deleting replay not all corresponiding files are deleted and then you get an overflow!

 

TRACK Hockenheim h 77
Car Ultima gtr
Online +10 ai plus Q 20 min 10 laps race
SETTINGS sunny manual pit stop
Report session starts and cant get out of pit engine is running cant select gears
reset session to auto and can leave pit under ai control no problem
Maybe track specific?

 

No issues here with the Ultima GTR Race at same track and combo. Were you using Race or road version?

 

Race Gtr Marc all ai went out, I could do nothing just listen to the engine! only setting change to make it work was auto pit. will try again tonight
Pit guy in garage even waived me out . no other settings changed ie auto clutch

Edit
Just tried it. twice and cant repeat so I have no idear, but I know it was there, signed in whilst sat in pit to report it and still could not get out when finished. No worries.

 

This has happened to me a couple of times over the years in AMS and I think once in AMS 2. Cause: I impatiently start the game before my USB-based controllers have fully turned on/engaged.

 

Mm, thanks had it here twice but this last one was a second session change of track, first session ok at Brasilia. No worries I just keep an eye, pity I was not recording. Glitch not bug!
Just looking forward now to Silverstone 70th. lap 1 will be interesting.
Grats on the test win by the way. no comment on lap 1 there (friendly observation of replay, irl or sim stuff happens!!

 

Thanks, but not sure what you are referring to about Lap 1? I miraculously managed to avoid all the chaos at T1 after a slightly slow start. Didn't touch or get near anyone the entire race as I just drove off into the distance after the T1 mess for others. Luckily I made no mistakes while wondering when/whether some truly fast guy was going to catch-up to me

 

yep thats what I meant

Probably worse if I was in it

Edit The issue with car stuck in pit turns out to be the game failing to recognise the steering wheel and pedals between sessions. and tonight from launching game and setting up session Leaving the game and reseting has been req to get things back working. Bug or hardware ?
I dont know

 

@devs: can you please fix the track names in Shared Memory API.
Now Silverstone has the same problem, the new historic layouts have the same name as the GP layout.

Here are all track names which are currently wrong:
Track & Layout Used:
Interlagos Kart 1
Interlagos Kart 2
Interlagos Kart 3
Imola Historic 1972
Snetterton 100
Silverstone Historic 2001
Silverstone Historic 1991
Car Used: *
Applicable Settings: *
Report: All mentioned tracks have the name of another track variant in Shared Memory API.
Here is the current state:
Name in-game UI vs. Shared Memory mTrackLocation mTrackVariation
Interlagos Kart 1 - Interlagos GP
Interlagos Kart 2 - Interlagos GP
Interlagos Kart 3 - Interlagos GP
Imola Historic 1972 - ImolaAMS2 Imola_GP_1988
Snetterton 100 - Snetterton 200
Silverstone Historic 2001 - Silverstone GrandPrix
Silverstone Historic 1991 - Silverstone GrandPrix

This is a problem for the "Liveview" tool (look at my signature) I'm working on and maybe also for other tools, because you cannot clearly identify the track with the name duplicates in Shared Memory.
Please fix it, these should be simple typos.
Thanks.

 

Version: 1.0.1.2
Track & Layout Used: Kansai East
Car Used: Chevette
Applicable Settings: MP race, 4 laps, car setup locked
Report: Awarded P2 at the end of the race despite leading from lights to flag and not receiving any penalties.
In the replay below, I am driver 'LAW', on pole and remaining in P1 the whole race. Replay is chase cam for P2 driver 'FIG' (started P3). However, at the time the results showed me in P2 by roughly 0.2 seconds.

This was just casual race so not a big deal. However, I did have an SimRacingSystem championship race where a similar thing happened. In that race, I had 15 seconds of time penalties but with roughly a 19 second lead throughout the last lap. The replay shows I still had over 15 seconds lead as P2 crossed the line but the game awarded me P2 by 0.2 seconds. I assumed I had backed off too much but now I'm not so sure.

 

I think you took that corner a little bit to tight
