Bug Reports - Automobilista 2 (Read the Opening Post)

On a wet track, the water jet coming from behind the cars looks, especially when driving in the dark, as if the cars are using rocket fuel, i.e. the water jet seems to come in explosions from behind the car. Could it be possible to get a steady spray from it? I also have rf2 and lmu where the water spray looks natural. ACC has the same problem as AMS 2. Is the problem caused by the graphics engine? Otherwise, the new update is good.

 

Track & Layout Used: Any
Car Used: Porsche 963
Applicable Settings: Any, its visible in the showroom so I'm guessing its the highest LOD model.
Report: Graphic glitch affecting the reflections on the right rear bumper, below the rear wing. Looks to me like an issue with the 3d model normals. You can see spikes in the reflections, not a big deal but once you notice it you can't unsee it. The left side is unaffected so it is not just the geometry of the car.
Steps to reproduce: Look at the car on track or in the showroom.

All I can say is that it worked for me, by removing/deleting all the custom livery files so there was no trace of them, uninstalled the game, reinstalled a fresh copy so all the cars only had their default liveries and this worked for me. Took a long time to reload all the custom liveries back in though, not sure if it’s a bug or not, it’s a big update maybe it didn’t like something in the custom files.

 

Settings display _NONE_ in secondary locations for TC+/- instead of blanks.

 

loss of all controls in multiplayer ,have to restart game its happening a lot

 

Track & Layout Used: Hockenheim GP
Car Used: LMP2
Applicable Settings: Rolling start in MP (LFM)
Report: People jumping the rolling start or restart
Steps to reproduce: Throwing this here as it relates to the game mechanics rather than being an LFM issue. Drivers are able to jump the start of the races (and safety car restarts) quite aggressively as shown in the attached video. Understandably, this is extremely bad for MP online racing as it's essentially cheating. The driver hangs back and times the start as to fly by everyone else obeying the start command, timing the start as to not pass before the green flag.

 

Found a bug with custom championship being unable to edit number I opponents on the main screen bedofre you click start championship.

Unable to create multi class championships (whilst having the option available to add classes and even edit it's participants.

Could only have 1 championship save at a time. Multiple championships saves would cause other saves to corrupt and failed to start. Could not run simultaneous championships

Can confirm joining a MP session has a random chance of the wheel not working and having to restart.

 

Anyone figured out a way around this yet? Since posting this, I've noticed that for some reason the right hand red tactile switch down is replicates as my brake bias forward assignment, which is actually the right hand rotary forward rotation assignment.

I've tried to change the wheel type to others, but no luck.

Report: The fuel map settings have 3 different names for its settings:
1. In the setup page: 0.90, 0.95, 1.00
2. In the ICM: Lean, Normal, Rich
3. In the Messages when using shortcuts: Low, Medium, High

It would be nice to make that consistent.

Report: When changing Brake Bias with the shortcuts the messages that appear in the message box don't overwrite each other. This way we see the messages for all the previous adjustments and the newest is at the top, but since messages disappear from the bottom and are bottom aligned, the "top" can be in 3 different places hence it's actually hard to see which of those is the newest one. The messages should overwrite each other just like they do e.g. for fuel map/TC/ABS.

Steps to reproduce: Assign fuel map and brake bias to the shortcuts. Press them and observe different results in terms of messages on the screen (one for fuel map, several for BB).
