Bug Reports - Automobilista 2 (Read the Opening Post)

Maybe. I have never used a dead zone for my pedals in any sim or game. I paid enough for them, I want every tick of resolution!

 

I noticed a graphics glitch on the new kyalami track last night, when racing there at night time with the track lights on there are these weird black shapes sitting in the middle of the track I reckon there was about 15 of the throughout the lap. I seem to recall this being an issue in PC2 at night in some tracks before. I assume it is something to do with the graphics engine being used

 

Track & Layout Used: Brands Hatch GP
Car Used: Doesn't matter
Applicable Settings: Time Trial
Report: Lap times are not logged on Brands Hatch during Time Trial. The time stays red, same as when you log an invalid lap time
Steps to reproduce: Run a Time Trial on Brands Hatch

 

Track & Layout Used: Ibarra (happened on other tracks as well)
Car Used: Fusca CA (Copa Classic)
Report: Race one race and then after the race I choose "Restart session". After the 2nd race the after race menu is frozen (film in the background still running) and there is no way to get out of the menu except for rebooting the computer
Steps to reproduce: 4 laps (probably happen with fewer laps as well) at this track and then restart the session. 24 AI cars

Report: RPM leds are not working on my Thrusmaster TS-PC wheel
Steps to reproduce:

 

Happened to me for the very first time yesterday (and in VR), exact same problem. It was at Kyalami Historic with Rocco car. End of a 3 laps race. Killing with Task manager.

 

Track & Layout Used: Donington, but probably doesn't matter
Car Used: Stock Car (2019)
Applicable Settings: Rain On, preferably heavy
Report: Rain present in cockpit
Steps to reproduce: Drive in rain with the 2019 Stock Car and falling rain appears in the cockpit.

 

Track & Layout Used: Kyalami 2019
Car Used: P2
Applicable Settings: Online Multiplayer server, race after qualification
Report: Car "explodes" on race start
Game Version: 0.9.1.0
Steps to reproduce: This was an issue in very early release too that I encountered. I was driving in qualifying untill the last second of the timer and after, right to the point where game took me off the track and showed the waiting screen before race. Below in the video you can see it. So, when timer before race gets to 40 and my car is placed on track, it flys off, and I get disqualified. My non-programmer guess is that the force from quali driving gets carried over, and I crash into the tarmac of start lineup. If I stop the car after quali timer runs out, this does not happen.

 

Track & Layout Used: N/A
Car Used: N/A
Applicable Settings: N/A
Report: Desktop Icon very low resolution
Steps to reproduce: Rightclick AMS2 in Steam > Manage > Add Desktop Shortcut, look at the shortcut image.

 

Track & Layout Used: Any
Car Used: Any
Applicable Settings: Triple Screens ON
Report: Clouds and Sprite Trees turn at odd angles on side monitors
Steps to reproduce: Turn on and configure Triple Screens, pick any car and track as well as cloudy weather and a track that has sprite trees. Drive around and note the odd movement of clouds and trees on the side monitors only.
This is an issue in PC2 as well, hopefully Reiza can get it sorted better than the folks at SMS can. Very distracting in certain situations, less noticeable in others.

 

Track & Layout Used: Any
Car Used: Stock Car 2019
Applicable Settings: Mirrors On
Report: In-car Center Mirror warped
Steps to reproduce: When in car, look up at the center mirror in the car and observe the warping effect.
This makes the central mirror unusable due to the extreme warping.

 

Track & Layout Used: Any
Car Used: SuperKart
Applicable Settings: N/A
Report: Vehicle is H-Pattern when it should be sequential
Steps to reproduce: Select car in UI, observe "H-Pattern" designation. Drive around and note sluggish gear changes with paddles, denoting use of H-Pattern box. Kart is sequential in AMS1 and in real life due to moto-style gearbox.

 

Track & Layout Used: Imola, but probably any
Car Used: SuperKart
Applicable Settings: N/A
Report: Pit direction pitcrew member made of red boxes
Steps to reproduce: Spawn in game, note pitcrew member's red and boxy appearance to left or right of kart.

 

A bug I would like to report is the laggy car setup screens, this was also an issue in PC2 and always happens when trying to change any cars setup. You hover over so.e of the options and they stay greyed out until you move the cursor elsewhere and then come back to the same option again.

 

Track & Layout Used: any
Car Used: any
Applicable Settings: Auto Ignition
Report: Turning Auto Ignition off does not deactivate the engine auto-starting when you press drive
Steps to reproduce: Turn auto ignition off, load a car and press drive, and watch the car magically turn itself on even though auto ignition was just turned off.

 

It also seems to have exaggerated magnification that is quite disorientating while driving in cockpit view.

 

Track & Layout Used: N/A
Car Used: N/A
Applicable Settings: Triple Screen ON
Report: Certain UI elements not confined to center screen
Steps to reproduce: When in triple screen mode, the main menu top bar, in session exit menu, replay controls, and monitor screen controls are not confined to the center screen.

 

same in free practice, laps not counted, lap time not started (car used: ultima)

 

Track & Layout Used: N/A
Car Used: N/A
Applicable Settings: N/A
Report: VR HUD display still need to be manually changed in xml file to appear correctly
Steps to reproduce: Display HUD in VR

I deleted my "Automobilista 2" Document folder to reset all (FFB and cars feel different after this by the way, I didn't last time with 0.9.1.0 and it was a mistake). Then I saw that VR HUD display still having a weird angle, so I edited the Oculussettings.xml file like I did very first time with first EA version. I thought it was fixed and I was wrong. Not an huge priority I agree.

For completion this is the change I made in Oculussettings.xml :
<prop name="HUDSettings" offSetX="0.010054" offSetY="0.061950" offSetZ="-0.580263" scale="0.559927" rotateX="-0.017535" rotateY="-0.003423" rotateZ="0.000832" rotateW="0.999840" />
