Automobilista 2 V1.0.4.0 Update Released, now updated to v1.0.4.1

That is actually not correct. The MB 190E 2.5-16 Evolution II from 1990/91 (which is the car Klaus Ludwig won the Championship with in 1992) had a 5 gear box. In fact, it was the exact same gearbox as in the BMW E30. The gearbox was build and supplied by Getrag. Also note, the engine in the MB was build by Cosworth.

 

I thought the six speed box was used from 89 onwards...

 

That's strange because for me it saves my custom cockpit views per car.

 

How is that even working for you? Everyone I've ever heard talk about it has the same problem as me, all cars get changed if you move another cars seat

 

Works fine for many. See thread in General Discussion forum, "Saved Cockpit cam for each car"

 

I dunno, that's how I adjust my seat and it doesn't work for me. Very strange!

 

The MB 190E 2.5-16 Evolution II was the last car build by MB. All cars after that came from AMG and that is when they switched to another gearbox.

 

A very good update. Much to do yet with UI and particularly polishing the VR end, but big improvements.

AI are massively improved. I did a 17 lap, 12 car F-C Gen3 offline race at Jerez last night, with AI at 95/95 skill/aggression. I started last and took P1 in the last sector of the last lap. It was a GREAT race.

From start to finish the AI was flawless IMHO. The silliness at the start is gone and during the race, I felt that the different AI drivers had varying personalities and driving lines. If I made the slightest error, they would pounce and they even seemed to learn. They close the door very convincingly when they saw me coming and would swap positions skillfully in a mult-corner dice. AMS2 AI have now reached the level where I consider, with certain caveats, that they are useful good training for online racing.

In fact I did the same race online this morning. The lead pack left me (+2 seconds a lap better) and I actually had a lonely and comparatively boring race. But this sim is certainly my No1 for now.

Bring on Nords for a really good Oktoberfest! Thanks Reiza.

 

What a massive disappointment. Deleted My Documents folder, started game with the latest update, recalibrated wheel and pedals, double checked calibration in Fanatec software, no good. Every single car, I mean every car locks up the brakes before I even get the pedal 1/2 way down. A game that played perfectly last weekend is now useless to me. Fired up ACC and enjoyed driving again.

 

Just turn the brake pressure down.

 

Russell Coight, lol ( @EmilG ) is right for those that have an issue but honestly i don't have that issue anymore , brakes seems pretty right now.

 

5 or 6 gear in the Mercedes 190E 2.5 liter DTM? you can find both versions on the Internet

 

Well that worked. First time I have ever had to mess with this. Previous versions required no adjustments.

 

Had the wheel bug with the new Mini also. At first I thought, oh crap, I’ve broken my wheel.

 

Can also confirm, had to restart the game.

 

Anyone else having trouble with weather? All my sessions are at 8am with Light Cloud, I am picking rain at 1800, but sessions reverts when loading.
Edit...Qualifying 8am Light Cloud....Race did go to rain. Maybe I just dont know how this works. I have 2 sessions Qual and Race....only 6 lapper.
Dóh...nothing wrong with weather...P and Q weather is in their config. All good. Love the new cars.....

 

Did you guys remove or rename your AMS 2 documents folder for this new update? I did and played MP and SP for a few hours today with no issue and i was Alt Tabbing quite a bit reporting things here and in and out of menus making adjustments and it was some really nice FFB with no of those hard right issues . I wonder if the documents folder being new helped ??

 

Didn’t do that.
