Automobilista 2 V1.2.0.0 & Racin´ USA Pt1 RELEASED - Now Updated to V1.2.1.4

You too, although the pace at which you all seem to work it seems you dont sleep, let alone take a couple days off at the end of the week!
The hard work is I imagine thankless on occasion, but its massively appreciated, and its pretty wonderful what you and the team are creating.

 

Yep, working now. Thank you

 

Just wondering, the 24 hour weather slots should there be more than 4 cheers

 

I think the 24 slots is only for Real Weather (at least right now)

 

Ah right thanks

 

What does this mean? What does the error cause to happen?

 

Oh man I just tried out 60x time & weather progression, wow! The changing weather, the day to night, the track, (i mean i've done day to night before, but with programmed or set weather, never without knowing whats coming next), its just another level, im just knocked out, this is emmense!!!!!

 

Had a weird weather session in a 15 minute race at spa after the new update. Custom championship, real weather 10x time progression. Race started under medium cloud and within 3 corners the weather had changed to raining hard and the track went from dry to undrivable on slicks due to being soaking wet. Then within a lap the rain had stopped and the track was almost bone dry. Then the weather kept cycling like that and the track condition constantly cycled between wet and dry. Was very weird, not had that much weather change in a single race in AMS2 before.

 

If you drive a session with unrealistic fast time progression, then I guess the weather variation will also be affected and it's changes (as well as the track drying and getting wet) will also happen at 10x the normal rate and end up feeling very quick and weird.

Maybe I'm wrong. When I do a session with weather variation at normal speed or just 2x then the times for the track to dry and getting wet as well as the rate at which the weather changes happen feel a lot more gradual and realistic.

Edit: Thinking about it, 15 min session at 10x time progression would be 2 hours and 30 minutes in real time, which is still too short for all those changes you mention...

 

Ams2 user after 1.0.2.5 will be like:

 

Hello there...

 

Yeah, I always do it at 10x bit never had this much variation before, thought it may have had something to do with the new weather slots but I don't know.

 

The new rumble strip sound is fantastic!!

 

Pessoal, peço que considerem atualizar a áreas do boxes e do pit de Interlagos, que inclusive possuem as novas vigas de aço numeradas que sustentam os toldos do deck superior, outro pedido é que voltem trabalhem com cores para diferenciar os botões nas interfaces de usuário com os controles mais conhecidos como os de Xbox.

"Guys, i ask you to consider updating the boxes and pit areas of Interlagos, which even have the new numbered steel beams that support the awnings of the upper deck, another request is that you come back and work with colors to differentiate the buttons on the user interfaces with the most popular controls like the Xbox ones."

 

Very few people play at night in the rain and in VR, it's simply too demanding on the GPU. Plus, most real life races don't even run during such weird combo, why spending precious developer time trying to improve such unrealistic expectations. Plus, Reiza don't control the game engine, they license it.

 

This I agree with, a time multiplier of 60X means that if the track was wet and the weather is clear, the track dries up in less than a minute, and this really confuses the ai during races, as they unnessecarily (or forget to) pit. I would like a time multiplier for the track state, so the time it takes for the track to dry/ get wet/ rubber up can be adjusted.

 

Another case of broken real world physics...
I would not be surprised if terrain holes and invisible walls existed in the real world, causing wreckage.
And wonder if any professional real world drivers ever complained about simcade physics, bad sound and lousy FFB.
It's probable one of them complained about too much cockpit shaking though and how unrealistic it was.
