Automobilista 2 V1.4.1.0 Released - Now Updated to V1.4.1.3

I played a bit longer on a few different combos but honestly It all felt off.. I don't know if its my setup, I'm using default settings for my t300rs but I still couldn't get a decent feeling for the sim. Still at least I didn't have any more ctd's. I really want to love this sim, but I have never managed to make it feel like I'm connected to the car

 

When will they update the website with the new content?

 

Thanks for the thoughtful analysis on the trainer issue. You are probably right in that the tyre revisions have made it more like their real life counterparts. If these drifty cars are here to stay then the AI needs a serious rework because currently they drive the FTs like they are on rails

 

Last week I upgraded from a RTX 1060 to a 2060. But my image quality was worse than the 1060 and the frame rate wasn't better. So I tried a lot of setting (trial and error), but it wasn't good enough.
Then I found this: NVIDIA Inspector Latest Version 1.9.7.8 Download For Windows (Nvidia Inspector). There is a special option to choose AMS2, so you will get the best setting for your Nvidia GPU. The Inspector finds the GPU you have installed. This solved my problem with the poor images and the low FPS. Look at the video on how to use this program.

 

This.

And remember that the "Default+" profile is for people who want this extra "flavour" FFB. If you prefer more basics, then use "Default."

 

I said the tires appear to be overheating too readily. Especially the rears. I expect that to be adjusted (and they appear in the just-released hotfix changelog, so it may have already happened). If not today, soon.

A great counter-example to the trainers are the Caterham Super Sport and Superlight. These are drifty cars by design, and you are sitting over the rear axle almost, so that will add to the dizziness factor. Yet, their tires do not overheat too readily and to me feel wonderfully balanced and realistic. If you push them really hard, they will heat up past optimal and you can back off a bit to correct it. But under normal racing conditions, they are just there, doing their job. I look forward to the less drift-prone Trainers to get the same tire qualities as the Cats. Once they do, they will be equally addictive and can then perform their duty as trainers/starter cars for those wanting to explore open-wheel racing. Some of us are not of the belief that you could just jump into a F1 car (of any era) and immediately turn competitive laps. But that's another story for another day.

 

I'm nowhere near skilled enough to give you the best advice, but I've just done a few runs with F-USA gen 3 at Daytona oval (manual rolling start) - If in a Reynard then starting in first gear seems fine, you just have to be gentle on the throttle. Starting in second you can be much more aggressive with the throttle but bog down until the revs rise. I can't say I noticed much difference either way in terms of how much the AI (100-Medium or 100-Low) dropped me - certainly like you I can't match them at the start. For the first five seconds that is, after which there was always a massive pile up or two, plus so many subsequent solo crashes that there wasn't really a pack for me to chase. I was competitive with single cars though. Dunno about the Lolas, which I think have an error right now that makes them spin no matter what you do.

 

I'm really enjoying the basic F1 trainer (for which I was not familiar), although the AI at 100% is indeed way too fast. At 90% it is more manageable although they are still super fast. I've been driving them at Spa and they pass Eau Rouge flat out, way too fast in a way it is impossible for the player to do.
I've briefly tested the Advanced Trainer and do not like it as much as I find it much twitchy.

 

You likely need to review your FFB settings in the game...start over with proper settings. This is assuming your wheel control panel is already using all default settings.

Here is a quick guide from me
Automobilista 2 V1.3.0.0 RELEASED - Now updated to V1.3.0.1

 

I just tried again following the latest hotfix. Formula USA gen1 and gen2 on Fontana.
It's still not that. It was working fine when V1.4.0 was released.
Now the level of the AI even at 70 is too high (yesterday I was playing well with a level 95 and there with 70 the AI is faster than me by more than 2 seconds). Also, cars slide too much on green light. They slipped a lot less yesterday.
I give up for today.
The first version of Saturday was playable for me, it is not anymore.
I know Reiza will be able to correct this soon.

 

I like the improvements in 1.41, but I find the slim tires on vehicles like the Caterham to feel very slow motion hover crafty. It’s a very unsettling disconnected feeling to the road surface. It feels like there is never a tire grip bite point. So it’s smooth through the grip profile, but then it feels like hover crafty.

I also do find I am having a challenge dialing in my ffb on my dd1 to make it feel more synced to the vehicle I am driving. Using default+ 65 gain 10 low, 20 fx, 10 dampen. My wheel base dd1 setting:

• SEN Auto
• FF 45
• FFS Peak
• NDP 0
• NFR 0
• NIN 0
• INT 2
• FEI 100
• FOR 100
• SPR 100
• DPR 100

Any thoughts would be appreciated.

 

Just did a 40 lap race on the classic Kyalami track with the Formula classics and the AI pitted 8 times. Before the update they pit at least once (mandatory pit), maybe twice.

 

Look at my reply post to someone else two above yours.

 

I would like to say congratulations and thanks to REIZA, beta testers, and everyone else involved in making this great sim! It isn't much more to say that hasn't already been said.
Besides, the greatest compliment I can give, "I can finally uninstall AMS1". Thanks for the memories old friend. Gone but not forgotten!

 

that’s good news. I ran a 100%!race and I got my clock cleaned. Ran an 85% and they still walked me in the start 81 was a little too easy.

Can we have those tire heaters the Ai use lol

 

Formula classic Gen 3 m1/2/3

Sorry about that

 

Yes on a Sunday again

Well deserved (break) big stuff delivered small fixes to sort
