Automobilista 2 V1.4.3.3 & Racin´ USA Pt3 Officially Released!

It's finally happening. The AI is evolving...Try again tmrw to see if they are even faster, if so burn your computer and run!

 

I consider myself an above average kart driver (my best sim racing discipline), and on some tracks, I can't beat the AI at skill 100. One major exception is around Speedland, where the AI is still slow (but at least they don't get stuck as much as before).

 

The Copa Montana's have the boost button activated in ovals, I think it should be disabled for ovals.

 

I assume the sports cars are supposed to be veried like this at LDF tracks?

If So, then I need a way to manually switch to the LDF kit, as I'm stuck on the HDF kit currently

 

Hmm.
I didn’t seem to redefine anything, but I didn’t feel the true force effect. For "feel" comparison I take the implementation as it in the ACC.
In AMC 2 should be about the same sensations? Maybe am I doing something wrong? Should there be some settings in the AMC 2 settings menu?

 

Hi everyone, just another simracing newcomer here. Have been enjoying the RC very much, thanks a lot to the team!
Have a small issue with Fanatec setup: while CSL DD seems to be natively supported, the wheel LCD and rev meter only work in AMS2 when device is in the compatibility (CSW2.5) mode (power LED yellow and CSW 2.5 profile selected in the game). When device is in the native/PC/red mode and CSL DD profile is selected in the game then both LED display and rev. meter remain dark (everything else works: input, FFB, buttons). Is it a bug or intentional behaviour? Is there any advantage in using native mode, sacrificing rev and LED displays?
Setup: W10, CSL DD 8nm + Clubsport Wheel RS, Fanatec Driver 447, Latest RC AMS2 Build.

 

MOMMAAAAAAAAA

MOMMAAAAAAAAA
LIFE HAD JUST BEGUN
I NOW I'VE GONE AND THROWN IT ALLLLLLL AWAY

 

I'm not saying there aren't lots of closed cars, but naturally their handling characteristics vary a lot.

I'm explicitly saying though that I personally would love to see more DTM/BTCC style cars with the handling (and noise) characteristics that this brings with it. They feel particularly fun at (and over) the limit of traction (fun but you don't need to work too hard not to die). Many of the other cars you listed are either very planted (GT3 etc) or very wild (SupercarV8, 70's Porsche). Stockcars come close tbf, though over the limit they tend to be very hard to catch (again, my opinion), which encourages driving under the limit. (this is not to say that all these cars aren't fun to drive, they very much are, but for different reasons than those I am trying to express).

For me, DTM/BTCC have a great balance and thus driving satisfaction. You can take them to and over the limit, have fun, keep them dancing and bringing them back in line and racing on.

I know however that everyone has different opinions and preferences, I just see this opinion under-represented on the forum I wanted to call it out.

 

Since today's update to RC build 2189, I do not have Fontana and Gateway anymore in my game.

 

Do you own the Racin USA Part3 DLC?

 

Is there a current value of how much downforce they lose? Is it a fixed amount or different for each car?

 

i think they are still free for everyone until the official release of Racin' USA Part 3, unless i'm mistaken.

 

Idk if it's normal since the C9 is supposed to be better as far as I know but on Hockenheim '88 they are massively faster than the Porsches on the straight, in my 962 it was so hopeless I felt like I was in a lower class.

 

I had the lights working ok for a while then suddenly they stopped in pc/red mode as it should.
Had to go to fanatec panel and 'test' .Lights tested ok. so switched to off and back to on . restart pc/steam and all working as should in pc mode. ie its a fanatec control panel thing.(I dont use fanalab only the basic panel

 

came across this beautiful picture of old Spa somewhere

 

I saw someone mention it earlier, but I also have no access to Gateway and Auto Club now with the new release candidate, and I know for a fact I own the Racin' USA Pt. 3 since I have the season pass.

 

Hm, thanks, will try that. LED test works fine in control panel in both modes, just wasn't picked up by the game in native. Before I've tried only restarting steam and cleaning the AMS2 config in Documents (didn't help). I will try power-cycling the base next time. Compat mode works flawlessly...
