Automobilista 2 V1.4.8.1 & Circuit de Barcelona Catalunya Officially RELEASED!

Yea, I can't get it to work either. Don't know what I'm messing up.

 

ever thought about a stick extension to steer more precisely

 

I tested the Brabham BT52 today and even if i enjoyed the ride i have to admit i was struggling with the default setup at first. The default setup is not really convenient as the front locks up too much. By just moving the brake bias from 57/43 to 50/50 the car is suddenly much more driveable.

 

using the chase cam and rotating it to a specific angle does make a sound bug on the f junior here

 

I tested all the cars with 1.5 physics. All nice. I'm only really missing AI tire wear. In F-Ultimate Gen2 is hard to keep the pace with AI running in softs the entire race without any pit stop, even in a Race with real laps number.

 

In my case, as soon as I change the camera view the sound gets muffled, no matter the driving view. It happens when changing the camera view only, but stays muffled thereafter until the session is finished.

 

I tried the MP4/4 from Classic Gen 2 at Imola 88, and that car seems to be spot on in all performance measures. The BT52 from Retro Gen 3 gives me the impression of being too fast on a straightline, but I don't have reliable top speed data of it.

 

I'm getting problems with the Mandatory Pitstops - probably with the new "min tyres" option. Even if I stop and change all 4 tyres, I get a DQ for not stopping, as do many of the AI, despite them also stopping.

 

Well, in the bottom picture the top element of the wing is taller - compare the letters C, a, o

Also, in the picture the second element seems taller - or maybe not - not sure.

And then in the bottom picture there is also the black rear wing detail creating a very small see through area, whereas in the top picture the see through area is big.

 

Noticed the flowing on the new build:

FFB is very granny now. There is a vibration on slownspeed corners when the wheel feta heavier. Tested with f1 Gen2 and fusa23 at Barcelona on ffb default.

Fusa23 tire colours is not working. Tried changing tires in the menu settings and in the pits during a race, both failed to show the correct colours. Gen2 tires work fine.

 

The formula Junior is a blast around many tracks, but the excellent physics have made me wonder why the demo hasn't been updated in a while. After all, this leads to a wrong impression of the status of ams2 and could potentially repel many people.

 

Welll ... I just set the setup to "symmetrical" both on the first and on the second page of the setup screen.

And after doing that and therefore having a completely symmetrical setup, the car continued to pull to the left in an irregular manner. Does that have something to do with the shape of the tires, or could it be that there is some sort of suspension bug in this car?

 

OK I have to admit I did not know that, but oval racing never was my forte to begin with...

Still surprising to me that continuously applying the same amount of countersteer on a straight doesn't work in this car, but as I said, ovals are not my forte.

 

It's happened in every race that I've set mandatory pit stops with a min tyre value (probably 4 or 5 races) over the past couple of days since the RC update with that option available.

I've only been racing those cars that have the 1.5 physics, so all of the races will have involved the various F1 Classic Gen 1-4 cars and maybe also the Formulas Inter and Junior.

My most recent race was, I think, Classic Gen 4 @ Jacarepagua 1988, 8 laps, dry conditions (ranging from light cloud to haze), default tyres.

I think one of the races where it occurred was Santa Cruz in the Formula Inters (also various dry conditions and probably about 6-8 laps).
