Featured Automobilista 2 V1.6.8.5, Historical Track Pack Pt3 & Historical Endurance Pack Pt1 RELEASED!

NAMeS is designed to work with the default Reiza liveries. Its mission is to provide Day One conversions of all fictional driver names in AMS2 into drivers who actually raced the cars in reality.

I have no doubt that the recent 2005 content will inspire plenty of modders to create awesome sets of custom livery & AI mods for the new endurance cars. NAMeS is simply there to plug [all] the gaps in naming [for as long as needed] until that day arrives.

 

The update ist a 10/10 but for me but TAA is a little diappointing in VR.
I lose 10% of FPS compared to MSAA medium as described by @TheCasualDriver which is strange since TAA should always be more performant.
AND everytime I turn my head there is half a second without any antialiasing so my picture constantly changes from slightly blurry (okay for me) to extremly sharp and pixelated after moving. strange!!
I use 0 sharpening in the VR software and tried different ingame TAA sharpening settings but it did not help.

edit: Since others seem to be happy it cloud be a problem with my nvidia settings. Feel free to move this to a bug or VR thread.

 

Career mode was announced for some unspecific 2026 timeline. And i think no point making releasing a career mode yet when there are still AI fixes and improvements made with every update and also new cars and tracks still to be added.

What do you mean "All the online issues" ? Being vague and just writing "There is a problem pls fix" is NOT helpful to anyone especially not the devs. I have been playing AMS2 for over 3 years now and the list of fixes has been big and especially severe ones that i had no hope for improving anymore were squashed. And what do you mean by "gameplay finished" ?

The question of "When are all the bugs going to be resolved" ... never, there does not exist a single videogame that would have every single existing bug fixed because it is impossible to fix absolutely everything in existence. Best Reiza can do is have the community report on how a bug happens and how to reproduce it so they can fix it faster, which like i said they done many, many times over the years with every single update.

If you want to help fix bugs faster you can post information about them here:
Bug Reports - Automobilista 2 (Read the Opening Post)

When it comes to options added i recommend using this section:
The Feature Request Thread...

 

GPLaps is great, always seems like a really genuine guy and very knowledgeable.

 

If they add Saleen, Lister Storm, Panoz and Milano 55.. it'll be the GTR2 sequel we have been waiting for.

 

He's one of my favourite parasocial relationships!

 

I'm enjoying the new AI, they're definitely a lot better than they were, but I still think there's a way to go with them.
They're a lot better now at fighting, they pull nice defensive moves, and I've had a few moments where they've actually stuck a move around the outside!

They still need some tuning in terms of not getting stuck nose to tail when battling each other, and their insatiable desire to be on the racing line, to the point that I watched an entire GT3 field take the exact same line through a corner, nose to tail, on lap 1.
Not a single one tried making a move on another.
It was like one long worm of GT3s.
And their rejoining behaviour when they've made a mistake and fallen off the track needs work. They do that weird slingshot back onto the track, usually causing another crash in doing so.

But overall a big improvement!
Very much enjoying racing against them.
Hoping to see more developments in this area

 

The GT1 is probably one of the best class in the game. More of this please.

 

All of these points have been addressed previously and recently, you've been a member of the forum since 2017 so I'm sure you won't have missed them if you're lurking.

 

After this update car data no longer includes speed. Is this an ommision or done on purpose?

 

Road Atlanta 2005 Short in the new GT2's, that is so good, especially the Femilanorrari

 

The enduro 2005 preset only loads a few cars. Away from my pc now to confirm what exactly is missing but probably half of each car class field is missing.

 

Guys, this update is mega, thanks to reiza, i want the game being supported and developped for the next 15 years !

 

Question, but as a paddock pass owner, do I need to pay for the historical endurance content? Right now, it doesn't say I own in my library on Steam

 

Free weekend

 

Ahhh, I see. That explains

 

I wasn't expecting much from historic road Atlanta due to the similar layout, but it really feels different when you are driving there, and the short layout is quite a nice surprise, very very fun.

I said it before but I could play a bit more today and I need to say it again: the details of the cars interiors is crazy, it feels soooo alive in VR, I don't remember now which car (too many ) have a few cables moving with the movements of the car and it feels just so realistic that I was extremely immersed.

On the negative side, I also expected something else from TAA in VR. No matter the sharpening I use, the distant stuff is blurry.

 

Which begs the question: when will AI be good enough for a career mode?

Or... what would be considered a good enough AI to have a career mode?
