    The game is crashing to desktop anytime I leave a practice session on any track. This has happened on the historic GT cars, the new F1-style cars, and the 2005 GT cars. Not sure what's going on but this seems to be happening to lots of folks.

    I heard the F-USA 2023 is giving issues to some.

    As a temporary workaround, you can try to rename your (Documents)/Automobilista 2 folder (so that you keep it as a backup). A new "Automobilista 2" folder will then be created, and track/car selection will reset to Stock Car @ Interlagos.

    Personally, I'd rather just wait for a hotfix, so that I don't have to configure all my settings from scratch.

    Hi,

    I can't reproduce this. Do you have more information for me?

    I'm going to try a fresh install since this is happening with any car on any track when I do a Free Practice session and click Exit in the top left after a couple of laps. It gives me the bugsplat message and crashes to desktop. This only started after the most recent update today.

    They didn't, but the sound that went along with the exhaust blown diffusers is very much present. Whether the game is simulating blown aero at the back with the little monkey seat element in front of the exhaust or just the cylinder cut used to save fuel without the aero blowing, I don't know, but that sound is 100% present and it absolutely isn't the hybrid.

    Just check file integrity in Steam instead of a reinstall.

    I just did this and now the game boots to the main menu. I saved the folder as a backup, so I'll place it back after a fix.

    You've any mods installed? If so please delete those, alternatively try:
    As a temporary workaround, you can try to rename your (Documents)/Automobilista 2 folder (so that you keep it as a backup). A new "Automobilista 2" folder will then be created, and see if this fixes your issue.

    Please keep in mind this is not troubleshooting-topic. I am in contact with my colleague's regarding the CTDs

    Hi, I love the new formulas they are really fun to drive.
    Just one opinion, inestead of the vertical bar being the rpm, It would't been better to display the battery %?

    Thank you

    The F-USA 2023 (with the 2024 skin name pack) car chosen, the game will crash if I choose Laguna seca or long beach.

    Not sure if it's relevant, but I played the stock F-HYRBID GEN 1 at Monaco with no issue. So I'm not sure if this is limiting to the FUSA cars.

    A completely fresh install including removing the documents folder and steam folders resolved the issue. I know this probably doesn't help you figure out what caused it, but I'm back in business now.

    Sorry I know you said this wasnt a troubleshooting topic, but when you says mods, do you mean skins pack as well as cars and tracks added??

    Yes, all mods, but I would first do the AMS2-folder trick and a verify cache.

    Formula Edge does not utilize its custom-AI file (named FE-G1.xml) at low- & high-downforce tracks. This oddity is not an issue with the Formula Ultimate Hybrid Gen1 class, which utilizes its custom-AI file across all downforce variants..

    With Formula Edge, no custom-AI drivers are displayed at Monza (LD) and Monaco (HD), for example. At Interlagos '93, the FE_G1.xml custom-AI file works fine, as it is a standard downforce track.
