Track & Layout Used: Brands Hatch indy
Car Used: Caterhams 270/360/720
Applicable Settings: Gyazo - be846b83b6cb1101d93e8874076a1734.png

Steps to reproduce: drive car and/or watch replay

 

caterham: 270 - 360R
in cockpit view you do not see the headlights.

Metalmoro:
After this update the edges of the windshield and side windows are very jagged.

Boxer cup:
overnight the rear lights of other cars you see very little and the fascia of the windshield sun visor is lit as if it were day.

The clutch and manual transmission to h:

Boys Reiza I ask you, please, this is really the only thing I find disappointing in this great simulator, ie, when changing gears is easier to make mistakes in the game than that on a real machine (personally in real life I learned to drive on the old Fiat 500 with the unsynchronized transmission, so blip, toe and heel mandatory) right now the clutch is far from reality, with the pedals of the g27 if you do not press the pedal all the way you can not change, the clutch detached or attached only to the bottom of the pedal stroke.
in reality it happened during a trip that broke the cable clutch in my car, with the engine off I inserted the first gear, I started the engine and I got home, changing gears without clutch.
AMS, at any engine speed, without pressing the clutch, the gearbox does not work, this is absolutely unreal!

would be nice if: until the change to h has reached a development if not the same, but at least very close to reality, the menu of options you could choose the gear h mode: Advanced mode or normal mode as it was before.

what I wrote just wants to be a constructive criticism, he does not want to offend against anyone

Delta timing bar (already reported in beta). Works for first session, but not subsequent ones. Exit game and re-enter and it will once again work for the first session.

 

Track & Layout Used: Brands Hatch
Car Used: Ultima GTR Race
Applicable Settings: -
Report: It is impossible to adjust the refuel amount during the race. Also, the auto pit stop seems to release the car too early, causing a penalty if the player accelerate immediatey.
More info and screenshot: Can't adjust refuel load and drive through penalty despite auto pitlane

 

Track & Layout Used: All
Car Used: All
Applicable Settings: Private Qual (multiplayer)
Report: Spotter working in private qual when opponent in same place but you alone on track
More info and screenshot:

 

Track & Layout Used: Oulton Park Internacional
Car Used: F3
Applicable Settings: Race
Report: AI crash on second chicane
More info and screenshot: in this barrier

 

Track & Layout Used: Granja Viana (Layout1)
Car Used: Karts
Applicable Settings: All sesions
Report: Incorrect track limit at turn 6 (i think its the 6)

 

Track & Layout Used: Brands Hatch GP
Car Used: Any car
Applicable Settings: Multiplayer with ~5 or more players online.
Report: All opponents disappear and the server locks up completely after a random period of time.
More info: At an unpredictable time, the server will lock up or crash, however you are still able to drive around on it, but all of the other players on the server are not visible. When I try to normally close the AMSdedicated.exe it completely locks up and I have to force close it with the task manager. This only seems to happen with Brands Hatch. Unsure if it also happens with the Indy layout. This is kind of a game breaking bug as it's not possible to race on Brands Hatch.

 

Track & Layout Used: Oulton Park International
Car Used: MCR 2000
Applicable Settings: Race
Report: DQ when off the circuit at T4 (Island bend) for no apparent reason
More info and screenshot: When running in our club race, I was DQ'd for no apparent reason when running off circuit and into the barrier at T4. There was no 'wrong way' message and the DQ came up very suddenly. I was running in the race direction the whole time (though on the grass) but never spun around or ran in the opposite direction at any time during the off.

 

I need to blip the throttle on downshifts with the Superkart.
Is this a bug ?

 

Track & Layout Used: Any
Car Used: Any
Applicable Settings: /
Report: The ''Driving off road, lap discarded'' warning has no effect.
It does not discard the lap - the timing does not stop as it does when the spotter
reminds you of the off track.
Appears like there's one cut detection system too many running atm..

 

Track & Layout Used: Cordoba
Car Used: Ultima Race Car
Applicable Settings: Offline, using auto pit
Report: Did a 35 mins race at Cordoba and during a pit stop the ai keeps on hitting other cars after they leave their pit box.

 

Track & Layout Used: Multiple and intermittent, but see attachment for evidence
Car Used: Multiple and intermittent, but see attachment for evidence
Applicable Settings: N/A
Report: XML missing sector and lap times
Steps to reproduce: Intermittent, but see this for example and I am seeing quite often so can provide as many examples as you want. My perception, at least is happening every 2 out of 5 races or thereabouts.

The following is excerpt from linked file above which contains missing times. I'd also like to reiterate and receive acknowledgement via an agree to this post that non-standard XML (i.e. space used in tags) is also an issue.

Formula Classic:

Selection of analogue or digital dash results in digital dash in the car.

Description says 6-speed H-pattern, but transmission behaves as a sequential, requiring clutch only to get moving in 1st gear. Cockpit graphics may show sequential shifter...hard to tell.

 

Further to my report of the mismatching rpms on the Montana, there are some other similar situations where the in-cockpit visual display of the rpm on the dash indicator does not match the HUD rpm indication. Those cars are:

Formula V12
Montana (bar chart)
Catherham 360R
Catherham 620R
Lancer X
Formula Vintage (this one is minor and may be on purpose trying to replicate a slightly inaccurate tachometer of the 1960's?)

 

Track & Layout Used: Brands Hatch
Car Used: Any Car
Applicable Settings: Internet Multiplayer with 1 other online player and 5+ AI added
Report: When I've hosted an online session with 1 friend joined, I add 5+ AI to the game and for the connected online friend, their PC locks up and Automobilista Freezes.
( Also freezing bug repeated with 1 friend and no AI when qualifying is selected )
Tested and on different computers with brands hatch and always the connected party's computer freezes when selecting qualifying or adding 5+ AI to the session.
Steps to reproduce: Online hosted session with Brands Hatch, have 1 player connect to session. Either add 5+ AI to session or Go to qualifying.

 

Which layout @Fred Crowe ?

 

Track & Layout Used: Any track with multiple layouts where you have set a time at a shorter layout
Car Used: Any car
Applicable Settings: N/A
Report: PB lap time is reporting lap time from a shorter layout (presumably because PB not layout-specific).
Steps to reproduce: Load longer layout of track and PB from shorter track will display.

 

Track & layout: Jac. Oval
Car used: All
App settings : 4k, max
Report: Game freezes/really low fps(like zero) on race restart.
Only happens on this version of this track.
First race start, all is good and get 60fps no problem but if i restart the race it freezes.
Also when initially starting the game, after the Reiza intro the load screen that says Automobilista and shows the cars and the title is grey and dark, cant really see it. I think its always bedn like that.
Lastly, i always get low fps while driving the Boxer when right up behind the car in front. Only happens when right up behind. I can have a full 22 car Boxer grid and get 60fps but basically touch the car in front and get 35fps.
Ive reported this all before and am just wondering if this i being looked into? And if there is any chance of a fix?
