Automobilista bug report thread (Please read the opening post)

Track & Layout Used: Jacarepaguá historic 2005 oval
Car Used: Formula Ultimate Gen2
Applicable Settings:
Report: returning to pit spawns car inside pit barriers resulting in damaged rear suspension
Steps to reproduce: Start a session and return to pit

 

Track & Layout Used: Brands Hatch Indy
Car Used: F309
Applicable Settings: dedicated server with 2 real drivers and 18 ai
Report: ai drivers skipped checkpoints, leading to them being multiple laps down. In the result files, sector times were 60 seconds instead of the normal 20 or so that they were doing on most laps.
Steps to reproduce: during every race session

 

2 or 3 of my personal best laptimes in the past day or 2 did not get updated in the Time Trial records list. I was using the Karts - Rental on different variations of the Granja Viana circuit. The lap record does show in my own personal AMS best laps list (in-game) and even shows up during the loading screen when loading the Time Trial session but doesn't actually show up in the public Time Trial records list. Other laps have shown up in the list so it does work sometimes - most of the times - but there's been 2 or 3 times where it didn't work.

Also, VirtualXperience.net is having the same issue. Some of my new best laps have shown up on their site the past day or 2 but others have not even though they show up in AMS itself.

Strange coincidence that both AMS itself and VirtualXperience are both sometimes (not all the time) breaking when it comes to updating their TT records.

 

I'm using triple 55' screen setup and they wrap around with a FOV of approx 210 degrees.

This causes some of the UI buttons on the top left or top right to be a little behind me. I have to wring my neck to see them.

Also, during replays the Drivers' list is on the far left of the left screen, the replay controls are on top of the left screen and the driver information is partially on the top of the center screen flowing over to the top of the right screen. This is also a similar problem at the end of a Session, where the "Waiting for Host" is in the middle of the right hand screen.

Is it possible to have all UI buttons and information on the center screen like RaceRoom, RF2, ACC, etc.

 

Not sure if this is a bug or some sort of issue with your PC / setup. I have triples and the replay controls are on the bottom of the center screen rather than the top of the left screen.

 

After update AMS2 dumped all my wheelbases settings and assignments, which were perfect. did not recognize my wheel input flagging “multiple inputs”. I was able to get a hack to work to get the wheel to work. now the Shifters are recognized when assigned, but in game do not work. Clutch works, but car will not get out of first gear.
All of the wheel buttons show up in assignments correctly, but do NOT work in game unless I re assign them.

 

Selecting a Pit Strategy to replace only Rear Tyres, replaces all 4. But at the speed of only replacing 2.

In the V8 Supercar, it usually takes around 16 seconds to replace all 4 tyres.
I created a Pit Strategy to replace only the rears, which should take around 10 seconds.
Upon entering the pits, the stop only took 10 seconds, but all 4 tyres were changed. This was replicated by someone else in my MP server.


Track & Layout Used: Jerez Moto
Car Used: SuperV8
Applicable Settings: Utilising Pit Strategy to replace only rear tyres
Report: As Above
Steps to reproduce: Create a Pit Strategy to replace rear soft slick tyres only (No fuel, Damage). Enter the pits with this strategy selected. All 4 were replaced, but in the time to replace 2.

 

Track & Layout Used: Any
Car Used: Any Catherham Car.
Applicable Settings: n/a
Report: Completley ruined after today's patch. Lost grip totally. Running horrible, like over butter. No FFB at all almost.
Steps to reproduce: Just drive it on any track.

 

Automobilista hasn't been patched for a few years now. If you mean AMS2, better to post in the AMS2 forum.

Wrong game section. Also an easy fix. Do a steam file verification. It’ll fix the file corruption.

Report: Automobilista does not recognize my Fanatec CSL Elite PS4/PC wheel. While it works perfectly fine with AMS2 with exactly the same configuration (and many other sims). Any of the buttons or steering input just do not register with the game, like the wheel and pedals are unplugged.

Tried to restart the game and hardware, also tried different available wheel profiles and devices (controller, joystick, etc) - no change.

Please help, I can't seem to find a problem.

EDIT: a few weeks later it just fixed "itself" when my pedals decided they want to start working separately from the wheelbase (they were plugged directly to PC but never really had this issue until I made a few PC restarts). Fanatec software is pretty laggy... Glad it worked, it's an awesome sim!

 

Track & Layout Used: n/a
Car Used: Formula Retro Gen 3 Turbo
Applicable Settings: n/a
Game Build: V1.4.3.3.2213.AVX
Report: Left front tire tread and carcass animations move in opposite directions. It's just a slight visual bug that's been around for several update cycles.

 

I don't know if any bug reports are looked at these days for AMS1, but I found a simple one which could be fixed in a minute and makes a big difference.

Track & Layout Used: n/a
Car Used: Mini Challenge
Applicable Settings: n/a
Game Build: latest
Report:
The talent file is named wrongly in the SRS file (REIZA04.srs), so the drivers do not use the talent files at all.
It is currently named DriversDir=GAMEDATA\TALENT\MINI\, when it should actually be named DriversDir=GAMEDATA\TALENT\Mini_Challenge\

Is it possible to do a quick correction for anyone that is still enjoying these great cars in AMS1?

Cheers

Wrong forum, but this issue is known and has already been reported in the AMS 2 bug thread. Thanks, though!

 

Oh, it's the old AMS ... I see.
