Bug Reports - Automobilista 2 (Read the Opening Post)

The funny thing, in the first 10th second there is spray visible (without performance issue), then it disappears till the car comes closer to the track-cam.

 

May or may not be reported yet
Version: 1.2.1.4 current main
Track and Layout Used: Spielbergh 74 Online {maybe others. likely}
Cars:GTe GT1
Report Whilst monitoring during Q
Switching cams cockpit/chase Camera stays in chase.

 

Track & Layout Used: any
Car Used: GTE, GT3, most likely on porsches
Applicable Settings: Broadcast or Monitoring modes, both online
Report:
We are facing a ugly visual bug on almost every transmission of our league that all cars keep shaking indefinitely, mostly the porsches on GTE and GT3 categories, but happens too on other cars less often. This happens on any track that we tested, and any camera, including onboard, which makes impossible to watch. That bug is very annoying for media content creators trying to promote this sim for its audience.

There are here a couples of examples:

This AMS 2 problem is really annoying. I participate in some races and invite friends and acquaintances to watch. But it's a total embarrassment, because during the races the cars go shivering around the track or stand shivering in the pits. Very ugly and strange that. One more problem to solve. Thanks.

 

Es una pena que habiendo un gran trabajo de fondo y con coches tan lindos sigan estos problemas que empañan este gran simulador.

 

Sorry ignore this. Now I have watch gt4 race and obviously track in game is equal to latest state of the track. However I liked more version with astroturf in Les Combes

 

In the car setup screen > suspension tab > steering lock, the description at the bottom is incorrect, it talks about steering ratio, it should describe steering lock (how many degrees the front wheels of the car turn).

 

Great work on the 66 mini Reiza awsome that you are all listening

 

I think speaking about ratio is correct, but the description doesn't reflect the working correct.

"A higher Steering Ratio increases the amount of steering wheel movement needed" should be
"A higher Steering Ratio decreases the amount of steering wheel movement needed"
and
"Decreasing the ratio will give more responsive steering, decreasing the amount....." must be
"Increasing the ratio will give more responsive steering, decreasing the amount...."
and
the degrees unit designation isn't correct, it should be a value without unit designation

 

Changing how many degrees the front wheels turn will change the car's steering ratio but that's not what the setting is about in AMS2 and that can confuse people. The steering lock setting in AMS2 changes how much the front wheels turn (eg: steering lock = 14 means the front wheels will turn 14 degrees, it doesn't affect how much the in-car steering wheel turns), lower setting = front wheel turns less and make steering less sensitive and vice-versa; so the description should say that.
In PCars1/2 there's a steering ratio setting (eg: steering ratio = 20.0:1 means for every 20 degrees you turn the in-car steering wheel the front wheels of the car will turn 1 degree), higher setting makes steering less sensitive and vice-versa.

 

Bug on the new 1.2.2 update. When creating a new custom championship you can't set the time for practice and qualifying, even if you set a time it defaults to the race start time and in session they start at the same time as the race.

 

Version: 1.2.2.0 but same issue since the car was in the game
Track & Layout Used: any
Car Used: Mini JCW
Applicable Settings: cockpit view
Report: Audio click repeating every few seconds
Steps to reproduce: Drive the Mini on track and among the sounds is a periodic short click. Could it be one of the audio samples doesn't have a smooth looping point?

 

Version: 1.2.2.0
Track & Layout Used: any
Car Used: any
Applicable Settings: any
Report: DualShock4 Gamepad has a deadzone of approximately 5-7, even if it is set to zero.
Steps to reproduce: Just start the game, create a custom controller set with DS4 and move the left stick very slightly. The game does not register that movement. Which completely and utterly ruins the whole gameplay experience, by the way. Driving on a controller is hard, you need precision for that and the deadzone makes precision absolutely impossible. PLEASE fix this, this is the equivalent of the game giving me the middle finger every time I want to play, and it's driving me insane.

EDIT: I solved it. It's still a bug though. When I had told the game I wanted to use "custom controller", in the background it still ran the settings for "Xbox controller", which were different for some reason. Pretty nasty little gremlin, because it's very difficult to discover.

 

Version: 1.2.2.0
Track & Layout Used: Jerez GP
Car Used: Caterham Supersport
Applicable Settings: any
Report: Incorrect results in multiplayer. I think the results for all the drivers will lock in when the winner drives to the finish line. So if you overtake second place after winner has finished, you are still third in results.
Steps to reproduce: Just race in multiplayer.

 

I purchased the full title a few weeks ago from this posting, so some of these issues may have been reported or on the list to fix? However this is what I myself have discovered. I enjoy the title though! Making great strides!
Track & Layout Used: (seems to happen in any track)
Car Used: any
Game version: 1.2.2.0.1753.avx
Applicable Settings: all that apply here
Report:
1. Pit crew shaking during pits, Auto Start Engine in menu is off but cars auto start.
2. When no repairs selected during pit... at times will perform a random repair ( time lost in the pit ), 3. New Porsche 911 RSR 1974 say's onboard brake bias available on car info screen b4 race, but when activated with assigned key, Pops up N/A (Not Available) does not work from the menu either, can only preset before race.
4. Second page on in race menu if I hit down to many times the menu continues to rise on screen ( just have to restart game to reset )
5. New Porsche 911 RSR 1974, the sudden rear end snap from nowhere during slow cornering without any extra wheel or throttle input seems odd to me too!
Steps to reproduce: drive another 27 or so lap race.

 

Version: 1.2.2.0
Track & Layout Used: Any
Car Used: Karting
Applicable Settings: any
Report: my controller is unsupported in the racing，flydigi Vader 2，sims xbox 360
Steps to reproduce: just start a race and you'll be desperate about that


hi developers,
i'm a fan of automobilista2 in China, i have a flydigi vader 2 controller which simulates xbox 360 controller on my win10 pc. But it is not supported in the game. Wish you could add the support of flydigi vader2 in automobilista2 thanks a lot!
Sincerely, Danny.

 

Version: 1.2.2.0
Track & Layout Used: any
Car Used: Superkart
Applicable Settings: any
Report: There is always a "damage sign" when you start with this vehicle. Also AI continues to be very bad in this kind of karts

 

hi danny.
you can configure your controller for AMS2 (or any other game that support controllers) via steam. several tutorial on web and vids on youtube
here is one

 

Version: 1.2.2.0
Track & Layout Used: Londrina Kart
Car Used: Kart Shifter 125cc
Report: Only in the replay the driver has some glitches in the image plus a wierd driver animation
Steps to reproduce: Just run a replay mode

 

Track & Layout Used: Hockenheimring (seems to happen with any track)
Car Used: Porsche GTE (seems to happen with any car)
Applicable Settings: Default 'Time Trial' Settings
Report: When playing in VR, frame rates vary drastically (~50% variance in my system) in Time Trial mode (maybe others too, but untested) from session to session despite identical/constant session settings (graphics fx, graphic performance, weather, time of day, car, track, etc). Frame rate range seems deterministic based on session start. For example: Session begins and frame rates start at 90 FPS and are maintained with very little fluctuation regardless of time spent on track in session, until session is exited. Then, if session is restarted without any changes made to anything, frame rates drop to 60 FPS with more intra-session FPS variability. CPU load seems drastically increased in these reduced FPS situations, despite staying in game the entire time. If I had to guess, about 25% of the time, I get the high-FPS state, and the rest of the time I get the low-FPS state.
Steps to reproduce: Boot up AMS2 in SteamVR mode, have fpsVR tool visible, setup graphic settings that push the GPU towards max utilization, but do not push CPU towards max, then select Time Trial mode, and try multiple sessions, either staying in game between session restarts/exits, or restarting game altogether.
