Bug Reports - Automobilista 2 (Read the Opening Post)

These kind of physics bugs cheapen the game and makes it less credible IMO:

Is it possible to do some work on the collision physics engine? It seems something is going wrong when racing against the AI. Like seen in this video, the physics freeze for a split second and then the cars start bouncing around.

 

Track & Layout Used: Any (Spa)
Car Used: Cadillac DPi
Applicable Settings: Allow pit refuelling
Report: Allowing pit refueling STILL doesn't work!
Steps to reproduce: Try to pit to refuel DOESN'T WORK

I set pit stop refuelling YES and do my race strategy. Then in the actual race, the ICM the option to refuel it's just blacked out and no fuel is ever put in.

Please delete this restriction from the game and delete the code that disables it from the codebase so it never ever gets disabled again. It serves no purpose whatsoever. No one ever wants to do a race where refuelling is disabled. It is a pointless feature.

 

Since latest update to 1.2.4.2, I can not join any MP session anymore. When I klick on "Join", nothing happens. Never had this issue before.

Edit: Today it works again. Must have been something on my side (I don't know what, though).

 

No mirrors when playing multiplayer in VR in the P1 Chevy. Fine in single player.

 

V1.2.4.3

The windshield wipers on the BMW 2002 are invisible from the cockpit view. You can see them working from the outside view during reply, but they are invisible inside the car.

 

Sound for the 2002 turbo is odd! The old BMW 2.0 Liter 4 Cylinders had a very distinc roar from 4000 upwards, and an acaording exhaust note. Both is missing. The exhaust side is quite too silent. The turbo whine is much to predominant in the soundscape and reminds me of the the one in the Detroit Diesel engines from vintage caterpillar bulldozers. In generel, the egine soudn reminds me a bit to much of the FIAT Ritmo 1.5, with a diesel truck turbocharger attached to it.
In idle rev, the engine is not audible at all in extrior view, just like the Camaros and a few other cars in ASM2.

 

Track & Layout Used: Any
Car Used: Any
Applicable Settings: Mandatory pit stop ON.
Report: Pit window open in the same lap that is close.
Steps to reproduce: Custom Championship with Mandatory pit stop ON.

In a Custom championship (any combo of vehicle/tracks) with Mandatory pit stop ON, the mandatory pit window OPEN is in the SAME LAP that the pit window CLOSE, usually in the last two laps (as a result all pilots disqualified at the end race).
This only happens in custom championship, in single race is OK, the mandatory pit window open in lap two.

Track & Layout Used: VIRginia International Raceway North
Car used: BMW 2002 Turbo
Report: Using the free camera while playing the replay there was this bug on the BMW 2002 Turbo

 

Was that using the free camera while using one of the cockpit camera views? If so then the car model doesn't include elements that are not visible from inside the car - such as the rear wheels, much of the rear body, and so on.

 

i was using the ROOF camera .. thanks a lot for the information, i didn't know

Again, today. I've selected 101L for fuel, tires and no damage fix. I call the pits, the pits are scheduled, I stop, they change the tires and no fuel.
I've give another lap super slow to get to the pits again, pits are scheduled, only fuel this time... and nothing, pit stop looks like a stop and go and I have to retire.

Congrats, Reiza. 18 months after.

Report: excess camera shake in cockpit view leaving pits
Steps to reproduce: Start a race with a practice session and manual pitstops set to No. In cockpit view there is excessive camera shake leaving the pits.

Experienced this in a multi-player race where manual pitstops was forced to off.

What's the problem, Luke Skywalker used something like that about 50 years ago

 

How to activate free cam?

Thank you very much for answering Dave, and sorry for my english.

The problem is not whith the player (me), the pit board works well.
The problem is whith the AI.
The info of pit window open is from CrewChief, at start says "Pit window open in lap X",
on "X" always is in two laps after finish.
Then, when start the last lap is when ALL cars stop for mandatory pit stop in the same moment, and a few cars are disqualify because not enough space in pit.

This happens only in custom championships, I have not tried in default championships.

Thk for the help.
