Car Used: Ginetta G40 Cup and quite a few other cars.
Applicable Settings: Texture Settings / Resolution ULTRA. 5120x1440 super ultra-wide monitor.

@Heitor Facuri Cicoti @steelreserv
Despite being madly in love with the simulator, the issue of wheels not respecting the "hide steering wheel" setting on some cars is getting a little ridiculous... As a programmer and someone with lots of 3D software experience myself, that should be a very easy fix, possibly tagging or changing the properties/metadata in the 3D package.

FYI - This issue has been reported many times...
F-v10 Gen 1
Ginetta G40

Happens at Jerez too.

 

Track: Random
Car: Random
Applicable settings: race with more than 15 participants.
Report: AMS2 would not show P1 during race on TV tower, at finish P2 won race by exactly 1s after finishing behind P1.

This has happened before, usually right at race start. P1 shows as p5 at lights out, and p2 shows as p1.

 

Exactely so, i did observed this too, there should be 2 buttons, "increase turbo power" and "decrease turbo power" in the assignement page.

 

Track & Layout Used: longbeach
Car Used: GT1 and GTE
Applicable Settings: multiclass race
Report: The GT1 cars start behind the GTEs, despite being 7s faster a lap.

 

Track & Layout Used: Silverstone (Modern GP Layout)
Car Used: Caterham Academy
Applicable Settings: Practice in Multiplayer
Report:. After the first few Corners on the straight there is a wall thats not solid. Its the Wall from the Bridge. You can Fall down there by just driving through the Wall! Both sides are not Solid.

 

Track & Layout Used: First and second races in formula classic gen 1 base championship mode
Car Used: Formula classic gen 1. Any of the cars.
Applicable Settings: 15 to 19 opponents, tyres 5x and 3x both tried, fuel use real and 5x both tried, damage performance impacting at 25%, race distance 30%, real time progression, mechanical failures set to on, AI aggression 65, AI skill 70 and 75 both tried. Also now tried with 80% AI skill. And with mechanical failure off. And with tyres usage as accelerated. All end up with exact same results. Very frustrating.
Report: I’ve tried these multiple times in the base championship mode and same result every time. At the first two races. The Brazil first race and the Jerez second race. Every time the AI’s start dropping out around lap 11 to 15. By lap 15 they are all retired. It is really frustrating and I have seen post from two years ago of the same issue. Can someone please have a look and fix. As a new player to the game I think it is quite possibly the best sim around, but this bug is a big problem. I’ve never gone past race 2 as I don’t want to do all the races with all AI retired by lap 15.

Thanks

 

Track & Layout Used: Monaco (Azure)
Car Used: Superkart
Applicable Settings: Normal, dry, Monaco weather
Report: No cooling on engine.
Steps to reproduce: Drive the superkart for a few (4-8) laps and notice the engine overheat to a point it starts deteriorating rapidly. Unable to finish a race unless driving very conservatively or pitting to repair engine.

 

track:kyalami
car used:mclaren mp4/12
applicable settings: time trial
reportsw wheel receiving full power after restarting session after smash ,this was very scarey and dangerous situation
I shut the session down and tried again ,same thing wheel had high power again lucky i had my hand ready for the emergency stop
To resolve the problem i had to shut the game down and restart ,but am very aware of this now hopefully it does not happen again

 

In many car classes, the AI achieve same laptimes in race as in qualifying. Can be frustrating for the player who is not able to do so because of carrying much more fuel during race.

 

Track & Layout Used: Monza 1991
Car Used: Formula Retro Gen 3 (also happens with other open wheelers)
Applicable Settings: Race
Report: HUGE carnage after start in T1 caused by AI.
Unable to have a proper overtake on the inside, they all pretend on going on the ideal line in the braking zone before chicane, ramming each other (and the human player when being in the middle of the pack) like madmen, no one ever steps back. Gets even worse because of the strange lateral moves they are doing all the time.
Later on in race, when they have their side by side duells for ages, this ramming happens again and again there.
If damage is switched on to a higher level, the majority of the field has to retire quite soon because of that demolition derby.
Things like that happen on other tracks, too, but it is worst in Monza 91. No matter if player uses customized AI or not, it has something to do with the general AI behaviour.

Edit: It can be fun and immersive if such mass collisions occur from time to time. But when it happens all the time on a certain spot after start, it gets dull and annoying.

 

I found this bug on the new update.
Car: Formula USA Gen 1. - Reynard 98i Mercedes-Benz

 

OS: Windows 10, latest version.
Version: V1.3.4
Track & Layout Used: N/A
Car Used: Mercedes GT3
Applicable Settings: Test Day
Report: Pick the yellow livery, car starts with a red livery which doesn't even exist.



Perhaps, I just secretly revealed a new upcoming livery... looks good regardless.

 

Track & Layout Used: I only tried at Goiania & Interlagos but probably happens at any track
Car Used: Stock Car 2021 #111 Barrichello
Applicable Settings: na
Report: livery doesn't show up, instead i get an all red livery
Steps to reproduce: pick Stock Car 2021 #111 Barrichello livery

 

Track and Layout used: Montreal 1988 (Happens on every track though)
Car used: Mclaren MP4-1C (happens on all manual gearbox formula cars)
Applicable settings:test day
Report: Auto lift doesn't work with auto clutch on in old formula cars. I reported this issue in the discussion thread after update 1.3.3.0 and one of the Reiza staff told me that this is unintended and the game should be auto lifting.
Steps to reproduce: Upshift on any manual gearbox formula car.

 

Track & Layout Used: Interlagos
Car Used: Porsche 911 GT3
Applicable Settings: Enable mechanical failures in an online lobby. Force default setups.
Report: The car engine abruptly gains temperature (about 1°C per second or faster) and suddenly blows. There were people complaining the car's engine reached more than 230°C and still raising.
Steps to reproduce: Just race an online lobby in Interlagos with Porsche GT3 (Did not happened with everyone, were just some cases) with default setups

 

There are several cars in this class now which are all red.

Edit: Here is another video showing this bug.

 

Just some feedback on the 1995 season cars:

Actual full season entries (27):
Lola-Ford 9
Lola-Mercedes 4
Penske-Mercedes 3
Reynard-Ford 9
Reynard-Honda 1
Reynard-Mercedes 1

AMS2 cars (23):
Lola-Ford 4
Lola-Mercedes 10
Reynard-Ford 4
Reynard-Honda 1
Reynard-Mercedes 4

I respect the fact that these were rushed out, but a few notes:
- Makes sense that the Penskes are represented by Reynards to balance out the field
- The #22 car exists in both Lola-Ford and Reynard-Mercedes cars
- On the #14 Lola-Merc it says Ford on the car
- On the #31 Lola-Merc it says Honda on the car
- On the #33 Lola-Merc it says Ford on the car
- In real full season the Lola-Ford's out ranked Lola-Mercedes 9 to 4, but in AMS2 they are the opposite 4 to 10. This will be a problem when making realistic skin packs. May I suggest switching this to better reflect the 1995 season?
- Maybe have 2 Reynard-Hondas: Johnstone+Ribeiro

 

CART 95:

The previews for cars # 21 and 22 of the 95i Mercedes are missing. And the cars are called Reynard 98i Mercedes Benz in the showroom. Obviously, there is some mix up/typo.
