Bug Reports - Automobilista 2 (Read the Opening Post)

Game version: v1.4.3.3

car: camaro ss
Track: any
Applicable settings: autoclutch on

report: camaro ss interior shows an automatic gearbox with flappy paddles, but the car drives like a manual. If it is meant to drive like a manual, the car has clutch slippage on up-shifts.

 

Game version: 1.4.3.3
Track & Layout Used: n/a
Car Used: VW virtus + golf variants
Applicable Settings: vr
Report: driver shift animations are missing. Gear lever should be in sequential position.

 

Game version: 1.4.3.3
Track & Layout Used: all
Car Used: all
Applicable Settings: VR (Rift S), Supersampling at 1,5
Report: The HUD on the game mirrored screen doesn't display correctly (TV 1080p). Hud seems too big and doesn't match the screen. Although the map always stays on the top right, the rest of the hud goes off-screen towards the bottom right.

Also, in the HUD settings, you can't catch correctly (or at all) the different apps with the mouse, you need to use a gamepad.
Here's a video of the issue (sorry for my poor English) :

 

Track & Layout Used: Any
Car Used: Any
Applicable Settings: Default Setups = OFF / Fuel = OFF (preferably Multiplayer Lobby)
Report: Under these race settings cars still consumes fuel even if the race settings says fuel OFF.
Steps to reproduce: Set an online lobby with these settings. On qualifying, before leaving the box set your fuel to 1L in order to confirm fuel consumption.

This issue has been happening for several months now.
Any car in a race with settings "Default setups = OFF" in a "Fuel OFF" race can end up running out of fuel therefore retiring from the race.
On setups the driver can fuel up as much as one wants it before the race, however refueling won't be available / fuel option on Pit Strategy will appear as disabled.

Some players are taking advantage over this in ranked online lobbies for long races.
The user can set the race like this, fuel his tank up and just wait for anyone who believes that fuel consumption is OFF (because the race settings says it so) to end up retiring from the race.

"Fuel OFF" setting is working only if combined with "Default Setups ON".

 

Track & Layout Used: Any
Car Used: Stockcar 1999
Applicable Settings: Online (P2P or Dedicated)
Report: Crash to desktop with error "Failed to create dump file: (error 127)"
Steps to reproduce: Start an online event with the Stockcar 1999

 

It looks like a high ping related issue. That is my assumption. Maybe for him your car was flashing randomly on the track. The position of your car on track would be out of sync among the users. If you go to a lobby where everybody or most of the users show bad sign after their names you can assume you are logged in a server far away from your location. On this cases I recommend you to ask what country the host is located. Sometimes you can have issues like that or even be disconnected from the session when you playing in continents apart, unfortunately.

 

I raced with the same group with ACC today an it was buttery smooth even vs other cars with red pings and both were hosted via Just Race... So it's all down to the terrible prediction based in the p2p code...

In that incident the other driver didn't have me blinking all over the track either... We just had extremely different versions of the same corner because the prediction is just that terrible...

Racing drivers from around the world with more than 10 drivers and you are asking for trouble with AMS2's system... Pick the wrong server and you can't even race drivers from your own country cleanly...

I have had better online experiences with GTR2...

 

more bugs ,latest candidate several wins in ranked servers today ,my rating has not moved

 

Game also crashes to desktop when loading a Race Weekend or Test Day with Stockcar 1999.

 

Game version: 1.4.3.3
Track & Layout Used: Spa historic 1970
Car Used: F Ulti Gen1
Applicable Settings: TT

BUG: Unable to save setups. They save but disappear after going on track.

 

LATER:
The above setup saving issue has something to do with the index file keeping order of the saved setups.
The index gets corrupted.
Probably if you have too many setups.
Because I tried to delete the setups in the "vehiclesetups" folder.
And now new saved setups didnt disappear.
Strange thing was that when I then copied the "deleted" setups back into the folder all the former "disappeared" setups was suddenly to be seen again.
So an interpretation could be that the corrupted index was reset when the folder was emptied and when I then copied the setuips back the index accepted them by reindexing them.

EDIT: It looks like when the index file gets corrupted then the game isnt able to keep hold on deletions of setups. So when you delete a setup from inside the menus then the file isnt deleted on the HD.
And after some time all these undeleted files clutter everything up.

 

Track & Layout Used: Spielberg ( but happend in any )
Car Used: GT3 ( happend with other car as well )
Applicable Settings: Online (P2P or Dedicated)
Report: Get stock after qual to go on race
Steps to reproduce: as many time reported after Qual session ended (can be ear by Crewchief as well) we are stock and continue button doesn t do anything expect turning red when the mouse goes on it.
After a while when '' the problematic someone '' leave it suddently working as expected.
I noticed during the time we are blocked everyone are reported as ON TRACK ( see screenshot).
It was a busy session, dunno if it has an impact
Filter on 1300 eval was set.
Let us know if there is a log somewhere we can grab to help debugging this.

 

Game version: 1.4.3.3
Track & Layout Used: Watking Glen Short, Buenos Aires Circuito n°6, Auto Club Speedway sport car course, I think many others.
Car Used: Mini Cooper S 1965 B
Applicable Settings: Single player race with AI Copa Classic B
Report: Speed limit in the stand is not the same for the mini (100 km/h) and the other cars (60 km/h)

 

Game version: 1.4.3.3
Track & Layout Used: Any track
Car Used: Mclaren F1 GTR
Applicable Settings: Single session, or any session
Report: Backfire wrong on the car

 

Car: Porsche Cayman GT4
Track: Hockenheim (full course)
Session Distance: 15 laps
Weather when the issue was observed: Dry
Session: Race

A simple bug I think. After about an hour's worth of practice, the fuel calculator estimated that with 36L of fuel, I should be able to drive 16 laps. Well, I was out of fuel when entering the stadium section at the final (15th) lap. Quite annoying.

 

Track & Layout Used: Any
Car Used: Any
Applicable Settings: -
Report: Incorrect standings when AI car retires on the last lap.
Steps to reproduce: -
When AI cars retire at the end of race, on the last lap, the car always is placed (in standings) after all " + 1 lap" cars, and even (at least in one case) behind car which was " +2 laps" - two laps down. It is a long standing problem, I have noticed this some time ago.

 

All cars, Adelaide have some clears cuts too. Track limits must be corrected urgently, the time trial function lose credibility. It's the only competitive feature the game currently offers.

 

Track & Layout Used: WG-GP
Car Used: F-US Gen3 Rainard Mercedes
Applicable Settings: TT
Report: PB laptime does not get saved or uploaded

 

exactly i gave up when i seen this guy cutting the chicanes so badly
Surely it cannot be that hard to erase times

 

A small one:
When you have dirt on windshield enabled, you can not clean it by using the wipers, just as if the dirt was on the inside of the shield.
