Bug Reports - Automobilista 2 (Read the Opening Post)

Track & Layout Used: Guapore
Car Used: GT4 Alpine
Applicable Settings: Track Surface mid rubber / Hazy / Cloudy 2 Settings / Race / 20 Cars
Report: Some cars did weird movements on the grid and crashed at the start. Game freezes and has to "killed". Tried several times with different settings. Tried with Ginetta G40 Cup and it worked flawelessly.
Steps to reproduce: Start a race at Guapore with a GT4 field of 20 cars or more and start at the back of the field.

 

Track & Layout Used: Interlagos 1993 ( seems to happen on interlagos 1991 too)
Car Used: Formula Hitech G2
Applicable Settings: Weather - every weather, Track surface - heavy rubber, 24 cars
Report: Every time when i launch Interlagos 1993 or 1991 race with Formula Hitech, bots (only p1, p2, p3, p4) are always touching the wall at the left in turn 1 at the start. Its happening like in 4/5 starts and it's quite annoying because after that they just hardly bounce to the right.
Steps to reproduce: Drive the Formula hitech g2 in Interlagos 1993 race with bots, and pay attention to the First corner

 

I did that. Latest Build.

 

Version: V1.6.9.2

Car Used: Copa VW
Applicable Settings: N/A

• Lap 3: Back straight shows the turbo boost pressure dial going haywire. Happens throughout the race many times.
• Lap 31, Cooldown Lap: VW Gol Rendering issue
• Lap 40: Should there still be visible puddles/damp patches and a "Moist" track condition when there has been no rain for hours, 33 Air, 50 Track temp and an 18kph wind?

All the best

Version 1.6.9.2
Cars : Stock USA
Report : Graphical issue

Hello,

I've noticed a graphical bug on the US stock car models. The rear spoiler looks different depending on your distance from the car: as you move closer to or further away from the car in front, the rear spoiler's appearance changes. It seems like a shadow loading issue.
I only see this on these cars. I've tried increasing the car's resolution and the shadow detail, but nothing helps.

 

Version 1.6.9.2.3198
Track & Layout Used: Mosport
Car Used: GT4
Applicable Settings: MP, Rolling start, 10 laps
Report: Qualified P3, at the rolling start stuck behind car (stopped) without a way to steer around it (AMS was still synchonising when left lane took off). After getting control I could start my race at P16 (first pickup of the throttle in this race). Other users complained as well at the finnish about the bug at the start.
Steps to reproduce: -

 

Track & Layout Used: Any
Car Used: Any
Applicable Settings: Be in VR
Report: The HUD is practically impossible to configure in VR. Configuring the HUD was always an issue but with the use of an XBOX controller was manageable. It has gotten much worse since the latest few patches over the last month or so.

New bugs:
Moving the elements with the thumbstick doesn't move them up/down/left/right any more, but along some strange axis. Rotating the elements doesn't actually rotate them as it used to, but they seem to have the desired rotation cast on to a flat plane that is always facing the camera, leading to the elements scaling vertically or horizontally rather than rotating.

The previous issues we've had since launch are:
Difficult to select elements.
Mouse cursor doesn't line up properly to the element borders that sit at the menu screen depth. If they did we could select the elements using the mouse.
Extremely unwieldy control scheme on xbox controller, with one errant button click (X) completely resetting all the efforts you've gone through to customize.

Steps to reproduce:
Go into VR and attempt to customize the HUD.

 

Version : 1.6.9.2.3158
Car Used - : Brabham BT62
Report : - Fast Bump & Fast Rebound to the front - unit rate settings are wrong as they go from 1 to 501. Assume this should be 1 to 51 as the rear

Version : 1.6.9.2.3158
Car Used - : Lamborghini Revuelto
Report : - Fast Rebound to the front - unit rate settings are wrong as they go from 1 to 501. Assume this should be 1 to 51

Version : 1.6.9.2.3158
Car Used - :Lamborghini Veneno Roadster
Report : - Fast Rebound to the front - unit rate settings are wrong as they go from 1 to 501. Assume this should be 1 to 51

 

Version 1.6.9.2
Track & Layout Used: Daytona TriOval
Cars : Stock USA Gen2
Report : AI cars retire too often (the same radiator cooling?)
In Daytona AI retirements still happen when May-Sep (summertime). So cooling is still a problem there.

 

Version 1.6.9.2
Track & Layout Used: Any
Cars : GT3 Gen 2
Report : Default and Default+ effects seem to be reversed, the steering becomes light and lifeless under braking with leads to the well known 'floaty' feeling. The sense of weight transfer feels backwards as the car is light in corners but heavy on straights.

Done additional testing and this may be a wet weather specific issue.
Steps to reproduce: Compare between GT3 and LMP2. LMP2 feels brilliant on default and default+ and feels exactly as it should.

 

Version: 1.6.9.2
Cars: All
Report: In the classic HUD mode the tire pressure value is displayed in bar, but the writing says psi.

 

Version 1.6.9.2
Track & Layout Used: Pocono, Oval
Cars : Stock USA Gen 2
Report : In raining conditions, the AI is unrealistically fast even if AI wet skill scalar is set to 0.5x.also the car physics does not seem right in wet weather conditions.

Version 1.6.9.2
Track & Layout Used: Any oval track
Cars : All Karts
Report : Drivers of other karts suddenly disappear at a certain distance. This bug is also present in project cars 2 (VR). Also worth mentioning here that Karts AI is not well optimized for any oval track.

Screenshots provided from VR gameplay, as I only play in VR. Not sure if the bug is present non-VR gameplay.

 

Track & Layout Used: Championship including a modded track
Car Used: Vintage Mini but presumably this isn't the problem
Applicable Settings: I was in the middle of a custom British saloon car championship including the Bannochbrae track
Report: Crash to Desktop. After the update, modded tracks disappear. If I don't do this/don't notice the update and click to resume the championship I get a crash to desktop even though Banochbrae is not the next track on the calendar.
Steps to reproduce: As above

As I have been hanging out on these forums and know that updates remove mod tracks and that there was an update today, I immediately knew what the problem was and fixed it by reinstalling the track, but to a less sophisicated user this would look like a bug in AMS2 (and not their fault for modding).
It would be better if this bug was caught with an error message like "Track not found", "Modded track not found" or even "Track: Bannochbrae not found" depending on what you already have in the championship file.

 

Track & Layout Used: Sebring (but any applicable)
Car Used: LMP2 2005
Applicable Settings: Any
Report:
- Brake lights on AI opponents lack bloom post-processing, making it hard to judge when they brake
- Default gear ratios are bad, resulting in jolts on up-shifts on medium low speeds. Often from 1-3 first gears around 100-150kph
- Auto-clutch is weird, it flickers the clutch on/off, when standing still the car will start to accelerate instead of keeping the clutch fully down when releasing the brake from a standstill
- No fuel gauge or lap time indication on steering wheel, making it hard to drive without the hud, the second dash page is empty, could be used for it
Steps to reproduce: Just load the track

 

Version : 1.6.9.2.3171
Car Used - :Super Trophy Trucks
Report : - The Lateral Weight Bias is highlighted as if it can be altered - but it is fixed at 50.0/50.0

Version : 1.6.9.2.3171
Car Used - : MINI Cooper JCW

Version : 1.6.9.3 but its like this for a few months now
Report : my brother is my only friend on steam, with who I play online races and time trials to see who is better. For around 2-3 months in the loading screen, under the Friends part shows not my brothers name/time, but mine, same as at the Personal best. Before it showed his name/time.
