Bug Reports - Automobilista 2 (Read the Opening Post)

Version: 1.6.9.91
Track & Layout Used: Any
Car Used: Audi V8 DTM & Mercedes 190 Evo 2 DTM
Applicable Settings: Tyre Overwrites/Custom Liveries
Report:
I beleive this is the same issues the Panoz had, where the tyre texture points to a specific texture and doesn't allow tyre overwrites with custom liveries. BMW works fine bit the other two cars in the class don't.

 

Version: 1.6.9.91
Track & Layout Used: Any
Car Used: Preset EU Enduro LM2005
Applicable Settings: any
Report:
The preset of EU Enduro LM2005 uses the same cars for Audi R8 LMP1, Dallar SP1 and Lola B05/40 as the preset of ALMS2005

For preset EU Enduro LM2005 especially these cars should be used

 

Version: 1.6.9.91
Track & Layout Used: Monza 2005
Car Used: Formula V8 Gen 1
Applicable Settings: any
Report:
The Game of 3 drivers crashed at the exact same time in a Multiplayer race. This happened the second time for us at Monza and the third time since the last update.
I know one didn´t send a bugsplat, I don´t know about the other 2.
Generally the connection seems a bit worse since the last Update because we didn´t had these issues before.
Server is a dedicated Server by Emperor Servers.
Server was hosted by me and I didn´t had any issues with my connection. The drivers where jumping around, especially at the start since there was an accident because of some cars jumping ahead suddenly. This was the case in the whole race including these 3 game crashes.
I´ve send @Marius H the replay!

 

Version: 1.6.9.91.3398.AVX
Track & Layout Used: Monza (all layouts),
Car Used: McLaren Mercedes MP4\12 (all liveries ID 51-54)
Applicable Settings: any
Steps to reproduce: single race, date is 10\09\2006, livetrack preset MEDIUM RUBBER, traction control low (other aids disabled), damage off, tyre wear and fuel usage off (this is important)
Report:
Tonight 02 - 03.08.2026 bug riding McLaren Mercedes MP4\12 occured in single race, multiplayer race and test day. I've never experienced such issue before this day.
Car spins around or goes airborne. No session restart or pit stop returns help as well as restarting the game. Livery ID:51 caused the game to crush giving me a bugsplat.
Using all racing aids available included no damage, no fuel usage, no tyre wear at all causes suspension damage (visual as well) and tyres to lose temperature or being worn off, which is depicted in video. Potentiometer and telemetry are fixing enormous values and numbers during the bug event.
I've checked all Grade 1 circuits and the problem occurs only in Monza.
My screenshots and recordings are included.

 

To complete, I experienced the same issue at Hockenheim 2001. But it was an AI car.
One of the McLaren MP4/12 (silver livery) did the same in garage. In practise and qualy session. In race session, the same again at the starting grid. After the first lap, some of the AI crashed with this McLaren. The McLaren retired and back in pit, the same again.

 

Yep same issue. It seems it only appears on low downforce tracks. Also idk if it happens to you too but on race starts the Mclarens jump on the grid and destroy themselves or start turning right into the barriers after start.

 

Version: V1.6.9.91
Track & Layout Used: Any
Car Used: Any GT3 gen2
Applicable Settings:
Report: car selection screen and details displays "Tire compounds: hard, wet"
In game compounds displayed: "soft, wet"

Steps to reproduce: Use car setup or telemetry hud to see tire compounds, it will showcase compounds that do not match the description. Easy fix, just a typo.

 

Version: 1.6.9.91
Track & Layout Used: Silverstone 2001
Car Used: DBR 9 /GT1 2005
Applicable Settings: time trial
Report:
track limit detection after Turn 1 is wrong. i did not even touch the white line and lap is invalid. Btw - there is a report from 2024 about that

 

Version: 1.6.9.91.3398.AVX
Track & Layout Used: Silverstone (but not necessarily the only one)
Car Used: P1Gen2
Applicable Settings: 2h race
Report:
Not sure if bug or request, but here it goes: AI can be very good now, but with the P1Gen2 at least, if they have to pit for fuel with about 2 min to go, they will refuel and change tyres, which in this class makes no sense and ruins the race. It should be a splash. I have seen other classes handling it brilliantly (I remember the hypercars and even some modded cars as well doing so), at least in previous versions, I haven't raced them recently.

 

Version: V1.6.9.91
Track & Layout Used: Any
Car Used: Retro Gen 2 Brabham BT49

Applicable Settings: irrelevant
Report: When racing this class combo, every class appears white in the standings, making it harder to distinguish (especially in the HUD, while driving). The same classes will have different colors in other combos.

Version: 1.6.9.91
Track & Layout Used: Any

Small UI bug that is probably very easy to solve, but it’s ok if it’s the last thing corrected on the sim! On loading screen, the Portuguese text has the word wrongly typed. Instead of “excessivo” (which would be correct), there’s an error and is written as “execessivo”!
Yes, really small and no difference at all, but every time I see it, it makes me notice it. (My Portuguese teacher would be cringing with this one)! Thanks

 

Track & Layout Used: Nordschleife Tourist
Car Used: any?
Applicable Settings: Time Trial mode
Report: A clean lap gets marked as dirty when crossing the start line (which is not the same as the finish line).
Steps to reproduce: Complete a clean lap. Open the timing screen between the gantry and the bridge - your lap time will show in white (clean). Close the timing screen. Pass under the bridge (new lap). Open the timing screen - your lap time will now show in red (dirty).
Note: this doesn't actually affect anything in AMS2 except the incorrect visual of your clean time showing as dirty, as the game 'stores' the lap at the finish, not when you cross the start line. It does however seem to affect 3rd party apps that use the telemetry from the game e.g. LapLegends.

 

Track & Layout Used: Silverstone GP
Car Used: P1Gen2 (driving it), GT3Gen2, GT4
Applicable Settings: 69 laps race, 47 opponents, authentic fuel/tyre consumption.
Report: Most P1 cars did 1 or 2 pitstops, depending on the model, which makes sense. But all the AJR Hondas did 6 pitstops, which makes no sense. Apparently there's something wrong with their fuel calculation.
Steps to reproduce: Simulate a race with the above parameters

 

Version: 1.6.9.91.3398.AVX
Track & Layout Used: doesn't matter; Monza Historic 2005 (example)
Car Used: doesn't matter; GT1 05 (example)
Applicable Settings: doesn't matter; free practise / weekend first practise
Report: LIVE TRACK preset: if using "default progress" in the first practise session or the free practise session the track starts with heavy rubber instead of a "green" state.
As written, "default progress" should start with a green state for the first session of a weekend


But the track is with heavy rubber already
(Monza 2005 first chicane, less seconds after start of first session)

In free practise the same:
No one was driving there before the picture.


Compared to a "green" track which is only green if LIVE TRACK preset is set to green.
