General & Small Questions-topic

Hi! I missed this topic so I created a new one with no answers yet

I have a simple question:

What is the logic for starting fuel when entering a session? I remember that, at least before the V1.6.8.5, when starting a new race, the game would automatically load just enough starting fuel for that race length.
However, after the last couple patches I'm confused, because if I don't fiddle with the car setup, the starting fuel will be a random amount that is not enough to end the race. But then, if I change the fuel in the car setup so it is enough for that race, the game creates a whole new setup (with the * ). And then, for the next race, the starting fuel will reset to that first random amount, until I enter the car setup and modify something, which will again create a new * setup...

Is your experience the same? Am I wrong or missing something? thanks!

See my bug report here and the reply from gian that follows.

 

I've been experiencing the mouse cursor not being recognized in game quite a few times, I play on PC on a single 3440×1440 screen. The present occurrence started after updating to 1.6.9, but this has happened previously also not immediately after an update, and on Windows 10 and 11.

Sometimes the cursor is misplaced, sometimes not recognized at all. I can partially navigate with the keyboard but this is extremely inconvenient and there are some functions that I just can not select. I also don't use mods.

What I tried this time so far without success:

- changing to borderless and windowed mode
- changing game resolution from monitor native to lower, then back
- alt+tab out of the game, and back in
- verifying game files on Steam
- deleting the game input config files from Windows Documents folder
- pressing enter when in game menu, then trying to use the mouse
- a different mouse and a trackpad
- multiple PC and game restarts
- different Displayport cable
- connecting the monitor via HDMI
- uninstalled the game, deleted all it's files from Steam library and Documents folder, reinstalled game
- checked Windows display scaling (it's at 100%)
- reset all settings on AMD Software Adrenaline Edition
- enable and disabled GPU scaling on AMD Software
- reset monitor settings

This is the only game I ever had this issue, how can I fix this?

 

Is it possible to restrict AI drivers to a specific class in a multiclass race? It seems like it just fills out the field evenly between all the classes?

I see there is a manual grid option for singleplayer races that will accomplish exactly what I'm looking for. Is there a way to do this in a multiplayer race? I don't see it as an option in the multiplayer race ai setup, but maybe with a dedicated server?

 

Great, thanks Marius.

 

I'm currently playing with DLDSR at a resolution of 4587x1920px (the base resolution is 3440x1440px) with TAA enabled.

I tried disabling DLDSR and enabling Super Sampling AA (low) + TAA in the game, and GPU usage is about 5% lower than when using DLDSR.

The game looks practically the same in both cases. I don't know if it's a placebo effect, but the image looks smoother with DLDSR.

Is there a way to determine a game's rendering resolution using an external application? This way, we would know the rendering resolution when using Super Sampling AA (low).

[EDIT] I just realized that TAA leaves quite a few artifacts when the sky is cloudy.

You can see the effect in this race I uploaded.

I didn't notice this until this race. I don't know if it's possible to fix this problem with TAA.

Sincerely.

 

I disabled practice and qualify for a single race. But now I can't enable them back. Reset to defaults doesn't work. I looked around in the options but didn't find anything. Any help would be appreciated.

 

Does the selected circuit have stands?

 

Thanks for your reply. When you asked about the circuit, it made me think. I turned it off in Daytona but tried to turn it back on in the Mojave tracks. Apparently, Mojave doesn't alloy it. This is what happens when I sim race at 3:00am, can't think clearly. Thanks for your help.

 

Is there a way to move telemetry hud objects? I see the option in other huds, but this one doesn't show up in that hud edit screen.

Specifically, I need to be able to see the ffb info and 100% bar, but it's placement is blocked by my wheel. I tried just running and watching a replay, but the hud isn't showing up in the replay.

 

@Renato Simioni are the time trial leaderboards going to be reset soon for the 1.7 update? im new to the game got 10 records or so in the last week but I dont want to waste time if its due to wipe soon and focus on multiplayer instead

 

Has anyone been having any crash issues on the latest build? I had a big one last night that erased my control settings and gameplay settings as well as the simhub led setting I had just created and used.

 

I used to have issues with the onboard graphics crashing the system at times and noticed in my latest bios update that I forgot to disable it, I might do that and see if it makes a difference.

 

Hello all,
Without me doing lots of very time consuming testing, is anybody able to confirm the maximum saved replay length/size?

Is it based on race length? or is it maybe size-based and variable by things like grid size, weather etc?

As a potential future feature, for those doing very long races, if it cannot be done with multiple files automatically, would it possible to choose the time segment of the replay we are saving? that way we could make multiple saves up to the maximum length/size and stitch the longer races together over multiple saved files.

All the best
Andy

 

Hi,
I can't remember exactly what results I got, but I seem to think that it depended on race length, number of cars and the track.

3 hours with 47 cars at Daytona was fine, but at Le Mans was not.

I did do more testing and reported my findings to the Dev team.

 

Is this a game bug, UI bug, did anyone notice this ?

Years ago when i started using a T300 + TLCM pedals and i calibrated everything, in the calibration menu i pushed Clutch to 100%, Brake to 60% and Throttle to 96%. Saved, and it behaves like that.

Now i have a Moza R5 + TLCM pedals, and when i calibrate pedals now no matter if it is at 90%, 50% or hell even 10%, it will still be calibrated like as if all three were at 100%.

When i plug my T300+TLCM it works as i calibrated it all those years ago.
No idea what is going on and i asked a friend who is having this exact same issue, no matter what % the calibration is, it always behaves where it is 1:1 for all three pedals.

 

Thank you for testing it and i am glad that it indeed is a game problem and not something on my side.
