    hi guys ...
    I had many AMS CrashToDesktop last night during a league race and would like to find out the reasons, to avoid and resolve this issue.
    unfortunately the AMS.exe.####.dmp files are in binary code and I would like to find out the smartest way to read and analyze these CrashDump files to resolve the CDT's.
    if anybody could point me the right direction ... that would be highly appreciated! thanks!

    Hello,

    PS. Before you do anything, go to your "Documents\Automobilista\userdata\LOG\" folder.
    Find a file named "trace.txt" in there, attach it here. Trace file is always generated, but on low level if user does not specify it explicitly. Check below how to generate higher detail trace file.

    pls attach a Trace file here; link how to generate one is down:

    You haven't added +trace=2 into game launch options in steam. Which is described in the topic i linked you :p
    Scroll down to "Providing Logs" in that topic to see how to do it.
