    It would be nice to have either an option to turn off the halo or to make it transparent in the Formula Ultimate.

    Allow the "minutes" to be changed to start a practice, event, etc... I'm a big fan of having the perfect sunset, glow, glare going on, and taking in-game photos. Sadly, not having minutes, makes it harder or forces me to use unrealistic time acceleration where the shadows fall apart.

    Would be nice to have a few more time scale options too. It goes from 1x, 2x, 5x, 10x. I'd like to see some of the gaps filled in between those like 3x, 4x, 6x, 8x.

    Would also be nice to see sunrise sunset time for the custom date selected.

    Something I would like is a feature that could be enabled in one of the settings files in AMS 1: installation laps. I'm sure this won't be used by anyone else, but I really enjoyed using it

    It would be great to have the option for a track day-type session. This would essentially extend a Test Day with AI drivers (ideally with the option for multiclass).

    Chicane, Club and Woodlands variants for Cadwell Park would be nice (though I'm not sure how Club would work given the location of the pits... maybe skip that one).

    Allowing mandatory pit stops to be set for time-based sessions (ideally allowing to specify a pit window). This is done in several series, e.g. Formula Regional (not that one, was thinking of Super Formula, but that's lap-based), British GT, and GT Cup.

    I really would like to have weather forecast.
    Weather forecast for the current session and the upcoming sessions.
    Maybe with an extra tab...
    Weather forecast with sun/rain(light,middle,heavy,thunderstorm,...), temperature, wind, air pressure all over the time in 15min, 30min or 1 hour steps.
    That would be great!
    As I think, the old GP4 had something similar.

    You can feel it with transducers through SIMHUB.

    This idea could be incorporated into a future career mode as a talent spotting day, test session, or development day..

    I love the installation lap. In F1 2020 (ahem cough cough I know) its a big immersion booster. Gets the juices flowing ready for lights out. Unfortunately for me I kept on crashing because I was focused more on temps than I was on where I was going :whistle: It would be awesome to see these kinds of details in there (although I also recognise its not everyone's thing).

    You can sort of setup a track day with AI by doing a multiclass race weekend, enable free practice which will work kind of a track day, set the practice length you want and adjust time progression accordingly. I posted videos in my Youtube channel doing this with prototypes.

    Which means it would be dead easy to implement? :whistle:

    Awesome idea - and with a session length this also allows for session-synced weather progression (which would have been an additional request).

    Yes, you can have multiple weather slots in practice. It's also interesting to check the time the sun rises and sets depending on the time of the year you choose and adjust time progression accordingly. It's nice when you set it up just right and start the session with the sun rising and end the session with the sun setting.

    I m sure it has been quoted before but when are we going to see alternate seq. shift up/down mapping ? As it is now we are stuck on either wheel's paddles or a seq shifter (we cant have both) :(


    Come on Reiza..

    Please give us some more historic layouts for tracks which are already in game.
    Nurburgring: GP Layout 1984/85 and 1995 - 2001
    Kyalami: GP Layout 92/93

    FFB meter would be useful. It is important to see the ffb clipping visually.

    Also a soft lock.

    Edit after a while: Apparently, there had already been a ffb-meter in game. Nice!

    Please activate the oval track in Daytona. It is actually there, you can drive on it (of course the laptimes do not count), so, the AI line and behaviour and the replay cameras should be the only things which must be programmed. :whistle:;)

    Please... For the love of god...

    Give us separate settings for Auto clutch, Auto Blip and Auto Lift as in AMS1, so that we can control them independently.

    I think I read in another thread that ovals are coming.

    Edit: I think I saw it elsewhere, but it's here too: Daytona Oval
