Automobilista 2 has now been updated to V1.1.1.3 - this is another complementary update to our latest release, adding some further improvements and corrections.
The most significant development involves physics & AI under wet weather, correcting various performance inconsistencies accross all cars under the various combinations of tires and wetness saturation levels.
V1.1.1.1 -> V1.1.1.3 CHANGELOG
UI & HUD
- Fixed Time Trial info incorrectly hiding current lap time in live sessions
- Adjusted element/text size of audio device and controller model selection inputs to better suit long names
- Exposing assignments for Gear 7 & 8 and Telemetry HUD mode switching
- Added GT1 and G40C to vehicle filter definitions
PHYSICS
- Further substantial reduction of slick adhesion on a wet track
- Further adjustments to wet tires for various cars
- Disabled legacy manifold pressure function (now solely using our own AMS1-based throttle mapping to adjust throttle response for each engine)
- Disabled redundant legacy function applying aero torque to the frontend when car was airborne (could cause cars to nosedive after getting airborne)
- Further adjusted aero draft effects
- Corrected tire tread dimensions for Copa Classic, F-Trainer
- Fixed error in Group A / Procar front tire tread
- Fixed error in F-Ultimate tires speed effect
- Adjusted tire tread optimal temperature range for Caterhams, ARC Camaro, Copa Truck
- Further adjustments to dry tire falloff rates on wet surface (including grooved / road tires)
- Minor default setup adjustments for Metalmoro AJR, Sigma P1, Metalmoro MRX, Roco 001, Mclaren 570S, Mclaren 720S GT3, Mercedes AMG GT3, Porsche GT3-R, Porsche Cup & all Copa Classic cars (setup reset recommended)
- Metalmoro AJR: Small aero revisions; adjusted engine compression curves for Nissan V6 & Honda Turbo variants; Disabled redundant DRS icon for Nissan V6 & Honda turbo variants
- Slightly reduced crankshaft mass for F-Trainers, MCR, ARC Camaro (less engine inertia)
- F-Retro: Small aero revisions to all cars
- Disabled AJR DRS icon for V6, Honda variants
- Reduced F1 pitstop tire change timings
AI
- Added car-specific overrides for AI performance on a wet track (on slicks & wet tires) & added new parameter to callibrate AI performance with wet tires on a drying track
- Further AI callibration passes
- Further slightly reduced AI CoG height scale to minimise chances of AI cars rolling over high curbs
- Slightly raised AI lateral movement rate for overtaking & passing boosts (to mitigate getting stuck on straights)
- Slightly reduced AI braking point offset
- Reduced AI lifting off throttle over puddles to 50%
- Slightly increased range of performance from AI drivers
TRACKS
- Nurburgring: Minor art pass & fixes
- Revised VR trackside cams at Silverstone & Spa-Francorchamps to disable DOF blur (ongoing process to be applied to all tracks)
- Further weather probability adjustments (slightly less rain in rainy locations)
VEHICLES
- Fixed missing wiper animations on Ginetta G40 Cup & Ginetta G55 GT4
- Added Dirt/Scratch map for F-Retros, Lotus 72E, Mclaren M23 & Brabham BT44
- Analogue gauges now light up when lights are on
