Automobilista: Hotfix 1.5.3 Update Now Live

[Paul Jeffrey]

Reiza Studios have today deployed a new update for Automobilista.

Currently the latest subject of our 'Rate The Sims' feature here on RaceDepartment (comment and vote HERE), a new build of golden oldie racing simulation Automobilista released on Steam earlier today - featuring a few nice fixes and improvements that Reiza Studios have deemed necessary following the most recent build update for the game.

Update details below:

• Added a hardcoded SteeringFFBMult value so a car will still have Force Feedback even if value is missing or zeroed in its physics file
• Fixed fanatec DD base features initialization in compatibility mode
• Fixed centering spring on game startup for Logitech wheels & small adjustments to rotation range method
• Fixed Fanatec wheel rumble being turned off in wrong way
• Donington: Switched off collision for pit building roof so Trucks won´t be stuck
• Snetterton: Fixed crash in AMS Dedi loading Snetterton 300; Fixed filters so track will be available for FTruck series; Small graphical and object updates

Automobilista is available now exclusively for PC.

The Copa Fusca, I think.

Here in southamerica we like to race any kind of old shitbox in series. Here in argentina one of them is for the Ford Falcon.

They said they will release another hotfix, but only for the drift mode CTDs.

I didn't read that, but can confirm that everything EXCEPT the drift mode CTD is working well for me with the latest version. No other crashes or strange behaviour.

The game that just REFUSES to die

Great sims don't 'die'.

They just drive away.

Already uninstalled it since there's a VR sequel coming!

Hi all. I cannot get the game out of windowed mode. Can someone please help. I used the Configuration Tool and that did not work.

Thank you in advance.

It sometimes does that to me as well. It switches to full screen after a couple of tries in my case. Just keep choosing full screen and restarting the game. May be it works for you too.

Hadn't played around with the sim for a couple of months, but fired it up today. It asked for a profile name after starting, gave one and proceeded to do some laps.

For some reason there is now a hefty throttle deadzone from 0 to around 20%. Tried remapping throttle, didn't help. Made a new profile, no go. Even removed all the standard profiles, but still the same issue.

Also, all my previous setups and settings seem to have vanished along with the old profile? Anyone else having the same problem?

E: I guess it's best to just reinstall AMS and backup all personal files from now on.
