Automobilista is now available on Steam Early Access

Renato Simioni · Mar 1, 2016

AUTOMOBILISTA puts you in the driving seat of one of the most advanced racing simulators and delivers a uniquely diverse motorsports experience!

As the natural successor to Reiza Studios´ previous title - the highly regarded Stock Car Extreme, originally released in 2013 - AUTOMOBILISTA continues to simulate the premium Brazilian racing series such as Stock Car V8, Copa Petrobras de Marcas, Formula 3 Brasil and Mitsubishi Lancer Cup, now packing every car and every track from their respective 2015 championships.

Beyond the brazilian core, AUTOMOBILISTA is extensively complemented with one of the most diverse selections or racing vehicles you will find in a racing game: only in AUTOMOBILISTA will you be able to jump from a rental kart to a 800-HP F1 car; from drifting a Rallycross EvoX to jumping ramps in a Supertruck; from mastering the driving basics in a Formula Vee to managing a full 24h race in an endurance prototype; back and forth through historical and modern content featuring a sample of several decades of GP racing - all of this and much more within a few mouse clicks. Thoroughly researched and cohesively developed for maximum simulation accuracy, AUTOMOBILISTA captures the fun only motorsports in its various forms can provide.

In addition to the content already present in Stock Car Extreme - all of which comprehensively upgraded - AUTOMOBILISTA turns it up to a new level by adding all the new cars & tracks proposed in the SimRacing Bonanza crowdfunding campaign, new simulation features such as dynamic track conditions, advanced transmission and tire modelling, substantial upgrades to physics, graphics & audio, new game modes and much more!

Keep in mind the title is still an advanced beta and being released in Early Access - some bits and bobs still to add and improvements to be made. We´ll also be sharing more information as to how to get the best out of Automobilista as we progress through the week.

IMPORTANT EDIT: Do not copy your player PLR, controller or config.ini from SCE or any previous title. Save yourself some trouble and start fully fresh.

I am having an issue when I get out of the car (Esc key) the screen goes black except for the HUD on the far left and right of the screen. I have to alt+tab out and back into the game to get back to the game screen. Otherwise, a very nice driving/racing experience, very enjoyable!

me too when I get out of the car (Esc key) the screen goes black

Renato Simioni · Mar 1, 2016

That´s a DynHUD issue we´re looking to fix - you can get around it by alt-tabbing by now, or sticking with the native HUD for now.

Any chance people are missing some Microsoft Visual C version? (doesn't this stuff use it usually?)

@Renato Simioni
How to show the servers in the MP lobby because in the game is nothing shown?
And even a dedicated server isn't available to join.

me too
I figured out why you guys cant see the multiplayer. You need to be running the beta version and the only way you can get it is if you were part of the crowd funding program and a level 2 or higher. But dont fret i am sure it will become available shortly once its been tested and is stable.

First laps were in the Touring Car cant recall official name

don't ask me why I chose that to be my first series to try as I never played them in SCE.
But wow fantastic,next up was the trucks and I couldn't drive the things at first but again wow, next up the rallyX and again superb.
Game feels amazing already, SCE and AC were neck and neck for me as my favourite sims but now AMS tops the pile for me , love it!!! great job reiza so glad I backed you guys even if only the lowest tier.

Thanks for the help with the slight stuttering think my problems are solved!

I have renamed the old file d3d9.dll in the root folder and it works ok.

If the file d3d9.dll is deleted, DynHUD doesn´t work.

If you have SCE on Steam before January 5th you should already have Automobilista available in your library. We are checking with Valve why some SCE / AMS Beta owners do not seem to have it. Please allow us some time to verify this.

Please let us know once you have more information. I'm affected, too :/

Not yet (will in the future).

Some cars have electronic aids (decoupled from the gameplay aids of the same name) which you can switch on / off from the garage menu. The V10 has auto gears and TC by default as per the real car it represents.

Multiplayer issue being sorted in an update tonight - keep in mind the in-game lobby wont work yet, you must access it from the Steam client (more info on it soon).

Unplayable at the moment. Getting 0.5 FPS in-game. Spent all night crying and listening to Taylor Swift instead.

Make sure you don´t use old config / PLR files. Try disabling SweetFX (via AMS Config) and / or DynHUD (via display menu), see if that makes a difference.

Martin Larsen · Mar 1, 2016

Is there a way to use the new DynHUD but without the speedo on the screen? I just manage to turn the entire hud off or on, not take away just one thing...

Edit: nevermind, figured it out...

Hopefully that is the problem. However, I saw guys on the steam forums saying they fixed it by disabling FFB entirely. Only worked for some people though. Very strange.

I'm having trouble setting an upper dead zone on my csp v2,it'll only let me adjust the lower one.

Any help appreciated

Cheers

I had an issue getting a Formula 3 to apply power to the tires. I turned off auto clutch and it started working.

Thomas O'Leary · Mar 1, 2016

Anyone else getting stuttering in the Karts & Kart tracks? Doesnt appear to happen in any other car/track combos. (Had same problem in GSCE)

Remember seeing a FAQ post somewhere recently? anyone have a link?
