Hopefully we get that FAQ about changes to the FFB settings.

Announce the console port dammit, my Series X is waiting

 

[Gas12]

I've been obsessed with MSFS for months now so just not been touching driving sims.
But i fired up AMS2 last night and well, how did it become one of the best sims out there?

I always liked it, but last night it felt 'right', looked awesome too.
Seems there's been some important patches.
Nice.

I am a long time AC player, nearly 3000 hours in that, then RF2 then Race room, for some context.

Looks extremely enticing! Just curious, with another AMS 2 update due to arrive in the next few days, will the update "break" the bootfiles used with this mod?

 

[Beezer215]

Yes, they always break the bootfiles in a sense. The bootfiles contain the data that they updated. So a new set is necessary to have the update. Tedious and a pain in the keeeester, I know. Get's to be a quick process though the more you do it.

 

[deCarrera]

It's the waiting for the new bootfiles that then only work for a couple of weeks that's tedious.
Not complaining though, happy that Reiza continues updating and improving the sim.

 

[Beezer215]

Yep and then they release a hotfix after the update which then again puts a wait on bootfiles.

Hello! So I lost my PS4 and PS5 in current local situation unable to find, starting to think about something that I could play on PC online. Heard this one very Project Cars 2 game, so if I was able to pull one on PS4, will it be the same comfortable with controller, Dualshock 4, through steam? Also my specs very low, how it will perform online?
x64, AMD Ryzen 3 3200U with Radeon Vega Mobile Gfx 2.60 GHz, 8,00 ГБ RAM, SSD drive and Sony TV. I am ok with ugly graphics, since, you know console player, and will go no more than 720p.

On the occasion I use a controller I find it fairly decent with the base settings (Xbox controller for clarity), granted there are still some cars that are a handful. I'm sure you could make it even better by messing with the controller settings.

I can't really answer the rest of your post since I don't play online but I recommend giving it a go since you have 2 hours to play with before the Steam return window closes. Alternatively they do have a demo of sorts using a couple VW's and Autodromo Velo Citta if you want to try it before putting any money down.

Also, if you're patient it's worth mentioning the game goes on sale pretty often.

Trying to download the demo off Steam but it ain’t happening..just the spinning blue circle of hell

Be warned, the demo doesn't represent the current game, ie it's not as good. If I were you at £9.85 for all those games, well you can't go wrong. I had a quick go, it's great, the real PC3.

This car is great!! Great Job! Mind those RPM's on the downshifts!

We're getting a (guessing fictional) 2022 F1 car in the next update.

 

[Beezer215]

I love how we have so many categories with just 2 cars in them and yet here we are with a new open wheeler category. I'll never understand. I'll still love AMS2 but I'll never understand. Mildly amused by this.

Agree - that is one area where project cars did a decent job. The stock liveries in AMS2 are very plain and not very appealing to say the least. Project cars did a decent job at liveries also, however some models could of uses a lot more livery choices.

Is there any reason why there is no AMS 2 section on Gtplanet yet?

Woul have loved to have shared this on its dedicated thread.

New Formula 1 car coming to Automobilista 2

Reiza Studios have teased the latest addition to Automobilista 2 on Twitter. The images appear to show a 2022 Formula One car, there’s no mistaking the shape of the rear wing, or flares above the front wheels - this is definitely a ground effect...

I asked why no category a long time ago and it was deemed unnecessary and unpopular. After all, it isn't GT7, right? /s

Same can be said for the WRC series of games, it would have been great to have their own catagory.

Demand drives sub-forums.

Talk about the titles, post videos and photos from them (nothing is stopping you creating threads dedicated to both of these), encourage other players you may know to come here and do the same.

Demonstrate that the title has sufficient interest to warrant a dedicated sub-forum and I will be happy to support the staff discussion that it needs one, but in order to do that it needs to be clearly active in terms of discussion.

At the end of the day the final call would be made by @Famine and @Jordan

Agreed, they seem to be going for every possible open wheel category and if they release it soon they'll be one of the first sims with an authorized release of the 2022 F1 cars. Still I keep hoping for Group 5 and GTO category vehicles to be added especially as many of them are already in PCars2. If not Reiza then perhaps the modding community will come to the rescue...

Another excellent addition. Well done!

I personally love the PopsRacer FFB myself for PC2. I'm on a DD2. It get's me enough of the weight transfer you need to feel what's happening. Knowing some of the parameters inside the file helps but right out of the box it's good.

Glad you got the mods working! 🙌

I loaded the latest PopsRacer FFB for Project Cars 2 and it's transformed the game for me. I finally enjoy driving in the sim now. So much so that I even created a livery for the Cobra Mustang TransAM/GTO and posted it in Race Department. Cheers!
