Project cars 2 bug report Q&A

[Mr Tree]

Got my 1st bug to report (I think) patch 4 (wasn't present patch 3).

Possible sound issue, XB1X, Samsung 5.1 surround, Ferrari 488 GT3, Brands Hatch.

Randomly all game sound goes very quiet for a few minutes then comes back again to normal volume.

Had it happen a couple of times now, at 1st I thought I lent on the TV remote by accident.

Doesn't seem to happen on any other track/car combo as yet. I'll keep testing.

Does this happen all the time on that track? I think I had that happen once too after patch 4.0 or 4.1

I think it was brands hatch in the gt5's. I allocated this to me being intoxicated but there might be an issue there

Yeh, only had it happen on brands & it only happens the 1st time after loading the game. Once you exit out & go back in it's fine (from what I can remember).

More bugs. These are news ones to be for patch 4.1

This one being a real bummer when you spend a good 30-60mins in fp only for it to crash like this and then you can't restart the game fast enough to even start at the back of the grid Right as I cross the line so some update to the timings or something failed an error trap.


Gawd knows what this is about. I tried everything to give it a kick.

ive also noticed that about 60% of the time I exit the game, the game crashes as I exit and will freeze on the main menu screen. Kind of frustrating, but I guess it could freeze in a worse spot. PC

I spent last night racing the F40LM (against a field of other F40s) and there was a huge LOD glitch where I could see right through the back of the AI cars, between the rear lights.

I could see the drivers in their seats, shifting and using the wheel. The wing mirrors had no glass in, was just the frame. I could even see the road out the side of the cars yet when I pulled along side them the exterior bodywork looked normal. The rear lights also were flat textures without reflection and detail. Happened race after race.

Have posted on official forum but if anyone wants to check their F40s out and let me know if it's just mine that'd be great. PS4.

And you didn't take a screenshot?

It crossed my mind a few times but that's about it. I'm sure it'll happen next time I race them so I'll do it then so you can all have a laugh

I randomly raced one against a GTO field at Road America and had no problems. Didn't get past that though.

I didn't notice it either when I raced against the same class, only when all cars were identical. I'll check it out again next time I play.

Happened with me today, online GTO race at Monza, field of 6 F40s, and noticed it during the end of race drive scene where the rear black mesh around the brake lights disappeared and you could see straight through the back into he cockpit. PS4 pro, running enhanced resolution mode.

I'm not going mad then... Nice

Newest bug for me. With a pit strategy selected and ready to go it won’t change my tires on pitstops. Sometimes it will after my first stop but never the first stop. Any ideas?

Maybe you selected tires change as "recomended" instead of "all"?

 

[McKiernan]

Other way round, select all instead of recommended.

That is implied in the post. He was suggesting that the person with the issue had selected "recommended" instead of "all".

I had an odd bug last night. Driving the Boss 302 Mustang and after a heavy collision the bonnet (hood) of the car ended up inside the car, completely blocking the view of the road ahead. Very odd!

That's called realistic :-P
Seems the accident was really heavy

My bad, misread it

I am like 100% sure I select all but I`ll double check. Thank You

Is this normal?

I have four weather slots, All some form of dry weather but with light rain in slot 2, or slot 3, happened both times. What happens is the track is already wet like it rained but there is no rain falling. Rain will fall when it comes to that but why is the track not starting out dry?

 

[Daz555]

Not sure if it is a bug or feature but when searching for ghost laps for GTE you get lumped in with GT1, GT3, GT4 etc which makes it impossible to find a ghost to watch as GT1 cars have all the top slots with ghosts.

That's caused by the limited amount of leaderboards Sony and MS are allowing. The only solution was to combine multiple leaderboards into one.

Still happening with all variations of things like car, season, etc. Any time I put a rain slot in somewhere, the race starts with a wet track. I'd really love to have a race with a wet track and then always dry with no rain coming at all but the closest I can get is Light Rain - Some kind of dry weather x3.

It does something similar on PC, at least for the road cars they are all lumped together in one class. The only way to find something relevant is to sort for the one specific model you are using(the only options are sort by [all] class[es] or by identical). I don't think I've ever checked any leaderboards or done any TT runs with race cars yet to see how those are sorted.

Has anyone else noticed that in the Porsche 959 the turbo isn't working?

Its fine now. Just did a restart and that's it

After installing Porsche dlc, in time trail with Donington GP selected and any radical no values appear in the setup screen, click exit or save and the game freezes. Only had time to try it with this combination so don’t know how many cars/tracks are affected.

 

[Eunosthedeer]

A few issues I am experiencing.

When I attempt to drive the Panoz..It freezes the game, works ok after a reset but always happens.

I still get the graphics glitching up at California highway, once again have to reset the game for it to work.

The BMW Z4 Gt4's engine noise cuts out quite a bit.. On and off.

Anyone notice the HP peak for the Group 5 cars? That last HUD option that shows all the data, check the bottom right when you're about to shift. So far I just stumbled upon it so I know the Nissan and BMW have this. Both peak at around 580HP, not what they say.

The Quattro S1 has the same issue. It makes far less power than advertised. I believe it's a turbo issue in game. I've search the interwebs but couldn't find a thing on the turbo issue other than it affects some of the cars in the Porsche pack too.
