12/12/2020 Reiza Leave a comment

Reiza Studios has released a fresh hotfix update for the Automobilista 2 racing simulator. Update V1.0.6.2 is addressing some relevant issues with the new content.

Besides a good list of fixes and improvements, this update also completes the support for custom liveries. Reiza will share some more info and templates for all cars shortly. On the content side of things, this patch adds the Nurburgring Sprint Short layout.

Last but not least, the update also contains some preparations for an upcoming substantial AMS2 update that will be deployed later this month. Note that no settings or setup reset required with this update other than for the 2 cars specified (BMW M1 Procar & Ginetta G58).

Restart your Steam client to receive the update.
