Automobilista 2 V1.1.0.4 Released

Reiza Studios has released a brand new substantial update for the Automobilista 2 racing simulator.

Update v1.1.0.4 compliments the V1.1.0.0 release which was deployed two weeks ago and introduces several improvements and corrections for the Spa-Francorchamps Pack. Furthermore, the update includes new tire and driveline physics developments alongside some new AI logic that should greatly improve their skill dodging traffic in multiclass races.

This update does not require you to delete your Automobilista 2 settings folder, however, several cars require a setup reset to default to receive some of their latest adjustments as marked in the changelog below.

• Fixed bug causing AI simulated times to fluctuate widely
• fixed issue where AIs would brake without reason on pit entry or exit
• Further general AI performance calibration for throttle & brake application, tire rolling resistance & drivetrain losses (to better match player straight-line speed), launch speed (slow starts still remain an issue with Group A & Procar)
