Yet more tweaks, changes and fixes have arrived for Automobilista 2, thanks to the V1.2.1.2 update which is now available to download.
The most significant addition of LiveTrack preset support for multiplayer and dedicated server use. The game can simulate rubber, dirt and dust build-up on the circuit surface, and now you’ll be able to select how this feature works during online racing too.
Sadly, developer Reiza Studios has also flagged a conflict between the game and Logitech’s G Hub software. If you’re using a G29 / G920 / G923 wheel, you may want to roll back to an older version of G Hub to avoid crashes.
Extra information is now available when browsing for online sessions and within lobbies too thanks to some UI changes and the AI performance has been re-made from the ground-up for both the Nürburgring GP and Silverstone.
These significant changes site alongside a long list of small fixes, which we’ve listed for you below in the full changelog. This update follows on from the recent development update, where an upcoming new track and car were teased. Let us know in the comments if you’ve been playing Automobilista 2 recently.
