They are working on this, just have some patience. If i'm right, they plan to release a fix for this in ~1 week, when the Formula Trucks dlc will be released as well. I just hope they don't break my G27

I hope this is true, this is my favorite sim for formula cars, it's just unplayable right now for g29 users.

it shouldn't, and doesn't in normal conditions... So I don't know what is happening there.

My settings was the same after the update. Everything working great.

I only purchased Automobilista two weeks ago. Have been playing Assetto Corsa for years as my main sim along with iRacing, Rfactor 2 and a few others.
I do not know how I missed Automobilista off my list, I race every night just about, a couple of weeks ago I watched a couple of clips on Youtube of AMS and thought that looks ok and then I saw the (and heard) the v8 supercars and being an Australian I thought I would give it go cause it looked ok...
Well, I have not raced any other sim other than Automobilista since I purchased it, I know I still love Assetto Corsa but I haven't been able to turn Autombilista off yet, this is TRULY a magnificent sim and definately the best sim of V8 Supercars out there, the feel and sound is great and the graphics are better than I expected to. Can't wait to get home to get into it again!!!!!!!!!!!

Racing the V8 Supercars is really addictive, especially when you follow all races and have most of the proper liveries in AMS

 

[Maltus]

Same here, i have assetto corsa and rfactor 2 and all my time is dedicated to AMS. V8 are impressive, almost like every car and circuit in this sim.

"Trucks released for AMS beta. "

great !!!!!!!

Fantastic Job !!!! Don't know how to drive this monsters IRL, but surely it's like in AMS !!!! Tried @ imola 72 and oulton park.... no words !!!

^ but is it any different from FTruck 2013 physics-wise?

 

[Alexandre Costa]

It's been a while since I don't play the FTruck 2013. I couldn't compare both. But I assure you that it's really fun.

I don't have AMS Beta installed so, question to G25/G27 owners...

G27 is working with the Trucks dlc? Wasn't supposed to Reiza add support to G29/G920 in this update, and G27 owners would need to update Wheel drivers, to latest Profiler version ( March 2016 ), or they didn't add support to G29/G920 wheels yet?

When the Trucks hit the Public release, i don't wanna find out that my G27 doesn't work. Reiza has been quiet about this... Does DFGT/G25/G27 owners need to update the drivers, or not?

I have a G25 and so far my gears don't appear to be working for the trucks, they're okay with other cars, but I only ran a quick test to see if the beta was okay. I have the March drivers installed and can't update to the latest as R3E require this version.

Don't forget that the 1st gear is disabled. Because usually on trucks the 1st is on the position that on cars is the 2nd.

Yes it goes to second in auto pit but once manual control kicks in no gears. Will have another try later when I've got more time, since they work for other cars it may just me being stupid.
