Ever since the release of Le Mans and the Endurance Pack Pt. 1 DLC, Reiza Studios have hardly taken a break from tweaking Automobilista 2. Version 1.5.5.5 marks the third update of 2024, and it is “the final complementary update to this Le Mans dev cycle”, as Reiza Founder and Lead Developer Renato Simioni states in the forum post announcing the update.
Despite being only a minor update, Automobilista 2 v1.5.5.5 comes with a few interesting changes. Most notably, Le Mans now features trackside objects that were previously missing. Furthermore, those who are keen on exploring the French countryside outside of its traditional summer setting can do so with the proper foliage to match now. Racing in Fall, Spring or Winter looks the part as a result.
Other adjustments include safety car tweaks, the implementation of blue flags to trackside LED flag panels and the addition of these panels to Estoril (Cascais) and Jerez. Meanwhile, more work has taken place under the hood of AMS2 as well. The computer-controlled opposition should now react better to what is happening around them, also having received tweaks to their grip levels.
Seasonal foliage is now available for Le Mans in Automobilista 2.
Of course, updates can introduce further complications. Originally, AMS2 would crash to desktop (CTD) when trying to edit session settings in certain modes. Just hours after the update had dropped, a hotfix was deployed, however. Another one followed the next day, looking to remedy other minor issues that the community had pointed out.
You can find the full Automobilista 2 v1.5.5.5 changelog below, as well as all changes that both of the hotfixes have introduced.
And what comes next for AMS2? According to Simioni, “this should be our last public update to AMS2 for at least a couple of months as we switch focus to new longer term developments.” This could refer to the multiplayer overhaul that is on Reiza’s list of improvements, as well as classic Le Mans content that is also planned.
