Steam overlay is causing alot of issues with the crashes a deletion of files.
I recieved an instant message from a friend while in game last night, which I clicked on by habit.......overlay froze, game froze, control + alt + delete got me to my home screen but nothing was responding a full reboot was needed. After the reboot gsc would not launch from either the steam library or quick start tab. I checked the integrity of the files in properties and the report came back with 25 missing files. Back up working once the files were re installed

Track & Layout Used: Johannesburg Historic
Car Used: Formula Retro
Applicable Settings: None
Report: Whenever I start a race the engine is dead. I have to use the start button to get it working. I often mess up the start as a result because there's not enough time. No difference if I qualify or just do a quick race. In practice the engine starts on its own just fine.
Steps to reproduce: Just start a race.

Jut a quick one

I Can't switch from game to desktop and back. It switches back so you can hear the game, has the mouse pointer but does not bring the IU.I game to front. Have to force close/reload.

Could switch no problem with gsce v.1.21. Same installation/same nvidia drivers/ gsce set up/driver settings/game video settings etc.

Hi! First, I'd like to express thanks to Reiza for their excellent sim (my current favorite)!

Track & Layout Used: Any
Car Used: Any
Applicable Settings: Shadows: High (haven't tried other levels other than Off)
Report: Flickering/flashing shadows and black artifacts since 1.30 first released. No issues on prior builds, no settings or hardware changes, newest graphics drivers (GTX 670, driver build 347.88). Occurs on both non-Steam and Steam installs of the game. Tried removing SweetFX and not using Nvidia DSR, nothing like that helps, sadly. No mods are installed, either; it's a vanilla game aside from SweetFX.
Steps to reproduce: Well.. not sure, since the only other person I know that has SCE isn't having this issue and nothing we have tried has made it happen on his machine.

Here is a video clip (4 minutes, 160 MB, MP4) showing exactly what's happening:

Thanks for any help or suggestions!

Hi ! it's me again...
got a little issue in the cockpit view (in the mirror)

If you're playing with modded cars (i.e., not Reiza original content), then it is a mod conversion problem. Some mods are poorly converted and present artifacts in mirrors. The only way to get rid of them is to set Self In Cockpit Rearview="0" in .PLR file.

Seems to be from moving POV back? Generally you´d do better to raise / lower the FOV than changing the POV back / forth.

triple screen setup 5960 x 1080 with multi view enabled the mirrors in the mitsubishi all reflect the same images

Edit If you delete your user profile and create a new one the mirrors will reflect the proper image again

Other issue:

Device input loss:
After deleting my user file and running a check integrity in game stock car properties i created a new user file and set my wheels ffb up when in game if i returned to the garage in session and altered and wheel options ex. increase/decrease ffb strength when returning to track all wheel and pedal functions become unresponsive and a ffb reset does nothing and must exit to the home screen. In control settings all inputs are functioning.

Track map Flickering:
using a triple screen setup 5950 x 1080 max graphic settings x2 AA ingame with vsync on the track map flickers and causes a screen tear across the side monitors at the top and bottom of the track map. With vsync off the tears are gone but map still flickers and overall smoothness of the game is choppy even at 100 fps

Hi guys any help appreciated, I too cannot get to Q 2 even when on pole, the main menu only let's me select 0 or 1 for tracks. The extreme rfm has qualifying type at 2 for F1 style but always only 1. Do I have to edit the track gbd or something?
please help

The Q1/Q2/Q3 system appeared briefly a few versions ago (maybe 1.20 or thereabouts). It has been temporarily removed while a bug is fixed. In the meantime, you can only choose 0 or 1 qualifying sessions, but you can still see it listed in the rfm. Hopefully we'll see it back soon.

 

[Colin O Callaghan]

Ah ok, thought I did something wrong, what about fuelling on extremes, dont see any option to put more fuel on pitstops?

 

[Colin O Callaghan]

Thanks by the way

I have version 1.31 and have spent the last 8 hours doing all sorts of tests, the AI dont change compounds at all, i have tried several tracks to no avail. Please Help.

 

[Colin O Callaghan]

I have gone back and installed GSC up till v1.21 and they do change tyre compounds, is anyone else not getting ai changing compounds in v1.31?? I can only achieve this by assigning manually setups to each team which is time consuming.
