This game wont stop crashing while racing

[N4zbr0cK]

I can't play this game anymore, since the last update, my game won't stop crashing.
I am not playing on a toaster, I have 32GB RAM, 3070ti, R5 3600, ...
And this game keeps crashing, I reinstalled it today, first race, crash after a few laps, I reope, the game, I crash in the menus.
When playing ACC for example, no problem at all.
Has anyone the same issue ? did you find a solution ?

I would check your drivers,i did a couple races today about 45 min and zero crashes, it actually never crashes.

I already went driving for 2h nonstop and it did not crash and also used it for 2h changing car and track, also not crashing.

I had the game crashing a few times. It was because of me undervolting my graphics card a bit to aggressively.

Other than that I only had short freezes due to my wheel loosing it's connection. The problem disappeared once I switched my usb-port.

same constant crashing , no rhyme nor reason to it ..

[MiamiVice]

Crashing here too. 3900x + 3070ti +32 RAM. Instaled new drivers , all max graphics settings, all min graphics setings and it keeps crashing.

Yes. In a thread right next to this thread with similar title.

Try:
- cleaning you computer of dust,
- downclocking you GPU,
- rolling back to a previous graphics driver,
- updating to the latest graphics driver,
- verifying game files on Steam
etc

Its smth in your computer. Just look at any thread in the internet discussing random game crashes

yep, newest patch is a constant crash fest... No other game crashes for me like AMS2 does

edit - The crashes for me at least seem to be track and possibly car related. I cannot complete even a single 10 lap race on Road Atlanta without the game crashing, but I was able to complete a 10 lap race on Jacarepaguá Historic 2005 without any issues even with 40 cars in the race.

And again I played it nonstop for hours and no problem.

It definitelly have some problems but not with my specs (that are not the newest stuff, a 12400f with 32GB DDR4 and a 1660ti.

Done all of those things, none of them help.

No other game has these issues except AMS2.

Plenty of other people are having issues with this game.

Just because it works on your system doesn't mean that the game isn't broken.

Just because the game does not work at yours dont mean it is broken either.
Driver updates, OS updates, Steam updates, faulty game update, something being a problemw ith your GPU, CPU, RAM, etc, anything can cause a problem but if the game was the problem there would not be anyone "without issues", if "everyone had issues" then the game would be the problem.

[Bernhard]

but if the game was the problem there would not be anyone "without issues", if "everyone had issues" then the game would be the problem.

This is not true at all.

Yes it is, maybe something AMS2 uses that other games that dont present the issue dont use, but it is not game fault if it is not for everyone, game is just highlighting some other problem within your computer, be it hardware or software.

It is the game's fault. You add nothing but noise to this thread.

I finally figured something out. I was finally able to complete a full race on Road Atlanta. The culprit seems to be something in the Documents\Automobilista 2 folder.

I deleted the entire folder and the crashes stopped happening. (The game will recreate the folder and all the files in it on launch)

This will reset all in-game settings, but you can set them back exactly the same as they were before. Whatever is causing the problem it is not a setting you can change in the UI.

You have to delete the Documents\Automobilista 2 folder manually. The folder will still remain even if you uninstall/reinstall the game.

Ok, it is the game at fault, for some reason I and plenty of other players have a different version of AMS2 that for some reason has not been updated to us since "at least" feb 18 of this year (the day of this topic) and you are right, it is the game fault, we just have a completely different version despite our AMS2 version is up to date, makes perfect sense.
