Automobilista 2 V1.5.5.5 Now Live

Automobilista 2

Automobilista 2 once again puts you in the driving seat of an advanced and diverse racing simulator - now with incredible graphical quality, high-profile cars and tracks, advanced dynamic track condition system and VR support.

This is the final complementary update to this Le Mans dev cycle, wrapping up all art development of the track with the remaining trackside objects. It also wraps up all V1.5.X physics developments and introduces another batch of AI developments which should again bring another notable improvement in their ability to race each other as well as the player. Save for some force majeure issue or a minor hotfix over the weekend 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.
