The BEST F1 1991 Sim Racing Experience Just Got Even Better!

[@Rikalonius]

I would drive the heck of that 643. I love this era. This was the first year I watched a full season of F1, having just gotten into it in 1990.

[@tbainbridge]

Agree with you dude. 90s F1 era in this game is the best. Always look forward to playing it.

[@Post_grad]

Pretty amazing race!! It was pretty entertaining :)

[@AnotherWatchChannel]

Just found your channel. Love your AMS2 content Timo! I’ve been playing AMS2 for about 3 years off and on. Classic formula 1 of any era is amazing in this game. The historic tracks make me drool….like Adelaide 1988… I had no idea that was formerly an F1 track.. the AI fight brilliantly and the sounds are incredible along with the intense FFB. It’s hard not to neglect my kids to play more of this lol.

[@carlosbike]

I'm Brazilian and it's unbelievable how here in Brazil we don't give due value to this Simulator. Congratulations on the initiative to make the Video. You have gained another subscriber.

[@TimoDick]

Hi, Carlos, thank you very much! About 10 % of my subs are from Brazil, and I guess it's mainly due to my AMS 2 contents. But it may become more! 😇 Through AMS 2 I myself have learned a lot about Brazilian racing series. The Brazilian Stock Car Pro Series has become one of my favs in the game and also overall.

Awesome content mate

[@BadWallaby]

with 6 speed h pattern ams2 classic f1 cars is my absolute favorite sim racing experience

[@guitartube5822]

I am BRAND NEW to sim racing and I’m totally hooked! We were buying games for our VR over Christmas on sale and I thought a racing game might be fun. So I bought AMS2. Grabbed an Xbox controller and plugged it into my sons PC. Within a week I had ordered the Moza R5 bundle with a brake pedal upgrade. Now that I have had that for a couple weeks, I wish I’d of gone bigger! I am loving the classic Formula 1 stuff but I have a ton to learn! I am a Mac user so the whole PC thing with mods is new to me. I’ve been learning about this late 80’s early 90’s era of racing and now making this authentic is a must do! So I have to figure all this out now! Subbed!

[@TimoDick]

Thanks so much, made my day! Glad you got into sim racing. No shilling, but what finally really made me more consistent was the purchase of a proper alu sim rig where everything is fixed, firm and sturdy.

[@guitartube5822]

@@TimoDick Hey! Thanks for the reply! I bought a Next Level Racing rig I can fold up and store, its quite sturdy. Now I need to add a proper seat, although this setup allows consistent and fixed placement of the seat. Are there any tutorials for the installation of the mods? I am looking at some DLC for AMS2 today... 😎

This game is all around an AMAZING open wheel sim, not just for F1, but for IndyCar too. CART at Long Beach and Laguna are a great experience in VR. Just a shame they couldn't get the real IR-18 chassis in the game.

[@leandrosouza9875]

I cannot believe they raced these cars with an h pattern shifter. It's beyond crazy. Fantastic video Timo. Very difficult taming that beast

This is Awesome im def getting AM2 wow ,big up Timo

[@BuxWV149]

👍Thanks Timo. I didn't know about the sound mod.

[@TimoDick]

True. The champions of the 80s and early 90s knew how not to crash there 😁 Jokes aside, when did that term come up? 1999 with Schumacher's crash? Or even later?

[@blablabla1612]

@@TimoDick Yes, Schumacher, Hill and Villeneuve had crashes there that year. But it was already the slower chicane.

theres a murry walker addon for crewchief at race department if you want more immersion.

Thank you so much for this video and the links for the mod.... it´s amazing!!.. keep doing this with more cars and seasons... thank you so much.

[@My40Love]

What a great race Timo!

[@blablabla1612]

Habe eine kleine Meisterschaft mit den 91er-Autos absolviert und dabei für jedes Rennen das AI-File so editiert, dass genau die Fahrer ausschieden wie damals in der Saison. Klappte einwandfrei...😊

[@TimoDick]

Da hast du mich: Welche Werte hast du wie verändert? Trotz vieler Experimente mit den Mistake- und Reliability-Werte finden ich, passiert immer noch etwas zu wenig in Bezug auf Fahrfehler und DNF.

[@blablabla1612]

@@TimoDick In der Zeile "" kann man auch negative Werte vergeben (in den übrigen Parametern funktioniert das nicht). Wenn Du z.b. willst, dass ein Fahrer sehr früh ausscheidet, kannst Du ihm den Wert "-5.0" geben, er fährt dann nicht lange. Auch noch höhere negative Werte sind natürlich möglich. In den Spieleinstellungen habe ich "Random failures" aktiviert und auf "sync to race" gestellt. Wenn Du möchtest, dass Dein eigener Bolide durchhält, solltest Du bei hohen positiven Werten wie z. B. "0.9" bleiben. Vor den Änderungen das originale AI-File sichern, damit Du später nicht alles händisch wiederherstellen musst. Klappt mit den Open Wheelern ziemlich gut, mit Klassen wie P1 weniger, weil diese Wagen bereits so standfest sind, dass sie auch bei sehr niedrigen Werten meist durchhalten. Hier ein Link zu einem kleinen Testrennen, da habe ich es übertrieben und nur 10 Fahrer sahen die Zielflagge:😅 kzbin.info/www/bejne/jWicYnSDa92Iqqs

[@blablabla1612]

Ein Zusatz: Erst vor dem Rennen die Werte vergeben, sonst scheiden die Piloten mit schlechten Werten bereits im Training/Qulifying aus. Im Championship-Modus aber kein Problem, weil man da nach dem Quali vor dem Rennstart aus dem Spiel gehen kann.

Fantastic Timo!

[@robbienl8176]

This is how games should be.

[@razorgp1]

2:13 the modded sounds are a bit all over the place tbh. these need a bit more work in optimizing the rpm ranges and the blending into each other.

[@blablabla1612]

Williams already had a semiautomatic gearbox with paddle shifters back in 91. So, you had more stress than necessary whilst driving. 😉😊

[@m.hdez.8289]

Grandioso juego. Desde que lo descubrí a principios de este año no hay otra cosa mejor en su género.

[@edwhalley5]

The AI does seem to have unreal levels of traction out of slower corners

[@Super123ps]

After the race , If you view the replay from the A.I vehicles cockpit- They never lose grip , never slide , their traction is perfect. Reiza need to fix this. It’s so frustrating

[@dome4672]

Fantastic!!!

[@speedgoat7496]

Great content is it possible to recreate an entire f1 season in this game?

[@TimoDick]

Strictly speaking, no, since not all tracks of the 91 season are in the game. Yet 7 or 8 are in there, even in their former shape. There is a game mode called Custom Championship in which you can set pretty much everything to your liking and as authentic as you want it.

[@speedgoat7496]

@@TimoDick thanks for replying with thorough answer, I’m considering pc gaming just for this game. Are track mods not possible ie downloadable or installable.

[@TimoDick]

@@speedgoat7496 There are some track mods. But not many and not for the F1 1991 season but conversions from Project Cars tracks. AMS2 is limited in modding. Yet I have more fun with it regarding authenticity than with any other sim. I prefer having 7 times 99% authenticity over 16 times 75%.

[@davidbrown418]

Was at this race.

[@TimoDick]

Man, I envy you. Saw it live on TV, and, as a Mansell fan, I was devastasted when he DNFed on the last lap. Years later, I learned that he actually made a mistake and while waving to the fans he stalled the engine. Mansell drama at its best , always somewhere in between tragedy and stupidity.

[@MetalSimVR]

Hey Timo! WOW! Ich weiss gar nicht wo ich anfangen soll. Zunächst mal ein Riesenkompliment von mir für das was du gezeigt hast. Das war konstant super! Finde es sehr gut, dass du Rennen über eine längere Distanz fährst als die Mehrheit. Bei nur 5 Rennrunden kommt man nicht in den Genuss Situationen beim Überrunden zu meistern. Beim "Vergnügen" mit Caffi und Co kann das Herz schon mal höher schlagen, das war wirklich haarig, haste aber echt gut gemeistert. Wenn man ein so langes Rennen ins Netz stellt schauen die meisten sich nicht alles an, aber das ist ja dann deren Problem. Ich fand es mega spannend. Habe noch nie "Formel 1 20xx" gespielt und das brauche ich auch nicht, weil AMS 2 es quasi perfekt simuliert! Und alles in allem macht die KI das auch sehr gut. Kannst du deine Videos in 4K hochladen? Das wäre noch geiler. Lieben Gruss...🤘

[@TimoDick]

Hi Dominik, vielen Dank, weiß ich zu schätzen! Ich bin das Rennen 3 x mal gefahren, die hochgeladene ist die letzte Aufnahme. Da hatte ich mit dem "Drama" auch ein bisschen Glück, das lässt sich ja nicht skripten. Dass es so intensiv würde, hatte ich aber auch nicht erwartet. Die beiden anderen Rennen waren etwas zahmer. Ich sehe es wie du - längere Rennen sind auf ihre Weise viel spannender und realistischer. Und AMS 2 macht das so gut wie keine andere Sim. 4K geht leider nicht. Spiele am 49er mit 5120x1440 und capture quasi den mittleren Bildbereich in 2560x1440.

[@MetalSimVR]

@@TimoDick Danke für die schnelle Antwort Timo. 🙏 Die Qualität deiner Videos ist ja schon sehr gut. Es wäre halt für mich noch geiler anzuschauen auf meinem Apperat in 4K. Zum Glück haut das alles bei mir recht gut hin mit 4K, aber das kann ich auch erwarten mit der Hardware. Also, bis die Tage, werde bestimmt auch mal längere Rennen aufnehmen. Hau rein...🤘

[@jamesstewart1794]

Come awn

[@rexoid0800]

I just think your throttle control coming out of the corners and the very quick upshift from 2nd to 3rd is whats letting you down. You hardly use 2nd gear so your not maximizing the acceleration on exit. Short shifting to negate wheel spin instead of using less throttle and balancing the car.

[@TimoDick]

You're right. Yet, I found it too tricky too rev up completely in 1st and 2nd, the chance of wheel spin was too high for me. This was my "safe mode" to make it through at a decent pace - and to commentate at the same time.

[@rexoid0800]

@@TimoDick i know what you mean as the car is one of my favorites. It took me a long time to get the balance right myself which is why i saw it straight away. These cars are the most fun because getting it right is so hard to do but when you find that perfect limit of traction is so rewarding. Great race non the less mate!

[@michelegiammarroni6748]

Are these cars on the new tyres phisics? I cant wait to feel it in the new update

Nice video! Blue flag behaviour of the AI needs to be improved dramatically. Right now, they tend to block and push faster cars out of the race.

[@Jetghostwolf]

Timo another great video….. these cars a blast to drive. I do have a question you mentioned custom AI….. I added the 91 to my collection earlier today- does the custom AI come in the mod pack? Or is it a separate download?

It's part of the pack, yes. It's in the "User Data" folder.

[@markc3456]

Hoping the full 1.5 update includes at least some AI enhancements.
