Motion doesn't work when using Crew Chief and Automobilista 2 at the same time

If you are using Automobilista 2 and Crew Chief at the same time, motion will not working unless you follow the steps below:

  1. Ensure Crew Chielf is closed and not running
  2. Open Automobilista 2 and load into the game on the track
  3. Motion should be working with Sim Racing Studio
  4. Close Automobilista 2
  5. Open Crew Chief
  6. Open Automobilista 2 again.
  7. Both Automobilista 2 and Crew Chief will now work


This issue is related to Crew Chief being started prior to Sim Racing Studio detecting telemetry. Crew Chief does not forward the telemetry. Sim Racing Studio has notified the developers of Crew Chief of the issue.



Sim Racing Studio isn't saving vehicle specific profiles for Automobilista 2

If you are ALT-Tabing out of AMS2 to Windows to check other programs or to view the desktop, AMS2 will stop sending telemetry; thus Sim Racing Studio believes the game is no longer active for that vehicle, and switches back to a default motion profile for the game.


If you are unable to Alt-Tab, please try using the Profile Manager to edit the vehicle motion profile before launching the game.
