    Hi guys, don't know if anyone else is having these issues but am having two, very different ones with the McLaren MP4-8 and MP4-13.

    The MP4-8, is forcing the automatic shifting although in the Options I have automatic shifting off. At Zandvoort, I leave the pits in manual shifting, but after turn one it shifts automatically, both in upshifting and downshifting. Can't undo it, am not even driving the car anymore, for lack of fun.

    The MP4-13, haven't even been able to complete two laps, because the game crashes all the time. On any track, official. Yesterday, with the GT3 cars, also with the Endurance pack, completed full stints at Zandvoort, no issues. As soon as I switch to the MP4-13, can't even complete two laps. THIS IS NOT NORMAL!

    are you selecting 'OFF' for auto shifts in difficulty settings or in garage settings ?

    The Setup Options at the Track specify whether or not you have Auto-Shiting on Up & Down (Garage -> General), you may also want to turn off the AID 'Auto Shifting' by pressing the F7 key when on Track (cycle through the options until it's Off)

    It sounds to me like you are not using the latest build, check the Steam branch you are on.

    I just have tried it.
    The MP4-13 on zandvoort gp without chicane.
    The only thing that crashes is me, while pushing too hard. :D

    Hey guys,

    I do not have any options in garage->general to switch auto-shifting off for the MP4/8. I can only modify gear ratios, that is all...
    I have the 1.07 version of the car

    I managed to fix it, it was caused by the 1988 UI, once I removed it the option is showing up. Thanks a lot
