Game sometimes crashes while trying to add human player to racers list. When I relaunch game and go into my (player) statistics, I can see integer overflow in window. Please note that I had some circuits before game started to crash.

Expected Behaviour
The game should not crash when trying to add human player to racers list.
The game should not mess up my driver statistics with integer overflow.

Reproducible: sometimes (sorry, this kind of bugs are hard to reproduce)

Reproduction
Click on human player to add it to list.
If you're lucky - game should crash. Then relaunch game and go to your driver (the one that crashed game) statistics to see integer overflow.

I don't know if this is a real bug, please comment on this:

Situation: In a race with AI's, I want to go to the pits. Unfortunately I collidie with an AI and he is pushed into the pits as well. Then he passes the speed limiter, but he want's to go back on the track, because he still follows the normal race line. If the AI manages to come back on the track, he will drive along the circuit with activated pit speed limiter, because he didn't passed the end of the pits.

Expected Behaviour
Two possibilities: 1. The AI should make a pitstop, although he didn't needs one
or 2. The speed limiter should be switched off, when the AI drives on the racetrack (maybe there should be a limit of 30 seconds, and after that limit the pit speed limiter is switched off automatically).

Reproduction
That happens not very often. There are not many tracks, where this situation is possible.

Not sure why, but I've been noticing some issues recently that I hadn't before. I've spent quite some time today trying to replicate them, but I can't figure out what causes them as they sometimes just occur... I realise neither of these are detrimental to the game, but thought they were worth mentioning anyway.

When setting up a championship, the first race starts immediately without demonstrating the lap record box.

Expected Behaviour
The game should, upon clicking the 'start' button show the first track with the track record detail box, but sometimes this doesnt appear and the lights start going out straight away.

Reproducible: No, it just seems to happen sometimes. I've tried with tracks where a previous record exists and tracks I've never raced on as the first event, but it doesnt seem to make any odds, just sometimes it happens and I don't know why.

Reproduction
Set up a championship, click start, if you're lucky it will occur

When exiting a season mid race, hitting the return key on the confirmation dialogue box causes the game to exit fullscreen mode.

Expected Behaviour
Game should remain in fullscreen mode if this option is checked.

Reproducible: Again occasionally, but more frequent than issue 1

Reproduction
Ensure Fullscreen mode is checked. Set up a championship, click start, part way through the race, pause and click end season. on the confirmation box that appears, hit the return key on the keyboard. The screen goes black for a split second and returns in 'windowed mode' but the window in my case is larger than my screen. I then have to go to the options menu to re-tick fullscreen mode.

When I try to edit a track using paint, on my desktop computer, importing the lmap back into TE works fine, but when I try to import an lmap into TE on my laptop, the lmap that is displayed is all black and white (see image attached).

Expected Behaviour

Importing lmaps into TE should function normally in full colour

Reproduction

[*]Open new file in TE
[*]Export lmap into paint
[*]Import lmap back into TE

System Configuration
[*]Laptop
[*]Windows 7 with Intel Core i5, Nvidia GEFORCE GT, Nvidia Optimus, ...aaand I don't really know much else in terms of hardware
[*]Desktop Computer
[*]Windows XP... but I dont really know what the hardware is on this computer...sorry..

EDIT: never mind. Someone told me that it was because of the version of paint on windows 7. I've downloaded paint XP and it works fine now.

Problem
Importing LMap sometimes making bug, grass have got tarmac colour and tarmac have got grass's colour but not always.

You can see bug when you want import LMap.

Expected Behaviour
LMap should be imported with true colours.

Reproduction
Open TE
Import LMap
Land have got wrong colours (not always!)

System Configuration

PROBLEM:
When you are racing with AIs, and when they are going to the pits, they fully change tyres and re full fuel, they have still red F, instead position(More info in pictures)

System Configuration:
Windows XP SP3, Intel Celeron 1.0GHZ, 256 RAM, Integrated graphics 64mb.

Ps: don't worry, I have already bought new computer.

Does anyone actually read these anymore?

Problem
I simply can't drive as fast with other cars on the track. No matter how fast I drive with the same settings,
my lap times are always slower when racing against others than when doing a time trial alone, and it's not due to traffic.
The car feels not as grippy as when driving alone.

Observed in v1.2? Yes
Observed in v1.10c? No idea
Observed in v1.05? No

Expected Behaviour
You should be able to drive as fast with other cars on the track as if you drove alone.

Reproduction
Choose a car, a track and enough laps.
Go drive alone.
Keep your eye on the lap times.

After you've finished, keep everything the same except that you choose one or more AI against you.
Alternatively, choose another human driver and drive the car off the road.
Go drive again.
Let the AI go for some time so you don't catch them very soon and have free room to drive.

No matter what you do, you simply aren't able to do as fast lap times.

The game crashes when I end a few 1-race-seasons after each other (always happens to me when I make screens for Car of the Month). However when I use the "end Race" button it doesn't crash.

Expected Behaviour
The game should not crash when I end 1-race seasons quickly after each other, like it doesn't crash when you press "end race" (edit: ok it also crashes with the "end race" button but not so often. I also noticed that it crashes more often if you always keep the same player).

Reproduction

1. Select 1 track and player
2. select a car
3. Start race
4. press f12 while the lights go off
5. press esc before the race started
6. press "end season"
7. repeat steps 2-6 a few times

The game still does not seem to properly save and load timed races. I load a series that is supposed to be 5 minute races, and it is some time greater than 5 minutes. The autosave seems to be the only one that works right most of the time. Named saves often seem to mess up.

Expected Behaviour
Saves should always load with the correct race time.

Reproduction
Start a series with multiple races and time limit setting.
Run one race, then advance to the next race.
Save game before starting next race.
Exit series.
Load series.
Start Race. Time will be incorrect.

System Configuration
Operating System: Windows 7 64 bit Home Premium
Hardware: Pentium Dual-Core T4500 2.30 GHz, 4GB RAM

EDIT: It worked when set compatibility mode to Windows XP. Yet I believe this should not happen. Feel free to disregard this as a bug if you think this solution is enough.

When using a clean install on a clean folder, the game crashes the moment I try to race.
When trying for the second (and later) time, the game crashes at the startup.
Reason of crash: can't find supported resolutions (even if my resolution is not custom and I selected it from inside GR menu)

Expected Behaviour
GeneRally shouldn't crash.

Although I set the race distance to 5 mins (+2 laps), the game used the previous settings (20 km) during my following timetrial.

Expected Behaviour
The game should use the race distance that is actually set.

Reproduction

1. Start the game.
2. Change the format of the race distance to minutes (+ 2 laps), which was by default set to kilometers.
3. Change the actual race distance (in my case from 20 km to 5 mins).
4. Run a timetrial using these settings.
5. After having completed the timetrial, go back to the main menu and tab out of the game.
6. Tab back in and choose a new track.
7. Run another timetrial.
8. The problem might now occur as indicated by the lap counter. The lap counter should now display the number of laps equivalent to the previously set race distance - 1/39 laps (= 20 km) in my example. There is no 5 minute clock ticking either.
9. Return to the main menu.
10. The race distance in the top right corner is still set to what you intended to race (5 mins in my case).

Some of these steps may be irrelevant. It is just a report of what I did when it happened to me.
