Hey, enter is the toggle for switching between neutral and auto shifting modes, it's not a gear switch key. You switch gears by "<" and ">" (by default). To put to reverse you need to gear down until you reach reverse.
Yeah, i understood that. What I was saying was that hitting enter/trying to set it to auto rather than manual would sometimes take a few tries. Additionally, when I'd go into reverse with <, it would also turn off auto gearbox, meaning i would need to press enter again. Hope that makes sense.
You must be playing an old version. The first version had an issue where auto shifter would switch to neutral, that's has been fixed in the first update.
There is a kind of a blue light (more like a filter) that appears in front of the car and covers all the map. My PC is pretty old so it might be not a game issue. Is the car supposed to be all black btw? Only the windows have texture.
