Sorry to have to tell you this Thijmen, but you in game name and your forum name must be exactly the same.
Please start a new profile, (or edit your name in game if you can).
I know its a bit of a hassle but its needed for things behind the senes, all to do with stat tracking and points allocation and other things i dont understand!

 

[Scott Woodwiss]

I'll give this a go! Just downloaded this mod last night, such an awesome selection of cars to drive.

Are we going use the 2.0b update? That's the version I have and I got a mismatch in the server.

Is this going to be updated to the new version just released? Otherwise I won't be able to race tonight.

 

[Von Butters]

Sorry Scott, I hadnt noticed your question, been horizontal for a few hours due to my back being a swine.
As for now, were still using version 2.0, i havent had a look at the new update yet, and as were still trying to get this club off the ground, its what were sticking with for now.
Sorry if thats too much of a problem for you, but theres not a lot of interest atm, but if we get a few more people playing regular, then we might extend into the addons too.

 

[Valerio Vinassa]

again only Ferry and me on server
and again GREAT battles

Thanks Christopher and RD for event

 

[Redvaliant]

A great mod, but like most rfactor mods, there are just too many variables to deal with online: track mismatches; patch mismatches etc. I always go for the latest vs of mods/tracks just to get on the most servers most of the time. This deserves to be a full grid, but the curse of endless versions and configurations leaves you having to cherry pick where you race. if/when you jump to 2B, I'll try and join in.

 

[James Chant]

The is why we provide a link to the versions that are installed on the server, to avoid mismatches.

It is a huge drain on resources to keep te-uploading full size mods - in fact I am paying myself to host the files on mediafire until the RD storage is up and running.

If someone can provide me a decent link to patch for version 2b I will happily upload that too, but not the whole mod as there isn't disk space at the moment.

 

[Von Butters]

I'll have a look in to it this afternoon James, see what's out there

 

[Eck Simpson]

Unfortunately, although version 2.0b (2.02) doesn't change any game files (that cause mismatch) it is a complete change in the way the texturtes are used (Shaders instead of alpha channels). This means its a complete download, for the mod atm.

But, because there are no file changes or updates, if you've installed v2.0b, revert to the v2.0a rFm file. You'll get on the server without mismatch. (remember to retain (back up) your v2.0b rFm, if/when the server is updated, you just change it back.)

I've done it, elsewhere.
