It crashes to desktop after like at 75% of loading in devmod without any error. I think i did everything like in tutorials. Used Joesville speedway and changed everything i should. Track is exported with 3dsimed from shift1. it has xsectors and im out of ideas. Im totally new to this.
Track don't need AIW file just add some road or terrain to position [0,0,0] in order to drive. Check X<objects> ( Xsectors, Xfinish, Xpitin, xpitout) 80% is Xobjects.
x<object are in gmts and in scn file so it should be fine. Where do i add road or terrain? I think it has something to do with commonmaps.mas. to get the track loading i need this file in moddev\location folder. If i delete commonmaps.mas from it and from scn track stopes loading exactly at the same time just with error that no skidmarks texture can load etc.
how you load it in dev mode? are you loading a complete race weekend? in this case the safety car spot is missing (no AIW -> no spot) and causes a crash. be sure you've only the practise session enabled, maybe this is the prob. another prob could be that the game has a problem loading the tdf file. in the gdb you have this line TerrainDataFile=..\JoesVille_Speedway.tdf check if the tdf is in the right location or edit the path of this entry to fit.
im trying to load in practice only mode (private practice, AI=0). TerrainDataFile seems to be right too.
you need common.maps , check for missing { } brackets, and correct x.....files are written correct, eg:xpitin etc
If the issue is still there after checking the above is correct ......make sure you have no material names larger than 32 characters.
xobjects seems fine since i just copied them. Removed all the characters longer than 32 characters but it still crashes in exactly same place

If track loads in viewer, there should not be anything fundamentaly wrong with the track. Trace file shows, that there is something wrong with AIW and for some reason dev mode could not generate temporary AIW. Copy some existing AIW file from ISI track and rename it to match your track name. Edit this AIW file's first garage spot to coords 0,0,0 or any equivalent coords, which has solid asphalt under it on your track. Try if this helps. In most cases 75% loading + ctd behaviour is caused by x-sectors or AIW. Cheers!
I tried with AIW line and it didnt help. ok guys, thanks a lot for help but im too noobish for that. I think i will give up for now. Maybe will try to export track from 3dsmax and see if it will work... Where is some deep track manual cause in dev corner for rf2 i cant find anything helpfull?
Hey kosmo1982, You're not alone... everyone here has faced one of these irritating problems trying to get something to load. Why don't you post the track here (zip file of max scene, and all the docs scn, tdf, gdb, etc.....)? Several people here will probably take it as a challenge, figure it out, post the results, and you'll know how that particular problem can happen... whatever it might be.
Might just have found your problem....are you using a vehicle mod,??? or defailt rtrainer, looks like you are using a different mod, and is crasshing on "tyre " files, and have also noticed, you are trying to load a bik file for movies, rf2 doesnt support movies yet, either one of these , or both is causing your problem...see below copy of lines from your tracelog file, if you are still learning file structures, dont play with something that isnt broke, stick with trainer car. setup.cpp 2221: ATTENTION: Skipping vehicle because the filename rter_01.veh matches an existing vehicle setup.cpp 2221: ATTENTION: Skipping vehicle because the filename rter_02.veh matches an existing vehicle vidman.cpp 1425: Trying to Play Bink File: e:\Program Files (x86)\rFactor2\ModDev\Options\MODMode\ISILogo.bik MovieMan.cpp 120: Error locating video file E:\PROGRAM FILES (X86)\RFACTOR2\MODDEV\OPTIONS\MODMODE\ISILOGO.BIK MovieMan.cpp 120: Error locating video file E:\PROGRAM FILES (X86)\RFACTOR2\MODDEV\OPTIONS\MODMODE\ISILOGO.BIK vidman.cpp 1425: Trying to Play Bink File: e:\Program Files (x86)\rFactor2\ModDev\Options\MODMode\TestingMOD.b ik MovieMan.cpp 120: Error locating video file E:\PROGRAM FILES (X86)\RFACTOR2\MODDEV\OPTIONS\MODMODE\TESTINGMOD.B IK MovieMan.cpp 120: Error locating video file E:\PROGRAM FILES (X86)\RFACTOR2\MODDEV\OPTIONS\MODMODE\TESTINGMOD.B IK vidman.cpp 1425: Trying to Play Bink File: e:\Program Files (x86)\rFactor2\ModDev\Options\MODMode\PreGame.avi MovieMan.cpp 130: Error opening AVI file E:\PROGRAM FILES (X86)\RFACTOR2\MODDEV\OPTIONS\MODMODE\PREGAME.AVI MovieMan.cpp 130: Error opening AVI file E:\PROGRAM FILES (X86)\RFACTOR2\MODDEV\OPTIONS\MODMODE\PREGAME.AVI tire_manager 1370: Non-existent tire brand "" tire_manager 1370: Non-existent tire brand " cheers
uploading files wouldnt be a good idea cause its conversion from shift1 :/ Im using rtrainer so dont know why tires doesnt load and i disabled movies in settings later to check if this is a problem, but it didnt help.
Every trace is full of weird "errors", but it looks like you do have have proper materials for startlights and pitlights... steward.cpp 2485: Could not find light "STARTLIGHT" steward.cpp 2498: Could not find glow "STARTGLOW" steward.cpp 2485: Could not find light "PITLIGHTIN" steward.cpp 2498: Could not find glow "PITGLOWIN" steward.cpp 2485: Could not find light "PITLIGHTOUT" steward.cpp 2498: Could not find glow "PITGLOWOUT" If you "borrowed" the GMTs from another tracks, you need to also add the textures. But also, as Jka says it could be missing timing gates. Or perhaps you simply do NOT have those pit/start light objects at all ?
