    Get missing component don`t work 100% .

    If you have uninstalled components (track, car, sound, talent etc.) witch is not installed and belongs to to vmod, get missing component don`t work. Error: Check server URL............ (there is nothing wrong with server URL)

    Solution is to install all uninstalled components or uninstall and delete all uninstalled components witch belongs to vmod.

    This bug has been around for a long time and creates a lot of confusion for the end users. It would be nice if GetMod would check all the rfcmps in the packages folder before attempting to download and if one of them matches the requested sig, simply install it rather than skipping it and then failing.

    Had no problems downloading missing parts or joining the server. I'm liking this build.

    The scenario Ari is describing is very specific. But it does happen and is very easy to duplicate.

    I was trying to give some feedback, but don't know why, I'm unable to join your test servers, no problem with stable ones. I even disabled W7 firewall, which I never needed to do before, but no way, it's a mistery to me.
    At first, none of the components was installed in my build, and a couple of the required ones were downloaded and installed (car and talent fron ISI), but always some was failing. Packages folder was empty before each attempt, and rfactor2 completely restarted, but never got to downolad LL_Sebring, even when that was the only missing component, as I had installed the rest, just to test.

    Anyway, thanks for running a test server, as it was the only one, because ISI Oficial GT becames red and showing to be running build 770 with Clios after clicking on it!

    You can download Sebring here: http://109.189.111.181/website/Skippy/LL_Sebring_Virtua_LM_v1.90.rfcmp

    If you can not download Sebring it is user issue, you PC refuses web server and it is same if it is ISI or Fun2Race.net web server. There is 3 Fun2Race members who has this issue with build 770 also.
    If you can download and join it can bee build but most likely there is something wrong with you game, can bee some corrupted files etc.

    There is something wrong with the getmod thingy. I tried to connect to the server. Downloaded the rfmod without problems. When I try to download the components nothing happens. It shows a screen with download is queued (LL_Sebring) and that's it. If I go back and exit rF2 and the launcher a new rFactor2 process will be created. Just closed 4 of them running nice and silent in the background. In the packages folder I've found a 8kb file "LL_Sebring_Virtua_LM.rfcmp". I deleted the file and tried again. Same result. Now the rfcmp is 14kb.

    I have uninstalled and deleted LL_Sebring_Viritual_LM, Skip_Barber sound 1.46, Skip_Barber_talent 1.46, skip_barber_car 1.46 and vmod -F2R-Skippy_at_Sebring- and I went to MP and get missing component works fine to me.

    I have also -Fun2Race.net-13- dedicated server online.
    vmod: -F2R-SPCL2_Miata-v94-
    Track: Mills Metro Park

    No, I can't. Firefox shows the download dialog almost 10 seconds after clicking the link (not a good beginning), and then download gets stucked at 12.5 Kilobytes and reports a estimated time of 10 days to complete. Tried Chrome and same result, so I would say there is some issue with that host, and of course, Get Missing components works almost all the time, but not always, ISI needs to work more on it

    Tried also server 13 and same result, the only missing component for me is Miata, which rfactor2 tries to download but never does

    I just tested this with v789 64bit. rF2 downloaded, installed and loaded track perfectly.

    Considering you have also problems loading the track directly with your browser, i'm pretty shure it doesn't have something to do with rF2.
    Maybe your ISP, router or your PC, try to reset your PC/router/modem.
    How are other servers, "Youtube" for example?

    Both downloading of track within rF2 or with Firefox (11min.) worked fine here.

    What is your provider? Pink T here. Looks like a Schlandnet problem to me. Maybe Ari's provider hasn't paid enough money to connect to the Telekom backbone. Routing is via Level3.
    I tried to download the file with firefox and it downloads with <1kb/s. No rFactor 2 problem.

    If you don't know what Schlandnet is check this out.

    Hi Tosch, mine is Kabel Deutschland.

    Just tried again to download the track with Firefox, had about 175kB, estimated downloadtime was 7min.

    Interesting stuff in the video, watched only some parts so far. Have to work tomorrow morning, so i go to bed now. :)
    I will take a closer look tomorrow.

    My ISP is Telenor and it is owned by the Norwegian state and is the second largest company in Norway.I find it hard to believe that TeleNor has not paid to the Telekom backbone.
    There is few Fun2Race.net members who has also this problem but nobody is from Germany.

    Clockit (reply #5) had the same problem. I think he made new install of windows and as you can see all is working fine now.
    It is pity there is no other servers online to find out where problem is.
