    My Showroom under "Tuning" is blacked-out after the last rFactor 2 update.
    The menu on the right side is oke, but the showroom with the car itself is all black-out.

    Does anyone else have the same problem and how do you fix it?

    Thanks in advance for your help.

    John

    See if you have a 3rd party showroom loaded.

    Thanks for your reply. No, I don't have a third party showroom.
    The showroom does work in the DEV option.

    I solved the problem by installing a third party showroom (ASR OWC Showroom v3.1), which is really nice, and the lights stay on!

    Thanks for your reply guys.

    Found what it was. There was a third party showroom ... from the F1 1988 mod. Had forgotten all about it.
    Switched back to Hangar and all was fine :)

    That's interesting. Something blew out all my race events. When I redid them in the MAS2 editor and clicked Package to build the thing, I got a message that the Hangar showroom wasn't installed. I removed it from the package and it "compiled" fine and installed and works fine. When I looked at the package window in the launcher, it showed that the Hangar showroom was installed. I did not pursue it any further because I'm hardly ever in the showroom anyway.

    um, i don't really want to bring back this topic but i'm having the problem here, the new showroom blacked out again and install 3rd-party ones didn't help either
    so if anyone don't mind, hope you can help me

    My showroom had also stopped working, I generated a clean file, and managed to locate
    the error, inside the player.json, locate in
    "Game Options" line "Display Driver Stats" and "Display Track Stats" change from "true" to "false"
    save and check if the showroom is working again
