    Hi all,

    I'm having an issue with RFactor 2.

    The game used to work, and it stopped functioning after a game update.

    The issue is quite simple, when I launch RF2, the launch process is initiated and I can see the loading screen but it never goes through. The game is not even crashing, it just simply doesn't load and stops running.

    I uninstalled the game, reinstalled it, removed the user data folder, removed all workshop content... it simply fails to work.

    Thank you

    @Damien Mauric Try installing the runtimes in Support\Runtimes. All 4 of them.

    You really should make a new thread, rather than jump on this one, and give more information. That said, the trace says your video config is invalid. Have you run the video config tool?

    Is this a new install?
