    Hi all , help required please , have been playing RF2 for 2 to 3 months now with no problems
    today I purchased the BMW M2 CS , when loading the track and car I get a error message 5 times before I can run the sim , which seems to work fine .

    Error says , g motor 2 error , error loading mesh file unknown-token -plights to memory.
    in the workshop I cant find the BMW M2 although in steam it shows that I'm subscribed to it.

    have tried various things like unsubscribing and subscribing , it shows the car being installed.
    I have also verified the game files , your help please

    Same here, I deleted the BMW M2 CS folder in vehicles but nothing changes after the automatic reinstallation. Some cars have yellow skins :-(

    so has anyone have any ideas on how to fix this DLC issue , It looks like the dlc car files aren't loading correctly in-game making some of the cars appear as yellow box like cars , also I cant see the BMW M2 in the workshop only in the steam inventory

    @Pyney can you show a screenshot of your rF2\Installed\Vehicles\BMW_M2_CS_2020 folder?

    *maybe also put a trace file here (attach it), there's a sticky thread in the tech support forum on how to do a trace file.

    It is indeed a bug that also occurs within the showroom but no idea what is causing it. Turning off skin transfers worked for me and others with the same issue under settings > display.

    Worth noting that the error is in a window UNDER the rFactor 2 application and you must click 'ok'. Sometimes you load into the game but other times it crashes the application.

    It seems to happen when the game tries to reload / redownload cars as it happens every time you hit ESC in a multiplayer session and there are vehicles that have joined the game that aren't loaded in yet. Turning skin transfer off fixes the crash.

    Don't go to settings when on a multiplayer server. Do it in the main menu. It's under 'Display'.
