Mod "GT3SeriesFebruary2021 1.1" references a non-existent component "Silverstone_2016 2.10". could this be my problem? Thanks for reading and maybe helping ;-)
try to install the runtimes that are in support, I imagine that you will also have verified the cache
yeah, the runtimes (repair/install) was part of that youtube video... i did that two times without success... :-(
@Hocician Rename the Folder ..\rFactor 2\UserData into UserData_backup for Example and then start the Game. Does that help?
Those errors occur when you have or had a mod that used old versions of the Portland, Sebring & Indianapolis tracks. Often from online racing. Sebring is currently up to v1.28 & 1.29. Portland is v1.06. Indy is v1.11 & 1.12. So you can see the error messages are referencing the GT3 Series which used those tracks, all of which are now out of date. If you raced that GT3 series via the Competition System, then you need to find that listed...I think in the Steam Workshop. If it was a private server that you joined, you might have a GT3 mod listed in the packages screen. By default, the mods are listed near the bottom of the list. Also the Mod Manager program might be able to locate that mod. If you find it...delete/un-install the mod.
I have the exact same problem now. I can try triple screens again, but in V it does start for me, but normal 1440p single screen I get this black screen
I did make this UserData replacement via renaming it ... this did help... game is starzing now... ;-)
hey Remco - yeah, the missing track and so on because of old comp system files did work - dont have that failures anymore... Thank you!
