    2 ideas to improve mod manager and ease of use.
    Two things needed in my opinion in mod manager.
    1) A reinstall mod or component option. To fix a corrupt file without having to uninstall and reinstall numerous mods.
    I had a corrupt file in a car causing a CTD. To reinstall was a pain due to mods. Ended up doing a complete reinstall of rF2 due to failure to install a mod after uninstall. Files missing that were not actually missing.
    2) Sub-folders for tracks, cars , etc. as an option in the packages folder just to help keep things tidy and manageable. Might be possible as I have not tried it.

    I had to do a reinstall last night due to corrupt files and no easy way to repair install the game /mods.

    I saw that the verify part is in the game but did not find an easy way to have the game auto fix the issues

    Yeah!
    That aspect needs to be addressed.
    With every new build, I find myself spending a lot of time re-installing the mods.
    There should be a way to select multiple mods for re-install.

    Just highlight multiple mods/components then click 'install', no need to do each one individually.

    Thanks...
    I didn't realize that was an option.
    I take back everything I said earlier.
