    Use auto-updater -> new build crash
    uninstall then install lite version of new build -> new build crash
    uninstall all mods and components, uninstall core and data, install new build-> try to run with no mods or components and crash again

    That's not my problem; I don't have Sears in my Packages folder. I uninstalled all non-ISI cars and tracks, and it still won't start, even after running the lite installer.

    Yeah I was going to just write that too, that SEARS POINT RW is CRASHING THE BUILD> I see others noted this too. Good thing. Sorry Tim for asking questions and trying to get to bottom of things as well. Annoying liitle bug that.

    Also might add that the auto updater didn't work even after removing Sears Point RW for me. Only a fresh install of .298 and no installation of Sears RW, did the sim run. If I put in Sears it crashes, if I remove it, it runs. But not with the old .240 folder I had... My two cents. Thanks Guys, going to race around now

    I found my problem: IS_F_Lexus.rfmod. Like Sears, it doesn't need to be installed, just having it in the Packages folder causes the game not to start.

    I am currently looking at sears point and lexus mods to try to find the issue. About an hour of looking an I find no fault with the auto updater or the installer. Not saying this is no problem, I just cannot point a finger in that direction just yet.

    clean fresh install ( as I ususally do as always trouble free )

    not tested throughout yet, might be a slight fps improvement on the fps counter,
    seems a tad smoother,
    HDR profiles seem no good now -think they need updating -is it just my system ?????????

    shadows on replays still malfunctioning

    will test more over the weekend

    thanks

    Buffer overflow is a condition when some process tries to store data beyond the capacity of the fixed/available buffer so it tries to overwrite some other memory locations, too. And in Windows we have some security feature called Data Execution Prevention that is intended to prevent similar processes to prevent buffer overflow attacks (that can introduce some malicious codes). But in some cases DEP can prevent some legitimate software from executing, too. And then you can get a BEX error.

    I installed the build in a different folder named rf2-B298 as I always do.
    I open mod manager from launcher and pointed at my general package folder located at a different folder which I use for all the installations of rF2 I have.
    SearsPoint is within the components in Package folder.
    I run the game without any problem after installing some components to try it out.

    Clean install is always the safest way to install rF2.

    Thx ISI!

    I had no issues whatsoever, auto updater worked like a charm.

    Just driven a few laps in the Vette on different circuits.
    FPS improvement here is very nice and welcome, nice job there.
    But I noticed also there are some subtle changes in the FFB and the grip levels. Feels like the car has more grip, or the tires are more bending whilst turning, lol don't know how to say it in english :p.

    Have to try that with the skipy, should be more pronounced there I guess.

    Just did a few laps on Lime Rock Park, much better FPS for me. Will do more testing over the weekend and if any problems will report back.

    Tried to update. Failed. Looks like it switched drives? My G drive was empty and now has this in it G:\RFACTOR 2\Updates\240\298

    Only did the update out of curiosity and will be doing a fresh install but thought it might help to have the info :)
