    Hi I'm new to the forum, purchased the game last night and enjoying it very much at the moment. Only problem I'm having is when I set up a scripted weather pattern in the main menu, when I load to the track it appears to of loaded a random weather setting (all of the same weather setting, ambient and track temperatures) I've searched online and tried editing the .plr/json file (4-random/5-scripted) and no luck so far. I'm wondering if this is something to be included in a later build (transitions) or some error on my end
    Thanks

    Hi, firstly if you have already edited the player.JSON then back that up and start the game (this will create a Fresh JSON file) and then try again, remembering the Rain % Chance as this catches a lot of people out when they wonder "why isn't it raining yet?!" ;)

    Secondly test with an ISI track as if it's a community made or quickly hacked conversion then there could be "issues".

    Thanks for your reply it seems to be working better now, to save starting threads everywhere I've just got a few questions; is it possible to have weather on all tracks, or is it like you say dependent on the track itself (quick conversions etc.) also I cant seem to change the length of practice sessions (stuck at 30 hours!) Are there any mods/W.I.P that you recommend? Doesn't seem to be as many as there were for rfactor 1
    Thanks

    All tracks should have weather implemented but beware a "cheap" conversion may not have it set up properly, in the options under Practice you can set the Duration.
    Take a look here for Cars & Tracks, plenty to chose from:

    Lengh of test-session is always 30 hours or so when you havenĀ“t quali or race enabled.
    Then parctice is automaticly a whole day (or more).

    When selecting car, go in the TUNING section and select the Nationnal version of the car :)
