I have 2 installs of rFactor2, DX11 & DX9. So the McLaren works fine in the DX11 install, but does not show up in the car selector list of DX9. It is installed in the DX9, as I can see them both 1.0 & 1.01 in the mod manager with the "Installed Tick", but no car to select in game. I want to be able to use the DX9 version as my preferred driving version at the moment because of TrackMap, it's better for car tuning IMO, and I want to get the best out of this car. Anyone have this working on their setup? What did you do to get it working? SS
I use DX9 and McLaren works on my end. I didn't do anything special to get it working after it was downloaded and installed. How are you switching from DX11 to DX9? Do you have separate installs? If so probably the one linked to Steam is the DX11 one and the DX9 is "frozen" in the build that it was installed and would need to be updated to be able to use paid DLC.
Yes it's running, it won't let me use it unless I launch the DX11 version first, then it's good for offline & online. For example I got the update for Silverstone on both versions when I launched them today(separately). The DX9 runs anytime I have already run the DX11 version, so no it's not frozen, it's current. And yes separate installs. SS
The fact that it works means nothing. Go to rF2 properties in Steam and check the folder to which Steam is linked to. It is for sure pointing at dx11 install where you can drive MCL. I also have a working separate dx9 install but it remains in an older version, the active one when it was created. That version won't properly run Radicals or MCL which require dx9 being updated to its latest version. If you want to run MCL go to rF2 properties in steam and switch to dx9 build. Or make a new separate dx9 install.
So I tried another install of DX9, the install went fine but the McLaren was not installed... " Component Already Installed / McLaren_650S_GT3_2017 1.01" Looks like the only way to get it into my DX9 is to Opt Out of DX11. SS
I have only DX11 install and Mclaren doesn't show up in game. Both 1.0 & 1.01 files are installed. Is there a fix for this? EDIT: RF2 launcher startup logs show: Component "McLaren_650S_GT3_2017 1.0" failed to verify, removed from inventory Is this normal?
If you need to Verify Files go onto Steam, Library then right click for properties (RF2), then Local Files and then Verify from there. Hope that helps. SS
Steam verify was the first thing I tried upon noticing this message but it didn't help. Anyone knows if "Verify files" is supposed to verify the installed packages (from workshop)? When you use "delete local content" it doesn't delete tracks/cars so probably those files aren't counted as part of the original game?
