    Hi...
    Could do with some advise...
    Since I went down the DX11 route, I am unable to join multiplayer sessions.
    The moment it launches the connect to server page, rFactor 2 crashes with the message:
    "rFactor 2 stopped working"

    I have verified the game integrity ... all 100% ...
    Thanks for any feedback,

    Remove plugins that give onscreen display. i.e. Performance Delta ( :( )
    Check in Bin32 or Bin64 / plugins

    On the launcher click settings / video settings. Check you're on the right settings & start off low and work upwards.

    Hi,
    Thanks for your advice,
    have checked both plugin folders... but have nothing in there other than the standard 4 (knockout, steam, stockcars & trackir)
    as for settings:
    I run AA: level 3 and Post Processing: None
    Screen:
    Fullscreen ... @ 2540x1440 - 30Hz (with R9 290)
    Have tried Borderless and Windowed ... still the same .. "rFactor 2 has stopped working"
    I have had to reduce these settings for DX11 ... and get approx 100-160 fps in single game mode...
    Don't quite know how low I need to go....???

    I went for the easy fixes....
    Try deleting old exceptions in your firewall and make a new one when you launch it again.

    Sorry... :( ...
    Called victory too early...
    It turns out that i need to run in 64bit mode... the moment I switch to 32bit...i can not connect to the game sever.. ?
    The problem is ... that i have known USB timing issue between rF2 and my Accuforce which does not enable me to run a stable 64bit setup.
    If anyone has a suggestion as to how to overcome or enable me to connect in 32bit.. ?! ... o_O
