Blank Menu

Here's my trace after putting the "bad" 000003.log back in place (after which, I get the issue described in this thread - no menus other than the settings)

...and for reference, here's the log with the "good" 000003.log in place (when I get working menus and am able to use the game)

POTENTIAL SOLUTION (please test it first and let me know)

1. Right click on rF2 in steam and go to properties then select beta's from the pop up window
2. Change the dropdown to previous-release and complete the download then launch rF2
3. You should hopefully see the UI!
4. Follow steps 1 & 2 again but change it back to none to ensure you're on the latest version.
5. You should still see the new UI!

If the above doesn't work then after completing steps 1,2 and 3 try and switch to release-candidate and launch the game before changing back to none.

Awesome, thanks, this workaround works fine. Thanks for sharing.

@Alex Sawczuk, I believe clearing the local storage is the problem. In the RC I also did that and had the same problem: blank menu screen. Seems like the leveldb isn't initialized anymore (in UserData\player\LocalStorage\Local Storage). Luckily, when copying an old "Local Storage" into the "LocalStorage", the problem went away. Switching to an older build (without this problem), starting rFactor once, and then switching back to the newest version, should work...but there seems to be a problem for (new) users without a local storage yet.
 
P.S. you can easily reproduce this by renaming "UserData\player\LocalStorage" into "UserData\player\LocalStorage.bak". After starting the application, the menu screen will be empty. Now close rFactor and copy "UserData\player\LocalStorage.bak\Local Storage" into the newly created "UserData\player\LocalStorage" folder. Start rFactor again, then everything is okay.
