    Hi , i recently got rf2 on steam an i love it, only thing when i try to load indy oval the sim crashes at loading no matter which track that i select in indy oval series -> back to desktop... any ideas ? it is a clean fresh install, 2 days old. i use a fanatec gt2 wheel , clubsport shifter and clubsport pedals v1, running w10 64bit 8gb ram and a gtx780 3GB vram

    thank you very much

    Indy is pretty heavy on resources. Maybe you are running out of ram/vram. Try loading the track with no or very few AI.

    Did you enter the trace=3 entry into the Launchers Command line field, with "Single Player" activated, and clicked the "save"-button at the end of the line then?

    trace=3 entry into the Launchers Command line field, with "Single Player" activated, and clicked the "save"-button, started rfactor2 , selected indy oval, race
    then i see the loading screen, the bar goes from left to right and when it reaches the end at the right i get a crash back to desktop... no trace file in the log file directory :( - am i making a mistake somewhere ?

    No, the procedure seems OK. And if you see the loading-bar, there should have been written a trace file.
    Maybe it's a problem with too low windows user rights, that don't allow to create the trace file.
    I don't have/use steam so i have to ask if you start rFactor2 from a steam UI or do you have the possibility to start the rF2-Launcher by using a shortcut?
    If you can start rF2 with a shortcut, try it with a mouse-rightclick on it and selecting "Run as Administrator" then.

    What you can try also, is to set the windows UAC to the lowest level and see if that changes something.
    A lot of problems are caused by the Windows UAC and not only with rF2.

    hmmm, the last entry says it's loading Graphics and sound but what i think is strange is, that there is a line saying "No vehicles exist that satisfy filter passed to GenerateOpponents".
    Do you have the for that raceevent needed components installed?

    I don't have /use steam, could you please upload the mas file ( in the ..\installed\rfm folder) and the manifest file (in the ..\manifests folder) from the Indycar Oval Series?
    Maybe i can reproduce it with my non-steam version.

    The trace file you've posted was from the Indycar and you've packed the StockCar.
    Can you upload the Indycar files also?
    To be sure i would like to try them also.

    But so far the Stockcars load normal here, no problem.
    I've seen some differences in the trace files.
    The first is the entry
    HKL=

    where your value was:
    0x04070c07
    and my was:
    0x04070407

    but that shouldn't be the problem

    But i guess this could be the problem:
    your entry:
    steward.cpp 6096: slot=103 name="" session=0 et=0.000 pobq=0 parking=.....
    my entry:
    steward.cpp 6096: slot=103 name="" session=1 et=0.000 pobq=0 parking=.....

    there are a few more of them and all of you have set the session=0 and all of me have set session=1

    I would say that here the problem starts. But i don't know what causes it, sorry.

    EDIT please control if there are some opponents checked in the filter, like that:
    And check if your installation is not corrupted.

    You're welcome.
    And yes. it seems to be a bug.
    The chevy and honda entries shouldn't be there, none of the *.veh files has such a classes entry.
    I guess it is caused by the entries in the upgrades.ini, which are "UpgradeClass="IndyCar_2014_Chevy"" and "UpgradeClass="IndyCar_2014_Honda"".
    Maybe it's a new "feature" that don't works properly or it wasn't intentionally wanted that the entries show up in the opponents list.
    But whatever it is, the main thing is, that you can drive the cars now. :)
