    Dear Community & Developers,

    For our game server hosting I am doing research in integrating rFactor 2 in our custom control panel, however it seems I can't even get rFactor 2 dedicated game servers to start properly.
    For some reason the "Matcher Status" keeps on prompting: "Mod ID is invalid".
    It even does that when I start the server without any custom content installed...

    To be honest I have the feeling I am missing something obvious here, is there anyone who faces similar issues or anyone knows what needs to be done to fix this issue?

    To make sure: I do not run any self built mods here, tried a clean server and some ISI mods provided on this forum. Not any configuration I have tried so far managed to get the server to show up in the server list, which I assume is because of the "Mod ID is invalid" error (?).

    Thanks in advance,
    Mark

    Do you have vmods from other servers that you can test?

    And in the multiplayer.ini it should be:
    Announce Host="1" // Whether servers will attempt to register with the matchmaking service

    Thank you Denstjiro! The problem was the Match ID - I didn´t get a new ID while registering the mod. After the server restart on weekend it works fine now.
