    Hello, as said in the title, what is needed when S397 pushes an update on the game.

    I suppose we need :
    1 - To stop the server
    2 - To update the content via steamcmd
    or is it sufficient to launch ModManager and just click "Update" if needed on the component ?
    3 - To unlock, again the ServerKeys.bin
    4 - To restart the server with its mod
    or do we have to redo the mod ?

    Thanks.

    Or maybe nothing ? I didn't do anything but restarting ModMgr and server
    and it looks like the dallara update is OK ... :confused:

    You have to update what has been updated.
    If is the rF2, you have to update rF2 and the old mod will be ok.
    If the content is updated you'll have to update the content and create a new mod.
    You only habe to create the unlock keys if you add new DLCs.

    I only relaunched the steamcmd command and did nothing on the dallara, but the IR-18 looks to be updated o_O

    If you're updating the server and content you'll need two commands to run;
    I run this for server update;
    Code:
    steamcmd +force_install_dir ../SteamrF2-public +login anonymous +app_update 400300 validate +quit
    for the Indycar I use this;
    Code:
    steamcmd +login Steamusername Steampassword +workshop_download_item 365960 2741380134 +quit
    1. I then go to my SteamCMD\steamapps\workshop\content\365960 folder, find the two rfcmp's (v1.18 and v1.19) for the Indycar and copy to the servers Packages folder.
    2. Open modmanager and uninstall the vmod for indycar/track combo.
    3. Uninstall and delete older version of Indycar.
    4. Install v1.18 of Indycar
    5. Update to v1.19 of Indycar.
    6. Creat new vmod for Indycar/track combo (make sure it's named differently to old vmod).
    7. Fire up the server.

    Thanks that is pretty simple.
    Just slighty annoying to have to redo the mod track/car.

    Previously my server was running the old IR-18.
    I had to update the rfcmp with the steamcmd
    and redo the mod track/car.

    It took me only a few minutes.

    Thanks for your help.
