    I left sim racing about 6 years ago, sold all my sim equipment, and haven't touched anything since. Today I purchased a wheel and am starting to research what sims I have and what else I need to get that's relevant. rF1 had already moved to Steam before I quit, but I had no idea that ISI was gone. I followed the form to request to have my old rF2 license migrated to Steam and included all the info requested from my original invoice. Is there a way to expedite this before the weekend?

    The form, invoice, and this forum all use same email. (zim2323 at gmail dot com)
    Thanks!

    Out of luck I'm afraid. ISI sold rF2 years ago. ISI no longer tracks or has saved previous purchases of rF2. S397 gave at least a year's grace period for previous owners to migrate to Steam. That expired long long ago. The good news, rF2 is on sale for $6.39 US Dollars.

    Not really, no. Some people dig their heels in and maybe get some action (Not publicly announced). Note the rFactor page hasn't been updated since 2017/2018.

    rF2 went to steam in Nov 2015, had its last non-steam build in 2016, and as mentioned above there was a grace period of about a year where you could still transfer. https://forum.studio-397.com/index.php?threads/information-regarding-rfactor-2-steam-faq.52401/

    Many people came in after that and had no option but to repurchase, often at full price.

    As again mentioned above, right now rF2 is on sale for very cheap. I'd be buying it.

    and, since you seemed to be in a time crunch, even IF you were successful, it would take more time than I suspect you have.
