    Hi,
    i having trouble to start my RF2

    back ground
    yesterday in afternoon, i got a PC crash with a blue screen when i was looking in folders for skining matters.
    i don't know what did happen, i got PC crash with bluescreen but not stable screen, it was a deformed screen impossible to read the text.

    then PC crash at end of count down and restart
    i put it on stand by after that, to look at it later in night

    yesterday night, i wanted to give a drive
    i launch Steam then and i launch rFactor2

    RF2 green button "PLAY" become blue
    launch in progress, i got logo RF2 in center of screen
    [​IMG]

    and then, after fews seconds (33-34 sec), logo disappear


    and button "PLAY" come back to green
    game launch impossible


    i did with STEAM a file integrity checking in RF2 properties
    STEAM found 12 files in trouble
    then the repair is done
    and i did a new file integrity checking
    all files have been validated

    RF2 is OK

    but after this, still impossible to launch/start

    since RF2 use Steam interface in September 2016, it is the first time i get such a problem... i can't fix alone

    i have Trace files in logs

    edit: i can launch and play LMU, ACC

    Hello Mat
    If you had a blue Screen Crash, it can be that Player Files are corrupted.
    Did you already try it with renaming the UserData Folder and then start rFactor 2, to get a fresh one created?
    Maybe (hopefully!) that solves the Problem already.
