    I didnt say the word all and didnt even suggest that all of them should be tried.
    If you want to laugh at me, do it but i did not release a build that after such thorough betatesting needed to be changed the day after due to massive problems. I did laugh as well when that happened. :D

    Can you explain what this means? The settings haven't/shouldn't have changed, so how do you reset them??

    I had exactly that issue with 298 not having had it before. Now 300 is back to "normal." I think it has/had something to do with the two reflection settings--try adjusting those as a test to start. If that doesn't work, then !?!?!?

    If you changed them trying to improve previous builds you could now be effectively throttling this one.

    The only way to have caught that would have been to do what I interpreted you to have said. We would have had to have tested the mods which caused crashing to have experienced it. I think my interpretation came from a logical conclusion.

    Nope. As I said here --> I keep checking that aids are off in disbelief I checked that already many times. Very weird but re-installed fixed which is great. Concern, though, is how this could be used to cheat online. I had two to three times the grip and almost impossible to lose control when going over the limit. I literally tried to lose control on turn 9 of Mid-OH and couldn't. I still have install if there are any files you are interested in or want me to otherwise get the whole install to you to check out. Just PM me.

    Purple artifacts have been around (for me anyway) for quite some time now Tim... I see them on dashboards, tyres, track surfaces... mainly black or dark colours show them at their "best". Hedlund has also mentioned this in the past too.

    I`ll get some screens for next time I`m on.

    Did this happen online or offline? If online, did you check server settings for aids as well?

    Hello again ISI,

    after autoupdating from 298 to 300 same problem still exists for me. The program crashes after the splash screen. I deleted all third party stuff but nothing works for me.
    I will try to make a clean install and see what happens.

    Offline only. If worthwhile and you or anyone else knows of a good free tool to use I can do a directory/file level compare to identify any differences because I still have "corrupted" install.

    Edit - Running WinMerge on it now...

    Btw... I went to try the auto update from b298 to b300 just to test as I always do a complete fresh install anyway but the Update button is totally grey`d out.

    So is the Online button (middle) and my name`s not appearing in the bottom window either...

    :confused:

    through the config panel in launcher, Video sync. not syncing through nv inspector or anything external

    i've tried again and removed any AI cars, its a little better but it is still slipping out of realtime. im thinking that vsync might be the issue, now that you mentioned it!

    i'll have a play around with those settings, and reflections as suggested also

    Have to say I'm in awe of build 300. Just finished a race with 20 AI Clio's at Silverstone, all settings max. Min 45 FPS with average being 70, even saw peaks into the 90's @ 1080p. So much fun, track, cars and everything in general looks amazing now that I can properly enjoy it :)

    Build 300

    I'm a little confused.....I didn't do anything with Build 298 after reading the problems. Can I go straight to Build 300? Do I need to uninstall rF2 or can I just start the game and use the UPDATE tab?

    Thanks

    Thanks, please reply and let us know. If it still crashes, do you use any plugins? And did they work with 298 or 240?
