    Hi guys,
    Wondering if you could help, im not quite understanding the above or how this could happen. Build 240.

    I downloaded the "Content Installer" for both my PC & Dedi server, when installing on pc all was fine.

    On PC,
    In mod manager clicking only "mods" i can see the series and when clicking "host" in the launcher i can select the series. All file directories are default.

    On Dedi,
    In mod manager clicking "mods" i cannot not see any series and when clicking the "host" in the launcher i cannot select any series all file directories are default and same as pc yet i get no series at all.

    Any help would be appreciated.

    You need to create a vmod to host with. That is a file which references which car(s) and track you are racing with.

    Very easy to make vmods now i understand that it creates series etc, thanks again.

    For anyone else wondering why you cannot start your dedicated servers first watch this video,
    RFMOD versus vMOD Video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KjQ_eo2zsl4&feature=youtu.be

    And here is a more in depth tutorial on how to use the mas2 tool to make vmods which allow you to host on the dedi.
