    I seem to have a problem getting the Race vMod from the Server. I have been driving on the practice servers prior to the rollout of the Race vMod and had no problems. And I know that other people can join without problems, so its not a general problem with the mod but something more specific.

    The first time i tried there where files downloaded but rFactor 2 then got stuck reporting "finishing installtion" or something like that. I just left it running in case it just takes some time but there was no progress even half an our later. So i killed rF2 using the task manager.
    After i restarted rF2 i saw the "P1LMS_2021_E1_Race" Mod in the package manager but trying to install it just flashed some error messages of missing files. Trying to connect to the server again causes rF2 getting stuck on "Connecting to server", again without any progress even if i leave it running for quite some time.
    Next i tried to delete the Mod with the package manger and reconnect to the server after a rF2 restart. But no luck: Still stuck on "Connecting to Server".
    To prevent some mixup with older vMods i uninstalled and removed all the vMods that kept piling up in the package manager so to prevent some strange incompatibility with other vMods. But after a rF2 restart and a lengthy wait watching the package manger uninstalling stuff still no luck: Still stuck on "Connecting to Server"
    I tried checking the file integrity with steam, but no help.
    I activated trace and found the line
    276.65s JNIMultiplay 255: Multiplayer: ProcessState() attempting mod download P1LMS_2021_E1_Race.rfmod from 188.40.137.208 : 64195
    again and again in the trace file and i can see that "P1LMS_2021_E1_Race.rfmod" is stored in my rFactors\Packages folder. But nothing more is happening.
    I tried a few random other servers and did not encounter similar problems.
    Or to put i short: I am at my wits end. Does anyone have any ideas why this does not work with the "P1LMS_2021_E1_Race" Mod or any other ideas what i could try?

    Regards
    Hannes

    There are some problems with downloading mods in the new UI. Did you delete all mod files in your packages folder.

    Hmm. Renaming the folder and tricking steam into reinstalling the game might do the trick... Good idea.

    Deleting only the vMods (rfMod Files) itself did nothing. But just deleting the complete content of the packeages folder solved the Issue.
    Thank you very much for your support. Works now :)
    See you on track.

  13. question: in rf2 menu UI, Cadillac class should be named more "Hypercar" more than DPi ?

    because in standings interface, there is written class "Cadillac DPi" instead of "Hypercar"

    Yes, there stands Cadillac DPi instead of DPi. We just missed the class override in the upgrades file. I will fix this during the week before the first race.

    when you select the car, it says underneath that the hypercar upgrade will be loaded as well. In the list is only the class (DPI)
