    Have you tried to old Mod Manager too?

    .../rfactor2/Bin32/ModMgr.exe
    There you are also able to disable the verification.

    And if you give us the folder to put directly in installed?

    Good idea ;)

    Added the safety car Installed folder inside the alternative download.

    Edit: Removed the pace car for the qualifying. Hope to find next week some time to check to issue and solve it.

  5. Hallo Simon, ich hab das Problem mit "failed verification" gelöst, war nicht so einfach zu finden aber jetzt geht alles!!!!

    1. Files sometimes get corrupted when downloaded and of course rFactor2 don`t verify corrupted files.

      Here is how I fixed my problem with corrupted files.

      1. Uninstall and Delete components (failed) listed from you packages folder.
      2. If you have problem with vmods also go toUserData>player folder> Delete xxxx.chh files with component name you like to verify.
      3. Go to UserData> delete CmpReport.txt. file.
      If you verify now all should bee ok.

      It is important to remember that components which failed verification are corrupted. Don`t try to install same downloaded files twice.

    Thanks, though this didn't fix my issue. I can join the server now because the car has been removed from the server.

    Yes i just removed the pace car from the mod but didnt update the rfm file. But i think for qualifying it should be ok this way. In the race there will be ours if i find a solution or the game default.

    Hey quick question we are stuck with default setup in server? Can't select any of our set ups? 

    Also driver swaps don't seem to be working for us.

    You need to go from vehicle filter to all vehicles. When building the race version of the mod we need to change the class of the cars so everything works as it should.

    Drive swap should work as usual.

    1. 2nd driver joins as spectator
    2. 2nd driver takes a seat in the car
    3. 1st driver selects 2nd driver in the pit menu
    4. before pit stop 2nd driver presses race
    5. during pit stop drivers will be swapped

    Server is set to unique car.

    Which means every car is only allowed once on the server.

    Hi Simon, I only registered my teams at the very last minute yesterday so our cars aren't available on the server. Is there anything that can be done so we can participate in quali? If not, it's no big deal if we can start the race from the back next week. Thank you.

    It was to late to include your car for qualifying. But the will be there for the race. A few days earlier and it would be no problem.

    Okay, not to worry - I had a feeling it would be too late but thought I'd ask just in case. See you on track next week! :)

    Simon, we also had a problem with driver swap in the Q. Even with the spectator riding in the car with the driver (saw the confirmation in the message window) the driver (me) could not choose the 'driver' menu item in the pit menu to select the other driver.

    Results are not up yet but I'll post my qualy review anyway. This is basically copy and paste of my report that I posted in our team forum:

    "Due to time restraints I had not try this car in wet conditions. Getting on 100% wet track right at the start of qualy and 5 am my time was a bit of a shocker. [​IMG] I tried few setup routes for full wet. Got on track few times and car's nose on the wall was the result every time first 20 minutes.
    Finally found a good direction and started posting some decent times towards half way mark. That was when rain had stopped and how fast the track was going to dry or what the drying racing line was going to look like was the question. I knew every minute passed the lap times were going to get faster
    and I had to take advantage of it in case it started to rain again. Went out with my first decent setup and posted the best lap of 1:29.6 and climbed to top spot 33 min to go. But my second lap compromised with GT traffic and I abandoned it. And Jules shot up to P1 at that time. It was good to see both Horizon cars at top
    in almost full wet conditions. [​IMG]

    27 min to go I was on a flyer but ended up colliding with Matt who was going into pits. A distinct dry racing line was forming but it was nowhere near time for inters. Times were improving pretty fast by this time as I dropped to P6 very quickly. Went out with more adjustments. on flying lap got bogged down by a wounded LMP which made it impossible to recover that lap, dropped to P8. Went easy on the tires rest of the lap and started another flyer, only slight hold up by a GT at T11 but lap was good; 1:22.9, I was P1 again, 22 min to go.

    Next two attempts got destroyed by going wide at T1 and getting stuck behind a slow LMP, who eventually spun and took me out while I was passing him. Skies were dark again and I had to hurry to put in more laps to stay with drying track. 12 min to go and surprisingly I'm still in P2 I started another flyer. 1:22.1 first lap and another 1:22.1 the second. still P2 but P1 guy had posted 1:20.7 already. Dry racing line was pretty wide now but off-line still ~60+% wet. Time to try Inters? Few more adjustments and went for it. 7 min to go. First lap got stuck behind a GT thru T1-T3. Second lap got a power slide out of T8 and got on grass. Esc'd and decided one last attempt with Softs!. Started the inlap 2.5 min to go. By that time I was down to P3. First flyer was not perfect got held up by 2 GT's, clocked 1:21.5 but it did not change my position, had dropped to P5. And I was starting my last lap 22 seconds left on the clock. No pressure. [​IMG] Fortunately it was a clean and no-traffic lap. Pole time was down to 1:19.723. I still had 1:22.9 and sitting in P5. Second place guy had 1:21.0 and had just crossed the line. After 65 seconds the qualy time had expired I crossed the line with 1:19.826, and P2. A mere .103 sec difference. Wow, that was the most intense qualifying session I ever had in recent memory. Pretty amazing.

    Real weather plugin did deliver exciting conditions for sure."

    Here is the qualifying result. Sorry for posting it so late. Was a busy weekend ;)

    P2 that have not qualified and show up will be moved in front of the GTs.
