Matty300 Posted January 7, 2009 Report Posted January 7, 2009 At buxton tonight I could practice fine offline with the track loading ok, however whenever i joined the server to play online the track loading screen came up fine, i got into the pre-race lobby bit & it kept booting me back to the spinner, stating "track mismatch". Ive tried everything i can think of, including reboots, reinstalls of the buxton track in gamedata/locations, do you think replacing the terrain tdf.file may work as the rfactor central site suggests this? Any advice appreciated, thanks, Matty

Any advice appreciated, thanks, Matty Im not 100% sure but I think there was a problem with 1 version of buxton which was fixed and then re uploaded. Have you tried downloading the installer again from Sim-Stox and running that? Apologies if you have mate. Cheers Dazza

Cheers Dazza Cheers Dazza, thats nailed the problem, weirdly i only had three options for launching Buxton, buxton fog, buxton hot rods & buxton figure of 8. After installing the sim-stox download i have four, now includes a straightforward "buxton" in track list!! Just wish id realised that there was a problem with the rFactor central install & then had some racing tonite. Thanks anyway Dazza.
