Track Help

[Guest stox259]

Hi

 

New to this. Go easy on me

 

I have installed everything. But everytime I go to race I always end up at Cowdenbeath. Even if I select another track or a different car once I click 'load track' it always goes back to Cowdenbeath in my tarmac car. Any ideas?

Are you using RFactor or Heat?

[Guest stox259]

R Factor.

 

It does mean I am getting pretty good around Cowdie as its the only one I can go on lol

Are you sure you have everything installed in the correct place ie most of the track installers are set for windows xp now if your on windows 7 or vista you will need to add the (x86) in to the directory.

 

Failing that look in your locations folder and you can find that here. C:\Program Files (x86)\rFactor\GameData\Locations for windows 7 or vista or C:\Program Files\rFactor\GameData\Locations for xp

 

Does that make sense?

[Guest stox259]

Yes I am on Windows 7

 

How do I 'add the (x86) in to the directory.'

 

Cheers for your help

When you install the track it will say where it will install to and that will be C:\Program Files\rFactor\GameData\Locations

 

So on windows 7 when that bit comes up delete it and copy this is in C:\Program Files (x86)\rFactor\GameData\Locations

 

You can do it manually if you want all you need to do is add the (x86) in as it is shown above

Hello Paul,

 

Are you bored during the off season already that you have taken to do it on the computer?

 

Nice to see you on here. It's a shame you wernt here last week as you would have been more than welcome to join us for our final meeting of the 2010 season. Of course, you would be more than welcome to join us during the new season, and perhaps a Winter Series? By the sounds of the practise above, you might want to look for the Cowdenbeath meeting which will probably be in June!!

 

In terms of skins, UKSOM do a superb job of updating the mod when they have the time, normally once a year. Last time I spoke to one of their members, he thought there would be one in the near future. It would be great to have your 'British winged cars' in the game.

 

Anyway, hope to perhaps race against you over the internet in the near future

 

Cheers

 

Johno
