Returning to RFactor...
I've been away from simming for close to a year, and would like to get
back into it. - Specifically into RFactor I see that rFactor has now gotten lots of add-ons series, tracks, etc. I'm currently on Version 1.07 and have the following questions: 1. I see that the latest patch is for Version 1.15. Is this patch required to run the latest mods, like the 1979 F1 Mod? If so, I see that I have to do a complete re-install. Is it possible to do that without losing setups, previously installed mods, etc? 2. I seem to recall that a code was needed to activate rFactor (perhaps I'm wrong on this....). If so, I don't think that I have that code anymore, so how do I install 1.15 without losing my activation? 3. How does the ISI_BABYFACTORY cheat work, to increase the $$$? (I forgot.) Exactly where do I input this code? At the moment, after installing the 1979 F1 mod and trying to run it in Version 1.07, I get kicked back to the desktop. I'm thinking that it's because I have to "buy" a car, but my "budget" is only 1,500,000. (I seem to recall it was a lot higher than that before I installed the mod.) Any help with this would be greatly appreciated. |

Just save your player folder so you keep your setups.
Uninstall your current version and install the full update. Don't use your previous controller file. Start new. Just save your setups. You only use one of your activations when you install on a new/significantly upgraded computer. A reinstall doesn't use an activation credit. You can reinstall 100 times if you want. The cheat gets typed into the chat line and then send the message. You can use any car in the '79 mod. There's no purchasing of the cars yet. -- David G Fisher <BRH> wrote in message . .. > I've been away from simming for close to a year, and would like to get > back into it. - Specifically into RFactor > > I see that rFactor has now gotten lots of add-ons series, tracks, etc. I'm > currently on Version 1.07 and have the following questions: > > 1.

Should I stick with Nascar Acceleration or go to SCE? It appears SCE is not
complete. Not even close. There doesn't appears to be any full carsets and tracks. Should I stick with the latter until the SCE mod is a complete mod?

There's a lot of tracks. Look for "Soulrender" tracks.
I would use the in game NASCAR cars, and wait for the Pits to release their version. -- David G Fisher "LS" > wrote in message news:P8GLg.951336$084.44798@attbi_s22... > Should I stick with Nascar Acceleration or go to SCE?

Now that mod has no engine sound. I'll start a new thread for that though... |
