this is the message I get when I press 'race' (and then it is crash to desktop)

Error opening MAS file DONINGTON1993MAPS.MAS

and this is how the track folder looks like



thanks in advance for the help

[erwin greven]

It can not open DONINGTONMAPS.MAS because it is not in the folder.
In the *.SCN file should be a list which points to all *.mas files.

For instance in my "Hunzering1970 layout D"-track it shows:

Code: Select all

SearchPath=Hunzering
SearchPath=Hunzering\1970\
SearchPath=Hunzering\1970\40layoutD 
SearchPath=.

//-------------------------------------------------------

MASFile=Hunzering1970_dds.mas
MASFile=Hunzering1970_gmt.mas
MASFile=Hunzering1970_tex.mas
MASFile=40layoutD_psx.mas

//-------------------------------------------------------

MASFile=sky.mas
MASFile=COMMONMAPS.MAS

Look for all the *.mas files and place them in the SCN if they are not there.

If there is a:
Donington1993.mas and also a DoningtonMaps.mas they should be listed in the SCN.

thanks for the help, @erwin greven

this is the way the .scn file looks



is there any way to solve it?

after deleting the two lines with files that are not in the folder, I get the following errors

texture cmwlla for material cmwlla
global cmwlla
global cmwlla

@erwin greven

perhaps I can send you the entire folder by WeTransfer, and you can have a look?
I'd need your e-mail address then.

I downloaded the mod and track pack. There are serious issues with Donington. The SCN file is looking for a file that is simply not there. So it won't work in any way.

oh man

no alternatives I guess? Thanks for looking anyway.

That one is for rFactor 2. The F1SR pack is for rFactor 1.

Checked a few other tracks. Canada also has some issues.

Had a drive around Bridgehampton for the first time ever last night.

LOVED IT.

What a wonderful circuit that was. Mega fun in a Tatuus USF-17.

Some guy is releasing the 1991-92 carset bit by bit and they're exceptionally fun to drive. Next level fun.

Currently has the Williams, Ferrari, McLaren, Benneton, Tyrrell, Larrousse, Brabham, Fondmetal, Minardi and this week released the 7Up Jordan.

Around tracks like Kyalami, these things are just a blast.

Still a few cars to go... Can't wait to have a full grid of these things. 1992 was the best looking grid in history, IMO. But 1991 comes close.

For any rF2ers, try these cars out! Should have a hotlapping comp, too.

@Cheeveer A bit random, but a few years ago you shared a link to some rFactor FTP with lots of mods. Do you still have it?

Ah, that's a shame!

I did a silly thing last year. I deleted my rFactor install and decided to start again. This meant I lost all my cars and tracks. I kept a backup of things like my Superleague Formula conversion and the GTR2/GTL/STCC game track conversions, but I deleted the SRW track conversions which are all laser scans. I have all of them back except for Brands Hatch.

I am going to try all the mods I remember from back in the day. GP2 Series 2006. iDT Formula BMW. Formula Nippon 2007. Man are they going to be a blast.

Btw I found it, they have a file server online. Let me know if you want access.

I was wondering if someone could help me with something...
