First, sorry if I do something wrong; I´m new in this world of sim, computers, files and all the mess... Be patien with me, please. And second, sorry if I make grammar mistakes, english language is not my strong suit... :cautious: Greetings from Spain! :)

Well, the cuestion is that I recently installed the marvelous "Union Island" track (contains 3 layouts: Freeroam, Scenic and West) and his "2 way traffic" add-on, following the instructions provided by his autors. Content Manager opens without complaints and shows 4 layouts of the track (Freeroam, Scenic, West and AI Traffic) but when I open the game with Assetto Corsa, appears this warning...

... then I close this window, AC continues charging the game without problems, but when I go to see the tracks, only the 3 firsts layouts of the Union Island track are present, the 2way-traffic are not...

In the middle of the log, appears this sentences:

... and I don´t know what I have to do to solve this issue... Sure it´s a stupid mistake by my side, but I said it before; I´m a newby... :unsure: ¿Any help, please...? Thank you in advance.

P.D. In the log appears another error with Glencoe track, but no AC warnings nor malfunction in the game, I think...

How it seems that this doubt has been buried among the many messages of the forum and no one has seen it :cry:, I answer to myself: sometimes is best to make a living on our own, and this is what I did, and I would like that if some "nerd" like me has the same problem, also will know the solution...

I don´t know almost nothing about programming and I´m afraid of touching anything in case causes a nuclear meltdown in my computer, but I dared recklessly to compare the files of the different layouts of the track; I searched the json archives, in my case they are in blablabla... \ assettocorsa \ content \ tracks \ union_island \ ui \ , then inside the ui folder are the folders of the layouts of the track and within each of them are several png files and a file named ui_track, which is the famous json.

Comparing the different ui_track files of the different layouts, I found that in the "2way" file was not a sentence at the end of the script. In the no problematic versions appears "priority": followed by a number: 2.0, 3.0 and 4.0... I added "priority": 5.0 in the "2way" file and hocus pocus! problem solved.

My firsts steps in advanced programming... :D
