The biggest PITA about rF2 is managing the updated versions and re-installing all those stinking mods. My subscription ran out so I don't get the auto updates. So any time a new update is released, I need to re-download the RF2 Lite install, then reinstall all my mods. I have read that once a mod is installed, it takes something in the "Packages" folder, and places it into the "Installed" folder? I could then remove the mod in the Packages folder if I so choose. (But since I need to reinstall mods with version updates, I keep them around.)
So lets say I get a new version, I install it to \rFactor798\. Copy the UserData from the old one into the new one, then start reinstalling my mods. I can deleted my old install (\rfactor770\) completely? I have the \Packages\ folder on a Data drive and the game files on my SSD drive to save space.
Let me know if I'm doing too much work or setting myself up for trouble. Its an incredibly frustrating process. And its too bad since I just took out the DW12 for a spin and it blew me away, I ran 3 races against AI back to back to back it was so enjoyable...
Thanks, Ryan
