rF2 Live Stream: EnduRacers GTE @ Autódromo do Estoril (Portugal 2009) - Fri 22Jun18

Nothing has changed after the internet connection reset. The only firewall I use is Windows Defender. I turn it off and it didn't do anything. Still doesn't work . I'm running Windows 10 OS. A few days ago I updated the system and maybe this is the reason for my problem.

Win10 update claims another victim!!!

This is almost certainly the cause of your problem. @Denis Betty might be able to help you with this, as he experienced an issue following an OS update a couple of weeks ago and was able to rectify it by rolling back the update.

I would like to restore the previous build, but I have removed the previous builds to make disk space

 

[Denis Betty]

Hi.
Yes I used THIS method to roll back Windows to an earlier version of W10. However, there is a warning that "Rollback is dependent on the availability of the Windows.old & other folders folder, if you delete that, then you may not be offered the option to rollback.",
I don't know what you deleted, so....

@Denis Betty After installing new build there is a new notification if I want to delete preview build. I always click delete, so I think I've got empty Windows Old folder.

Unfortunately it sounds like this problem may be terminal for you, at least until a new update is released for Windows 10 (or whatever is causing the issue - Microsoft seem to have pretty much shirked all responsibility, which is incredibly frustrating).

That being said, see this link - https://forum.studio-397.com/index.php?threads/rfactor2-is-not-starting-anymore-black-screen.56006/; it's from last year, but I believe that it may still be relevant as the problem seems to be related to hardware and the corresponding driver software, as far as I'm aware.

@Daiman Patel That's weird, but I turn on rFactor without my G27 steering wheel and it's working.

Have you subsequently tried to plug in the wheel, once the game has loaded? This is what was suggested in the thread to which I have provided the link. Hopefully, for the time being at least, this will be a sufficient workaround for the issue.

Not yet. For now, I know that it is a steering wheel. I am not able to enter the server with the G27 plugged in.

This is exactly the same problem experienced by @Denis Betty. Try to load the game, and join the server (let everything, including all of your opponent's cars load) before plugging in your wheel. The thread in the Studio 397 forums suggests that this will work.

It's not working. The steering wheel does not work when I connect it after entering the server.

 

[Maciej Strzeboński]

@Daiman Patel OK. I reinstalled Logitech software and now I'm on the server. Hope it will work now.

Have you specifically read this post, in the thread to which I have been referring - the user who was initially experiencing the same problem as you seems to suggest that he has managed to get it to work successfully.

 

[Daiman Patel]

@Daiman Patel OK. I reinstalled Logitech software and now I'm on the server. Hope it will work now.

Fingers crossed!

Yes, I read. But the hub change did't give anything. Only reinstalling the software.

Thank you very much for your help @Daiman Patel! Really appreciate it!

Ah right, OK! Have you installed an older version of the driver, or did you simply reinstall the same driver out of curiosity? (To be honest I was ignoring the bit about switching USB ports, but I had also assumed that something was written about the driver - I have just realised that this is not until the thread's final post.)

Anyway, I'm glad to hear that you have been able to resolve the issue! And it's absolutely not a problem - I'm more than happy to help, even though I didn't actually help that much on this occasion!

I simply reinstall the same driver. And I'm really happy that it worked! See you tomorrow
