[Steven Sullivan]

[Justin Swan]

C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\YOURGAMETAG\race 07\Gamedata

If it doesn't already exist, create it at the location mentioned above.

You have to create those folders yourself.in your
"Steam/steamapps/your profile name/race 07.
Create "Gamedata/Locations" and "UIData"
go to http://www.racedepartment.com/forum/threads/how-to-add-downloaded-content-to-race-series.25283/ Have fun

[Justin Swan]

Case sensitive folder names? Not sure if that would make a difference?
Locations (not locations)

You might want to check out Sim Race Manager too. Very good at organising mods etc.

Make sure you only put folder in Locations folder one level deep, ie
Gamedata/Locations/limerock

If he did it without mistake ... it smells again like Race07 in 'Common' ???
hoping I'm not right.

 

[Steven Sullivan]

you are spot on got it sorted now it was in common

Speaking about folders, i didn't want to start a new thread but is it ok to move all of the Steam/Race07 out of C/(x86) into my Games folder which contains my GTL rFactor and GTR2?

 

[Dennis Phelan]

Hiroshi, I did that by deleting the content in the race 07 folder and have the new install put in Games. Then I pulled all the content from the old folder and added it. I don't know if the registry can handle a move like you want to do it.
