    w00t!

    Company Tools is now built directly into v3, and allows users to run their own repo for v3.
    Complete with one-click setups and pre-configured game plugins, allowing users to be up and playing in just minutes.

    The system also produces custom SimTools installer per repo created.
    It can auto update SimTools and game plugins.
    Allowing for a single spot to support all users.
    More info is coming on the repo system.

    For now thou, if you want to get setup, please send a email here:
    https://simtools.us/contact-us/
    And we can setup a time to get you all setup.
    Even get you a company discount code if you don't have one already.
    Take care,
    yobuddy

    hello sir, excuse me for bothering you, do you have any idea why it tells me this error, my pc has the correct date and time in the area where I am, it tells me that I have the wrong date and time

    another question because it almost always asks me to re-register... my user always leaves and returns to the beta version.

    Did you fully remove the alpha version before installing the beta?

    Aren't you the user?

    rFactor 2 game plugin posted to the repo. :thumbs

    The game itself was not easy to get working directly from steam.
    If you have any problems, be sure to check the data page for the game.
    https://simtools.us/plugin/?varname=104&repo_id=1

    We had to switch to the old gui to get the game to even launch for the first time.
    Then we had to install all the runtimes by hand to get the game to export data.
    More info can be found in the link above.

    RF2 worked first time for me as well. Tried launching it from Simtools and tried auto-detect without any issues. Don't know what all the fuss is about! :grin

    Now I have this plugin I think I can drop V2, great work Yobuddy :thumbs

    Hi everyone, very glad that you got Rfactor2 working. Please enjoy!!!
    I could not make it work. Just for your info, I got back to old ui, updated all the runtime libraries, the game starts, I can go single player, but when I drive, simtools crashes. I can see that in options the simtools rfactor 2 plugin is on, nevertheless.

    I would like to thank you also for all your amazing work, this new UI is a lot cleaner and nicer than the old version.

    Keep up making us Happy!!!
