Steam & RACE 07/ON GTR EVO changes on 01/09/12

[Magus]

I've noticed that Steam has moved around the way it stores my Race On data, now all the data has moved to:
X:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\RACE 07
(stored with rest of the steam games instead of steamapps\USERNAME\RACE07) & now includes all subfolders & files loose.

This means all mods have to be relocated & unfortunately some mods are playing up.

Also problems with launching the game being encountered at our end.

Just a heads up.

EDIT: Problem of launching the game seems to be solved by deleting all content, reinstalling Race 07, shutting steam down, restarting & then in to game.

Damn, i should stop thinking while sick.. Of course backup, that's the way to go.. My headgears are jamming..

Deleting everything including Steam, reinstall of Steam, Race 07 and all expansions took ... less than 1 hour.
Except ... the mods. I had used Simracing Manager before to desactivate mods and tracks but forgot to save the UI data, sounds and talents. .... so don't forget doing that too before uninstalling

PS: hoping you're not too sick ... anyway wishing you a quick recovery. ....quicker than mine

I prefer having Steam in offline mode (just to be sure nothing happens). Yesterday, I installed Win8 Enterprise and when I coppied all the gcf files from another disk, it wanted to update but was stucked. I just chose continue updating (strangely) on every item in Steam library and it just blinked and no downloading occured. Everything was as it should be. Folders as usual after starting game.
