rFactor missing sounds in-game

When joined to the desired race server sounds can't be heard:

This will most likely due to missing sounds from your gaming installation, please download and install the following:

The common causes of this are:

  • rFactor Lite game installation
  • A patched rFactor installation (from a previous version to 1.255)
  • A copy and paste installation (from a previous install backup)
  • Mods using sounds not included with previous versions of rFactor (see earlier note about patched rFactor installations)

Note that some mods may require an additional download for their sound pack although this is rare, if this is the case we will provide the same download with the 1-Click join process to our race servers, in the event that this isn't the case please let us know right away. If the mod in question was downloaded from a non Simraceway/rFactorCentral website you will need to visit the mod developers/distributors website for assistance.

If the issue persists after checking/trying the above suggestions, please submit support ticket here by clicking 'Submit A Request' so we can assist you further.

This will be due to the rFactor Lite coming with limited sounds, and some car and track mods may use these which would normally be with the retail/dvd installation of the game.  Direct the user to download the sound pack from rFactor Central, the link is: http://www.rfactorcentral.com/rFactor_Lite.cfm
Notes: Also note that full installs of earlier rFactor versions that have been patched to 1255 can also suffer from this issue - the same sound package should resolve itThis will be due to the rFactor Lite coming with limited sounds, and some car and track mods may use these which would normally be with the retail/dvd installation of the game.  Direct the user to download the sound pack from rFactor Central, the link is: http://www.rfactorcentral.com/rFactor_Lite.cfmNotes: Also note that full installs of earlier rFactor versions that have been patched to 1255 can also suffer from this issue - the same sound package should resol
