Trace logging is enabled via a command line argument. In the Launcher you can add this argument for single or multiplayer or even devmode. If you are launching rFactor 2 from a shortcut you can add it there too. The syntax is: +trace=2Command line arguments are set in your Steam client before you launch. You right click on rFactor 2 in your "library" and choose the "Properties..." option from the context menu. In the "general" tab there is a button called "set launch options..." which shows you a text field where you can enter:

  • +trace=2 to enable logging to disk (see "what to send?" below for the location of the logs);
  • +trace=2 +traceFlush to enable logging, flushing any new lines to disk immediately, which is needed if you are reporting rFactor 2 crashing.

What to send?

Trace logs end up in the UserData\Log folder of your rFactor 2 install. The latest one is called "trace.txt" unless rFactor 2 crashed during the latest run. Older ones are typically marked with a timestamp in the name. When in doubt, sort them by modification date. Just send us that text file along with your description of the problem. If you have an in-game time, feel free to mention it. That might save us wading through many lines. If they are large, feel free to zip them.
