 More details on rFactorCentral New download for Win 7 64 bit hereThe G25 bit stopped working when I moved to Windows 7 and I've only just got it running again. The launcher part I've been running for years. Mainly designed for people with - A G25 / G27
- Lots of mods in separate installs (that's less than a third of the mods I have in a total of 30 folders
 )

So if you have a Fanatec or other wheel it's still of use but only as a launcher?

Yes. It started out as a quick way to set my G25's rotation and grew but it's still useful if you don't use that, I have been using it even when the rotation thing was broken because it makes selecting the mod and connecting to a server simple (and I don't have to remember passwords!). It is nice to once again be able to select a mod and have my G25 automatically set to the rotation I used with the mod last time. Other wheels could be added but the code is specific to Logitech's way of doing things, I'd guess that Fanatec's is similar but without a wheel to test I wouldn't be able to do it.
It works on the basis that all your rF installs are together under one folder, it searches for all the mods in all the installs.
I also tried to solve the perennial "how / where do I install this mod / track?" problem with the Add new mod button which does an "intelligent copy" of a set of unzipped files automatically to the right place in the currently-selected install.

For anyone wondering why I have several rF installs - it's a standard trick that was originally done because rF loads quicker if it only has a few mods. Also some mods change the UI or don't co-operate with other mods (HistorX and NAGT are two I can think of).
Or a mod might have installed the Grinding Tranny (I think I remember there is one that does so, or at least offers to do it for you) and it's buggering up other mods...
For more advanced / IT savvy users: I have one config file shared by all installs, amongst other things it means that all of them share the tracks that I keep in the main install.
