your issue is not related to our software ;) this is a limitation of rFactor titles:

the solution comes from ISI and it is obvious:

<<Run client and server on different paths to not have this issue.>>

OK to use a dedicated server on same PC BUT do not share data, plugins, etc. directories with dedicated server, install it in another path on your disk to avoid any conflict with plugins, etc.

Hope this helps

Copy rFactor folder in other location of your disk to launch dedicated server (host)

you cannot share plugins with normal and host session, this is a limitation of rFactor 1 and 2.
that's it!

let me know if it is clear for you and this topic will be locked and closed, thanks.
