To launch the game you must use the 'launch rFactor.exe' in the launcher folder. There is an rFactor 1, and very old versions of RF2 so be sure to look for the latest help and info when searching online. I'm new to RF2 so can remember some of the pain setting up. It is geared towards my friends who played ProjectCARS 2 and are looking to explore RF2. This is a getting started guide I wrote for beginners.
