Main download page for the Patreon version of EVO including a video tutorial on how to set up and use the EVO SERVICE PARK LAUNCHER.

Extraction/Installation:

  • extract the contents into your RBR root directory to merge the Maps-folders, then run the _EVO Service Park Launcher.bat

  • in the Launcher go to "EVO ONE-CLICK INSTALLER" and select the components you want to install

    See also the _EVO Service Park Manual.pdf included in the download file below.

you might need to tell your Windows Defender to let the "EVO Service Park Launcher.bat" file do its thing on first launch. It just creates a direct shortcut to the "EVO_Service_Park.ps1" inside "Maps/__EVO" to start the EVO Service Park Launcher.

DISCLAIMER: EVO can be installed and uninstalled without extra tools by just copying, overwriting, editing and restoring files. However, due to the nature of the now 20 year old RBR and the hundreds of contributors over the decades, the process to add the corresponding EVO files is not always as straight forward as one would hope.

This is where this little tool, I call the EVO Service Park Launcher, comes into play. It allows for full control over the EVO installation process, installing and setting up individual parts of the mod, placing weather files, placing particle files, for specific stages while dealing with all their specific quirks for you; automatically setting up the reshade preset, applying automatically created dynamic reshade presets in-game on the fly; randomizing clouds and audio files, etc. It also comes with a handy one-click installer/uninstaller for EVO.

Additionally the EVO Service Park serves as a small hub with the most frequented links, locations and sites for all your RBR needs. It comes pre-requesited with a "Launch RBR EVO" button (to run RBR) and four additional customizable buttons you can name and link to your hearts desire (see video).

In the future the functions of the EVO Service Park - Launcher are going to be expanded. Especially when we get to the clouds (live since build 0.2) and audio parts (live since build 0.3) and automatically created dynamic reshade presets (live since update 0.6) it might become not just a convenience but a necessity.

"Liptakov 1 and Liptakov 2 Evo's settings are not working — the game asks to restore the original INI file."

Richard Burns Rally EVO

first, welcome :) and I`ll have a look at this. Liptakov is known to work differently than other stages, since it is (used to ?) pulling its TrackSettings.ini not locally but from a server. I´ve talked about this with the RSF team and they are aware of that and called this issue "ancient" when things were done more complicated than they had to. This might be a coincidence but it might very well be tied to this issue. When making the weather adjustments for EVO on Liptakov I had no issues but the inner workings might have changed in the meantime (as mentioned somewhere else, this mod has been in the works for almost 5 years now...)

Richard Burns Rally EVO

Update: had to exclude Liptakov for now from EVO with a hotfix. It needs to be "unlocked" by the RSF crew first.

After extracting RBR EVO v0.2, my windows defender warned me about the .exe . It seems to be a trojan called wacatac. Windows defender deleted the .exe file.

Richard Burns Rally EVO

Yes, that is a known issue and is actually also adressed in the description of the download page. Depending on your safety settings windows defender might not like the .exe file which is just telling your system to go into your "Maps/__EVO" folder and launch the file "EVO-Service_park.ps1" with powershell. You can either ignore the warning (add exception in windows defende) and safely use the .exe or you can perform its task manually by going into "Maps/__EVO" and right click the "EVO_Serice_Park.ps1" file and run it with powershell, which will open the EVO Serice Park Launcher. If you still have trouble opening the file or encounter any othe issues you can direct message me here or hit me up on discord (@donpedro1921)

Game crashes before loading screen with the latest ReShade version 6.7.1, but works fine with 6.5. Easy to install and looks much better than the original. Thank you for your work!

Richard Burns Rally EVO

Thanks! And thanks for the heads-up regarding the latest reshade version. I´ll check it out.

i cant find the launcher.exe, all i have is launcher.bat. am i missing something? also i dont think it installs everything when i try to install

Richard Burns Rally EVO

super short answer: just double click the .bat file and go to the one-click installer long answer: the bat file is going to launch the Launcher on first launch while creating a launcher shortcut locally on your computer to avoid any issues with your windows defender later. This shortcut is then later used to start the EVO Service Park Launcher. The bat file is then self-deleting after its mission, leaving you with the shortcut it created. And since he EVO Launcher is handing you full control over your installation it awaits your input on what components you want to install. Start the launcher and go to the one-click installer and select all the components you want to install. Want even more control, go to the advanced installer and select precisely only which parts for what stage you want to install or try out. If you need any additional help or information just direct message me here or hit me up on discord (@donpedro1921)

works now. (the download button in the text needs to be updated too, when a new download becomes available. The download link of the attached file at the very bottom of the post will always work)

Steven Bernaldo

Do i have to launch the game with the evo launcher for this mod to work or can i still just use the rally sim fans launcher ? cheers

Richard Burns Rally EVO

Depends. Some functions will only work if launched through the launcher: Namely, the on start-up and loop randomizers and also the wheel button mappings will only work when the game is launched through the EVO launcher thingy. Everything else, weathers, particles, retextures will be applied no matter what method you use to launch RBR. It was not intended initially to have the launcher so present after initial install of the mod but some functions are not possible to perform without a final "trigger", which is now performed by the "Launch RBR EVO" button, sorry.

Miles Keaton

why does this add an annoying blur effect to the cockpit view? That's not remotely realistic

Richard Burns Rally EVO

It's not and it's notintended. It's well documented in the manual. You have several options: In the free EVO version you can: - open the reshade menu (numpad0) and deactivate the DoF effect entirely. - you can use the shortcut ctrl+A in game to deactivate the DoF temporarily while driving an d reactivate it again in replays. - you can go to the reshade window/add-ons tab and check/uncheck the depth buffer option (my preferred method in this instance) In the EVO Patreon version you have several additional options to deal with this and have it managed automatically for you through the Service Park settings (keyword: dynamic reshade presets)

Richard Burns Rally EVO

If you need additional help with that you can look in the manual (it's annoying I know) or just direct message me here or even better on discord (@donpedro1928)
