Aaaaaand gotcha.

Appdata>Local>VirtualStore>Program Files>LFS

Outgauge was set to port 11111, hence lack of any feedback.

All sorted now, works with LFSLazy running too, billy bonus.

The strange things Windows does with LFS sometimes.

To update this, I've managed to get this working, but I don't quite understand what's going on yet! So, I tried running LFS as an admin. Confusingly, it seems to be using the cfg.txt in the install folder now, but what cfg.txt was it using before?!?!?!? Evidently it's a different one, somewhere else...

Yup, you've got the same settings as me. (as I'm sure you're aware Outgauge mode 1/2 just means in race/in race+replay)

Works fine with dirt rally, ets2 and assetto corsa.

It's been doing it since K, if I remember correctly.

I've gone through and completely opened 29999 and 30000 on both inbound and outgoing connections in Windows Defender, as well as opening all ports for both the LFS and Fanaleds executables, no luck.

Nothing other than the stock windows defender.

Raised this before on LFSForum but still having no luck. Fire up fanaleds, fire up LFS, /insim 29999, and in game it says; InSim : port 29999 InSim - TCP : Fanaleds 2.3i InSim : version 0 requested - using 6 InSim guest closed : Fanaleds 2.3i In Fanaleds we have; Status: Running Game: Live For Speed...
