iracing not loading
can't load into races and practice on the UI but I'm able to load up test drives on the website. Everytime i try to load in on a race on the UI it says "loading error"

Perhaps you need to do an update first and make sure you have all the applied changes from the last update. I am guessing really, but that could be a reason for being locked out of online sessions.

but its weird tho. i can still load test sessions thru the website, but just can't do anything thru the UI. Which also means i can't race. Unless theres a way to join games from the website that i dont know of

Try the iracing forum to find a solution to this problem.

For the meantime, yes you can join thru the website, its just "complicated" to get to the offical races or whats hot page.
I suck at describing things like this so here are the links:

It might be the sim is still running. Task manager and see if you see Iracing Simulator running. It's usually right under another iracing thing. End task on the sim one, that should solve the problem.

Try this, unbelievably it worked for me:

Can't play Iracing since last update, I tried to reinstall the game but didn't work

Hi man, you can try a few things that comes to my mind:

1- Go to the root folder where Iracing it's installed, usually is C:\Steam\steamapps\common\iRacing, after that double click to Stop_iRacingService.bat and then Start_iRacingService.bat
2- You can check steam files integrity: go to your games library, right click on iracing/properties/localFiles and verify files integrity
3- (I'm not sure if this could work) go to iracing's web https://members.iracing.com/membersite/member/Home.do?page=guide and click settings, after that launch graphic config, take in mind that this will restart you graphics configuration, so be prepared.
4- Did you also try to sign races from the web page? if you don't know how to do it go to "Race now" green button on top right, on top left pick a series, then select a race or a practice session and you should be able to sign, or you can just click "Find official races" tab for races and select wathever you like

You must try one option and check if it worked, anyway good luck :D

One question I have: can you please share what the error message is when you try to enter a race or practice from the UI?

What's more: I had been facing an issue with the UI, I can't get it running from the web page, I can run it either steam or going to the directory where the UI it's installed

I Tried those fixes, Nowhing Worked, my files are valid, I already tried to open Iracing through steam or through the site, but I just can't enter the sim.

There is no error message, the only things that happens is an infinite loading (Sim Loading: 0%). I missed the entire week of the track I like most because I just can't open the sim and I got 0 log about it.

that's quite odd man, you should contact support or ask in the forum, because it's seems more like a file problem rather than the game itself... what's really odd is that you are not able to sign for practices or races from the website, I've never had problems with the website
