    Hello,
    The game installs and runs fine, but there is no updater.exe or anything like that.
    I have included the update.log, but it doesn't look like anything is happening.

    Thanks for the help,

    This is usually caused by anti-virus or firewall blocking the connection - please try reinstalling with those disabled.

    Sorry, I have been away from my computer in the past week. I'll let you know if this works tomorrow when I can try it.
    Thanks

    Excuse the double post,
    I have tried creating a Firewall exception for the BeamNG.Drive installer, the only problem is that it is the Updater.exe that is getting blocked. And to make that worse the first thing the updater does is delete Updater.exe, so I can't create an exception.

    Any idea how to go around this?

    Thanks

    You could disable your firewall/anti-virus completely temporarily (nothing is going to happen, unless your computer is literally plugged directly into the internet)

    Duh! Why didn't I think of that.
    It is all okay now and works perfectly.
    Thanks for being so quick to respond.
    I am going to have a lot of fun with this.
