Is it just me or are there still no drivers visible in replays? I think I have the lastest update + latest bootfiles (april 29).
Cars DALLARA IR18 2023 MOD (Road Version) 1.0.4

Yes, despite my Steam updated AM2 so if I didn't get it wrong, we have to wait for new updates on the bootfiles to keep on using the mod.
As far as my experience goes, PC modding team already has the new bootfiles up every time I update.
Unfortunately I messed something up with not uninstalling mods when switching between RC and normal branch or updating and mods are no longer loading for me.

I always have a problem with the text files for the vehicle doc within the bootfiles. I would only get 1 team! Then KAOS turned me onto their doc file and it all worked. I can't believe it's the way I'm copying and pasting it. I do it just as it is explained. Is there something about text files and that maybe on windows 10 or something, maybe we sometimes can't use notepad or word document?
I enter them on the doc as instructed and it's like it doesn't see it. A few other people too where having the same problem
And the way the text lines too are laid out within the read me fil provided is not lined up left border. I tried both but it didn't work. Only when KAOS gave me their modified doc did it work. "?" I'm trying to figure out why. Anyone know?
The first one is KAOS's the second one is from the read me file they provide. Their over right over an inch from left border. No matter what I tried doing the sim wouldn't see the teams.

Has anyone noticed a dramatic performance decrease after about 5-10 laps with the Dalara IR18 Indycar 2023 mod? It's my absolute favorite mod right now, but doing a race more than 10 laps is not possible. First few laps my 4080 is 99% used and fps between 90-100 (I'm running 1440p triples), but after a few laps the GPU percentage dramatically decreases to under 50% and frames drop to below 50 fps. I tested this at several tracks and it's always the same result. Testing at the same tracks with other ams2 cars (not mods) gives always 99% used GPU and 90-100 fps. Something must be wrong with the mod. I made a recording of a 10 lap race. See what happens after lap 5.
Found the issue. Reinstalled both the bootfiles and the mod and now it's working fine. Consistent FPS throughout the race. This mod had just gone up to 5 stars for me!
If you find anything weird with the mod, like performance issues or missing drivers from the current download...
Please redownload the mod package...
I've checked it on my end and it's a download problem... I had to download the package twice to get it to work... On the first download it took ages and there were missing drivers and UI... The second download from here worked fine after a 10 minute download...
We know this is an issue as the file size increases, little we can do about it unfortunately... We will be trying our hardest to keep the file sizes down in the next builds, but as the oval package will come with more skins and models it will be a lot larger than the current package...

How do you use the alternative liveries?

There is a readme files in the zip, one of them, talk about override livery

Just a little tease
As said above there's a few readme files included in the mod to help with this...
You can use the livery override method or the modding method... Whichever you are more used to...
The folder is "dallara_ir_18_2023" for the livery overrides...
Thank you Steven. With that, the original post stated the following:
- 2023 alternate liveries provided (#2 Shell, #3 Pennzoil, etc.)
Thanks!
These liveries should be in the livery override folder... But... They will be outdated for the upcoming release as we've made some mapping changes to the model to make them easier to paint... As well as added some bits and revised some others...
The Penzoil livery for #3 will show up at Indy and there's 2 Shell liveries for the #2, one will show at Indy and the other at Gateway... The PPG will show at Fontana...

Look like you have probably did same mistake as me, installing the PC2 bootfiles instead of AMS2been working great until now on 1.4.7.2 , boot files no longer work.
And yes liveries for GMR (50%done) and Indy (90%) are on the go
