Well, I see that it hasn't worked for no one except me, sorry... If it helps, I've made a video that shows how I do it:

Hmm... try to click *as fast a possible* and do it for a few minutes. For me it works most of the times after a few seconds :/

It's a solution for people who get the error "Cannot validate version". Somehow, when you try to start the game enough times, it finally starts.

Yes, like you would do without this bug.

What do you mean?

Hey guys, As many of you, I have the problem with validating the version of the game. Fortunately, I have found a temporary solution. All you have to do is to click on the multiplayer icon on your desktop as fast as you can. Ignore the errors, and just keep clicking. After a few seconds to a few minutes the game should start. After that, when you're in game, you may get another error while trying to connect: "Unknown authentication error". The solution for that is the same - click on the "play" button as fast as you can. I hope the solution will work for you as it does for me

Thank you for your help, but same problem

Unfortunately it still doesn't work. And I'm sure I'm selecting the correct directory, because if I try to select another directory it shows me an error.

Hey, I updated my game today to the new version, 1.14 + downloaded the new version of ETS2MP. However, when I try to open the launcher I get an error says "Cannot validate version". I tried installing the game again twice (on different places), tried installing again ETS2MP a few times, even tried disabling my antivirus (nod32) and firewall - but nothing. And I played today with the old version of the multiplayer fine, the problem is with the new version. I wish you can help me.
