Howdy Folks. Working on my Danville Junction (St. Lawrence & Atlantic, in Maine) route I ran into a problem after installing the NEC (that's when I noticed it... not sure it's related). I've verified the cache in steam 3 times now.. no joy.

Hummmmm, looks like you are trying to use the Asset Block feature of Railworks 2012, and a whole bunch of us are having problems with it.

I suggest you place your trees in a test spot the normal way (without the Asset Blocker) and see if the trees remain. Also try laying your trees with the Asset Blocker and see if the problem remains.

For myself, I gave up trying to use the Asset Block (until/unless I get some good hints and advise) simply because I cannot even populate the interior of the empty square produced that I may spread it around in my geography.

It is always amazing to me that, most programmers, it seems, obviously knows how to use the very feature of a program they have produced, not realizing that the usisng public will NOT automatically know what to do with it.
And, it worked so perfectly on their own computer, not realizing that it most probably will be troublesome on other people's computers.

I think they work for Railworks !!**sorry**!!

The disfunctioning asset blocks are only a symptom. The assets from the core RailSumulator set are simply not there, or available in the menus (I included the video so people would see that)... There are many "normal" trees all over that area, but none of them are there as the assets they use are missing.

The only objects which still display properly are from the RaulSimulatorUS asset list. I can't even place anything else.

Followup: Uninstalling and re-installing the entire program fixed it.

Apparently verifying the steam cache 3 times wasn't enough. *!rolleyes!*

I noticed that your scenery detail was set at 9. Did you try 10 ???

What do you see in the video which suggests that?
