Railworks America

OK, I'm puzzled, and hope someone might have a suggestion or two for me.

This happens consistantly in at least two routes so far. These are the GB Bighorn, and the CSX Mainline beta.

When I try to create a session or create a new one, all the turntables and transfer tables disappear! Not just visually, but completely. I can drive a loco right into the turntable pit. If I exit the session and re-enter it the assets are still gone.

If I load a different session, or edit the route itself they come back. But then if I try to create a new session they go away again. So far I've only tried it with these two routes; I'm afraid to try any more of them

Any ideas? Anybody???

With the advent of RW3, turntables (and manual switch stands) can disappear after saving an edit to the scenario. This affects both 3rd party addons and default items. The turntables are still there, but do not become visible until called on by the simulator. Once called on, they remain visible for any subsequent restarts of the scenario, until the scenario is edited again. To work around this (if it is a problem to you), when editing the scenario, add a locomotive and driver to a track approaching the turntable (making note of the service name); save the scenario; select the locomotive and press g (or shift g) to align the turntable with the active track. The turntable is now visible and will remain so. If you do not want to leave the engine and driver at that position in your scenario, exit TrainSimulator 2012, and edit the scenario using RW_Tools to delete the added locomotive, save the changes to the scenario, and then also use the delete empty consist button for the scenario. The scenario should then be usable per your original intention and the turntable will be visible.

Thanks, I'll give that a shot. I tried something similar to that with a transfer table, and couldn't figure out shere the bridge was.

What's a session?

Activity = MSTS
Session = Trainz
Scenario = Railworks

All the same, different names though.
