Branford Steam RR - BSRR

[sqk4477]

Good Morning LawDoctor,

Another Tool you can try is to create a Clear Blueprint Cache Batch File. I use this when making large changes.

Best,
~SQK

--

1. Open a new/blank NOTEPAD
2. Paste the following and verify that the RAILWORKS PATH is the same as your setup
3. Name the file TS2017ClearCache.bat and save to your Desktop
4. You may need to remove the .txt extension
5. Double-click to Run

=====COPY BELOW THIS LINE========================

ECHO OFF
CLS

ECHO *
ECHO Clearing Blueprint cache, wait!
ECHO *

REM Change the following line to the correct path to your Railworks folder
SET RW="C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common"
REM The next line cleans all cache files
DEL /S %RW%\Blueprints.pak*

ECHO *
ECHO Task completed. Cache Cleared !!!!!
ECHO *

PAUSE
EXIT

Dear, sqk4477:

I had stevens pass installed on 12/22/16 and I have deleted and reinstalled it again along with both Branford steam railroads! I have done everything you have told me! Further, I have cleared, and verified cache numerous times and still no crossing signals on 3 of six sites on branford short line. Tell me if this is true or not, If I did not have the steven pass asset pack I would not be able to get any crossing signals or gates on any of the branford short line crossings. If it is true why do I have 3 of the 6 with gates. Is their another asset I may be missing that you can think of?

Thanks for Posting LawDoctor,

The Stevens Pass Asserts are definitely not loading. You are also missing some road textures + driveways.
Please try the batch File process below.

Thanks!

The strangest thing happened when I deleted and tried to reinstall stevens pass it downloaded and installed but the asset did not show up in the game. The thing installed the first time bought it and I was able to use the asset, but , now it does not appear in game nor in the files. Once again, your right, it must be a hidden installation problem not verified by steam which contends it is installed when it isn't. Once, again, thank you for the privilege of your time!

I finally reinstalled stevens pass. We still don't have the lights and gates on three streets mentioned earlier. Is there a download missing that hasn't been mentioned to pick up grade crossings. I have downloaded the following: stevens pass, horseshoe curve, London faresham, Norfolk southern, munich Augsburg, Sherman hill, railworks asset pack, Canadian mountain pass, legacy asset foliage, platform clutter pack, vnhrr, pacific surf, colton northern, east coast mainline Peterborough, munich garnish, new York - new haven, Railworks 3 legacy scenarios, northeast corridor route. Could the upgrades in northeast corridor route from the classic one caused this issue? do I need another addon I missed? Please tell me. Once again, thank you for your time and patience. I will try blueprint next if no addon is missing from this list.

Hi Law Doctor,

Glad you are making progress. You should have all the assets. Did you run RS_Tools for missing assets, as stated earlier in the thread?

Thanks!

sqk,

Will run it now, I have it installed, what is the procedure I should do, should I go to content, then assets , to the actual bsrr file? Not sure?

Hi LawDoc,

Cool. I suspect that all of your issues are a result of the Funky Stevens Pass Install.

We are only using RS_Tools to look/read and not making any changes or edits.

1. Launch RW_Tools (version 7.0.22)
2. Root Building Tools (from the top toolbar)
3. Check Routes or Scenarios
4. Select BSRR - The Branford Steam RR
5. Select SHOW PROVIDER / PRODUCTS USED IN SELECTED ROUTE
6. In the Provider List Select GNTX - StevensPass
7. Select DISPLAY ITEMS USED FROM SELECTED P/P (Provider Product) *Note any Missing textures in Cyan
8. Check Selected Stock for Missing Files
9. Only Select EXIT, then EXIT again and close RS_TOOLS *we don't want to mess with any files here :)


Did you also try that blueprint clear cache batchfile I posted?

Thanks!

O.K., Sqk4477:


I have used the tool and it has found 423 missing items from scenery, to roads and the crossings. It's ironic too that when I have verified cache it shows the same amount of missing items as well. Do you want me to continue verifying cache and try to pick up any of the missing items? Should do the blue print now? You were exactly right in saying some of the textures did not install properly.

Yes you need to keep verifying until it says there is nothing missing.

Go look at the first page of this thread. The link is there.

I saw the link, that doesn't explain to me how I can get it for my game, it only lets me subscribe to it, I have no clue what to do

Well grasshopper, If you subscribe to it in a short time it will D/L like magic from the workshop to your computer assuming you have Steam open.
