SOO LINE AND SEATTLE

[TDHenderson]

Still trying to get the SOO Line to run. Uninstalled the route files and re-installed, still get a SBHH. Going to try the assets next.

Buzz, if you can remember anything about what you did I would be very grateful.

Trevor

Have you tried loading this scenario?

Which one?

[TDHenderson]

Didja unload ver 4 and 4.5? I looked back at my notes and took them both out and then re-installed them.
Buzz

Yes I did. Only thing I didn't do is delete the route folder before I re-installed.

[TDHenderson]

Found I am missing two items.

c:\program files (x86)\steam\steamapps\common\railworks\Assets\3DTrains\ScaleRail\roadnetwork\junctions\us_rural_w2l2x_c1b2.bin (Road Item) on tile +000000+000000.bin
c:\program files (x86)\steam\steamapps\common\railworks\Assets\Kuju\RailSimulatorUS\railnetwork\transferpts\yard\lstoneunload\lstoneunload.bin(Track Item) on tile Tracks.bin

Strange thing is, before I reinstalled I was only missing the ScaleRoad item. After uninstalling the route the lstoneunload.bin went missing. I did not think uninstalling the route would have reached into the Kuju folder to delete something.

Going to reinstall the assets now. Fingers and toes are crossed.

Frustrating! Reinstalled the freeware and donationware assets and verified the game cache and am still missing those two items. No idea why the item in the Kuju folder did not come back after that.

Any ideas are appreciated.

I have that file (Kuju\RailSimulatorUS\railnetwork\transferpts\yard\lstoneunload\lstoneunload.bin) but it's in this folder (Allaboard/Trackplans/RailNetwork/TransferPts/Yard/LStoneUnload/LStoneUnLoad.bin).

Trevor

Want me to send it to you? Check your PM.

[TDHenderson]

Thanks Buzz, still no joy. RWTools says the file is missing from a directory I don't even have.

RWTools reports the following: ..\Kuju\RailSimulatorUS\RailNetwork\Transferpts
My directory structure: ..\Kuju\RailSimulatorUS\RailNetwork\TransferPoints

No idea what is going on. Am shelving this route for now until I have more time. Too bad, was my favorite.

Back to exploring Sherman Hill for me.

Trevor

That file should be right below the transfer points. I will send you the whole thing and you can stick it in when you get around to it.

[TDHenderson]

OK, I manually created the folder RWTools said I needed and now it does not show up on the missing asset list. But the SBHH continues.

Can you gents take a look and see if you have the following file?

..\Assets\3DTrains\ScaleRail\roadnetwork\junctions\us_rural_w2l2x_c1b2.bin

I have no files in that folder that have a w in it after the second underscore.

Thanks much,
Trevor

EDIT - Am using RWTools right now to remove that asset, hoping that does it.

[buzz456]

I do not have such a file in mine. Link to transferpts folder is in a pm.

[TDHenderson]

Well, RWTools reports no more missing assets, but I still get an SBHH. Next step, uninstall and delete the route's folder and start over.

Trevor

Have you tried the separate Asset folder approach. That is the only way I got SOO Line and BNSF Seattle to work?

Have not yet. Will try tonight.

Chances are any of these routes' assets were installed in the Kuju folders instead of the creator's own asset folder.
The whole of the Kuju folder might have gotten erased during the upgrade to TS2013.
So after the upgrade, SOO Line and BNSF Seattle Sub might not have been able to find essential core files and crash on loading.

When re-installing do not use the supplied program but open the pack in WinRar or 7Zip instead. Check carefully which folders are being used and do not allow core assets in the Kuju folder to be overwritten. Best do not allow the Kuju folders to be used at all. Move those assets into a new folder called EyeIn or something like that. After installation, run RW_Tools over the route and sort out any missing assets by hand by linking them to the same asset now located in the EyeIn folder.

[TDHenderson]

Thanks for the advice, will play around with it as soon as I can and report back.
