People get confused when file uploaders put incorrect information.

Take this recent upload http://railworksamerica.com/index.php/d ... :scenarios they say to install the scenarios using RW_AssetSetup.exe. A person on Steam was asking where this program was. I have not come across it since I have had TS since 2010. I suspect it is a program used from Railsimulator days. Anyway as the file was in RWP format I told them to use the utilities program. Perhaps the uploader of this file could correct his readme and instructions.

He probably just recycled an old Reame file and forgot to update the instructions.

I've updated the library item with new instructions.
Thanks.

Thanks for the fix-up, Chacal. Yep! I had recycled -- well -- just about everything I could. Hadn't uploaded a scenario here for quite a while and decided to "do it the easy way" -- nearly always a recipe for disaster. I'll try to be more careful next time -- if I remember to do so.

But Buzz, it's mean to call someone snowflake. I've been triggered. Now I need to run off to my safe space and make a "Buzz456 EXPOSED" video and launch a campaign against you.

Just pulling your leg. *!!wink!!*

This thread has completely unraveled into petty name-calling and other insults -- may I suggest locking it?

Sorry did you leave your sense of humor at the door? So get it back on track.

I don't see any name calling, besides "Snowflake" which is like 90% of millennials anyway

When snowflake becomes a "bad" word it's time to go back to the names that will make your ears bleed. The circle is round. *!twisted!* *!twisted!*
