Railworks America

Couple hours ago I was testing my Big Boy mod on BSB, then when I exited TS2012 I was asked by Steam apllication to update the Steam Client (not an especific RW3 update). I proceeded once I have many other Steam Games. Then when I tried to restart TS2012 got the SBHH and even Windows crashed (blue screen).

Checking \railworks folders, I found some new (date was modified) files, among others: BlueprintSchema.XML, WrapperSettings.xml, and all ScenarioProperties.xml and ScenarioProperties.xmlMD5 of all (159) scenarios of BSB (including my own) were updated (same modified date). Tested some and all working except those of Big Boy (which I was working with). There was also a empty file (nothing within) del_blueprint.bat. And my splash screen was set back to the default configuration (but Railworks.exe is still the same).

I restarted WIn7 again, re-installed the mod and worked. The del_blueprint.bat was gone (as it came, misteriously).

I also noticed that was changed the -000014+000016.bin file in BSB folder "\Networks\Road Tiles" folder. It seems they (who?) fixed something in that tile and rebuilt all scenarios of route.

In other words, some ninja played in background (with no warn) with my installation, as usual... not good Well.. at least, so far, didn't see anything about yet.

Beware!

Cheers,
Doc.

Edited later: date of (second) update that caused the weird behavior was on 21th, in fact. OP's title corrected.

Strange, I haven't gotten any SBHH errors or blue screens. Maybe it's something with your computer?

If was, was fixed when I rebooted. So far didn't have other problem.

Did you have the update also? all your BSB scenarios have a new and same modified date/time? and you got the new tile bin I mentioned?

I got a steamclient update tonight as well. No problems that I know of. Was running RW for a few hours and did some LA Noire also.

Same as Bob, I got a Steam Client update last night, no RW update that I know of.

Funny all the RouteProperties.xml files say they were modified today after the steam update

That's what I said. Yesterday night I got a Steam Client update also, and today early night again when happened the BSB route update for all scenarios. Maybe the problem I had was due to my Splash Screen was opened when I did the Steam Client update.

BTW robbit, sometimes I'm playng L.A. Noire also! What a car headlight, and hand flashlight eh?

I think this part was for Bob Atrim I had to look up what L.A. Noire was.

Wrong Bob...

Another Steam Client update last night. WTH?

FWIW... No Steam Client updates here since 8/4/12. I will add that RW3 Ts2012 is the only game have installed on my system... Definitely not a game person, just have been entranced with trains for over 70 years.

I got another STeam client update today and all my route properties.xmls are dated 8/12/2012, but nothing else is.

Very strange it is not just the default routeproperties.xmls files it is the same with one I am working on as well.

Got another (the 3rd, I guess) today on BSB route for all ScenarioProperties.xml and ScenarioProperties.xml.MD5 (date 08/22/2012).

For all Routes, RouteProperties.xml are still 07/31/2012, not changed for the series of ninja updates on last three days.

Ummmm, guys and gals, I did say another Steam Client update. May have or have not a RW update included.
