    Hi, will created content be compatible with the MS Store version of the game? I bought the game there for playing it on both XBOX and Windows.

    I saw some statements regarding the Epic and the Steam version, but never for MS Store. Could someone help please?

    This is how my TSW4\Content-Folder looks like. Maybe if we have the same structure everywhere, it could be compatible.

    |-Engine
    |-Resources
    |-TS2Prototype
    appxmanifest.xml
    gamelaunchhelper.exe
    layout_56544d39-3230-3053-c05a-4a33474b4e00.xml
    MicrosoftGame.config
    resources.pri
    UE4CommandLine.txt

    The official Add-Ons have seperate sub-folders on the main folder of the Windows Store, so handeled like different games.

    I think it only works with the steam version I'm not entirely sure.

    Good question but for mods you dump them into the TS2 folder. I used a signal mod

    I tried to start the editor after downloading it from the Epic games store. It crashed with a "fatal error":

    So this could a sign that there's no compatibility.

    So to use the Editor, you must have the Steam or Epic Games version of TSW4, which was specified when the editor was launched. However, I don't know if mods would work for the Windows store version or not.

    Mods do work on Windows store version you dump them to the TS2 Prototype folder. I tested this myself what it did was force the game into an updated

    The first mod I tried out was this one: NX110&TRI n-Wagen - Train Sim Community
    The .pak file needs to be copied into the folder TSW4\Content\TS2Prototype\Content\Paks

    Hope that's the same for other contents. :)
