So I recently downloaded the SFM Reloaded route but it has a problem where a long section of track is elevated and I don't know if it can be fixed. This route was updated by somebody on RailSim.de from the original route. I have tried clicking on the sections of elevated track but I have no idea on how to bring them back to the proper position. I had a thought - Could the Tiles on the new but faulty section be replaced with the same numbered Tiles from the original route - would that solve the problem or would it mess up the whole lot? I don't know enough about route building I can just about change track properties speed/direction/electrics etc Any thoughts?
Not sure, but track height data is not stored in tiles, only curvature (horizontal plane - distance, length and curvature of each section). The height is in tracks.bin. (Basically the HUD track monitor is a visual representation of tracks.bin, what the game "sees". It knows no curves, but grades.) I'd tag atomicdanny, asking won't hurt.
I have a feeling that someone has moved an arrow on track - that's a big never ever do (well more of a yes and no - because it basically raises the track for the entire length - I think up to a junction or something - I've made that mistake before and painful ) Anyway - the track tiles folder, i believe has the end of the track ribbon - so a section of track each end is the ribbon? I believe that's all stored in the files - from the routes that I've merged where I've had overlapping tiles, the track doesn't appear if the tile is removed (basically me testing the route before i merge a track tile file together, to rule out that as a crashing issue - it happens when there are duplicates in those). Short answer no, long answer yes but it's a LOVE**** pain to do so, basically you have to go down the track and lower each yellow arrow, although is it a fault in the download or did you move something by accident? (notes - i self censored myself ) Sadly nope, it's in the tracks.bin file - so that won't fix it
The author of the rework ("Thurbo GTW") himself said he wasn't able to fix it. I'll stick with the old version of that route. As Prelli (Konstanz-Villingen track layer) said - "no backup? Forget it."
Ah fair - I mean it probably is possible just a pain to do so, although is that a belgian route? (i mean i would look but guessing there are probably a fair few asset requirements, and payware that i don't have )
Shows what i know! (I thought Belgian because of the B on the train in the pic but i didn't look close enough at the OHLE )
It is a Belgium loco and train as I did not have a FS loco to use for a Quick drive. The original route is quite good and I will stick with that. Thanks for the help
Yay there is some hope for me! (I mean when i went on a at least 2 TS1 research trips, going via Belgium, i thought it was familiar so at least I'm glad I'm right about the train Np
