RW_Tools download link & current version

Hi Alan,

32767 is the magic number, somewhere I have declared a variable as an integer when it should be a long. See how easy it is to debug when the user sends the correct details - I will fix and upload a new one asap.

Thanks Mike - I thought 32767 was significant. Takes me back to my days machine coding BBC Micros.

Hi Alan,

Seems like this place is populated with us oldies, it was writing Assembler for the Tandy TRS_80 and Commodore C64 in my case

New version v2.2.61 is now on my site which should fix the problem.

Hi

I am experiencing the same Error #5 invalid procedure call or argument when running the latest version of RWTools (3) and trying to edit assets such as locomotives.

I am using a laptop running on Windows 7, and get the error whether running under Administrator mode or any other mode.It causes the laptop to crash -requiring a Task Manager "battering" to get out of RWTools.

The one odd thing I noticed was that when I used to run the old version of RWTools on a Windows XP laptop, in the "build list of assets" screen,the files in the big window space in the bottom half of the screen used to appear without problems.This part is greyed out on the new laptop.

It is though Railworks is not reading from the C drive on the new laptop. When I set up RWTools on the new Windows 7 laptop, I just set it up exactlly as on the old Windows XP one and did not set up any paths.

(I have not carried out any changes to any files)

I am very confused, please could someone advise further?


Many thanks

Kind regards

Peter

Hi Peter,

If you did not set up any paths in RW_Tools, then it will not know where to find your TS 2012 program.

If RW_Tools is correctly set up, then the path to TS2012 must appear in the top window border as under:-



If you did not reinstall the full version of RW_Tools on your laptop and merely copied the files across from the XP machine, this would not work, some of RW_Tools files are installed in the Windows\Syswow64 folder which does not even exist under XP.
