ObjectSet Filter bug

Post by RSAdam »

**IMPORTANT** - NOTE TO CONTENT CREATORS

Any route using assets from its own provider or that of the Kuju structure will currently work as required. This is because the route in question is being loaded from within its own provider set resulting in any assets also under that provider being loaded with it. The Kuju assets are loaded by default.

However, any route using assets from outside its own provider folder structure or that of Kuju/RailSimulator will fail to load because assets from outside these two locations are not being picked up by Rail Simulator as requirements to be loaded.

This is a known bug that is fixed in the up coming patch.

Example Situations:
  • Provider A creates a route using default assets (located under Assets/Kuju)
    • Route loads fine
  • Provider B creates a route and some assets to go with it (located under Assets/Provider B)
    • Route loads fine
  • Provider C creates a route, but uses assets by Provider D (located under Assets/Provider D)
    • Route fails to load

Odd, not had this problem with Ian's tool store.
I also have different "product" groups under my Provider name is that going to cause problems?

Nope, multiple Products by the same Provider is more than acceptable.

I downloaded Mark Brinton's Pedestal Platform from this site and installed it as per instructions in the Readme file. When I wanted to use it in my own route I had to go through the object set filter as instructed. After having placed a tick against the RailNetwork entry of developer MBrinton I could not find the platform anywhere. Also, the ckeckmark next to RailNetwork was gone. At first I thought this was because my RailSimulator speaks German to me and there was no German entry in the display name section. So I entered a German string there (using Mike Simpson's tool), but I cannot find the platform which should be found under linear objects/scenery/my_german_entry.
Is this another aspect of the problem described in this thread or a completely different problem at all?

Thank you,

It doesnt sound like its related. More that the platform has not been setup correctly or that its not listed in the right place.

I'm not sure if my question is related to this topic, but here goes anyway.

For the Dublin - Cork route I am building, I reskinned a number of the Kuju assets in the Kuju Rail simulator folder to make new assets which look more like Irish structures (e.g. some of the UK brick station buildings have been reskinned with limestone to provide the grey look of most of the old GSWR stations on the route, the UK procedural platform to an Irish style platform and the stock procedural red brick walls to limestone procedural walls and grey stone walls). These reskinned assets (which do not replace the stock assets but are additions) remain in the Kuju folder. and are listed in the normal way in the World Editor.

My question is if I package my route with Package Manager, will these new 'assets' be picked up and included in the rpk package or will Package manager assume that other users will have these items in their Kuju folder and have to download them items separately? In that case, can the 'new' assets be packaged separately (legally) for downloading?

By the way, I tried moving these reskinned assets to my developer assets folder but this does not work.

Hiya,

Nothing is picked up automatically by the Package Creator. Anything you want in the package you have to add manually at this stage.
