RailWorks Proc Error with track sound properties

Post by phat2003uk »

When route building and I toggle through the track properties with the space bar, the track sound properties section makes the sim instantly give a Proc error and the track disappears. Has anyone had this and found a fix?

I had the same type of thing thing happen with me recently. This was after I had Railworks running for several hours already and using the editor to work on my route. I used the space-bar to scroll through to highlight the various track properties, then the program crashed with the same type of error. After relaunching Railworks a couple more times, and trying the editor again and trying the same thing, I got the same error. Hmmm, this was very strange I thought, and I had never had that error before while using the editor.

I had my computer on already for most of that day, and had Railworks running for several hours, so I thought perhaps there was a chance it was some kind of memory-leak error, or some conflict wasn't clearing properly from the memory... So I went and shut-off my computer, then restarted it. Loaded up RailWorks, used the editor on my same route, tried to see if I could re-produce the same error, but this time everything seemed to be working ok without any problems.

I learned also after encountering this problem (even though its only happened the one occurrence for me so far as I described above) to often save any you changes you make via the editor, just in case the program does crash like this again, then I wouldn't lose too much work progress.

PS: Be sure to close or disable any unnecessary programs that be be running in the background (anti-virus, messengers, etc..), before launching Railworks, as these may possibly cause conflicts.
