Sounds like one of the files in your route is corrupted. Go to your last backup.

Hi

If all other routes work OK then I would guess that that there is something wrong with the scenario folder for your route, perhaps a 0 byte file has appeared. Try deleting the basic free roam scenario and then start up the route again. RailWorks should create a new basic free roam scenario and get rid of any anomalies in the old one. You could use RW Tools to test the route and that should indicate if there are any problem files and where.

Don't forget the importance of clearing the blueprint cache regularly as this might solve the problem on its own.

It is a bit of a mystery as to why these odd occasions of SBHH occur but I can get this sort of problem if I try to do something in RW that is too fast for the program to follow. Try and work at a steady pace and let the computer complete what it is doing before moving on.

Can you say exactly what the SBHH message is. There may be a clue in there somewhere.

Can you confirm that it only happens on the one route.

Is it not just the InitialSave error that occurs with new routes?

Hi mate, when you deleted the original free roam, did you create another?

If so, this might be worth a shot, my instuctions near the bottom for deleting the initialsave.bin.

Railworks should do that automatically when you run the route again.

When you get the message that something bad has happened, there should be a message in the same box that might refer to a scenario or perhaps it mentions line 113.
