All my RW routes are gone

[Ghosttrain666]

HI

I have I major problem. I have yesterday installed the boxed version of RW and it worked fine. Then I installed all my Assets and my routes. This worked fine too.
I had RW restarted a couble of times it worked fine too. Then this morning I started RW again, and now there are problems. My route box are empty, no routes to drive on.
I have tryed to start the packager and here I can see the routes, and in package manager I can see all the installed packagedes. I have also tryed to uninstall my owne routes and packagies, I have tryed almost all the trix in the book, but it don´t help, What can be done about this problem ?

EDIT: It works now and here is what I did. IT`S NOT a valid solution but it works for me. I whent into Add/Remove programs and tried to uninstall Microsoft Net.Framework 2.0. It told me that I could not remove Net.Framework 2.0 because other programs where using it.
( There was no other programs runnig at this time ) Then the usual stuff "Send rapport" to MS appered. After this i started my RW, and now I could see all my routes again.

HI
My last solution only worked for a few hours. After rebooting my comuter all my routes was gone again. I have tried all kinds of updates via Steam ( Also check integrety ) but i does not help. So anyone got any ideas ?

How did you install the routes ? eg copy and paste, via the package manager or by some other method ?

HI
The first time I used copy/paste for both routes and Assets, and this work one hole day. Then the routes disappered. I tried the to install my route again using the manager, but still no routes. So I am at little bit lost.

EDIT: It looks like it is working now. I deleted all the blueprintfiles in the kuju folder, and now my routes are back

Assets can, in the majority of cases, be simply copied and pasted striaght into the RW Assets Directory. The exception to this is for the Kuju directory, but some say all works well if you select "Don't overwrite" when asked.

For your routes, you should either package them up to an .RPK, or as has been mentioned already, use Mikes tools.

As Chris says the routes can't just be copied and pasted from RS, as RW handles routes differently.

Hi
Yes i do now all about what to do if the route or the assets comes from RS, but what happened was the RW backups of routes and assets which failed to load, even it was a coplete copy of the Content and the Assets folders.

[smarty2]

Actualy RS.com do not recommend copy and pasting as this may be the cause of a lot of the proc errors in game, as the assets have not been upgraded if needed into RW's, i will give an example i am currently making a scenario for Erich's fantastic Denmark 2000 route and decided to place an Ai train consisting of the transpetrol HGk class 66 although it seemed to work i had a proc error, so i decided to delete it and have had no proc error so far without it! So be careful until these RS assets have been checked out by the authors, Also the payware addons must be installed using the DVD/Addon button when this has been activated by RS.com, that is the advice i have been given by them.

Im sure, that Ghosttrains666 knows all about Denmark 2000

And perhaps more of the proc errors comes by using 3 parts assets ? Even when its transported to RW.

All my routes have now disappeared too!!! I have nothing new installed, I have the default installation. I haven't tried to build a route or installed any content, not even the RS version of the official Shunter pack.

Just now I launched RW and Steam downloaded an update for Rail Works. So I waited till I got the all clear to continue and launched Rail Works and bang, my route list is completely empty!!!

Trying to bite my tongue but I can't... I HATE STEAM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Any help appreciated!!

Try deleting the bluprints.pak file from the kuju folder, it seemed to fix it for another user earlier in the thread.

Sorry, what is the route path for Rail Works? I've looked in Program Files\Valve\Steam... but can't see it.

Well for me it is ..:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\railworks\Assets\Kuju

btw do it for all the kuju folders

[Paul_Boland]

Thanks, I found it. There are no blueprint.pak files in the Kuju folder itself but it has three subfolders and there are blueprint.pak files in them. Is it those I delete?
