Missing RouteProperties.xml - Advice Needed

[wyliecoyote]

I'm after after some advice please. I've been doing some spring cleaning on my TS2014 installation and after using the NameMyRoute facility, I have 9 routes which are missing the RouteProperties.xml file, a mixture of both DTC and 3rd Party routes.

Before I start looking into this and investigating further, is this anything to worry about?

Thanks
Andrew

Think I've found some advice here.

That's more than likely the reason, but if you posted the rather cryptic GUID folder names of the routes we could translate those into real English so you'd see just what they are/supposed to be.

List as requested. I've think I've figured most of them out but any pointers greatly appreciated.

123xyz..etc(.AP Route)

could explain a lot of them, if NameMyRoute can't look inside .ap archives it won't be able to report the RouteProperties.xml

The folder 00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000 was a bug of some sort, Steam downloaded it to some users, but all it contains are several hundred empty folders, all with hex names.

Those routes in .ap files are invisible to namemyroute.exe because although that is a RSC utility, it does not have the ability to read inside the .ap folders.

There is an option in RW_Tools to just extract the RouteProperties.xml files from within the .ap files if you want to see what each route is.

Mike,
I wonder if you would be kind enough to elaborate on this. For example, is it a one command for all routes or does the user have to do each route individually ?

Many thanks for your wonderful utility,

There is/was a bug in RW_Tools which only extracted the RouteProperties.xml from one .ap folder at a time. I have fixed it and will upload a patch asap.

Sorry about that.
