Re: Portsmouth Direct Line Updated

Update on my last post.

The route has installed OK.

I copied one scenario across from the DTG original, cloned it with a new name in RW Tools and deleted the scenario I copied across. The scenario shows up in both routes, with different names and IDs, of course, and runs in the new route..

Lots of steam and early diesels from 1959 to 1963.

No. Up to now I have always used Workshop via the Steam interface.
So decided to try what you suggested.
And lo and behold! It downloaded mega-loads of stuff, mostly scenarios
I'd subscribed to (I guess) AND the PDL updated route.

So thanks Alan (?) / alanch for that - just shows you really do learn something new every day!

There's no problem using the Steam interface to subscribe to Workshop items, though I'm not sure whether it checks for dependencies in the same was that TS does. However, although this will download the compressed files I believe they don't get installed in TS until you go to the Workshop tab.

Sorry coming a bit late to the party but came across this whilst thinking about where to run the new AP class southern 313 - and found your hard work which is truly excellent. Can I say a big thank you and also especially appreciated the additional portals making scenario writing a doddle. Oh and the 313 looked very good on it too :D
