Using Weather Theme on another route

Post by alpenman »

Hello All,

Is it possible to use a weather blueprint from one route on another? I would like to use the Story of Forest rail weather on another route. If I add its assets in scenario editor I don't get the correct weather, and If I copy the environment folder to the route I want to use it on I get a Black sky. Does anyone have a tutorial on how to do this?

Dead easy to do.

How exactly did you do this?...just by ticking the Provider/Product boxes?

The weather used is more scenario specific than route specific, but if you want to assign a new default weather pattern for a route you need to edit the routes RouteProperties.xml file (found in ..\Content\Routes\<GUID>) to point to the weather pattern you prefer, and also in the route's template file (a .bin file found in ..\Assets\<Provider>\<Product>\TemplateRoutes
To change the weather in a scenario you double click the scenario marker and in the configuration box make the changes.
