Steve, I bow to your superior knowledge

I'm sure Richard Fletcher did a reskin of the Woodhead 08 into BR Blue---could be why there seems to be a bit of confusion regarding it.

EDIT: No, it's for the BR Woodhead version, and has detailing revisions.

Several scenarios require RSC/Class08Pack01. I have several Class 08 DLCs but not this one. Which DLC do I need to get this pack? I looked on Railworks Fleet but that didn't help.
Thanks
Peter

Class08Pack01 is the Marketplace BR Blue livery: https://store.steampowered.com/app/2758 ... on_Livery/
This is an addon to the Class 08 TOC pack: https://store.steampowered.com/app/2225 ... oco_AddOn/

It comes as one of the locos in the original RSC\Woodhead route. Good chance to purchase in the Summer Sale (£3.99)

Nick

The class 08 supplied with the original Woodhead route is in BR Black.

Thanks, Steve. That solved it.

I believe this DLC was removed and is no longer available at all.

I believe this DLC was removed and is no longer available at all.

However, there are plenty of copies of TS2018 available on a number of sites (usually for under £10), which contains North Wales Coastal

Google or Amazon will give several examples, such as

"https://www.hrkgame.com/en/games/produc ... ute-add-on" for £5.90, or
"https://www.instant-gaming.com/en/2326- ... zcQAvD_BwE" at £6.98, or
"https://www.eneba.com/steam-train-simul ... 4AQAvD_BwE" at £6.63

and many more

As we have still not heard from our usual host Colin ( Wotawally ), Xavier has kindly agreed to host our updated route with all previously reported fixes, for both route and scenarios, on his Backdatedtrainsim site - this will be a complete new route, assets pack which includes assets previously omitted and and a couple of additional scenarios......this can be obtained from - https://backdatedtrainsim.weebly.com/an ... outes.html#

Many thanks to Xavier for jumping in to help at short notice - please add any feedback/issues etc here so that Nick and I can deal with them.

Please find attached a document showing an issue I have experienced when using the Utilities program to install the Assets for this route.

Appreciate if you could point me in the direction of how this can be resolved.

Thanks.

[brysonman46]

Now that is a new one for me! If the folder "Assets\GordonMack" doesn't already exist on your computer, then the Utilities will create it! And then load the files into it. Have you pressed "Continue", and if so what happened. Incidentally, did you press "Refresh" before trying to Install!

Any file xxx.rwp is just another compressed file, and can be opened up using compression software such as 7zip, Winzip, or Winrar (I have a shortcut to 7zFM.exe on my desktop). The files can then be moved to the relevant folders (so move the Assets folder into the Railworks folder, and similarly with the Contents and Manual folders, and agree to overwrite)

hope all works out for you

regards

Nick

an issue I have experienced....

Can you install other .rwp packages?

[shinymac]

OK..so I am a little confused here....I presently have V4.0 installed, which as we know, had some issues. So v4.1 appears to correct those problems. Ok...so if all I want to do is to update from V4.0 to v4.1, what do I need to do ? Do I need to "start from scratch" ? And if not, what parts of v4.1 need installing ?

Thanks

According to the download page at Xavier's site:

PLEASE READ THE READ-ME for instructions on how to install, don't worry, it is simple.

so simple it's exactly the same set of instructions as for v4.

If you've edited any scenarios that you may wish to keep, just cut your v4 installation to somewhere safe before installing 4.1

Just proceed as if you were installing for the first time. Version 4.1 will overwrite Version 4, so say yes if asked to overwrite. The newer version contains the assets that were missed, and the updated version of the scenarios that were faulty (plus 3 new scenarios). The route itself hasn't changed. As Gary said, if you have amended any scenarios then cut them out to a safe place, and then put back later (but it is always better to clone a scenario before amending, so that the original stays in place).

I too have just had the Gordon mac problem, I clicked on "continue" but it just stalled.
The route installed no problem but the assets won't budge without this Gordon mc folder.
I do have a Gordon Mc folder as I have purchased his coaches so any help here appreciated guys. Ta.
