Re: Mega Bug
I've been using the search replace tool all night and this afternoon, there's definitely nothing wrong with that. I don't use it for DDS conversion so I'll leave that open.

Re: Mega Bug
Can you tell me exactly what you are trying to do when you get this problem? The Search Replace Text code has not been changed for years?blade2014 wrote:Hi there seams to be a mega bug in the tools update 6.0.30 when using the search replace text and converting dds back there's a hang then not responding then it starts working or it crash out program not responding
As for the convert .dds - this also has not changed in the latest patch?

Re: Mega Bug
when changing the track of a route i do it the way your pdf says when Search Replace Text it run thorough a Short way then just freezes then Search Replace shuts down and also can mess up the bin with missing stuffmikesimpson wrote:Can you tell me exactly what you are trying to do when you get this problem?

Re: Mega Bug
Well, I just removed all of the electric wiring/gantries from the JT Edinburgh-Newcastle route, and it all worked fine, here is a V2 crossing the Tweed at Berwick and no problems with the Search/Replace.

So I am sorry you have a problem, but as no one else has reported a problem with these functions, I can only assume you did something incorrectly.
To revert to your original settings in the route, there should be a 'Tracks.bak' file in the folder. Deleting the latest Tracks.bin and renaming Tracks.bak to Tracks.bin should get you back to your starting point.

Re: Mega Bug
What exactly have you typed in as the replacement text? If you have an illegal/unsupported character in there it'd possibly fall over--as would any .xml editor.blade2014 wrote:when changing the track of a route i do it the way your pdf says when Search Replace Text it run thorough a Short way then just freezes
