Ferrovia sul confine Italia-Francia V3.0 -- released

[chrisreb]

I have gone and moved my ever increasing sizeable Kuju folder out of the assets folder into a new storage folder within Railworks and done a Game verification to let steam install a fresh new Kuju folder in readyness for what may or may not work.
Have also put a copy of this newly downloaded Kuju folder into this storage folder. What I find time consuming is having to copy over between the two each time when you change routes which dont work with either one or the other. Does having the two Kuju folders together in the Assets folder work fine, and a lot quicker if you rename them from one to the other each time you need to swap them ? ( I hope this makes sense, as each time I read over it seems as though it dose'nt)

I have 5 Kuju folders with no issues at all. Just a couple of quick renames and you are done. Tip : put in a titled notepad file into each in case you ever lose track of what folder it is. e.g. a txt file called KujuUK2

Thanks Chris, Good idea about the notepad identifer in each though. No reason then why this couldn't be applied to any other asset folder then except for the fact that the Hard Drive space used would be massive with all the double ups.

Agree HDD space is an issue but with drives now pretty cheap a 2TB is worth getting. My TS2013 disk usage is gigantic although I make every effort to rationalise routes where possible. I have a folder for US routes, one for Northern Euri and one for Southern Euro routes. I also have a few separate Kuju or entire asset sets for very problemmatical routes that I really want to have running.

Hi Antony,

Renaming folders or using the DOS Move command (as long as it is on the same HDD partition) is the fastest way to move folders. The copy command takes forever.

So yes your post makes a lot of sense.

This solution does not convince me.
Apart of the cumbersome operation, I see another drawback: this movement of folders will result a constantly fragmented hard drive, which will negatively affect the performance of the simulator.

So has the problem of the missing track been fixed, if not, is it likely to be fixed anytime soon?

[Ajay1]

Still no news as to when we are likely to see this back ?

Hi guys. Sorry for letting you wait. But wasn't much online lately neither working on the route. But there are some nice scenarios in the making. As soon as the E656 engine (amicitreni.net) is released, I'll release a clean version of my route.... and scenarios too.

Hopefully this will be done until the end of the year...

Ciao, Pasquale.

[johnwatto]

Thanks John, I will be looking forward to your new version.

Have a great Christmas and New Year

Hi Railworkers...

Version 3.1 is ready to release. My tester (chrisreb --> thanx buddy) will test the route and in the next couple of days I'll upload the route on my website.

A surprise scenario pack is also in testing phase, shouldn't take more than two weeks to put this online too...

So, the waiting has come finally to an end

Ciao, Pasquale.

[johncoltrane]

So, the testing phase is already done. No problems occurred. Means that the route is finally online. Also the first scenario (1 JC) is online. It's the same scenario which was online since Oktober, but I updated it. So, everything is ready on my page:

http://www.ferroviasulconfineitaliafrancia.ch

The route will be also available on UKTrainSim and Rail-Sim.de

Eventually I'll upload a second scenario tonight. For the surprise scenario pack you will need to have some patience...

Ciao and happy download. Pasquale.

Hi Pasquale,

Nice to see it back up again. Just downloaded and insdtalled it and the scenario, ran it throught RWTools which came up trumps with no problems no assetts, rolling stock or required routes missing. After the loading screen the dreaded SBHH popup appeard .So Im not sure what happened there? Maybe the download did not complete. Will redownload and try again.

cheers

Antony

Have just redownloaded and tried to reinstall with package manager ( last time was a manual copy install) and got the same result. so is a no go with me down here.

Hi

Route is sensitive to large asset folders. I run it with some other South European Routes and it is fine but will not run with any larger Asset Folders. I would try that rather than give it up at this stage.
