To -days update

Post by J1o2h3n4 »

Once again, bootup RW's to find it's installing another update. Along with this information. I'm told to click "here" for information on this update. Only to find I'm directed to a display showing the latest marketing advert from DTG and no data on what they have just installed on my machine. What or why do they bother to infer they are giving us useful info?

Hi John

I know it can be frustrating when they update our systems but don't say what - these days I just open up Windows Explorer and order my TS2017 folders by "Date Modified". Look for the folders and files with today's date and that will give you a good idea as to what's been updated.

Thanks Ash,
according to Steam Community, it is as you say North London & Goblin route. Some have reported losing their North London Route post this update. But on checking my installation via RWTools I've still got NLL and NLL backdated (0......056/b)still in place.

I noticed the North London Line manual has been updated to be in the same format as the NLL + GOBLIN manual.
And the NNL Route has been updated - Networks, Route Information, Scenery & Terrain folders have today's date.

Not run the route to see what's changed

I agree, why oh why are they doing this? :o Very annoying and unprofessional (imo). Btw my update was 456.3 MB, pretty big. Is that only NLL?

OK, I checked today's TS 2017 folder updates by 'date modified' á la Ash so to say, and my updates comprise NLL, the class 378 and the class 59. Uncludes an updated Class 59 manual in French.

And also for me the Class67Pack03. It's the DB Schenker Class 67 included in South Wales Coastal: Bristol - Swansea Route.
