Tkutils has Horace and it fixes this problem. Should be on ts.com somewhere.


I'm using tsUtils with its 'cvrt' function.

Quick update - the mosaicking feature in the new route editor is amazing!

For older built routes that were built with old Global tsection before the 40000 length tables ones,........SNIP..............

Quote

THIS IS TOP OF LOCAL ( in a Route )TSECTION.DAT. FILE
IF SECTION CURVE IS 376, ROUTE WAS BUILT WITH DEFAULT MSTS \GLOBAL\TSECTION.DAT BUILD.
SIMISA@@@@@@@@@@JINX0T0t______

TrackSections ( 32
TrackSection (
SectionCurve ( 0 ) 376 8 0

BELOW IS TOP OF LOCAL ( in a Route )TSECTION.DAT FILE IN A ROUTE BUILT WITH A STANDARDIZED GLOBAL\TSECTION.DAT. THAT WOULD BE THE BUILD 0038 MENTIONED IN THIS THREAD.
NOTE THAT THE SECTION CURVE LINE READS 40000.
THAT MEANS ONE OF TWO THINGS.
1. THE ROUTE WAS BUILT WITH THE NEW STANDARDIZED (X-TRACKS COMPATABLE) GLOBAL\TSECTION.DAT (like build 0038)
OR
IT WAS A ROUTE BUILT ORIGINALLY WITH A MSTS DEFAULT \GLOBAL\TSECTION.DAT (THE TOP EXAMPLE) ANF THEN RE-INDEXED USING THE HORACE OR ARCHIBALD UTILITIES TO DO THE JOB.

EITHER WAY YOU END UP WITH THE LOCAL (ROUTE) TSECTION.DAT FILE LIKE IN THE EXAMPLE BELOW.
SIMISA@@@@@@@@@@JINX0T0t______

TrackSections ( 2078
TrackSection (
SectionCurve ( 0 ) 40000 3.96 0


Thats it folks, about the simplest way to explain it.
Basically. if you attempt to edit a route built with a different global tsection file you will instantly slag the route if so much as select/de-select a Dynamic Track section followed by a save. Poof!

vince

Not tsutils, TKUtils. Different stuff. The later has the Horace utility which is what you want to use to fix your problem. See post by Vince, just above.

tistvanek - if you want to edit interactives - remember that now only platforms/sidings/carspawners are fully supported. Removing other track items will damage your route.

Thanks for the updates for that! Do you by chance have an idea of an eta for Speed Posts? Please do not take this as rushing, as I'm just curious about that. :) What with the PRR Eastern Region not having a .ref file, for whatever reason, I'm awaiting editing on that route for speed posts, so I can do some editing that way.


Thank you also for the work you have done in this route editor so far, Goku. I am loving it!

Goku,

You are doing one heck of job on this. :) Pace yourself and do not burn yourself out. I'm sure you are aware of some of the many weaknesses with the MSTS route editor such as performing a save with an object selected and the possible repercussion for doing so.

It is a different stuff. What I mean is TSUtil has the same functionality as Horace. By the way, it is very powerful stuff. Check if you are interested.

The editor does not work for me. All I get is a black screen after I select a route. Is there any way to correct this?
