Ive had this issue as well. One step forward, two steps back. very annoying. I found it easier to just delete one board at a time in surveyor 1 than constantly restart the program.

Thanks for the offer, its a darn big route though and In my efforts to save it, i have multiple versions all with different variations of damage. it would be hard to chose which one to send. Be interested to see if you could find out what went wrong with it, but as i said, i really don't trust...

Thanks for the advice, sadly, after deletion, the waters still there , and so are the artifacts that are making the route unstable. Quite honestly, even if i could fix this, I don't think I'd ever trust the stability of this terrain mesh enough to continue with it. Better to lose two months work...

I did that John, the extension filled with water that could not be adjusted, under the water the terrain appeared fine, above , it still had the same issues .... I explained it in a post about 4 days ago, on this thread..

indeed, but just a summary of any aberrations that were occurring would be so helpful. Extended database rebuilds can only do so much, I'd rebuilt the database about four times on one week due to to texel issues I'd been having but clearly whatever issue the new extension had wasn't fixed. It...

yes, I often have a look at the whole route to see if anything untoward has occurred. looking just at the map only is not sufficient , as sometimes problems lurk beneath. it would be very helpful if there was some sort of diagnostic tool that could monitor health of a route, but I know its...

I've had a major issue with a route and to cut things short, I've lost several months worth of work due to texture corruption , i need to start again with a DEM as it will save me weeks of work. Its from Gunnison Colorado to Crested butte including the Baldwin , Floresta and Anthracite mine...

Ive opened the old version of the route into 2022 and all the performance issues i had with the new version have gone, but of course, so has three months of work, i think something in the DEM that was given me was suspect, as the transdem colors never displayed correctly, so i will just have to...

all that achieved was the end of the route ( much of which is below sea level due to the original dem being lowered so much) , is now an inland sea and i cant adjust the water height. However on the plus side the terrain looks ok under the water. Any ideas of how i can get the water to lower ...

I'll give it a try, what texture would you recommend to use for the single board , just the grid?

what is strange is that i have freshly downloaded ALL the textures from the DLS so presumably the new ones would have overridden the old, unless the textures on the DLS contain corruption and if i attempt any texture replacement it simply removes the original texture and leaves more blank space.

I opened a more recent verison of the route, just after i did another RD Extended, at first, it appeared ok, I even thought it had possibly fixed the issue then, large sections of rendered route just disappeared, but its not consistent,, its all over the place, and as i move around other...

The problem gets WORSE, if i paint any texture over existing textures the existing texture disappears.Doesn't matter what texture it is either. Bulk replacements do the same thing Also, all the assets are freshly downloaded from the DLS, as I wanted to start all over with a new clean database so...

I am wondering of the original DEM is the isue, Ive been trying various versions of the route in SP5 , so far i have to go back to mid May, the DEM extension to Gunnison displays correctly in the latest version so it would appear not to be the transdem textures. . After that things get rather...
