More on Content Manager
Now for the "blue dot (ver 2.9)."
Before we go any Further, look at the "dependices" of one of the next content item which is Fully Error Free. Write down the "names" of the dependices so that you can choose these to correct the faulty one.
Go to the item that needs correcting by left click on it and the right click. This will bring up the "menu" and left click on the words "Errors and warnings." A new small window will open and a list of "red" errors will be shown. Leave this window open and again right click on the item and this time left click on "Edit," a scond list will be shown and this time pick "Open in Content Plus."
Is there a Yellow Jigsaw piece with a "?" in it or a Red Jigsaw piece or even a red "!." The means that there is/are missing dependances, next means that the content is trying to use other Faulty dependances and the red "!" is the same as above. Right click on the content item to bring up the menu and left click on the "View Dependances" and check what is at faulty and note it down. Normaly missing or interiors, hornsound, enginesound and bogies, now to find which ones. Click on "close" and right click again on the content item. Go to "Edit" and Content Creation Plus, left click on it.
A new window will open which is called "Traincar," this is the Front Page, look at the left hand side panel. This is were all the different "bits" of the item will be shown in a "Tree" format.
In the Traincar panel you will see a number of "tags," the first six or so should be ok, but then the fun starts! There should not be any <kuid:number> showing in the first grey box right of the tag, as it should be in the next white boxes! If this is so it needs correcting, or if not the fault lays elsewhere. You must remember that each time you correct an item kuid, you need to also correct it in the kuid-table locate at the bottom of the "tree."
In the left-hand panel, the word Traincar will be highlighted, there is also a small "+" next to it, left click on it and most of the tree will open. Any other "+" means that there is more content to open. You will need to look in all of them to find the faulty item/s before you can finish. Now depending on how many of the content items you have downloaded and the speed of you computer, this next bit may take sometime.
Look along the "tag" line and next to the grey box you will see two buttons "..." and "C". Left click on the "..." button a window will open with all the listed items in that catagory that you have downloaded under its heading. This may were well take sometime to open so be very patient it will open and then take sometime look through it.
Under the "heading" is a box for you to search for the item you are looking for, by putting something in here will shortern the list. Again this may take time, by patient and let it do its work for you. Once you have seen the item you wish to use, left click on the name and left click on the "Select" button at the bottom of the window. You must do this in the "kuid-table" before moving on to the next item. If not it will still show an error after you have "committed" the corrections.
When all the corrections have been done, left click on "File" and "Save", then "File" and "Exit". Now left click on the content item to highlight it again and the hit the "Ctrl plus M" keys to "commit the corrections you have made. If all is well the Yellow Jigsaw will change to a Yellow "!", meaning that the item is ready for use.
If all else fails, hit the "Ctrl plus R" keys will revert the item as if you had not done a thing to it. OR you can delete the item and download it again and start the corrections again.
Red Jigsaw, you need to do a search on the faulty content items first and carry out the corrections on it/them first and comeback to the main one afterwards, by doing this it may have been corrected too.
Content to get use to this correction is Catagory>Train Vehicle and type in 50ft, watch what comes up and if some need down loading do that. These are simple corrections to carry out. Also, try the 40ft/4bay content items too, a few here a bit more tricky but only one or a few corrections needed.
I hope this helps members find the content that they are longing/looking for.
