DLS message: "No valid assets found."

[ray_whiley]

I recently uploaded 4 items of rolling stock, one detailed station, and three scenic items using using Content Dispatcher (TRS2004). Some waited a week in the unprocessed area, some a few days. Now most have been rejected on the grounds that "no valid assets were found" - all but one item of rolling stock which seems to have been launched into outer space! I can't understand how there can be no valid asset in a CDP file when the first task in creating one is to choose from a list of custom assets (mine only). Incidentally, all work on my computer in TRS2004, or I would not have uploaded.

I just got the same error on an old thing I was updating, it was the lack of a thumbnail.

Yo whitpass:

Are you saying after adding the thumbnail it went thru?

Thanks John - I had in fact already found the thread you mentioned and carried out checks of the assets in question using Trainz Objectz. KUID formats are OK with no duplicates, there's nothing missing from any of the assets' folders, and they all work fine. The only thing lacking is a thumbnail but as I have already successfully uploaded 340 assets (including 21 classified as rolling stock and 171 as buildings) to the DLS with no thumbnails and no problems I don't think this can be the cause. Still, it's worth trying this although I understand other uploaders have had the same problem. I'll keep persevering!

I have close to 3500 items on th DLS with nary a thumbnail. Do you suppose Auran has decided to reject items without thumbnails without telling us (as usual)?

Mine has a thumbnail and is merely a version update so I think it's something else on Auran's side.
