Don't Uninstall TANE
- Thread starter davesnow
- Start date
Nothing will happen other than a What do you want me to do with this file box with the what application do you want to run it? That file contains the information for the binary uninstall.exe or whatever the .exe program is that uninstalls the program.
Not just this program. The problem, as I see it is that the crystal ball that they use is very cloudy. They and others have on occasion developed and published a road map of where they plan to go in the future BUT like all good plans, they rarely if ever survive tomorrow's reality.
You do today what works today without messing up yesterday as much as possible and perhaps prepare for tomorrow but since tomorrow is a moving target, getting that right is more luck than wisdom.

To move TANE into TRS19, I've done this from TRS19 to TRS22..
Copy and backup folders from TANE
Original
Packages
Local
Editing folder is optional if you have anything inside it..
Backups folder is also optional if anything is inside this folder.
I would compress all of these folders in a rar file, do not use zip. Best to use WinRAR to package all your backups first. Then you can extract them to your TRS19 folder
by default C:\Users\%username%\AppData\Local\N3V Games and inside the TRS19 folder

Glad you go it worked out. I'm too far into my current route to take chances on major setbacks. I've had too much go wrong before and losing so much time after getting the latest version of Trainz. I end up going backwards to repair so much and this has been devastating to me. Yes, it's worth it in the long run, I suppose but I'm not getting any younger, so I'm happy to stick with TANE , SP3
Do you mind repeating that ? I'm going to write it down and stick it on my refrigerator.
feel free but note the typo, the last AND should be THAN
That is interesting, could you re-direct build xxxxxxxxx from TRS19 to TRS22?To move TANE into TRS19, I've done this from TRS19 to TRS22..

This would be an ideal way to check if the TRS19 routes etc will be compatable with TRS22 without messing up the main installation - maybe....

Not entirely sure what you mean by 're-directing build xxxxxxxxx from TRS19 to TRS22'? If, you are referring to moving the 'Build-XXXXXXX' folder from TRS19 to TRS22, I would strongly recommend NOT doing this, under any circumstances. I'm guessing that it could cause some serious problems to your Trainz installation..
To answer your question, Yes. TRS19 routes does work well in TRS22! You could even make a TRS22 route compatible in TRS19/T:ANE, I'm not giving that secret away
You can do that. You duplicate the database first and point the fresh TRS22 installation to the old TRS19 database. A program restart will be required and a database repair will kick in.Not entirely sure what you mean by 're-directing build xxxxxxxxx from TRS19 to TRS22'?

I have done just that as I upgraded from all versions prior to TS12 then up to T: ANE --- >, TRS19 --- > Plus, TRS22 --- > Plus.
The disadvantage is you need to repair content that hasn't been updated yet. When I went from TS12 to T: ANE, I repaired close to 7,500 assets and deleted many more. The updates after that were pretty smooth since the older ones were weeded out and many have been repaired.

You should make CDP backups of your most important routes and stuff to a different drive in case your internal C drive fails and the data becomes inaccessible unless you pay big money to a data recovery company. Better safe than sorry. Also, sometimes external sites close and content becomes vaporware. Dave you make good buildings including the hotels and motels. Is it worth upgrading from 2019 to 22 platinum (non Plus subscription) or are there only minor differences? You do get Surveyor 2.0 though with Platinum and has some features which I wanted for a long time like deleting more than one baseboard at a time.
