Faulty assets question.

[BeefChungus]

I have several assets and they work, my father has the same ones, yet his say faulty? I think it might be corrupted files due to a crash as the Kickstarter County 2 (TRS22) says its files are also faulty. Any ideas on how to fix? Should he uninstall and reinstall the program and the assets?

Assuming that you both have exactly the same version (i.e. the same build number) of Trainz then my sequence of steps would be:-

1. select the faulty assets in Content Manager, open their popup menu (right mouse click) and select View Errors and Warnings. If the list of errors is empty then restart Trainz. Miraculously that sometimes works but if not then...
2. select the faulty assets in Content Manager, open their popup menu (right mouse click) and select Revert to Original then restart Trainz. If that has no effect then...
3. perform a DBR (DataBase Repair) - in Content Manager or from the Trainz Launcher open the Developer menu and select Rebuild Database. If that has no effect then an Extended DBR may be required but this can sometimes create more problems.
4. To perform an Extended DBR hold down the Ctrl key when selecting Rebuild Database.

Thanks, will give these a go.

He figured it out, there were some outdated couplers installed that needed to be deleted.
