HTML assets (TS2010 engineer's)

[llewelyn]

I'm sure this is a totally dumb noob question... I'm working on a scenario on the excellent Marias pass X route, and I'd like to have popup messages. Now, the scenarios which come with the route have these, and they use things from HTML asset <such-and-such>, when I look in the session rules for what causes the message. So, the question, where the heck are these HTML assets? Content manager gives no clue, neither does looking in the directories. The manual button on the launcher doesn't do anything, dunno why.

Clearly I need to make my own HTML asset file(s) with the messages I want to appear, so anyone give any clue as to where to even access the darned things? If I could look at an extant one, I could no doubt work out how it's done... also, is that Manual meant to work in TS2010, and if so, why doesn't mine?

User Pware did a brilliant tutorial a while back.

The thread is here.

Open Content Manager and set a filter on "Category = HTML asset".

To figure out how those darned things work, I took a tutorial session, looked up all the HTML assets related to that and took a dive into the session rules. That should explain to you how they work with just some minor trail and error.

Good luck.

thanks, I'll look into it.
