Merge a TS12 route with a TS10 one?

[DieselDesires]

Hi all,

The other day, I borrowed a copy of TS12 from a friend, just to try a theory out.

I installed it and went straight to work deleting everything from just north of York on the ECML all the way down to Kings Cross.

The purpose was to see if I could merge the new section up to Newcastle to my existing route.

Anyway, after a couple of days clicking away, I ended up with just the section I wanted. I copied it out from TS12 as a CMP file and then put it into my CMP for TS10. Now needless to say it didn't work, is there anybody that can maybe explain WHY it didn't work?

I was under the assumption that when you create a CMP, all dependancies that are needed are packed. (If they are installed)

I have a feeling that this is probably against the T&C's of the game, but humour me - can it be done?

Ta.

Where to start?

Trainz end user license is not transferable, so I think you just 'fessed up to a crime

Saving a route to cdp (which I assume is what you mean by cmp) saves the route only. No other assets are - or ever were - saved with it. You would need to pack dependencies separately.

If you copied the route out of TS2012 check the trainzbuild tag - probably 3.5 which won't load into TS2010...

Thanks. Yes I did mean CDP.

Ha ha, yes I suppose I did just confess lol.

My friend purchased TS12 after seeing my TS10, but seeing as I have only had my version since February, I wasn't prepared to shell out again just to prove myself right or wrong.

I'm happy with my TS10 though, as I have done lots of work on it to get it just right for me.

Now IF there was a way to transfer my schedules and driver setups etc.... (DEVELOPERS ARE YOU LISTENING?)

Just to clarify for those more serious about my "Crime", TS12 has now been removed from my system.

Just a note to others thinking the same, it did bugger my install up with trying to transfer content etc but as I have a daily backup of my game folder it didn't matter to me.
