moving to new computer

[geoffhs]

Hi

I am moving Trainz (TS12) to a new computer. When I install Trainz, I will be back to where I was two years ago when I bought it - how do I move all the content I have downloaded over the past 2 years? I see there is a "user data" folder in the Trainz instalation on the old computer. Can I make a copy of that and then copy it to the new computer? Or should I use content manager to import it to the new computer?

Thanks

Geoff

You can do what you said regarding the UserData folder; it is also the recommended method. Just make sure that the version on the new computer is patched to the same build number as the old one.

Once it is, you can then copy the UserData folder back, then open Content Manager and do an Extended Database Repair and it will detect the new content and everything should be as it was.

Kieran.
