Moving trainz from one hard drive from another

[coreycoen12345]

So I need some help. I ran out of hard drive space so I decided to move my N3V games folder to another hard drive. I had over 900 gigs worth of content and when I go to go into the game and the content manager, it’s wiped clean like it’s the basic game is there anyway that I can set the folder or something to recognize the content was in there because when I moved it, it’s still showing 900 gigs for the folder, but nothing in the game.

Trainz actually uses two locations on your hard drive (or drives) - one for the program code and another, the Local Data Folder, is for all your installed data (routes, assets, etc).

Your first choice would be to move the Local Data Folder. Instructions for moving this can be found as described by John above.

A more detailed set of instructions can be found on the Trainz Wiki at How_to_Move_Your_User_Data_Folder.

You cannot simply move the folder to another location using File Explorer as Trainz will not know where to find it.

I had already moved that folder from OneDrive to another. It was the entire M3 V games and I cannot find the drive or the folders.

if it says something like app data the default then you need to show hidden folders before looking for it.
