Replacing missing tracks

[spikesignal]

Is there any ways to replace this missing track with another track, as the "missing track" is not selectable, i can't use the "replace assets" tool?

Can someone help me in this? I dont want to re-lay the track. (big route)

Question: Are you sure the asset is actually a track spline? Have you tried selecting it in the Objects/Spline tab?

It's a long shot, i know, but worth a try, if nothing else.

Tested if it would be spline. It wasn't.

*EDIT*

Checked it in CMP, it's classified as track asset.

Moin,

No there you can´t use the replacing tool.
The reason are simple, because you and also the Sim not know which track are is the missed, you can´t choose it for the entry what is to replaced.

(Hope i could give you the info understandable...)

Hmm, have you tried opening the route with the CMP and change the kuid number of the missing track for an existing track kuid number?

Why the "missing track asset" can't be replaced to another track with the asset replacing tool? That's what i don't understand...

Jananton, there are more than 1 missing asset on that route...

 

[DonZer63]

In the replacement tool you have to put in the asset that is actual there and that what should be new.
With missing splines or tracks you can only put in the name of the new one.

The replacement tool can only be using for changing for existings assets, not for missings.

Then why the missing track ASSET can't be SELECTABLE so i could change it?! It would make things so much easier...

Track is missing from database

The double dashed lines shown in your picture are usually the result of a spline that is missing or a broken dependency. Check in Content Manager for missing or broken dependencies in your route, download or repair as necesary and the track should then show up.

Hope this helps.

Spike, here, wants to know if you can replace the track that the missing track gets replaced with (Edit: It is an asset in CMP, kuid:523:1124), and explain why it can/cannot be replaced.

Because then all that missing splines, whether track or spline are one Asset that you can replace.

I don´t want see your route after doing so, maybe your trains then driving on the road?

The best way will be what dnevans8 say, search the dependencies that are needed...

Hold on, then cars wouldn't drive, only trains, because that asset is a track type, not a spinle type.

Spike wants to know why you can't replace kuid:523:1124 (the track the missing track gets replaced with) can't be replaced on the route with an ordinairy track piece, and not one that's dashed.

 

[DonZer63]

No,

Both types are displayed as the same, as a track. Try to delete a missing spline as a road or fence if you know that it is a road or fence - you can´t because it is displayed as a track and can only be removed in track mode.

Spike, here wants to replace that track with another track type, but (edit: I think that) he can't seem to pick the track-type with the pick tool, can you explain this?

Cannot replace <kuid:523:1124>

<Kuid:523:1124> is an Auran asset that Trainz is probably programmed to use when there is a missing spline to help users see what is missing and where it goes. It is probably like some of the speed trees which also are not visible in the surveyor list and, therefore, cannot be picked up and replaced.

I still think your best option is to check the route in Content Manager and check for the missing or faulty dependencies and correct or download the asset.

I can't find the track in

search. I would like to replace it in-game using the replace asset tool, because then i could see what i am doing.

What is the missing Kuid?

Will you please post the missing kuid then perhaps others can help find the missing track.

The route has more missing assets than just one...

It may not be much of help, but there was already a thread on this (link to thread) in which I already suggested a solution to Auran (to make the "Missing Spline" selectable, but you can read the rest in the linked thread).

I also created a ticket at the Helpdesk on 23.Jan.2010 (If somebody from Auran reads this, its ID is "AJZ-808134") but it has been closed in the meantime without a solution.

So instead of having to hunt down all missing KUIDs all over the Internet to be able to change the missing track, I'm relying on Auran to eventually implement my fix suggestion at some time.
Perhaps this is a good chance to get some more people to join my cause so all will benefit.
At last it's an easy fix, doesn't require lots of changes and best of all I already successfully tested it for them.

I agree with this.
