Got a dumb question. How do I load saved games? I am making a new route. I saved about every 30 minutes and it comfirmed. Well next day im trying to open it and its no where to be found.

This has happened to a map I edited a few days ago. Can someone help me?

THANKS
 
!!!

???!!!!:eek: :eek: :confused:

very strange....i really dont know what wrong then.
Dave might know though...
we've had this happen before i just dont remeber what we did to fix it...

Wait you said that you saved it and its not there right? Well you saved it every 30 minutes and when you went to open it the next day it wasnt on the list. it just doesnt make sense to me. nothing fits.

let me think about it. someone else might know it though.

Sorry.:(

Like I said above im saving it. It even tells me if its ok to over write. I dont know. I havent updated my game I think I never have is there a fix on the updates?
 
Saved games/maps can only be accessed from Surveyor mode and NOT in the saved game list or in the Driver area. You're not really saving a game you're saving a MAP.
 
Maybe?

possible Vista yes.:D

What is you computer spec Tater? this might be a big help.
There is something called SP1 (Service Pack 1) that updates and fixes some problems with the game. If you would like DL it.

And that might be the problem thegrindre.:wave:
 
Thanks for the help so far

Laptop Specs

Vista :(

1.6ghz
1gb ram



When I save I save as. Name usually My Route or something

And saved it under Tidewater 2 cause I combined both of the tidewater freeform maps North and South. And 2 days ago I made a pretty neat homemade route spent 2 hrs and was about 1/4 way done for come back the next day and the hard work gone.

I can exit map and go play another and can still find it again later with the rest of the routes. But when I re-start game or computer it disappears from the list of routes. Now for example I play the game and save my progress. I can re-start the saved game is still there but not the route if I decide to edit it in any way.

Its a bug with 2006

This is a bug with 2006, your route will just by magic re appear one day, you can help this by deleating the following files,

assets.tdx and assets.bku
and the folder cache/internet

this will force 06 to re build the asset data base and sometimes fixes the problem

Do a fourm search as this has been covered a few times

Remember trainz may run on the Vista but it was NOT designed for it.






some times this works

Thanks. Only reason im not running it on my XP computer is cause it will probably run real sluggish. Has 512mb ram and 1.6 ghz ( I think ) processor running a old and crappy ATI 345 graphics card. I might try it but I doubt it will work.
 
Also thought about buying TRS2004 and use it. Seems alot of people favor it over 2006. Is there any large noticeable difference????

I can probably find it cheap locally or online.


EDIT.....I done a search for saved routes and on page 2 was a tread on the same subject as mine. They suggested run the game as administrator and another person said it fixed it so im gonna try that first.

.

Biggest change for me is the graphics engine on 06 seems to run a lot better, the only other changes is CMP and how 06 assest date base is diffrent - 06 should run ok on your XP PC.
