The reason I say this is because I had Trainz Plus beta build 123315 installed. When I started it up today it automatically asked me if I wanted to update. I said yes and it automatically installed Trainz Plus build 123794.Well, all I can say is that 123794 is showing on MyTrainz downloads as the "TRAINZ PLUS EDITION"
I'm not sure what is going on with your setup but both my beta build 123315 and my stable build 122411 asked if I wanted to update. My Stream on the stable build is set to Trainz Plus. The beta update was quick while the stable version took about 20 minutes to download, install and run a DBR.The reason I say this is because I had Trainz Plus beta build 123315 installed.

When I started up my Trainz Plus build 122411 there was no notice of an update. So, I checked for a Trainz update. The message I received is "No update for Trainz is available at the current time". My conclusion is that build 123794 is still a beta version.
As far as I know it is still in development.Does anyone even have DirectX 12 mode work normally? My game takes 10 minutes to load and then crashes.
If you have a subscription you need the Plus version which is 123794. You have the retail version which is 123801 for both TRS22 and TRS22 PEThat was relatively quick and easy. First backuped the existing 122418, you always do that, don't you? Started the update. After the 9.8 GB of installation data, there was a quick payload check and then a 5 minute install. Then after about an hour of DBR, I was ready to resume building my latest route.
First look in the route map, every seems fine. Now to find if there are any interesting things hiding.
It still says Trainz22PE, now at build 123801
Wow, that must have taken a lot of time. After a flawless update, I also have thousands of faulty assets with tons of missing dependencies. Are we getting another update to rectify this? I wonder! I do not want to do a complete re-install. As has happened several times in the past few years, was this update released too soon?I have yet to be able to test anything due to a messed-up database with lots of missing dependencies related to DLC. With a current backup in hand, I updated only to find my install was stuffed when I checked things the next day after letting the EDBR run all night. My heart sank deep into my stomach then dropped to the floor as I saw nearly 4000 missing dependencies mostly related to content that utilized DLC. I think this is a self-inflicted error due to me getting confused after the upgrade when the initial DBR did not occur. Even after updating the DLC manually, I still had missing dependencies but not quite as much.
After faffing and fiddling around and waiting way too much time, I've set up a new data-folder and did a fresh install 123794. After going through the long process of installing all the DLC, I have no missing DLC dependencies and now I can copy over the content-folders from my backup.
Hopefully I can use the new version before another is ready for download.
I think the update was released too soon and without notice and typically N3V released the update on a Friday so there's no one including Tony to provide feedback. This is very typical of their old ways and I'm not surprised that they'd fall back to them because that's the easy way out.Wow, that must have taken a lot of time.

I notice that you have been "trainzing" since 2003. I started in 2004. I still have all the dvd sets with the old versions on my bookshelf. We have come a long way, and like you, I am puzzled that their way of doing things have not evolved.I think the update was released too soon and without notice and typically N3V released the update on a Friday so there's no one including Tony to provide feedback.

The process has taken all day and probably a bit more and now my large 10.5 TB hard disk is highly fragmented and is still defragging now after running all night.
I hope your missing dependencies aren't a sign that what I've done is for naught. I'm hedging my bets that the fresh installation of all the DLC without missing dependencies may solve the problem.
I still have my boxes with the original CDs and DVDs on my bookshelf as well. Things sure have come a long way but are still sadly the same.I notice that you have been "trainzing" since 2003.

My experience of this update is a little different from those with missing dependencies and faulty assets. I do not see any of those but when I run a DBR or an EDBR I get a list of 57 "failed to download precached data for package xxx or scxxx", and the route all seem to open OK and all my sessions that I have checked work. Another issue I have seen is with the USA signal status being shown differently on the signal Red (stop 0) and on the track overlay showing yellow. Unfortunately the overlay is the correct status because trains can pass the signals. The only fix I have found is to install the sessions in TRS19 and save to cdp then import them to TRS22 SP3 when they work correctly.
May the Gods of Trainz protect us from premature and questionable updates.
Hi John,When you replaced the session and the signals worked, leads me to believe it's related to a caching issue
Report that as a bug using the Bug Report and not the helpdesk.Hi John,
I thought of that and moved both consists that were sitting at the faulted signals. No change, I spent a day trying to get the problem fixed within TRS22 SP3 including EDBR (several) and deleting the library cache files, all to no avail so it was in desperation that I resorted to importing the session to TRS19 where it worked perfectly despite the issue in TRS22 SP3. I did not have the problem before the update and I can repeat the problem 100% repeatable of two installs of TRS22 SP3 on separate windows PC's.

Yes, I indeed thought of deleting over 4000 assets, but thus far have not done it. But the issue for me is really the release of this update and the consequences, and no notifications about possible negative side effects. At least big pharma still does that with drugs!!!Speaking of faulty objects and missing dependencies after an upgrade, out of more than 702,000 items in my CM, 170 are having issues. So I had a closer look at what was actually dependant on them and found that most are not being used at all. They either came along for the ride in routes that have since been deleted or looked interesting at the time but then got ignored. So instead of spending a lot of time chasing around the Internet for obscure sites for missing pieces or trying to fix a poorly constructed config file or badly implemented materials, the Delete button solves the issue.
