New versions of Trainz don't normally get on to my PC for a good long while, until after the dust has settled and the new version is no longer a beta in disguise. But with TRS22 I decided to take an early plunge just to get at Surveyor 2.0. I duly coughed up the annual fee and was given access to the Trainz Plus TRS22 download page, which had the options to either download the full installer or to download on line via a smaller installer. I chose the former, downloading the multi-Gb file without problem. The installer worked to put TRS22 into a newly-prepared folder, as did the long-winded download of my paid for content and a load of stuff from the DLS to go with Dearnby & District routes I imported, so I could see what Surveyor 2.0 could do with them.
However ....
When I went for a play with a Dearnby route in TRS22, I found myself having access to only the "classic" Surveyor, not Surveyor 2.0. Eventually it dawned on me that I had the retail version of TRS22, not the Trainz Plus version. That is, I had Build 117655.
The page I downloaded from is now no longer available, but I know that this page had the Build number for the Surveyor 2.0 version of TRS22 shown against both sorts of installation files, not Build 117655. Now that this installer has given me and installed Build 117655 in error, I can no longer access the download page with the Surveyor 2.0 Build version, so can't even start again. And anyway, that page appears to have given me the installer for Build 117655 (retail version) of TRS22 in error so presumably it would only do so again!
I've raised a Help Desk ticket but responses to these are glacially slow, so I'm wondering if anyone can tell me how I can get rid of Build 117655 and obtain the Surveyor 2.0 Build of TRS22 that I've actually rented? Thanks in anticipation for any advice you can give.
Lataxe, chewin' a wasp.
