TRS 22PE C&O Hinton Division missing Sessions, other paid DLC missing

Oh so the file in the error above exists, here's the file properties, is this file supposed to be a consistent size or will it vary over time? Maybe someone could please check their version of this file:

I'll give you one last piece of advice. If the game and the DLС folder are located on the system partition "C", then various miracles can happen with the files.
Because the system partition always has an increased level of protection compared to other non-system partitions.
Create "Game" folder on disk "D" and copy everything to it.

Forgive me but there's a saying: "This is computer science, not computer magic."

So please understand I mean no disrespect, but where did you get that idea?
I did try to Google the idea and came up dry.

In my dev experience sort of the opposite is true, for example MS Visual Studio (not VS Code) 202x doesn't like my project files in C:\someDirAtTheTopLevel
I've had to maintain projects somewhere in my ~ home directory in Windows for them to work (and debug) properly.

And honestly if there's any truth to what you're saying, N3V should suggest that the content be installed on a second drive if it detects one during the install.
N3V didn't make that recommendation in our support conversation 🤷‍♂.
I'm gonna guess you might be older and more experienced than me, but at 56 I've been using computers and developing systems a long time, I started at age 11 with Apple IIs
 
Sorry the gender sign came out of nowhere! Wasn't me typing it in, I think I clicked the wrong "shrug" icon when i hit Windows-Key-. to bring up the emoji

I am trying your solutions, regardless of what I said above forgot to say that

the files copied over and I'm redownloading the route now thanks waiting for an error or success
 
And I have the exact same thing:

Then I closed everything down, removed the sc276 directory, relaunched Trainz and tried a fresh download of the route.

And I get a similar error after a few minutes of progress, different file is bad.

I sent that file into N3V support.

more info, the data is being served off bunnyinfra.net I've gone into this before.
It's not AWS.
It's some Eastern European outfit named CDN77 https://www.who-hosts-this.com/?s=185.93.1.251

So I don't know, I still don't think this is a network issue, but the routes are not being served off AWS any longer.
@oldman777 when did you download the route? Maybe the content server is just serving up a corrupted file?

Unless anyone has more ideas I'll see what N3V has to say tomorrow I hope.

And can someone answer the question, is this really a payware issue per the payware error I posted above?

Not sure if this helps.. I have C&O loaded w/5 sessions that all run. No file that is rragh** or f5x**. There are 14-sc276 folders total.. 2-sc276, 4-276d vers, 6-276f vers and 2-sc276s vers. Again all are folders. In CM I am showing <kuid:453099:100426:7> and <kuid:453099:100037:20 under Routes and Sessions Search. One is Route and the other is for MPS

I deleted and downloaded the route again now, especially for you.
The same 7 folders were downloaded, with 1654 files and 186 folders 2.04 GB inside. All checksums are the same as before:

ok thanks @oldman777 the only difference I suspect, are you running the Steam version? Or the direct from the store version?

I'm on Steam TRS 2022PE Build 126295

If this was a network error on my end, or antivirus:
-- there would be a dialog from Windows Security, and it would show in Protection History
-- I'm not running any other security, except that I do have a Orange Pi with a firewall running between Google Fiber's wall jack and my own router.
-- but the firewall would block a port or open it, not randomly pick on cdp files
-- and if it was a network glitch it would be working after trying it this many times

I suppose I can go bypass the Orange Pi setup and see if it makes a difference.

And I'll post whatever N3V says tomorrow if they respond tomorrow hopefully.

Thanks again all.
 
If I download the C&O Route into .cdp it shows 195,019,336 bytes or 195MB

I have the same version of the game from Steam, but it doesn't matter. All add-ons are downloaded from the N3V servers, regardless of where the game is purchased.
Only the basic, installation version of the game differs in several files.
I also compared C&O Route files downloaded via TS22 and TS19, it's all identical.

EDIT: I don't have an antivirus, Defender is disabled, and all other system protection is disabled too. Therefore, there is no problem. :)

The Trainz store version of Trainz and the Steam version could easily have different bugs, I assume the Steam version has to be a different executable altogether because of the need to hook into the Steam launcher.

So as I have referenced here I am assuming that N3V/Auran is using some hopefully modern code deployment system a.k.a. DevOps. Let's hope they're not manually committing and manually testing and such.

Anyways in that kind of modern dev env, there's virtually certainly differences between the two versions.

Two different codebases, anything is possible see Crowdstrike or is it too soon to make that joke LOL.
 
and I'm implying that the code downloading the software might have something to do with reassembling it on my end.

Who knows if N3V has tried to implement their own error correction on top of TCP/IP, for example.

What you specified is only the route file, and when you click Install route in the store, it's the route, sessions and all dependencies and the size is already 2GB. He can only download 200MB of 2GB due to connection errors.
The route versions below TC19 consist of several folders with the same number and different endings in the name. Versions of routes TS19 and higher contain one large .tzarc file:

 
I was able to get all those directories installed, but there's still a missing asset, I called this out much earlier in the conversation.

I suspect @oldman777 has this asset because even when the route installs properly, I still show a missing Payware asset.

I'll bet money it's not a network error. I checked the traffic with Wireshark, didn't find any problems with the N3V download server.

On my VM on a VPN I can find it on the Russian site so I know it exists out there.

See, if you look there's always been this missing asset, along with the file errors.

So my guess, I'm still seeing missing assets because part of the C&O route was not included, I'm missing <kuid2:453099:100037:20> C&O Hinton Division
 
There are some recnt updates to various DLC dependencies. Make sure you download everything that's available to you and all the updates for anything you have installed. I check for updates daily for both DLC and non-DLC assets. I have seen unknown missing dependencies in the past for DLC routes and other assets that are impossible to find and by updating the out-of-date assets, this solved the missing dependencies.

My filter for this is set up as follows:

For non-DLC assets:

Installed - True
Out of date - True
Packaged - False

For DLC assets:

Installed - True
Out of date - True
Packaged - True

For DLC assets you need to select, right-click and choose View asset versions. This will open a new window showing anything that's available for download. DLS assets should download by right-clicking on the assets and then choosing download.

Once installed, check for obsolete assets to remove any obsolete DLS assets you have installed. You might want to set up a custom filter for that too.

Installed - True
Obsolete - True
Packaged - False.

You can't remove packaged obsolete assets because they are in those package files.

You did everything wrong. I explain in detail:

First of all, unzip my archive anywhere and check the checksums and also check the checksums after copying all the folders to the desired directory.

How exactly should everything be done:

You need to create Game folder on disk D and copy the entire folder from disk C, I have it called - TRS2022_Content.
The contents of this folder is:



Then copy the contents of my archive to the packages subfolder, highlighted in blue.

Then, in the Launcher - Settings - Installation, specify the path to this folder. In your case, it will be: D:\Games\TRS2022_Content



After that, restart the Launcher and start database recovery.
