using a session from a Content manager download

[buttmunch]

I've just downloaded the 'Fort William to Mallaig session and checked that I have all thwe assets and that the session is committed and yet I still cannot find it when I start up a driver session.......obviously I'm doing something wrong but I don't know what........grrrrrrrrr

Greetings buttmunch,

I dont know the route personally but it is likely that there are no trains on the route as it stands, Go into surveyor and add a loco or 2.


Hope this helps,
Lenny

Are you sure you have got all the dependencies as my download reports 1 asset missing and that appears to be the route which CM can't find.

yup, there are locos in the download, but I note Franks comment and will go back and check...........It'll be a real shame if it doesn't work...I've travelled that route and even stayed in Corpach a couple of times.......

the story so far is : As was said earlier, there is no route associated with this session so I went in search of the route and found 'Mallaig extension 2' by 'vern' <kuid:30024:100512> but it has a faulty dependancy
'Big church' <kuid:141830:290723> which is missing all kinds of stuff....SO, thats easy thinks I, I'll change the kuid in the config file to a church that DOES work, then all I have to do is download it and the route should work........ It appears however that when I fell out of the stupid tree, I hit every branch on the way down, cos the route still keeps asking for the original kuid even though its no longer in the config file.....should I just give up the idea or is there a reasonably simple way around this?

Greetings again buttmunch,

If when you go to load the map you get the message "Missing dependencies" or something similar, go into the map using Surveyor and you can use the menu item "Delete Missing Assets" from the map and resave it.

Hope this helps,

Finally got the route loaded in surveryor so I don't really need the session any more, I can make my own now............thanks for all your help guys
