IMPORTANT - Discard Saved Sessions in Trainz Plus Beta 105624 & 105458

Trainz Plus - enjoy Trainz from just 20 cents a da
The two Trainz Plus beta builds released on Jan 24th (build 105458) and Jan 31st (build 105624) included a bug that caused trains to be derailed on loading the session. (Builds 105100 and 105096 are not affected).

We have identified the cause which relates to a change in train physics save data. It also means that any sessions saved in either of those two builds will be broken by the required fix (which will be included in the new build we will be releasing this week).


To clarify further, if you have NOT saved a session in build 105458 or 105624, then you don't need to do anything.


If you HAVE saved a session in build 105458 or 105624, then you need to delete that session (or it will not load correctly in the new build).

This issue affects all rolling stock placed on tracks in either build.


Sessions saved prior to Jan 24 are not affected. So while they do appear broken right now in the current build, they will load correctly in the next build.

If you have attempted to fix a "broken" session and saved it and don't have a backup, then you will need to redo the repair in the next build.

It is worth mentioning again here that any work done in a beta build should be considered "Throw away".
 
Is there an easy to revert to 500100?

I hope!!

Most people create a copy of their install and patch the copy, meaning you can switch back to your old version easily.

If you don't have a backup, then install the latest official release version from your MyTrainz account.

I know things can get frustrating from time to time. We messed up with this release by not following our standard release plan. A new build will be out this week.
