New PC. How to best move the Railworks installation?

Kim_olesen1 · 21. Dezember 2022

I’ve ordered a new pc (arriving 22. december). Since it would litterally take an enormous amount of time to install everything from new and then install the huge amount of freeware/mods, will this work: Install steam on the new pc. Point steam to the new d drive on the new pc. Then copy over my railworks folder from my latest backup.

Will this cause problems with third party addons? I am particularly thinking about RSSLO products not bought on Steam, since i’ve heard they have deep copyprotection scripts.

What are your experiences, many of you must have been in the same situation.

Yes, RSSLO will cause trouble here. I ended up re-installing all of them. For the rest this should by and large work, though.

Everything with a copyprotection must be reinstalled, e.g. ChrisTrains stuff, RSSLO and so on.

BlackHawk jpvdveer Would you recommend reinstallation of copyprotected stuff before or after i copy over my TS backup?

Was für einen Copyschutz
1. Du musst der neuen Registry mitteilen, wo sich Railworks befindet. Benutze dazu die Datei
https://support.justflight.com…-railworks-was-not-found-
Bitte genau lesen. Diesen Registry-Eintrag benötigt man für spätere Installationen.
2. Alle Keys aus C:/ProgrammFiles/ChrisTrains auf neuen PC übertragen
3. Datei C:/ProgrammFiles/Windows media player/Media Renderer/Morise.txt auf neuen PC übertragen

4. Datei C:/ProgrammFiles (X86)/Windows media player/Media Renderer/Morise.txt auf neuen PC übertragen

After, Any repaints then do not have to be installed again, some may. you need to test after the installation is finished.

Don't discuss with Hinterwaeldler, he knows everything better.

But to your Question: after moving TS.

Points 1 and 2 are correct!

Point 3 and 4 I don't know what this has to do with TS.

1 and 2 are not correct for copyprotected things special from RSSLO.

For RSSLO I know these two files for the questionable "copy protection":

C:\ProgramFiles(x86)\Windows Media Player\Media Renderer\Morise.txt
C:\ProgramFiles(x86)\Windows Photo Viewer\en-US\INET98TEST.dll

Morise.txt is an empty file in my case.

Strange. I don’t have that one on my old system.

C:\ProgramFiles(x86)\Windows Media Player\Media Renderer\Morise.txt
C:\ProgramFiles(x86)\Windows Photo Viewer\en-US\INET98TEST.dll

This files exit not on my PC.

I have RSSLO Products sale.

I think the Protection is a Registery Entree (Hardware).

Install new on the new PC after Move copy Data.

It depends which addon.

Morise.txt was from the Südbahn route and INET98TEST.dll from the BR 612 DMU.
