Neue Version RW-Tools

Neue Version 6.0.37 (23.03.2015):

v6.0.37 - Quite a lot of changes this time:

1. Changed the option to Fix Provider/Product folders so that it displays a list of sub-folders which are not in the user's Assets folder, rather than showing a separate message for each missing folder.
2. It has been pointed out that the various options which display thumbnails of locos default to the thumbnail in 'LocoInformation\image.png' if it exists, and if not looks in the RW_Tools\Thumbnails folder. This is normally OK, however a number of loco authors have placed several loco models in a single 'Engine' folder and in this case there is only one 'image.png' file to cover them all. I have therefore reversed this process so that RW_Tools looks initially in the Thumbnails folder for a suitable picture before reverting to image.png. Ron Smith in Canada is working on producing some more loco thumbnails.
3. Fixes have been made to the option to save the size of the editor form which was often being maximised when a .bin file was viewed.
4. Changes have been made to the option to Check QD Consists and Fragments which now allows users to edit existing QD Consists (e.g. to add additional routes which AI consists can run on etc) - See the enclosed 'QDConsistEditor.pdf' file.
5. A bug in the Scenarios/Build QD Consists or Fragments option has been fixed.

NOTE: THE ABOVE CHANGES REQUIRE NEW TEMPLATE/MODIFIED TEMPLATE FILES, MAKE SURE YOU COPY THOSE IN
THIS ARCHIVE INTO YOUR EXISTING TEMPLATES FOLDER.

Neue Version 6.0.38 (25.03.2015):

v6.0.38 - Fixed a bug in the above QD Consist Editor whereby an error message appeared whether you had set Consist is Drivable to eTrue or eFalse.
5. A bug in the Scenarios/Build QD Consists or Fragments option has been fixed.

Neue Version 6.0.40 (27.03.2015(:

v6.0.40 - The above QD Consist Editor could not handle consists without a Valid Routes entry and which used the empty tag <ValidBuildAndDriveRoutes/> - This has been fixed.
A new option has been added to the Check QD Consists and Fragments screen - 'List All QD Consists' just click this button to see a complete list of all your QD Consists in a spreadsheet like Format with full details of every consist. It can be sorted on any column by clicking the column header. This list can be saved in either .xls or .csv format for import into Excel or other similar spreadsheets.

Neue Version 6.0.41 (28.03.2015):

v6.0.41 - Fixed following bugs:
Check QD Consists - Was looking for 'PreLoad' and did not find 'Preload'
Consist Editor - Listed files missing if there were '&' or accented letters in the filename.
Some improvements to the option to list all QD Consists and new QDConsistEditor.pdf file included.

Neue Version 6.0.44 (31.03.2015):

v6.0.44 - RW_Tools has always defaulted to 'Don't change numbers when swapping stock', however this does not suit everyone, so I have added an option to the Options menu which allows users to select either 'Don't change numbers when swapping stock' or 'Change numbers when swapping stock' as their Default setting. When you first install the program it will be set to 'Don't change numbers when swapping stock' and if you are happy with that setting, do nothing. If you change it, then it will default to your new setting. You can still change it on a case by case basis as required.

Neue Version 6.0.45 (01.04.2015):

v6.0.45 - It has been pointed out to me that when running the 'Check Route' option, if a list of missing items appears, the user must click the 'Remove Duplicates' button before items can be substituted or removed otherwise they receive an error message. I have changed the program so that if 'Remove Duplicates' has not been pressed, a message appears telling you that you must do so.

Neue Version 6.0.46 (26.04.2015):

v6.0.46 - When editing consists, the option to 'Delete Consist' will only delete one consist correctly, you are now advised that you have already deleted one consist, and must save the scenario before editing it again to delete a second consist. Sorry but to get around this, a considerable rewrite of the whole option would be necessary and could possibly cause more bugs.
In the various list screens, such as lists of missing assets/rolling-stock etc, it is now possible to right click on any item in the first column to send it to the clipboard. Useful if you wish to do a search for a missing loco on Google etc. Only one item can be saved to the clipboard at a time as each one will overwrite the previous one.

Neue Version 6.0.48 (27.04.2015):

v6.0.48 - Fixed bug in the QD Consist builder whereby the first item in the bottom list did not appear in the top window when double-clicked, making it impossible to select for use.

Neue Version 6.0.49 (04.05.2015):

v6.0.49 - Added an option to the Consist Builder - Files/Select Index File - this allows users to set up a short index file of stock used in their route, rather than setting up a giant index of all installed stock. Just select the stock in the Edit Assets screen and save to a .csv file with an appropriate Name.

Neue Version 6.0.52 (01.06.2015):

v6.0.52 - Changed the options to list rolling stock in selected scenarios and in all scenarios to indicate either the scenario name or the route name in printed output. Fixed the consist list in the Scenario Editor which was not always displaying full lines of text. Fixed bug in Scenario Editor whereby if you selected a loco from the 'Index File', it was placed in the scenario with a .bin suffix instead of .xml, causing the Scenario to fail.

Neue Version 6.0.53 (09.07.2015):

v6.0.53 - New French language file from Vincent Meeur - received with many thanks. Fixed a bug in the Scenario Editor which would claim file path's including apostrophes were invalid if you scrolled through the consist list using the up/down keys.

Neue Version 6.0.54 (22.07.2015):

v6.0.54 - In the Edit Assets screen, editing the sounds now deletes the Blueprints.pak file after changes are made. Also warns you to check that Kuju is ticked as some sound changes can add Kuju as Provider/Product to some locos.

Neue Version 6.0.56 (30.07.2015):

v6.0.56 - Fixed a bug in the Route Building Tools/Clone Route which could fail if the original route Name was much longer than the new name. Also please note that this option can't clone routes where the route name starts with a 'space' character.

Neue Version 6.0.59 (17.09.2015):

v6.0.59 - Changed the report page on 'List Stock used by all scenarios' so that the option 'Check selected stock for missing files' only lists stock where files are actually missing, rather than listing every stock item as being 'Checked' when there is nothing wrong with it. A number of other small bugs have been fixed.

Neue Version 6.0.60 (02.10.2015):

v6.0.60 - Fixed problem in the 'Work Order' screen which would fail if the words 'Free Roam' appeared in the ScenarioProperties.xml file, even if it was not a Free Roam scenario. Changed all references from TS2015 to TS2016 - You must copy over the new language files for this to work.

Neue Version 6.0.64 (13.10.2015):

v6.0.63 - While looking at the code in the 'Swap rolling stock' area in RW_Tools I discovered that when a loco is swapped with one in a RSC or DTG scenario, they have stopped using the earlier <RBlueprintSetPreload option and now use a new <RequiredSet option which just points to the assets package for the route. So when adding new locos to a route with RW_Tools it no longer ticks the green boxes for Provider/Product in the Scenario automatically. I have changed the code to fix this and add the ticks as before.

Neue Version 6.0.67 (01.11.2015):

v6.0.67 - Added new option to the Scenario Editor screen 'Make Selected Career Scenarios Standard' so you just need to select all the RED scenarios in a route and click this button to make them all 'Standard' if that is how you like to play the game. It is probably best to do this on a cloned version of the route. Adding this option means that the 'Saved Copies of Selected Scenario' box is no longer filled automatically when you select a scenario, a new button has been added to populate this box if required.

Neue Version 6.0.69 (05.11.2015):

v6.0.69 - Fixed bug in the option to substitute scenery items for missing items. Fixed bug in the option under Check Routes/List Items used by scenarios/Check selected stock for missing files - This reported files missing if they contained non-alphanumeric characters such as '&' or some European language letters.

A new pack of Thumbnails named Thumbnails7.zip is on my site now which covers most railcars by GreatNorthern - just copy all the .jpg files in this archive into your RW_Tools\Thumbnails folder. Thanks once again to Ron Smith for all his work producing these pictures.

Neue Version 6.0.70 (10.11.2015):

v6.0.70 - Fixed bug in the Scenario Editor whereby the option to 'Delete Selected Scenario(s)' only deleted the first one selected. It now works correctly.

Neue Version 6.0.72 (15.11.2015):

v6.0.72 - Fixed a bug when replacing missing items in a route the procedure was case sensitive, so sometimes it had to be run twice to ensure all items were replaced. (This would only have happened if the names of Assets folders had been manually altered by the user). Fixed a bug in 'Check Route' where after checking one route the 'Check Route' button was greyed out under some circumstances and thus the user had to exit/rerun the option before a second route could be checked.
