Railworks corrupted, again

Well, it happened again.

Just three weeks after a complete re-install of Railworks, I was editing the NSAND route and RW froze up. No SBHH, just stopped responding. I killed the process with task manager.

Then, then after rebooting RW, the route wont load. It gets through the loading screen, and freezes. SBHH error. So, I completely removed the route with the package manger and reinstalled the whole thing. Still wont load. This is the same problem I had with the C&O route.

I have no idea what is going on, but its time to take yet another long break from this program.

Update: I fixed it. What I did is manually delete all the route folders, and then "remove" it via the package manager. Then, re-install. For some reason, it seems the package manager misses things sometimes when it is allowed to remove/update files.

Even the file verify doesn't seem to catch all the missing files at time. I have had to run that procedure several times in a row until I get zero files missing, yet it still misses files. Yeah, Package Manager seems a lot different in RW3. Having to do that "Refresh" thing each time you want to use it. Oh, well.

I had a similar problem a while back on a custom route. Seems I had a problem with some piece of rolling stock. Instead of reloading, I deleted the rolling stock assets that had been placed in that particular route. Went back to it and it loaded fine and has been ever since. Don't know which piece (if any) was the culprit but the problem has not re-occurred.

Have you guys reported that to support? We need to remember to report stuff to them so they can fix it.

Thanks
