Series markers not showing up

Unread postby gwgardner » Fri Nov 29, 2013 6:13 pm

I built the Cimarron Pacific a couple of years ago, using series markers to lay track. Now two years later I would like to do some more trackwork, but my series markers just don't appear. Is there any tweak in TS2013 or 2014 that I'm not aware of to revive those series markers?

I have repeatedly toggled the 'route markers' button on.

The only thing that comes to mind is that the lat/lon is incorrect for the area you're working in. Has anything changed since you first started?

No, other than occasionally adding scenery, etc.

I'm stumped - unless there was a change in the new blueprint editor, I can't think of a single reason why the marker wouldn't show. Could you send me one of the old markers that does show and one of the new that doesn't? I don't need the *.dscv, just the two blueprints will do.

Haha, you've already gone beyond me. I'll look for a blueprint. Never did before.

I can see location markers. Just not series markers - by those I mean the thin black lines that lay over the terrain, obtained by using Google map kml files. I've forgotten the details on how I made them.

Save the KML to your RouteMarkers folder, and then use Mike Simpson's RW_Tools to convert to CSV. Then export from the Blueprint Editor to TS.

Thanks. I'm sorry to have wasted your time. It appears that I deleted all the old series markers when I released the route. I'm guessing. The memory goes these days. I'll have to redo them.
Appreciate you pointing me in the right direction.
