Automatic Route Backup

Unread postby mikesimpson » Sun Jul 15, 2012 12:14 am

I have put together a short program, imaginatively named 'Route_Backup' which has the ability to back-up a selected route by either double clicking a desktop icon, or preferably by adding the backup program to the Windows Task Scheduler and it will then automatically back up your route to a dated folder at set intervals, daily, weekly etc as you wish.

With this you should no longer have any excuse for using days of work

See http://www.rstools.info/Route_Backup.pdf for full details.

Hi Mike,

Pardon my ignorance, but I thought RStools was for the old Rail Simulator which I do not have. It appears it works for Railworks?

Thats why I got RW_Tools.

Thanks,
Rick

Thats just the URL. If you open the PDF it talks about RailWorks.

Route backup makes it very easy to backup a route but that is all it does so RW Tools is still a very good program to have Well worth anything you pay for it. IMHO It is the 1 most important tool to have for Railworks. The help file with this program and on Mike's webpage are phenomenal. If I did not have this program I probably would have given up on train simulating along time ago. SO! With that said, Heres to you Mike Simpson !*cheers*! !!howdy!! **!!bow!!** !*salute*! !!*ok*!! !*cheers*! **!!bow!!** *!!thnx!!* !!howdy!! !!*ok*!!

Thanks for the clarification guys!

Take care,

P.S. I agree whole heartedly concerning RW_Tools.
