    I had almost completed my latest layout and was raising terrain to hide a fiddle yard when I noticed that tunnels were not being created where, in places, the terrain was being raised above the tracks. I also noticed that I only had the default ground texture and had lost roads and other surface textures. Too late to do anything the computer locked-up.

    I can load any other layouts but if I try this particular one my computer locks up again. No autosave was available either.

    I think I shall have to start from the beginning again unless anyone has any suggestions.

    Hi Peter. Thanks for the offer of help. It is a small layout but I have no screenshots, only the suspect ROA file. I wouldn’t mind remodelling the graphics if only the track layout and track controls could be recovered. These involved the most work.

    Hi

    Can you open the track or does it just lock up?

    If you can open the track you could copy and paste to a new board only thing is you will loser all controllers and power supplys and such like.

    Thanks Dave

    Hi Dave. The program locks up after I select the particular layout and as soon as I try to click on the “tick” box. I shall just put it down to experience and start the layout again. Pity was that I had already tested the layout and it did everything that I wanted. As soon as I have a spare moment I will put a post in “Layouts” as others might like to try what I had in mind.

    (I also tried the ROA file on another computer with the same result)

    Thanks to Peter and Dave for their inputs. 😉

    Please send the layout to support@brainbombers.com, I will check if there is any program error.

    Hi all,

    I´d tested it,same as Pete says. I´ve take a look for md5sum in Hexwork,that´s a write-error if i right. Pete,you should send that layout to Brainbom see why that error. 💡
