How To: Update Existing Shapes & Placing New Ones In Place?

[marklester01]

Yes, I'm aware this question is as old as ORTS back in '09ish & MSTS in '01 as Itsself,lol! But, how do you go about upgrading a shape by removing( so to speak ) the old & replacing the new with the new one over it? I'm asking because so many have said TSRE has made it much more simple ( I use it for Consist making & editing constantly; plus it tells on you so to speak if you accidently didn't name something right, & the coupling(s) seem off ) & am needing to "Move away off of Bruce Bridge's Signals. While yes, They look way better than the Default in MSTS that was, OR likes to display a tiny dotted square around the Signals making them seem kind of odd. From V1.3,..1.4. & now there's been that problem. But hey, Travis Ebner has made some excellent signals for RXR, Signals for Routes, & Road Signs, am gonna give it try. If I can get the readed out visuals on here vs somewhere so I go back to the Instructions ( excuse My Slowness ahead of time ) & make sure it's done properly.

I'm trying to make sense of what you said... (I can be dense at times) So, you are asking if there is a "Bulk Replace" option for ORTS route shapes? I'm not aware of an OPTION for this in TSRE5... It remains a manual process, AFAIK, since you don't just "replace shape files", you need to replace references as well.

Ok, so you add The New Refs. in, place the textures( .ace or .dds ), Shapes in Route or Global Folder or both( .s, OR doesn't need the .SD for it?), most are from MSTS though?, & place carefully?
