    Problems with Restoring dynamic tracks in Dynatrack 0.62

    Hey guys,

    I replaced the MSTS standard tracks with DB tracks on various routes using these instructions:


    Now that the entire route has DB tracks, the next step I wanted to take was to swap individual tracks, especially in Berlin, the S-Bahn tracks for those with power rails.
    When I wanted to load the corresponding route in Dynatrax, I got countless errors “Token not found”.

    What did i do wrong? How do I get the error fixed?

    Thanks in Advance
    Ferdi

    It's been about 12 years since I used Dynatrax to revert a converted route... let me dig a bit to see if there's a workaround. The tool author passed away many years ago.

      When you do a Dynatracks conversion, there should be a set of .DTBAK files for each of your world files. If those are deleted or missing, there's really not a good path backward that I'm aware of.

      If you have a copy of the route before you did your DBTracks conversion which has the .DTBAK files, you might want to consider starting over.

      Revert the Dynatracks first back to dynamic track, do your DBTracks conversion, and then try to run Dynatracks again to convert to the new profile.

      If you don't have that, then the options aren't great. You'd have to convert the TrackObj that reference Dynatracks shapes back to a Dyntrack object, and manually add back the TrackSections data.


      Another approach... eliminate the dynamic track altogether.
