At the moment, i am using TSRE5 v0.8004. What i am looking for is a guide explaning how to merge 2 routes and what are the settings entries i should use. I looked in the guide that was made by Pete Willard. There are some explanations but no "how to" on merging.
Derek's correct. There's no "this is how it is" with a merge.
In 7.x thru 8.004, data from the second route being merged into the route you opened will over-write and replace what was already there for terrain and terrtex, and the entire TDB will be merged whether you want it or not.
v8.005 adds a few guard rails that give you slightly better control over a merge. You can choose to or not to import the tile and terrtex data, and to or not to import the TDB.
I personally don't bring in the TDB, which means I have to either manually click the imported track to add to the TDB, or clean up any overlapping/unwanted track pieces and hope that the TDB rebuild picks everything up.
All of these are very dangerous functions, and should be carefully thought out before attempting. Make sure you've got good backups because there is no undo for these.
If you like what you see here at Trainsim.com, be it the discussions and knowledge in the forums, or items available in our library, I hope you'll consider a paid membership to help support keeping the site operating.... Thanks!
