@WernerK yeah, I'm having the games on the D drive

@DadoFlame: I think I've got it. I assumed that the Steam mod directory and the Steam backup directory are always subdirectories of C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\. In your case the mod directory is completely different because you use a SteamLibrary for the mods whereas the backup directory is where it should be. Maybe Steam has changed something or this has become a special option for Steam users. Now I have to think about an alternative method to find the backup path. I cannot say if it is possible at all because managing directories is very difficult in standard Lua. At this moment I recommend using the version from transportfever.net .

C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\Backups is present with 4 files in it:

2558585564_wktmr_settings.lua
2558586098_wkrts_settings.lua
2669471304_wkts_settings.lua
2891024142_wkjs_settings.lua

hope this was useful

If SettingsSaver is installed by Steam it uses the default Steam backup directory, Normally it's created automatically and should be there if not removed manually. It would be very helpful for me if you could tell me if there is a path like 'C:\Programme(x86)\Steam\Backups' because someone else had got a similar issue. Maybe something has been changed,

@wernerK I haven't set up any backup directory and I'm on windows 10. As you suggested I will try later with the transportfever.net settings saver or leave it out. thanks

@DadiFlame and all who have this issue: The issue is not with Track Sorter but with Settings Saver, and you don't seem to be the only one who has got this problem. I think either Steam has changed or removed their backup directory or Settings Saver doesn't find the correct path or you changed or removed the backup directory for yourself. It could also be that it's a consequence of UG's current update. We have to find out ... So please send me the correct path of your Steam/Backups directory. Which OS do you use? Windows? Linux? Mac?

As short-time fix I recommend to switch off Settings Saver or install it from transportfever.net . It also works but uses another backup location independent of Steam.

@MellowRebel: Can you please post the decisive lines of of your stdout? I didn't have any trouble with it.

MODS THROWING ERRORS AT IT CRASHES THE GAME.
WernerK  [author] 5 Sep, 2022 @ 2:35am 
I can only see errors in a stdout generated by a crash.
GrumpyZade 4 Sep, 2022 @ 4:31pm 
Oh no sorry I don't have the stdout from the crashs
WernerK  [author] 4 Sep, 2022 @ 12:57pm 
Was this the stdout immediately before a crash? I can't either find an error message, and not even from TrackSorter. So you can perhaps try to shut down all other mods or install Track Sorter only together with the freestyle station mod and nothing else. Perhaps you could switch off Common API at first, because there are often issues especially with this mod.

https://pastebin.com/WrkgW7KV thats the stdout if you want to look at it. I didn't see anything important, just a lot of missing .tga

I don't use settings saver, I just copy the folders from the steam directory into another folder onto another hard drive in case some mod updates and messes something up..or I do lol. I'll look later if I get a chance to get on
WernerK  [author] 3 Sep, 2022 @ 11:20am 
@ GrumpyZade: Can you find any error messages in the stdout? Do you have installed Settings Saver? I know some Steam users with mapped Steam backup directory had got problems. So you could perhaps switch off Settings Saver and look if you have still these crashes.

@wernerK I had it like that and it would crash, I tried multiple ways before commenting the first time. Yesterday was just the first time I thought to try the steam id. I make sure not to have duplicate mods, I don't like having too many as this game isn't optimized well and I have a old-ish gpu so I'm always double checking and making backups
WernerK  [author] 3 Sep, 2022 @ 5:46am 
@ GrumpyZade: The blacklist entry must have underscores like the file does!
blacklist = {
'seilbahn',
'lollo_freestyle_train_station',
},
And if you have both versions from Steam and trainfever.net , be sure that it is the right file.
I'm thinking about making a default entry in future versions.
GrumpyZade 2 Sep, 2022 @ 7:11pm 
Sorry I thought I gave you said examples.. but I put some links to screenshots. 'Free Style Train Station' is the name of the mod, it's by lollus. The 'Tracks' are platforms that are classified as tracks and are placed in to the restricted category. I already said I tried, multiple times and it either crashed or it didn't do anything. But after a stupid amount of time I remembered that I downloaded it from steam so it probably uses the steam id instead of the name as if I downloaded from tpf net. For anyone else that doesn't understand maybe you can add in the description that if from steam it needs to be the steam id

@ GrumpyZade: I need examples. Which mods and which tracks? So perhaps I could do something in future versions. If you don't want to wait, you could add the name (or a part of the name) in the blacklist of wkts_settings.lua - like I have already done with 'seilbahn'.
GrumpyZade 31 Aug, 2022 @ 8:10pm 
Could you make it so that Freestyle Train Station platforms (which in game are classified as tracks) never show up in the speed restricted categories like you did with station tracks? The platforms have their own category, but show up anyways in the first restricted category. I've been trying to add them myself, but with no real instruction and about 5 crashes I'm giving up lol
