@N0THATGUY @Raceless It's worth noting that with the career save converter, this can cause individual issues that aren't directly related to the mod but to their save file instead. Through testing, I've found out that actual map issues (broken textures etc) can actually be caused by older .json files within your save. I haven't yet figured out the exact files that could cause this but will be working on it. In terms of making your old save file work the only .json files you need are insurance.json and partInventory.json. In other words, if you have a broken save caused by an RLS update, you can just make another campaign, complete the tutorial and buy a car then save. Drag your "vehicle folder, insurance.json and partInventory.json" to your newly made save and you will have everything you did before. (this is bare minimum meaning you will lose your levels and experience etc however I need to do more testing as I believe it's actually that .json file that causes the issues). I'll update you guys when I've done more testing but just a heads up that some people that may be having issues could be specific to them and their save and not because of RLS
Just wanted to say save convertor is deprecated due to what you have stated. But when the save convertor was needed all it did was switch the level that the career was linked to in a general.json. I do appreciate the time you put into this
It was a good a needed tool at the time and (could) be used in the future when more updates come out that edit the actual map itself (there's potential it can be used for when an official BeamNG map updates too but I can test that separately) The majority of people should have had no issues however if so, hopefully the above can assist them in getting their save back if they had the necessary backups. If there are any people that still have their older save and can't have access to the converter, it may be worth adding a section in the post on editing the general.json file. This can be done manually by just editing the file itself to state "rls_west_coat_usa". Thank you both for all your work on the mod, hopefully I can help more in the future with updates! I'll update you more on the save issues once I've tested more.
I am mildly confused by your message, but we will never need the save converter for map conversion ever again as I found a way around it/build it into the mod itself. BeamNG making west coast changes will not affect this mod(unless it is texture changes). Also you should not change your general.json to say rls_west_coast_usa. This will make your save not work in the base version, We override which map is loaded into career which does not use the general.json. Glad you are enjoying the mod!
The points stated were meant in terms of broken saves not in general, in other words, if other people were having issues then the points I listed can be workarounds. I find it hard to believe however that BeamNG changes would not affect the mod especially if it was map changes. Even if the mod was not affected in some way then the save would still get broken. Editing the general.json is just a pointer of what map you want loaded, you can edit this file back and fourth with no issue to your save and can play on the base version just fine too, the issue would become apparent when the actual map itself updated
We use a standalone map, I'm not sure what would honestly break a save about map changes as I don't believe any map data is in the save other than player position. What I meant about not being able to use your save in base game referred more to the general population which does not want to go into files and edit things.
this is a great mod, amazing! i wonder if there's a way to mod it so you can go to a different map (e.g. east coast, utah, italy etc) while maintaining the progression and keeping your car inventory, like snowrunner
Another "my 2 cents" different track travel for championships etc and maybe one of those gigantic but good fps maps as alternate storyline in career or something of sorts.
Is anyone else having an issue where the garage computer can't be used and stops the game from saving?
Hmm, I have never heard or seen anything like this. Can you press ~ before walking up to the computer And take a screenshot if there are any Errors(Red Text)?
I play 2.0.10, now there is a variety of vehicles, also great idea with empty chassises. I see this error when mod is activated and I enter scenarios:
cant acess the dealership, so cant use a new save lol (that save was broken somehow, created a new one and now it works fine) --- Post updated --- btw why is the dealership fee, 30k?
loved that new chassis only cars that shows up on the dealers , its way better to do builds from scratch . also as bug report on the 2.0.10 for me police doesn't spawn and the barrier's bug i told before that was in one track now its on almost every track that passes to the place where it was having the barriers tracks that i have seen these RLS PROAM 1,2,3 RLS FACTORY STOCK (don't remember exaclty wich course) RLS CUSTOM CHAMPIONSHIP ROUND 2 ---------- another section that i presence bug was the drag racing npc's doesn't move like before , tried vanilla and modded cars same happen . even this mod having their issues this is a must have mod for beamng i play like 2-4h almost every day on it xD , keep up the good work guys ! .
Please tell me the problem remains, I think that when you save and exit the game, you have to buy one of the three cars every time and then the other cars become visible?? Thank you
so a tip to solve the road blocks instead of edit every race that passes where they are , for me what solved the issue was to edit on f11 in freeroam and remove those road blocks (these are vanilla objects so i think if any game updates come's out it will be back again) here's how it looks (map location), for me it solved not seen it spawns in any of the races i tried .
