I’ve got a reasonably sized track collection, but no access to it in the current (OA 250320.35141.7302) build. Wherefore it doth needs be?
What version were the tracks made for?
Al Rilma completely overhauled the track sim, with something brand new. To my knowledge, that new track sim is incompatible with old track files from Ellisbury or earlier - and they removed the legacy track sim, because legacy code is a headache.
They’re working on the new track editor, and we should see new tracks made somewhat soon.

Editing them won’t be too hard, I just want to know where they need to be. I have them in the last folder (appdata/local/blahblahblah) we were guided to (ages ago), they’re not visible in game.
EDIT: Even if the code is useless, I still have the images I can use to rebuild them.
The new tracks need to go in [your Automation install folder]/UE427/AutomationGame/Mods…
But you’re probably better off starting from scratch, including the images. See, the old track editor expected 1280x720 images, because the old sim displayed 720p images with a set orientation at most and never zoomed in. The new sim expects at least 1024x1024, ideally larger (8192x8192 is ideal) - because the game rotates and zooms in. If you try feeding those old images into the track editor, it’ll tell you they’re too small because 720 pixels vertically is less than 1024.
Thanks for the tip. Haven’t even looked at/ for the new track editor yet. Up to 8k px…hmm…
