Error loading Raiclone library

[Keith678]

Hi,

When I load any of the raiclone objects I get some errors:

-saying it cannot find the matlib library. We use netwrok drives so more than one personat the office can access the files.

I've followed this topic - https://forum.itoosoft.com/faq-18/installing-railclone-3-assets-in-a-shared-network-path/

It use to work fine but now nothing seems to load right. Re installed everything too and still nothing.

Any help would be great. Thanks.

Maybe I'm wrong but this line is where it's getting lost

Code: [Select]

<matlib>$(LIBROOTPATH)\..\..\matlib\$(RENDERER).mat</matlib>
I'm not sure what defines $(LIBROOTPATH)?

Hi, thanks for getting in touch.

The issue is that the material libraries in your setup appear to be in a different location relative to the library from the default installation.

In a standard installation the libraries are installed here:

C:\Users\[name]\AppData\Local\Itoo Software\RailClone Pro\lib\default1

And the material libraries here

C:\Users\[name]\AppData\Local\Itoo Software\RailClone Pro\matlib

In your setup I assume the libraries are here (or at least they should be):

R:\DRAWING_RESOURCES\3DSTUDIO\ITOO\RAILCLONE PRO LIBRARY\lib\default1

In which case the materials should be here

R:\DRAWING_RESOURCES\3DSTUDIO\ITOO\RAILCLONE PRO LIBRARY\matlib

And maps should be here

R:\DRAWING_RESOURCES\3DSTUDIO\ITOO\RAILCLONE PRO LIBRARY\maps

This is necessary because the matlibs are loaded relative to the library so the integrity of the original directory structure is important.

I hope that helps,

Paul

Thanks for the reply Paul,

So my Library is setup without the lib folder.

I'll fix that and see if it works.

[Keith678]

So it's still not working.

Changed the regdit, re-installed railclone and still the same error.

[Paul Roberts]

can you please show me your directory structure again. Just to check it is all correct.

Thanks!

Okay if I put the 'matlib' folder into R:\DRAWING_RESOURCES\3DSTUDIO it can find it and it works. Which makes seense with the "\..\.." as it's going up two folders.

I just don't understand why the index file targets this

Code: [Select]

<matlib>$(LIBROOTPATH)\..\..\matlib\$(RENDERER).mat</matlib>.

I can bulk rename these index files but if i ever need to reinstall these again it would be a problem again.

I can see my librootpath is R:\DRAWING_RESOURCES\3DSTUDIO\ITOO\RAILCLONE PRO LIBRARY so thats why it looking for it two folders up.

[Keith678]

Okay I was able to fix it.

Once I changed the Library Paths.
