I posted this problem in a different thread and it received no reply, but I found the timetable again today and so I was wondering about the problem again: I've just finished all the down trains in a timetable for this simulation (Wembley Sub) and on a play-through realised that because of the TD controls and my LUL trains being the standard *X**, I need to swap the first two digits round. However on exporting to ConvData (so I could do a find-and-replace 2J** with J2** etc) it returns "Convdata terminated with exit code 1633496". Any help with this error? Thanks in advance Log in to reply |

Are you trying to convert an XML format wtt? Convdata doesn't support those.

I'm not sure what you mean. I go into Wembley Sub sim, load up a game with the TT. Click timetable, then Export/Import. I browse the correct files into their relevant box, and click convert to text format. The console then displays "Convdata terminated with exit code 1633496". Log in to reply |

Yeah, it's possible you're attempting to convert an XML wtt. What happens if you call convdata via the command prompt? Log in to reply |

You'll either need to 'cd' into the Convdata directory, or pass the full path to it.

You've got spaces in your filesnames, you need to double quote ("like this" them,also it's -CR not [-CR]

You also need to put your paths in speech marks, ie:convdata.exe -CR "C:\Program Files (x86)\SimSig\WembleySub\Winter 2013 DOWN.wtt" "C:\Program Files (x86)\SimSig\WembleySub\testtesttesttest.txt"This is because the file paths have spaces in them, so the command prompt thinks you are feeding it loads of files instead of just two. Also probably worth double-checking the spelling of the paths to be sure it finds them OK. Log in to reply |

Thanks for both of your help - got it working now. I'm aiming for it to be finished by the end of summer.

When I attempted to convert them back, it crashed and wiped both. :/ I do have a backup, but I now cannot convert this. Convdata.exe -cR "path to text file" "path to wtt" Does ConvData need an existing WTT file, a blank WTT file or a non-existant WTT file to work with? Log in to reply |

I've quite happily overwritten existing WTT files. Does it print any info?

" said:When I attempted to convert them back, it crashed and wiped both. :/ConvData opens the first argument read-only, so any crash will not alter it. Quote: What happens when you try? Quote: Any of those. It opens the first file argument read-only, and the second write-only. This has the effect of creating the file if it's not there, and wiping out any existing contents. I'm not sure what you're doing wrong, but I've never had any problems like the ones you describe. Log in to reply |

I don't know where 1633496 comes from. The ConvData code definitely only returns 0 or 1.
