RE: wish me luck.......................................
The process is actually fairly simple. Make a new folder called \Backup somewhere. Go into the \Train Simulator folder, copy the \Global folder, paste it into \Backup. If the install screws up, just delete the new \Train Simulator\Global folder, copy the old one from \Backup and paste it back in. Xtracks only replaces one file in the \Global folder, tsection.dat, and it makes a backup of that before replacing it. It also adds a bunch of new shape files to the \Global folder that didn't exist in the original, which is why I say you should delete the new \Global folder first if you're gonna restore the old one, that way everything is back to what you have with a clean MSTS install.
