After upgrading from Biab 2017 I miss many 2018 RealTracks in the StylePicker list even after Rebuild. And some sets don't show all the RealTracks for that set. According to the program I don't miss any RealTrack. The files up to set 300 are installed in the right directory.
Thanks, Jan R.

So what you are suggesting is that under "What Add-ons fo I have" it shows you have no missing RealTracks, but in the Style picker, there are several missing?
Presumably you've tried the Rebuild and Fix option in the RealTracks picker, and a full build in the Style Picker?
Which tracks are missing?
I see a [N/A] for a drums real track for the _BUMP style, but the drums track is there and plays.

Are you sure about that I thought the distubution download was 502 Unless of course it has changed. You can check under Help, about this will show your installed version.
Anyway it wont hurt to download update 504 and run just to be sure.
I executed 504 again, no results. In the list I miss the complete sets 298, 299 and 300. The files are stored on my PC in the right directory. I am using BiaB for many year, always the annual updates, never had problems.

Do you have Real Tracks Sets 288, 299, 300 in the RealTracks Picker, but no RT 288, RT 299, RT 300 in the Style Picker?
If so, I have the same result as you.

There two differend screens that shows the style picker list: left on main screen under song box (browse all styles) and center on main screen in the track box (assign RT to track). Both shows different style sets. The first mentioned 298, 299 and 300 missing, second one 3x 298, 299 and 300 missing.

Jan,
Can you please post a screen shot of what you are seeing?
To do that...
1. Capture the screen by pressing 'Print Screen'. This will copy a picture of your screen to the Clipboard.
2. Open Windows 'Paint'.
3. Press CTRL+V to paste the image from Clipboard into Paint.
4. Save the image in Paint as a jpg file.
Now follow the instructions at the below link for uploading a graphic.
The missing Realtracks look like they're VideoRealtracks.
I think that one set of VideoRealtracks comes with the Pluspak upgrade and two sets come with the 49Pak (US$49). I'm not sure about this though. Did you purchase the 49 Pak? And if you purchased it, did you install it? That might explain why they are missing.
I have alway the annual PlusPak. This time included a bonus for video RT set 1. I installed the two exe files. I think the video RT's are not in the sets 299 and 300.

Problem solved. The problem was not that I was missing RT's, but not using the check box "show if tempo is out of range" in the assign RT to track style picker list. Enable that option shows the sets 298-300 on the list.
I still have a question. The other "browse all" style picker list does not show RT sets 298-300. There is no check box "show if tempo is out of range". See image:
