Offhand I can think of 3 potential options:

1. Use playable RTs and enter the notes manually (although I find that playable RTs can sound rather artificial)
2. IIRC, you can enter slash chords for each measure and have the slash apply only to the bass at each measure and add in the specific notes (I forget where that option is. I'll have to check the manual)
3.0 Use mutltiriffs until you hit upon the walk(s), 3.5. If you have v2024 or later, highlight the bars in question, and use the part (Re)generate feature until you get the walk.

Finally, a good number of bass tracks, and especially the country ones, will have walking bass in the B Substyle. This is sometimes explicitly mentioned in the RT memos, but unfortunately, many RTs do not have memos, or the memos have virtually no information in them.

Hope this helps!
