29 March 2008,
I Purchased Activity Master and I Have Several Questions.
1. Once I Download It Where Do I Install It? In My Trainsim Folder.
2. How Does It Interface With Trainstore and Conbuilder?
3. I Already Have Activities Installed, Do I Reinstall Them or Will Activity Master Automatically Pick Them Up to be Modified?

I'm Somewhat Computer Illiterate With Some Things So I Wan't To Do This Right.
Thankyou,
DaveKfromUP

Hi Dave,

You might want to check out Steve's tutorials for Activity Master.

For installing:

For using Activity Master:

As far as re-installing the activities, that is not necessary if they are currently listed for the routes in Train Simulator. Once you start Activity Master, you will navigate to the Activities folder in the route, and select the activity you wish to work with. As you work with the program, you can get pretty creative with changing cars and locomotives based on how you set up the car lists to your liking. That step is not required to use the program, just something you can do for your own selection types.

As far as using with Train Store, Activity Master will only compile a list to use from only the non-stored rolling stock.

I can't comment on Conbuilder since I don't use the program.
