More help, Activity Generator 3.11 Options

[larrycxz]

I have reinstalled it at least twice.

The route is default Marians Pass. (from CD)
Clue one: When "change engines" I get "can't find path to Train Simulator"  Its on D:\train Simulator. I have reinstalled Activity Generator twice, once in Program Files and once in D:\Train Simulator.

Clue 2: When it does seem to generate an activity and it reaches save the file, It appears fine but the choosen name does not show up in USA2\actvities. In fact Windows search can't find it anyplace.

Clue 3. It did work once but the generated actvity ended with "actvity complete" right away. Can't remember how I got there.

Clue 4: when choosing a template other than Westbound.... I get "err 62 input passed end-of file"

I also bought Activity Master but get nowhere with it so far.

Actually I get more results from the MSTS activity editor..

Some other thoughts.

What version of Windows are you running?  Vista?  XP?  Win 98?  I haven't tested these programs yet with Vista and I don't know if they run ok w/ Vista or not.

Do you have more than one install of MSTS?  Or of Activity Generator? Multiple installations of AG and/or MSTS can frequently result in this kind of issue.  The SLG.ini file stores the full path of the last template accessed.  Even if you reboot your machine after running AG, then the next time you run AG from a different location, and/or access a template from a different location, the generated activity may not be stored where you think.  This can also occur if you use links to AG -- what is the path to the link?  You may not be running AG from where you think you are.

Just some ideas, I hope they help.  You could try deleting the .ini file in your \Program Files\ActivityGenerator folder.

Thanks,
