Northest Line v3, No Permissive signalling mode confirmation (second window) Options

[dgionet]

Hi Steve and Norm,

The Northwest Line 3 template is now in the testing mode. Two testers are working on the route and Benny, one of them has pointed out a problem when making the conversion to Permissive signalling mode. The first window backing up the original TDB file has shown but not the second confirming the change.

I have tried myself, with all files unstored and waited two minutes without any results. Remember that one of the biggest TDB files in MSTS, the Wupper route (15MB), took about a minute to change and could see the second window. The NWL 3 is about 2.5MB.

Any help will be appreciated and will continue investigation.

Thanks.

Denis

Denis,

Please try waiting longer than two minutes. I have seen the Pokey take much longer than two minutes, and NWL is larger than that. Steve is considering adding an indicator that would show that AG is still working on it, so that the user will not lose patience and quit before the program finishes.
