How do I install the Templates Options

[RUPERT2]

Hi everybody, I am very new to MSTS but like the programme very much and since I dont know much about programing I thought a program like Activity Generator would make my life a lot easier. I downloaded Activity Generator and installed alright, and then I downloaded all the Templates that I have Routes for into a separate folder. The question I have is where do I unzip the Templates too, is it into MSTS or Activity Generator or where ?Thanks to anybody who can help

Hello Rupert,

If the template zip folder contains separate subfolders for "Routes" and "Trains" (which are created when the template is packaged with Route Riter), here's how to install: The "Route" folder will contain a subfolder with the route name -- inside are additional subfolders for activities, paths, services and traffic. Copy the contents of each of these folders and paste them into the corresponding folders in your main MSTS route folder (for instance, if your template is for "Bridge Line", look for that folder in your main MSTS route folder -- inside will be the four folders you need to copy the new files into). After you've done that, go back to the template folder and open the "Trains" folder. Inside is a consist subfolder -- copy its contents and paste them into the main MSTS consist folder. Click "yes" to overwrite any duplicate files (that occasionally happens with paths and consists). It may appear to be a lot of work, but it's actually faster to do than it is to explain it...

Some older templates come with a self installer; simply double click to open and follow the installation instructions.
