Should XTracks have been downloaded into c:\program file\microsoft games\train simulator\global\shapes. Did I download it to the wrong place?

ALL RIGHT! I got it running! Evidently I downloaded XTrack into the wrong location. After some of the questions that you'll have asked about this and where to find it I thought that I might have. I downloaded it into train simulator\global\shapes and it started running. I can run #7, #8 #58 and the juice train. I am having trouble running the others. I still might have something downloaded into the wrong place. I want to thank you'll for all of your help. I might still have a few questions later. Pat |

Glad you got it running!!!! The wrong location will do that. My guess is if an activity does not run, some thing is usually missing. I would double check the required files again. Jim |

Jim Route-Riter does a great job checking activities. If it passes R-R, then it will almost surely run. But sometimes . . . -------------------- Norman

Does anyone know the person that did the Seaboard Route and how to contact him? I have seen single freaight cars and motors listed in Train-Simulator. Are these for downloading into MSTS for creating your own consists as in the MSTS Editor & Tools. If so what is needed to dowonload them and where do you download them to. I have looked for Editor & Tools but have not found it yet. Pat |

I have looked for Editor & Tools but have not found it yet. Pat Carey Stevens' contact information is on the same page as the route download. Rolling stock downloads for the SAL route are also on that same page. You can use the MSTS Activity Editor (AE) to place these items in either the route template or a generated activity. It is much simpler (and safer), however, to use Activity Master (AM) to make substitutions. ConBuilder (CB) can also make safe substitutions. A typical shortcut to AE might be "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Train Simulator\launcher.exe"-runeditor -------------------- Norman

Pat Pat, You can go to our Seaboard Air Line page at http://www.skylinecomputing.com/seaboard_air_line.htm and download the route, the rolling stock packs for it and activities for the route (the route includes activities that use the rolling stock in this rolling stock pack). All is straightforward, you don't have to use the MSTS Activity Editor. Also if you have our Activity Generator program you can generate activities for Carey's great route using a template we have posted on our site, at http://www.skylinecomputing.com/downloads/SALTplt.zip Finally there are also some items of rolling stock posted on the Seaboard Air Line page of this site. These were just contributed by fans of the route and are not needed to run the template or the included activities. I will probably stop hosting those files soon as I am running out of room on this site. Thanks, Steve -------------------- Steve Davis
