MKT Sub template, Proposed (or oncoming) template package Options

[dgionet]

Hello to all,

Earlier this year, BLW has released the MKT pack and was well received by many MSTS users.

Many screenshots were posted in the TrainSim site and the route on which were taken the shots made a great combination, to some users in the TS forum.

I liked the combination myself and decided to make a template combining the route and the MKT pack.

Any idea of the route yet?

It is VSC'S A&O Sub route.

Tonight André Ming, the route creator, gave me permission to release small updates to the route to accomodate the latest template package. A big thanks André, much appreciated

I have started to work on the templates earlier this week and are now completed as of today.

I am willing to have it released in the templates page if there is some interest in it.

If so, It will be recommended to install separately the A&O route as a mini route installation and install the template package and the required downloads.

It can still be possible to install the package in your current TRAIN SIMULATOR folder containing the route and overwrite some of the fourteen (14) track database and world files. However, it will be not guaranteed the A&O default activities coming with the route will work properly. This is the reason behind the suggestion to have everything installed separately as a mini-route (as a second installation) if you wish to keep the original route and activities intact in your default Train Simulator folder.

For those interested to install in their current folder, the original route and world files modified to accomodate the current template will be available in the template package. If the user wishes to restore the route back to its original settings, he will simply unzip the fourteen (14) modified route and world files, overwriting the modified files and restoring the route as it was before the change. However, this will render the template package unusable if restoring the route. To reactivate the template package, simply reinstall the template package.

In this part of the MSTS world, the A&M railroad has been bought by MKT and the A&O Sub has been renamed the MKT Sub.

Here are some shots of some SLG-generated acts showing some of the player and traffic engines being part of the package.





















Will wait for replies if any interest.

Thanks!

Just to confirm that the templates are now available for download in the templates page.

Enjoy the pack and happy trainsimming to all.
