BVE: decompression problems

[vallisaurea]

Who can help? I'm having problems with some japaneese routes (Chuo, Odakyu, and other lines) which are compressed in LZH/LHA format. Which program is the best for decompression? WinZip recognizes files, but can't dearchive, PowerArchive the same, but with some more succes. Very often, I also receive Run Time Error (9) message in some of that routes. I hope that someone knows the solution. Thanks.

Also, this new Hungarian Budapest tram line is very promising, just go ahead! My first Croatian BVE route VALLIS AUREA is still mostly in my papers, but it will see daylight for few months. I hope.

RE: decompression problems

Everything concerning problems with Japanese routes is well explained by John Womersley (Womer_uk) in his "How to download, alter and run Japanese routes (Part 1)" guide availble at http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/BVE/files/ (you have to subscribe at Yahoo groups if not yet done): the document's filename is BVE "Jap_route part 1.zip"

Probaly the guide is out of date about the location of Lhmelting utility on the web: the actual address of Micco's homepage in english is at http://www2.nsknet.or.jp/~micco/english/index_e.htm

RE: decompression problems

Thank You very much, I managed to decompress LZH ODAKYO route folder, but unfortunately they won't work, I receive RUN TIME ERROR message. I don't know why, because routes seems to be properly written.
