ORTS on WIN-7 Pro

[OTTODAD]

Testing Railworks, MSTSBin and ORTS on my new WIN-7 Professional, i5-2500K, 8GB RAM, nVidia GTX 560Ti, 240GB SSD computer all works beautifully, MSTS DB-TRACKS-ROUTES excepted, good frame rates and no stuttering running the latter 2 train simulators.

Just one oddity, ORTS shows no overhead wires, the DB-TRACKS and MSTSBin electrified routes using the MSTS default wire.

Also where does ORTS now save it's OpenRailsLog.txt file to in WIN-7 so that it shows on the desktop like it does in WIN-XP ?

Any ideas ?

Otto,
Please makes sure you selected the "Overhead wire" box in the Options Menu. If it isn't checked then overhead wires will not show.

The location of the OR log file should be your desktop, not matter what version of Windows you run. It's on my Win7 Home Premium desktop. The code defines it as follows:

LoggingPath = Environment.GetFolderPath(Environment.SpecialFolde r.DesktopDirectory);

Silly me, forgot to set the ORTS Options, old age and grappling with this WIN-7 Professional 64-bit computer !

hminky in the MSTS forum spotted that it's Logging box was not ticked, I do not remember having had to tick before.

All is well now !
