Open Rails won't load my custom consist.

Whenever I click start with explore route selected, I cannot find the locomotive that I want.

You find the locomotive and/or consist before you click Start.

Where can i find the OR debug menu?

[austinthatrainman]

You find the locomotive and/or consist before you click Start.

The locomotive doesn't show up.

[baldwin]

The OR debug menu is Shift+F5. There are several screens so do that for each one until you get the screen you want.

As for " the locomotive doesn't show up", what locomotive are you using. It may not be under the name you think it is.

I pressed Shift+F5 nothing happened.

When running an activity in a route in ORTS then doing that displays 5 consecutive overlays with all sorts of information.

Now how do you do this?

Hi,

The locomotive doesn't show up

You've been asked several times to post a listing if your consist, but it's still not appeared!! How do you expect us to help you?

Does your consist show up in MSTS? and can you run it?

Cheers,
Ged

I just have the default consist on OR. When i make a custom consist it shows up in MSTS but not OR.

Here we go again. People asking for help and not answering the questions that people trying to help them are asking. You don't pick consists to run, you pick activities. So are you saying the activity isn't showing up? That could be any number of reasons and not related to the consist.

Try this....

Make a copy of an activity that does work and then change this new activity to use your new consist. If the new copied activity is displayed by OR to run, then your problem is with the original activity. If the new copied activity doesn't display, it's probably the consist. If you create a consist that doesn't have a player driveable loco then you can't run the activity since you can't run the player service since the consist doesn't have a player driveable loco.

It would help to post/attached your consist.

You don't pick consists to run, you pick activities.

In explore mode you pick the consist.

[mikephfl]

In explore mode you pick the consist.

My bad. I don't use explore more.

[baldwin]

Now how do you do this?

If you press and hold Shift, then press F5 the debug screen appears. Continue to do this until the debug information you want to study appears.

Obviously someone with too much time on his hands and an IQ of a boiled carrot.

The name "Austin" is familiar to a lot of folks around here...
