    How to Add a New Route?

    Hello,

    I'm new to the game, and was just wondering how I'm supposed to add new downloaded routes to play. I've been trying to find the file all over my computer, but I can't find it anywhere.

    Thanks in advance.

    You can specify where the downloaded files end up, but most browsers default to a "download" file which you can generally find in the file manager under "this PC" or libraries (depending on your system - that's where mine is). Or you can search for "download"

    This files then need to be unzipped. The easy way to do this is right click on the file and choose unzip.

    They will then need to be installed in the proper spot (for example, routes go in the ROUTE folder in your MSTS installation.) If you don't have a MSTS setup then you will have to create folders to mimic a MSTS installation (you only need the ROUTES, TRAINS, GLOBAL and SOUND folders).

    A much more detailed and probably better explanation is hers: https://www.trainsim.com/vbts/conten...l-MSTS-Add-ons
    Sounds like you need to read it.
