"............snip.............Just prior to reaching Badger 8 the display goes crazy with the consist suddenly accelerating very quickly, then stopping with the engines now in Badger 7 against the bumper, and no track in the forward view. ..........snip............"

Has the route been fully checked out with Route_Riter? Reason I ask is this sounds like a track database corruption issue.

video in OR

yes, checks ok with RR. Runs fine in MSTS.

Added a little info here. The Badger West 8 is not the only stub having this problem. It occurs with most of the stubs in the BW area but not in Badger East.

I also tried a different video card, subbing the ATI with a GE force 8600 GT. Same problem.

I do not think this has anything to do with video, more to do with something not quite right in the track/tdb. Sometimes the OR log can shed a bit of light on a peoblem. Can you do the run again and then zip the log and attach it here.

**prr4ever** · 05-26-2015, 15:06

Can Do. Will get it up here in a few.

video OR zip log

Should be attached.

This may be a route problem. As I stated it runs fine in MSTS and RR checks it ok, But OR is messing with the graphics in certain sections.

It is not messing with the graphics. It has found an anomaly in the TDB which has somehow not been picked up by Route Riter and is trying to follow it. I note a warning about replacing a track section in the TDB. This warning does not happen in my copy. I have just run a test in Badger and backed into Badger 8 with no problems. Using OR version 1 which is basically the same version as you are running.

Hi Dave,
The Route_Riter test I was referring to is the [ICHK] test found on the TSUtils Tab.

I don't know if you ran this test but just in case you didn't know, the [CHECK ROUTE] test does not test a routes database files.
best,

Thanks Baldwin,
I am going to reinstall the route as the mini I am running this from was copied over from my main MSTS. It may have gotten corrupted along the line somewhere. I don't know if NERR is still up to download from or not but I should have the original zip file here somewhere on one of these computers.

Thanks Vince,
No I had not run the ICHK test. I seldom use RR and with the current mess with the "correct" Java version I just do not use much of it. I did run the check route which as you just informed me, does not check the TDB.

I appreciate all the info from all of you. Will get this straightend out and let you know. As I enjoy switching and working yards and industries, most of my acts made for myself are less complex routes with industries and yards. OR finally lets me run off path and cross the main, get into industries in or off the path which is a bummer in MSTS.

I do not have a clean copy of Reedsburg on this machine. My regular system is down for the count, this is a back up. I have another system coming early next week and will get the good hard drive installed in it with the original download zips.
I did a search for NEER but it seems they are defunct. Guess too many members lost interest. Same with C&NW, both great virtual rr's. People have other lives too so I suppose it just faded away.

Meanwhile, off to a different route and OR!!
