Does OR Affect the Ability to use TSUNPACK to Unpackage Activities.
When I tried to Install Activities for BNSF Seligman 2.0 I got a Pop-Up saying Cannot Locate Train Simulator.

I'd say forget about TSUNPACK and try MSTS APK Extractor v3 here in the library. >>> apkex-v3-07.zip
By Ged Saunders [slipperman] - just an excellent utility.
Works with both OR and MSTS, easy to install and use, among the many tasks it will do - converts apk files to zip files. Finds all the OR profiles or Train Simulator installs (mini routes). Ged did a fine job finding and reworking this program into a very useful tool.

What I would love to see is people starting to use opensource methods and github for helper utilities so we don't get stuck on the past with tools that maybe "used" to work at some point. With opensource, these could be updated long after the originator "moved on" to other things.
Sure, we can re-create from scratch... if you have the time... I guess I'm just wishing for a better world.
I've also wondered if it makes sense to contribute some of these things to the larger open rails project. Add to the list of "tools" that come with and are accessible from open rails.
And +1 for Ged's new version of TSUNPACK. Much better!
To answer the original question, in theory OR does not affect TSUNPACK, however the original TSUNPACK is not very reliable. Much easier to just upgrade to Ged's version that to try to solve the problem.

An excellent idea, Pete!

Hi Gentlemen,
Thanks for the compliments regarding APK Extractor
As the original program was issued as Open Source, I continued on that premise and released my source code, together with the original; they are included in the upload (or should be!!). To experienced C# programmers, it's very likely that my coding isn't very elegant and doesn't use the language as it should be, but, hey, it works!! It was my first attempt at anything in C#, but I must admit that, even though I've done a couple more utilities (TSFE and MSTS_Swap), my C# skills haven't improved much - but I enjoy it
