    how do I install a CD from 3dtrainlstuff in open rails

    I am trying to install a CD from 3D trainstuff into openrails "the cajon pass route" . Do I just install the CD and point it toward Open Rails?

    Hi. Do you have just Open Rails installed?
    If just Open Rails, please download the OR documentation: http://openrails.org/files/OpenRails-Testing-Manual.pdf
    and go to section 4.4 for instructions for installing using a Non-MSTS folder structure

    The CD from 3dtrainstuff will need to know where the base MSTS folder structure is located, if not in the default directory location.

    Hope that helps

      Chris I have open rails wit msts. when I put in the CD it wants to send it to train simulator and I thought it should be routed to Open Rails the cd sends it some where but it does not end up in open rails. I have installed another Cd and it works fine but i can't remember how I did it.

        Nothing should end up in the Open Rails folders. All external content should go into the train simulator folders or whatever you have called them. If these are already accessed by Open Rails, then any additional content will also be accessed when you next run Open Rails.

          I installed the CD successfully and thanks to everyone that helped. I installed Xtracks (do not know if it helped) then I went back and read what i had done before and installed the CD on C://msts and it did show up and work on open rails.
