Trees on train tracks

[rainmaster]

I am running Ohio Rail Upgrade (Bodiddly). Decided to reinstall it. I like the route even if it is quite old. There are trees on tracks and also in other wrong places. This doesn't happen in MSTS. If you have this route running tutorial 1 you have to drive through a tree to get into the first tunnel.
Any suggestions on why and how to fix it?

See posts #'s 11, 63, 67, 72, & 73. ORTSUserPreferenceForestClearDistance ( 2 )

The track file you put in the OpenRails folder should look exactly like this ( spaces and all )

[U]space at top before 1st line[/U]
include ( "..\\Bodiddly RR.trk" )

15.1 Modifications to .trk Files
Many of the features described in this chapter require additional parameters to be added in the route’s
.trk le. The additional parameters can be directly added at the end (just above the last parenthesis) of
the route’s .trk le residing in the route’s root folder. Don’t add such parameters in other positions of
the le, because this would create problems if you want to use the MSTS editors with the related route.
However, to avoid modifying the original le, the Include method described here is also applicable to the
.trk le, creating a new .trk le inserted into an OpenRails folder in the root folder of the route. As an
example, in case of the parameter needed to avoid forest trees on tracks ( see here), this additional .trk
le will contain:
include ( ../Surfliner2.trk ) <<< I much prefer using quotes with double backslash...less chance of errors, technically the correct way, especially since there is a space in the name

Only OR will look in the Openrails folder.
