    DEFAULT trainset file in OR only installation.

    Hi all,

    Is the DEFAULT trainset file required for an OR only installation?

    Nope. Any folder which emulates the directory structure of a MSTS install will do fine.

    Try the TrainSimulations demo route to get an idea of what's needed.

      Hi Fred,
      From the Open Rails Manual:
      4.3. MSTS Files Used in Whole or Part by Open Rails
      Open Rails Manual, Release 1.3
      \GLOBAL
      \ROUTES
      \TRAINS
      \SOUND
      No other files or folders are required in the root folder.

      Within the \GLOBAL folder two sub-folders are required:
      \SHAPES
      \TEXTURES

      Within the \TRAINS folder two subfolders are required:
      \CONSISTS
      \TRAINSET

        Some MSTS era tools may need it. I believe the MSTS AE will not open error-free without it being present. Just depends on which tools you prefer to use.
