    B & O West End Scale Rail Problem

    THIS IS COPIED AS A DUPLICATE TO A THREAD I STARTED ON MSTS ROUTE QUESTIONS. Charles valid point is WHY it's duplicated and my response self explanatory?

    OP:-

    I'm obviously doing something wrong here.

    Long time since I got Scale Rail or indeed installed it in any route. Here's the problem.

    I seem to have a load of Scale Rail files so not sure exactly what should be installed and where.

    BTW this seems to be a Open Rails issue?

    Help appreciated.

    Appears maybe OR has replaced missing SR track with default track.
    Simples Charles. It may be me being stupid rather than an issue with OR. Scale Rail was an MSTS add-on and I don't pretend to be informed enough to know how these issues are affected by OR. I'll post it there as well and update both posts to help others if it's a Sim specific issue or just me being thick

    What I don't understand is that some of the Scale rail shows up perfectly and yet sections that don't appear to be "special" are reverting to Mk1 DEFAULT MSTS track textures.

    No error log here as OR doesn't see any error....

    Then I suggest you contact the author of the route.

    Where are you positioned to find this missing SR track? I'm downloading the route now but by the time the D/Ls finish it will be too late to check. May be tomorrow afternoon before I can look to see if I can duplicate.

    BTW you do have ORTS SuperElevation set to zero?

      Where are you installing the route, in your main route folder or as mini? You must have ORTS superelevation in the start screen set to zero for Scalerail to display properly.

        Geoff,

        The error log shows a lot more than errors, it shows your install location and the options that you have selected.
        Please post your error log.
