New Consist Editor please?

[R. Steele]

Hi everybody. Still looking at TSRE 5.

How come every time I try to Download File somebody tries to sell me something else? sounds like a Microsoft rip-off to me.

Ian trying to find:- OpenAL32.dll with not much success.

There should be a Library of Necessary Files listed somewhere?

Many thanks.

Paul.

Erics post #10 this thread

OpenAL is in our file library.... search for "OpenAL"


Required by some utilities including TSRE. Be sure to read installation instructions for the specific utility as to where the files are required. On a 64bit installation, the 64 bit version goes in Windows\System32 and the 32 bit version goes in Windows\SysWow64, which may confuse people given the folder names. By OpenAL.org



Be very careful about which goes where. The names are confusing. 64bit goes in the System32 folder, and the 32bit goes in SysWow64, which is the exact opposite of what you'd assume from the file naming.

I just went to the TSRE page http://koniec.org/tsre5/ and it loaded fine. Please see my post#7 for screenshots of the pages, OpenAl is also available there.

.

I agree. That's what we have here, on this site.

With the exception of MSTS itself, just about every file necessary for the ORTS game universe is on trainsim.com if you look for it in the file library.

There's also a growing list of tutorials with step by step instructions on how to install these tools.

Paul,
Are you trying to install TRSE to a PC w/o Inet connection? When it installs TRSE downloads files it needs.

Hi Eric, Thanks for that.

Will give it a try but usually hopeless with searches.

Thanks

Paul.

I have TSRE on my Windows 7 machine. I downloaded it and installed it on this Windows 11 piece of crap, then put it on an external hard drive and transferred it to the Windows 7 machine... worked fine.

Hi Charles.

TRSE Won't Install, It's asking for openAL32.dll which, when searching TrainSim search/Advanced Search Files comes up with No Search Results.

Thanks

Paul. (In Trouble Again)

Paul apologies for being impolite, --- Eric in his post said to search the library using the term "OpenAL" -- I just did that and guess what turned up...my grandmothers recipe for WW2 mayonnaise cake?

1 files match the search criteria.

Search Keywords: \\OpenAL\\

Search Keywords: "OpenAL" <<<< just enter --- no Advanced search

I just searched using openal ( no quotes, no caps ) and it works also. easy peasey -- just like my grandmother's mayo cake.

I can add the exact file name OpenAL32.dll to the description if that would make it easier for folks to find.

In one of my monthly articles, I mentioned adding a Bundles feature when we get up and running on the new software.

Based on a series of posts I've seen here over the last month, it looks like I'm going to have to have an essential pack for people installing OpenRails and TSRE for the first time that includes items like this.

If anyone is interested in writing a tutorial, feel free to create a post and I'll convert it to a 'How To' tutorial.

AND both versions of OpenAL are available at Index of /tsre5/data/openal/ (koniec.org) I got there by first going to Index of /tsre5/data (koniec.org) (Where one can download the current version of TRSE5.) and then clicking on the folder named "openal"

[rdayt]

TSRE can be ran as a stand alone program from a thumb drive.
It needs to be configured and uploaded like that.
It's even small enough that it doesn't need to be zipped. Put it in a folder and go.

Hi everybody.

Sorry guys, not sure this Is What I was looking for?

I can only open TSRE5 as far as a Menu Page which displays all my Routes listed. No options to go any further?

I was looking for A Train Consist builder that was better than ConBuilder.

Unless of course I'm doing something wrong again.

Thanks

Paul.

As pointed out in post #2 of this thread, you have to access the TSRE-CE via a Batch file named ConsistEditor.bat. Which is provided when TSRE installs.

Thaks Charles, I will try and find it.

Paul.

Hey paul. The base file you are looking for is TSRE-5 0.69.zip. This contains everything needed except OpenAl. After that you can download the most recent TSRE-5 exe which is version TSRE5_v0.7.012.exe. Once downloaded right click on consisteditor ( the batch file) and click edit and change the version from 0.69 to TSRE5_v0.7.012.exe. Hope this helps

Paul,
Pete Willard created a Manual for TSRE that includes the CE, You can download it from here: TSRE5-Document/book.pdf at master · pwillard/TSRE5-Document · GitHub The CE portion begins about page 105
