Timetable and Winter.................

[HookitandBookit]

I can not seem to be able to get winter conditions driving a timetable, single activities works just fine but as soon as im on a timetable no winter. Can anyone confirm and maybe shed some light on how to get winter conditions driving a timetable?

Mystery has been solved, having a "weatherfiles" folder in your route folder will override whatever weather you set. Next question is; Does anyone have a weatherfiles folder that contains winter weather?

Don't know, do not have any "weatherfiles" folders in my installation of OR nor in any of my Routes, and they all work fine in all seasons and weather. Only have the MSTS "ENVFILES" folder in the routes, but I believe they are not used unless you check the option to use 'MSTS environments'. ( could be wrong on that ).

Edit - Checked two routes of interest, Cima which was designed for Summer only running and the TS Starter route for OR ( BNSF Scenic ). Both have the ENVFILES folder and in the .trk file for each they have the following listed:

Does the route you are having issue with have the folder and these listed?

The weatherfiles folder is specific to timetables: 12.2.5. Weather files


Weather files, a feature exclusive to timetable mode, orchestrate changes in the cloud cover, precipitation, and visibility factors over the course of the timetable day. They are located in a special WeatherFiles subdirectory of the route’s folder and they have the *.weather-or file extension. The player activates a weather file by selecting it from the timetable mode section of the main menu; this overrides the static weather condition.

Since i am driving trains in an area with harsh winter and snow what i need is a weatherfiles folder that has winter weather. I have not seen that anywhere so i figured maybe someone in here knows if there is any in existence.

Okay, I haven't been running anything in timetable mode, so not familiar with this.
