Whatever happened to the PRR East V2?

[Procopius]

There used to be a huge route called PRR East Coast something or other. One reason I want to use OR is for that route, but a quick search of the MSTS and OR libraries doesn't find it. Has it gone out of business? When I quit playing MSTS five or so years ago it was still being developed.

Am a newbie here and very frustrated trying to get routes for NEC or New Haven line. Each download has a problem - some mine but this prr-east-v2-install.zip download here downloads OK but stops on extracting with an error. Have tried on different PC's but seems to be a corrupt file which is a shame.

good morning Expat, what does the error code say? if you could attach it, will give more information to help you.

Thank you lumberman! It says error 0x80004005

thank you for reaching out to the Microsoft Community. I am here to help and provide assistance with any questions or concerns you may have.

You're absolutely right! The error code 0x80004005 often indicates an issue with permissions, even if you're logged in with an administrator account.

You need to take ownership of the folder you are trying to copy to. Let's try this:

1. Right-click the folder you're trying to copy files from.
2. Go to Properties -> Security tab.
3. Click Advanced.
4. Next to "Owner", click Change.
5. Type your administrator account name and click Check Names. Click OK.
6. Check the box "Replace owner on subcontainers and objects".
7. Click Apply and OK to close all windows.
8. Try copying the files agai

hope this helps.

I just downloaded the installation file and when I attempted to unzip it with winRAR I got the following error message:

! C:\Users\frlis\OneDrive\Desktop\PRR V2.0\prr-east-v2-install.zip: Checksum error in C:\Users\frlis\OneDrive\Desktop\PRR V2.0\prr-east-v2-install\PRR-EAST-V2-INSTALL\PRR-EAST-V2-INSTALL.exe. The file is corrupt
! C:\Users\frlis\OneDrive\Desktop\PRR V2.0\prr-east-v2-install.zip: The archive is corrupt

I downloaded the file a second time and got the same results.

I got the same thing when I tested the download installation last night

I thought someone, I think Vince was his name, went in and cleaned this route up. Fixed all the errors people kept getting. Didn't he then package it all back up and upload it as a update? It was just a pain for me. Some places on the route kept crashing the sim.

Vince did a lot of the final work on V2 and was also working on his LIRR.

I'm away from my install until tomorrow, but will look to see what worked for me on unzipping it.

I already have the Route, installed in 2019, but I redownloaded the .zip and when attempting to open the current zip I to get the same problem. Somehow that file got corrupted. 

Don't have the original zip on this computer so have to check my XP and backups.

Good evening.

I ran the .exe file (PRR-EAST-V2-INSTALL.exe) from prr-east-v2-install.zip (ID 84624) without any issues, and no error warnings appeared.

It should be noted that:
1 - This route was designed as a "mini-route" and must be installed as such.
2 - The prr-east-v2-install.zip file dates from April 11, 2019; subsequently, the file prr_east_reg-2.zip appeared on TrainSim.com (dated November 12, 2020), labeled "PRR_EAST_REG-2 TSRE5 FIX. PRR_EAST_REG-2 sigcfg.dat fix TSRE5 FIX 2020-11-11 - original backup and copy test only.".
.
I have not tested the route myself, nor have I ever used the prr_east_reg-2.zip file.
Both of these files are still available in the File Library.
I hope this information helps.
Best regards.

Hi, Geary:
My mistake, my apologies; it's ID 84625. Eyesight plays tricks on me as I get older.
