Loco Search please?

[pcohen]

Good Afternoon everybody, the Nuisance here again.

I am having trouble yet again finding Rollong Stock. Must be me!

Have spent some time this Morning trying to locate the following Two Loco's:-

"MT_SWTClass_458 & Southern_456007" but having no luck at all!

Any help with this please?

Many thanks

Paul.

Hi Paul,

Southern 456007 is in the F/L here: https://www.trainsim.com/forums/file...leid?fid=20378

I could not find "MT_SWTClass_458". The only things I could find that come close are "MT_DB_SWT_450001" and "MT_DB_SWT_450015" (folder names). Both are part of the Siemens Desiro Pack by Making Tracks which can be downloaded from the TSSH downloads page. The link is https://www.dropbox.com/s/csm29okd4s...U3%29.exe?dl=0

Hi Paul,
Southern_456007 is, probably, file ID 20378
There are several SWT Class 458s in the library, most based on a model by Dave Babb (= MT = Making Tracks). What is the number of the 458 you are looking for?

You can search for yourself, using 'Description', 'Simulator' MSTS, 'Region' United Kingdom, 'keywords' SWT, 'and' 458. I got 12 hits, some of which are activities and some stock.

Cheers,
Ged

Hi Uli. thank you for your reply.

Ged (slipperman) has also come up with some Ideas.

Many thanks

Paul.

Hi Ged, thanks for your reply.

I have been experimenting with your MSTS_ActMan.

I have Southern_456007 but your MSTS_ActMan only lists

MT_SWTClass_458 Is present but not used with no running No.

Hope this Is right.

Many thanks

Paul

Hi Paul,
Sorry, but only you can tell whether it's right or not!

If ActMan is telling you that MT_SWTClass_458 is not used, then you must have selected "Stock not used by any acts". If so, why are you saying it's missing?

What activity are you wanting to run? - please give file ID, if possible.

Cheers,
Ged

Hi Ged, sorry, there Is no way I would have selected:-

"Stock not used by any acts". I would have no reason to!

However, I have been using your programme ACT-MAN to check my dorset Coast Actvity and wonder please, If you would have a look at the following Log File please?

It Is showing the Following Stock as Faulty although I have all three Items Installed.

MT_SWTClass_458 Class460_GEX Southern_456007

Many thanks or your help.

Hi Paul,
As far as I can see, it's NOT reporting that the stock is missing.
It is reporting that the required sounds cannot be found - Networker sounds, file ID 4688, should be in the common.sound folder.

You are also missing the folder DB_SC_377 from your TRAINSET folder. This was included in the EB London Brighton Express payware route.
This requirement is shown in the readme for file ID 6271 (Class 360 GEX).

Cheers,
Ged

Hi Ged, Many thanks

Much appreciated thank you.

Paul.

Hello again Ged, Guess what, I have done It again.

Having Installed your last two Files as Instructed I am now back at the stage where the Two Gatwick Express
Train's front and rear Units approaching and coming from Clapham Junction Station are doing somersaults again.

Sure the last Two Files are not responsible,

This has happened before but cannot remember the Cure.

Many thanks

Paul.

Hi Paul,
Yes, mate, it is a problem with the shape file!
I remember creating a fix for it so, please leave it with me - I hope to find it soon!

Cheers,
Ged

[slipperman]

Hi Paul,
Please unpack the attached .zip file and copy files Class460L.s and Class460D.s into folder Class460_GEX in your TRAINSET folder, allowing overwrites.

Cheers,
Ged

Your programme MSTS_ActMan tells me that I require the following Train

"MT_SWTClass_458" But I cannot locate It anywhere.

A more Important Question Is please:-

I am currrently running as an experiment, the same MSTS SETUP on my Desktop Computer and my nearly new Laptop.

My question Is please:-

why can I complete an MSTS Activity fully/nonstop without any Errors or crashes on my Laptop but have such problems with my main Computer?

The Computer Contains an AMD Ryzen 5 3600 6 Core Processor a 6GB Graphics card & 7.51TB Storage.

And the Laptop contains AMD Ryzen 5 7535HS With 4GB Radeon Graphics & 477 GB Storage.

This Is just a curiosity on my part.

Many thanks again.

Paul.

Hi Paul,
Your first question, regarding the Class_458. You have not included the Open Rails log, but when you mentioned the same problem on 21 Jan, you did include the log! That report DOES NOT show that the Class_458 is missing, but its sounds ARE missing. These are the Networker sounds I mentioned earlier - you need to install them! (file ID 4688).

Your second question regarding installations on two separate PCs. If the installations are identical, then they should both run the same. However, I suggest that you might not have installed all the required sounds in each!!

Cheers,
Ged

Hi Ged, many thanks.

now have this saved to my External Hard Drive.

But still cannot find the Loco that your ActMan tells me Is missing.

thanks

Paul.
