Scenic Sub?

[uli2]

Coming back to the new version of the OR Starter Route, I noticed they forgot to add the ditchlights in the .eng files of the two new GP38-2s. I have attached replacement .eng files with ditchlights added. They go into "...Trains\Trainset\SLI_BNSF_GP38".

Many thanks Uli

I installed the new version of the starter route and the cabview for the Amtrak 206 went back to the SLI original cabview. I fixed it by copy and pasting the backup Southwest Chief and P42 went back to normal! Hopefully one of you guys can update the content in Amtrak Empire Builder Trainset Folder for the starter to the DDS textures and up to date to the TS standards and P42DCs have the original nose headlight but have the bolt on nose which isn't correct and also to point out that rear numbers on the BNSF 4898 are wrong as they are labeled 4870! Sorry I have OCD and am particular about stuff and other than that, I really like that they did great on the starter route!

This has been fixed. I sent your message along the other day and it has been rectified

Does this mean the original will become a collectors item?

Thanks for sharing that information about the new Starter route using Scenic Sub V2 and newer rolling stock. I'm downloading it right now and will replace my 2006 version of the route... I was about to ask where I could find the 2011 version of the route somewhere, you answered my question!

Must say, for a route dating back to 13 years ago, it's held up pretty well for it's age. Even the stock too, many of which came with the initial V2 release that long ago.

I have a question about an activity with Scenic Sub Starter Route 2006 version.... I'm stuck at a red signal near the west end of the route with the double stack container train since about 45 minutes.... No train in sight and I'm on the siding passed Everett Station at about MP 27 westbound.... Is there a bug in the default activity? Usually after 5 minutes or so the train I'm waiting for to arrive comes by and the signal goes green and I proceed back on the main.... Anyone experienced that? I have the 3 Dash 9 as power, not at ES44AC. Thanks!

I agree. And swapping out for the AtracksDDS tracks takes a few more years off it.

I have a question about an activity with Scenic Sub Starter Route 2006 version....

To aid others in helping you, please provide name of activity, and attach Open Rails log txt file --- default location is desktop. Thanks.

Here is the name of activity as copied from the log file which is attached. As I said it's the first time it happens with this route. I'm nearing the end of a lonb trip so it's a bit frustrating to be stuck at this red signal for almost an hour...

Mode = Resume
Route = BNSF Scenic Sub (TrainSimulations.net - Starter Route)
Activity = BNSF Westbound Double Stack (C:\TrainSimulations\ROUTES\TS_StarterRoute\ACTIVI TIES\Westbound_Double_Stack.act)

[Royalhudson]

I tried to go back in time in the activity in my post above and came in slower to see if the bloody train would come up at the red signal while I was on the siding, but no change... No train comes by on the main I'm stuck at a red signal until the end of time.... Is this a bug in the activity? Kinda frustrating I was almost at the end of the activity....

[R. Steele]

I see in the log >>> UseLocationPassingPaths = False >>> try checking this box in Options/Simulations/Activity Options "Locations-Linked-Passing Path procressing". I leave it checked as my default. A little more sophisticated passing logic than the older MSTS logic. If you are running any new routes by TrainSimulations ( Mullan, Sp Shasta, etc, ) you should have it checked.

If I am in this position, I go to manual mode ( ctrl M ) hit the tab key and you should get a proceed indication, keep going.

If you want to know where you are I use the map ( ctrl 9 )

Your toshiba laptop is one year younger than mine!!

I don't have that version of the starter route, and nor do I have that activity.

I am running the westbound grain, which will be similar to the westbound container.

If you got to mile 27, you went beyond the end of the activity and reached the end of the route. The end of activity marker is just beyond mile 29, but it appears the marker is broken as it is set to have no effect when you activate it. Anyway, congrats on completing the activity.
