Converting my old MSTS seaview activities to run better on Open Rails.

[jdgremsjr]

It doesn't seem that long ago, but almost 18 years ago, I created a series of Seaview activities for MSTS. after trying to play a few of them on Open Rails, I notices multiple errors. I was wondering if it would be worth the time and effort to modify these so they are playable?

the file ID include 71680, 70507, 70474, and 71495. I still have a machine I've dedicated to running only MSTS on running windows 7 so, it hasn't been a priority to me. But, if there is enough interest I have been thinking about correcting the errors for Open Rails and posting a separate OR version. Please let me know if my efforts would be appreciated or in vain. Thanks.

I certainly appreciate it when activities are reworked or updated for Open Rails, especially if it can be done by the original author.

My vote would be yes.

It is appreciated, not just for Seaview but any Activities for any Routes to be updated. If the original author doesn't do it would it be wrong to post a rewrite that someone else did, noting it's not by the original author, thus an unofficial update?

If the activities will be reworked it is very much appreciated! Unfortunately, it's pointless for me to update the only activity I ever wrote for Sea View (a train full of mangoes), as it used Jonathan Fox's steam locomotives pack, which has not been available since his website was hacked many years ago.

Once, I'm done with the EOL with windows 10 here at work I will get busy updating my activities.
