Good Morning, Paul,
As you seem to have got things working OK (touch wood!!), to avoid any confusion, I won't offer any further suggestions - until, maybe, the next time

Cheers,
Ged

Hi Ged, thanks again for your reply.

Going back to Post#43, would it be OK to delete Everything In the ORTSContent Folder, keeping the following

global, routes, sound, trains. As shown In Mervyn's Post#45.

Thanks

Paul.

Hi Paul,
Yes, mate, so long as you don't mean "everything"!!
Just delete the 1MSTS, Activities, ERA_Textures, TEMPLATE and UTILS folders together with the EBUsetup.sem file.

Cheers,
Ged

Hello all, after catching up on happenings in this thread, I have some comments. First of all, post #45 is not mine, that was from oper190, my tag is baldwin.

Ged, I may have the solution to the sound process problem with the Dorset Coast route. In the last log from Paul just before the crash report, there are four instances where the sound process is unable to parse the data. They are two ws files where the location data of the sound source is mangled. As these two files only hold three sound sources between them, deleting them should not have any bad effect on the route, in fact I have just checked my installed version and it does not have any world sound files, runs fine.
w-006048+014920.ws and w-006049+014918.ws are the two files.

Hi baldwin, apologies for name mix up.

Hello again Ged, sorry to be a pest.

In the ORTSContent Routes Folder apart from the default Routes and any Added Routes, should 1MSTS And ATracks be there?

Thanks

Paul.

[slipperman]

Hi Mervyn,
Thanks for that - I have two separate DC6 installations and both have 631 .ws files!
The two files you quoted have an error in the Position line (no space between the 2nd & 3rd values) which should be easily corrected as the files are not compressed.
I've just tested one of my installations in OR v1.6 but do not see any such errors in the log - maybe I need to travel on those areas? Do you know whereabouts they are in the route?

Regarding Paul's sound process problem, I believe he's seen it on at least one other route.

Cheers,
Ged

Hi everybody. Still looking for an answer to this please:-

"In the ORTSContent Routes Folder apart from the default Routes and any Added Routes, should 1MSTS And ATracks be In there please?"

Also a Couple of new Issues with this New ORTSContent setup please? I have re-installed the Thames Mersey route, However, although the Track Is there Most of the rest of the ground Scenery Is GREY.

Do I still use UK FineScale to remedy this and where under this new System do I put It please?.

thanks

Paul.

Hi Paul.
1MSTS does not belong in the ORTSContent folder. It is the old "heritage" MSTS. Atracks folder should be there, it contains track textures and track profiles. Don't worry about track profiles for now, just leave the Atracks folder where it is.

Thames Mersey is a route that requires textures from the default routes so it first needs to go into your MSTS routes folder, then run the installme.bat file. This will copy the required files. Once that is done you can move it back into the ORTSContent/Routes folder. It sounds complicated, but I can assure you it is not, just write down a list of the stages and follow it. If you can see the tracks, you do not need the UK Finescale set.

RE Dorset 6, Cannot say where in the route those sounds are yet. I will load it up into TSRE tomorrow and poke about to find them.

Hi Mervyn, thanks again for the reply.

I have 1MSTS In my routes Folder. Is this correct please.

Thanks

Paul.

[baldwin]

Hi Paul
No, 1MSTS does not belong in the routes folder, it should be out on its own where you can access it if needed.

Hi Mervyn, thanks again.

I now have the ORTSContent Folder with global, routes, sound & trains Inside and 1MSTS back in C:\1MSTS where It usually lives.

Thanks

Paul.
