    TSRER activity editor help (or lack there of)

    I Keep hearing that TSRE5 has an activity editor but for the life of me i can't figure out how to use it or if there even is an activity editor with TSRE5.

    So could someone kindly set me straight on this issue?

    Hi...

    It works but it’s a work in progress and it definitely crashes a bunch on me... You need to create your consists and paths externally.... I use TSRE Consist Editor and ORTS Track Viewer for these tasks... I seem to get a bunch of crashes most often when I go back to edit activities I previously built... To build the simplest - just go into the service editor and create a player service - it’s actually pretty similar to MSTS... When you exit the Service Editor - just make sure you select the service in the parent menu... Save and exit...

    Regards,
    Scott

      Guess i'll have to check back once Goku works all the bugs out of it. ^^;

      Though it sounds like the OR Track Viewer is pretty easy to use. Then again, i guess anythings better then the nightmare that was the MSTS activity editor! XD

      Anyways. Thanks for the help Scott!

            Did you see this guide?
            1. Downloading TSRE Latest version is always here: http://koniec.org/tsre5/data/?C=M;O=D For example, download: http://koniec.org/tsre5/data/TSRE5_v0.6932.exe If you have 32 bit Windows (usually old computer), download: http://koniec.org/tsre5/data/TSRE5x32_v0.693.exe Installing TSRE: Run EXE...

                Is there a more specific explanation of how you get TSRE to register an AI-service?
                So far I have been following the guide step-by-step. After creating the player service I make a traffic file, then I go to services and make a new service, which I then include in the traffic file.
                The problem is that the "This" box is not ticked in the service editor, and no matter how many times I save and restart the program I can not get it to register it. I see in the video that the hungarian guy had the same problem.
                It is a bit frustrating because a lot of the models I am using are specifically made for OR, meaning that if I try to create the same services in the MSTS Activity Editor, I will get countless of errors resulting in a full crash.

                  Hi Marc,

                  I’ve used the activity editor quite a bit... The easiest way to get it to work is create all your services first - then create the traffic file... Click the add button in the traffic editor - it puts a blank service line with a time of 00:00 then select the service and set the time for that line... If - after you save the activity you need to make changes - don’t try editing the existing traffic file - just create a new one... It doesn’t seem to like mods... It’s not a finished product - it crashes a bunch whenever I try to mod activities...

                  Regards,
                  Scott

                    Hi Scott.
                    Thank you for your reply. I will try messing around with it a little bit more.

                      If you edit existing traffic file, you have to reselect it in activity menu. Otherwise activity traffic data won't be updated.

                        Hi Goku,

                        Hah - - - LOL - - - that may be a missing piece to the puzzle - I've noticed none of my updates to traffic files ever seem to show in the sim - I'll give that a try - thanks so much !
