Quote from JT: If you installed service pack 4 prior to 10pm Thursday 24th March and you are experiencing issues with missing objects and stations. We advise that you uninstall your existing version and then reinstall the software again as that will solve the problem. Apologies for the inconvenience...

Has the fact that you've found *missing* assets left your installation in a crippled state?

Or is it sloppy reading?...

Does my installation have to be crippled before I point out that there are files missing???

Sloppy reading by whom????

gptech - I know how to suck eggs and I also know that RW_Tools cannot see files inside .ap files and so reports them as "missing". If I didn't know that I would have posted a much longer list! chrisonline - No. I don't run RW_Tools "just for the hell of it". You have your way of using RW_Tools and I...

Just uninstalled the extension and then the route and then reinstalled the new files for the route and the extension. RW_Tools tells me that the following files are missing (along with a few decals and a load of files in the RailSimulatorUS .ap file): \Assets\JustTrains\GreatWestern\Scenery\Building...

I tried it in GE2 and it wouldn't run so I tried it in the original GE (with patches). It wouldn't run there either but, on checking, there was a broken path. After I fixed that it ran okay.

Rather than removing all routes and adding them back one at a time (if you end up going that way), just remove half of them and that will tell you which half the offending item is in. Then split the "bad" half in two again, etc. It's a lot quicker than one at a time.

Thanks for the latest version of the route. Everything extracted and installed smoothly.

I'm missing a couple of assets. Any clues as to where to find them?

Assets\Brendan\IrishRail\Stations\Abandoned Platform_D.bin
Assets\Developer\Addon\Scenery\Procedural\NC_Fence_2_Concrete.bin

Your understanding is correct. If you start an AI train in a section of track that has a 15 mph speed limit, it will only run at 15 mph for the rest of its journey. It's an MSTS bug and as far as I know the only "solution" is to not start AI trains in track where there is a low speed limit.

Now that I am finally able to run this route (after an 84 hour download on non-premium), it is amazing. We spent some time on Pickering station last July wandering around while waiting for our train and the detail in Andy's version is fantastic, even down to the backwards E in LNER on the water cran...

Perhaps we're more than "a few weeks away".

Is this route available anywhere else? Four days to download it at dial-up speed is a long time.

Yes, it's a bit of a strange one. AMD keeps wanting to update my 6870 drivers, so I let it. After the "update" I'm still on the same version! That's been happening about once a month for the last few months. I believe the version of the drivers that I have is the latest and last one specifically for...

I'm running MSTS on an AMD Radeon HD 6870 under Windows 10 with all the latest updates. The driver is 15.201.1151.1008 dated 4/11/2015 and, as far as I know is the latest for that card.

I applied the fix a while ago. I just tried it now and MSTS still runs, as do the Editors and Tools.

Of course it works when run for the right reason----read my test results again and you'll see it reverted both edited instances of a loco back to default, and reinstated a deleted .ap archive. The only issue it has is in it's reporting/detection of the state of those two .ap archives. Given that yo...

Of course it's relevant that you're using verify for the wrong reason---if you don use it there isn't a problem!! Unless you have a serious problem causing the game not to run there's absolutely no reason to verify the game; to receive updates all you need to do is log on to Steam. That's faulty lo...
