Dorset coast problem

Post by rosschris10 »

hi again

downloaded the 4 files for the dorset coast

winzipped them all copied all the folders to my msts routes folder

then clicked the install button that opens up the windows dos black window and does its magic

tried to run the route and get error saying

failed to open texture file

routes\Dorset\envfiles\textures\UKskylow.ace

i then read the help file and turned the sky textures off but when i tried to run it again i get another error

failed to open texture file
routes\Dorset\envfiles\sun.ace

where can i find this file as i thought i had everything when i downlaoded the 4 route files

Hi Chris.

If you have not sorted out your permissions problem, the installme.bat file may not work properly till you have.

Sort out your Permissions problem (as advised on your other thread) then run the installme.bat again :)

Mark.

I have checked the Dorset readme and the only required file is UKFineScale track and the latest Tsection.dat, no mention of UK roads, newroads etc. if the route is working OK without throwing up any missing road piece errors it should be OK.

Hi

The Vehicles do show up, but it depends if you have altered the settings to get Dorset Coast to work, did you turn your sliders down from best graphics to best performance? also it could be a resource problem especially between Waterloo and Clapham Junction.

As a point of interest, I ran Dorset coast last night with OpenRails on maximum graphics and sound quality, The lowest frame rate I got on the Waterloo to Clapham Junction section was 24fps with no juddering, (the average was much higher) I was quite impressed :D
