and you are doing a good job too. if i wanted to install the L2S route in the mean time and i have installed it and everything and downloaded the stock for the virgin trains activity, how do i select that activity? once i have dragged and dropped the activity files onto the msts utility then is it self explanitory? about to do it and unsure if it will work as the L2S route is not appearing on the routes list yet, its still the original 5 or 6 routes you get with msts

There's probably an instllme.bat file that needs to be run in the route directory; run it!

Cheers,
Herbert

See http://forums.uktrainsim.com/viewtopic. ... ht=fgw+166 and follow the links. There is a link on the top right of each forum page called "search" - that sometimes yields useful information.

Kindest regards

the 166 isnt available. Surely everyone know's that.

Some people they buy MSTS and ask question's like theres no tomorrow. we do pride in helping but we draw a line.

thanks for the HELPFUL posts in here, will not having the 166 affect the running of the Virgin Trains activities?

For Cartic-4 see http://forums.uktrainsim.com/viewtopic. ... ght=cartic The cartics are still on the NWE 2.1 CD as far as I know.

Can't help with the others at the moment.

Kindest regards

Neil

I think Salopian Growler's right - I've just answered this question in another duplicate thread! (which is a breach of forum rules I think) Why are you posting the same question twice?
