When this activity is loading im getting a error msg, that the activity requires a common sound file for the 402 turbo star, which puzzles me as its not in the stock list in the read me for the activity.
Also i did a search for the sound file but could not find it, does anyone know the ukts file number for the sound file, Thanx.

Its sound files are used by the 165/166 and you can find it in the MSTS 1.2 patch.

The Turbo doesnt use a 'Common.Sound' file, so im not sure why this is occuring.

However I am in the process of updating a few minor aspects of the trains and will look out for any odd occurances.

I believe it is this one as the readme asks you to create a "Turbo" folder in the common sound to where the eng. file is pointing to.

Also you need the SD40 update fom the Microsoft site. And I have just found that the thread below "A train needed" is referring to the same thing.

Thanx, DOC for the advice that cured the sound problem :) but im having problems running this activity, the problems start about 4 mins from Paddington, when the scenery and objects keep changing in a mater of seconds, and on of the objects (looks like a house ) as the train gets close to it the screen flashes then the house is the same distance away all the time, the just after that the activity frezzes, have tried it on the lowest settings with the same results.

Have run both activities (Bristol - Paddington and back) without problems.

Try running it through RR or, uninstall/reinstall. (the activity, I mean).:)

Thanx for the help and advice, i had no problems with Bristol to Paddington, it was the return journey that was the problem, but i managed to complete it in the end, by saving and restarting.
But after leaving Reading had no problems.
Going to try Bristol to Paignton now.
