I AM A PREMIUM ACESS SUBSCRIBER OF TRAINSIM.
SOME WEEKS AGO ALL THE ELECTRIFIED ROUTES (AND ONLY THEM) BOTH LOADED FROM ORIGINAL CD'S OR DOWNLOADED FROM TRAINSIM DIDN'T WORK AND APPEARS THE MESSAGE: "BAD REGION ERROR - PARENT POINTS INDICATOR DOES NOT EXIST" AND THE MSTS IS ABORTED.
CAN ANYONE WITH SIMILAR EXPERIENCE HELP ME? THANKS IN ADVANCE.

I used to get it when I had too many consists in the consists folder. MSTS gets a bit unstable when you get more than about 600 and it's likely your new CD's have tipped that over the edge. Try using Trainstore, that might fix it.

MANY CONSISTS (more than 1,000) CREATE THE ERROR MESSAGE.
TRAINSTORE FIXED IT EASILY. THANKS.
