Ali. I have downloaded and installed the very latest version of your activity and it's still missing the SWT 421.

Best regards

Oh great! That brings the activity to a screaming halt. That particular 421 requires the EB loco as a base for the repaint and there's no way that I'm ever going to by another Europeanbahn product.
I think you need to create version 1.3 of the activity with the CD version or with the static consist removed.

Or you could simply replace the static consist using Conbuilder...

To be honest guys, this activity is in the past now.

It now tells you what you need to make it work.

It fine.

If you dont have WCW, you dont have WCW.

Simple as.

Well. Activity completed. I had to edit the .act file to change the class 421. Anyways, it's a good activity and it highlights how good the route is. One point though. And it's not a critisism as such but the amount and placing of the static consists could have been better. What I mean is that having seven static consists in Wimbledon sidings is going to play havoc on anyones frame rates, especially those without the bin patch. Not only that but, are you actually going to see all those consists as you pass by. Another static placement was at Strawberry Hill. There is a consist in the shed but you cannot see it from your train or even on the external view. I only spotted it because I hit #7 instead of the #6 key and saw the number floating above the shed. Oh, and where was that pesky class 421?
Anyways Ali. As I said, it's not critisism. I really enjoyed the activity and it is one I will drive again (once I delete some of those statics)

Now to have a crack at Desiro Rescue.

Best regards

derailed

Post by 24FEB »

Ahhhhh, I seems to have the same problem.

I was hacking on my way down to winchester in a crompton, and suddenly my train derailed into an oncoming train! No points, or anything!

Does anyone know what causes this?

Sounds very much like a bounding box problem with one of your stock items. Have you maybe swapped something for an older Class 47 model?
