Have put NWC in computer, P4 3.0 and 2GB Ram, also X1950 PRO. Keep getting messages saying "SERVICE 1K38 IS OUT OF DATE. PLEASE RE-SAVE IN ACTIVITY EDITOR". I am running Bin Patch, Train Store. I have patch 5 on disk.
I have reduced sounds, settings etc, still to no avail. Please excuse my ignorance, how do I save it in Activity Editor etc?
Any help will be much appreciated.

Many Thanks in advance.

Cheers

this is a known issue, and although it is fairly straight forward to solve on your own, a fix will be included in patch 6, hopefully out later this week

Hi Baily9531, I have just started doing the Activities on the NWC V1.05 and got into some bother near the start in 0F21.
I have reversed upto the R.Pt and started to move forward to take the track to the right, there are two ground signals on the trackside between the points turning right and the mainline and the bottom one goes green while the upper stays red and so I SPAD that one.
I have tried again even going quickly to get to the R.Pt. before the AI Train going to Chester gets by, this time I get a RED signal as I go forward, I stop until it passes and I get a Green signal to proceed but everytime I get Spadded at the upper signal no matter how long I wait.
Tried 0V82 and was met with the same problem but there was no AI traffic visible.
Can you explain what I must do to get round these problems.

Bob

Hi Bob, this is a known issue and a fix will be in Patch 6, its not an activity problem, but a route signalling one.

Hi Baily9531, thanks for your reply, I've managed to do the Activity by accelarating through the ground signal, lost my speed limit for a while but regained it later on.
