In answer to your question about the Q1: it's fine and I have it running in two scenarios on the S&D. Ugly but nice! I'll get the other stock sorted out and let you know if the other scenarios run OK, and I'll try na IHH Brittania instead of the 5XP
And good morning Jim,
I downloaded IoW last week and there was a choice of a Rail Sim or Railworks versions. Did you pick the Railworks? I thought I'd ask just in case,

Regards, John.
Hi John
Glad you got the Q1 up and running. Re: IOW - I did pick Railworks and all my IOW scenarios work fine. I'll just have to keep working on Bob's route when time permits. Hopefully I'll get there!
Regards
Jim

Hello Bob,
I've ran through all the 14+1 scenarios and, as well as the +1 Q1 failing to load, I have missing GWR stock from 5 others. I think that the missing stock is in the GWR freeware from DP Simulation and I'll use RWTools to loacte and add it to the scenarios. The biggest problem is the Paper Mills Shuffle because it will not load either, the reason being a missing marker? How do I get it into the scenario? It tells me which siding, longitude and latitude and the marker number, any ideas? I could uninstall and re-install but I will loose all the stock I've already added to the scenarios, and a re-install may not solve the problem. The other files you suggested resolved the missing LT stock,

Regards, John.

Hello Jimmy, Bob and John

I don't know if it helps any but I just loaded the Q1 for Pete's sake scenario for the first time in TS 2012, and it loads and runs w/o problems, just as it was running fine before in RW, RW2 etc.
Cheers

Thanks Jos.

I'm wondering whether there's a subtle difference between the original wagons pack and those now available? :-?

I've loaded up the Paper Mills Shuffle and it works fine on my version. By all means post up details of where the marker issue occurs and we can try and sort it out, although why a marker would have gone awol is a mysetry as well!

Cheers

Bob

Same here Bob. John has had some problems with missing markers lately; I have had no such problems. And btw, I use the latest version of the wagons pack. Will let you know my experiences with Leafy under TS 2012 conditions...so far so good. Do I understand you correctly that you are going to work on updating the route to TS2012? Would be nice, it is indeed a wonderful route and one of my favorites. :D

Hi

Work on the route is 'on hold' rather than being cancelled although at the rate I'm (not) going it's more than likely that it will have to be TS2013 ready by the time any more is released. :(

Thanks for your kind words. It's nice to know that the route is still appreciated.

Cheers

Bob

Hi

Completely off-topic, but I've been sent this link. :o

So here's another scenario I think I'll have to do something about when I get around to it. :)

Just an update. I found Leafy Suburbs version 1 on another hard drive I have so I loaded it and I can play about half of the scenarios in it. If I load v1 & v2 together or v2 on its own, I get SBHH. It only seems to load ok on v1.

Hi

Sorry to hear you're still having hassles. Have you tried running things through RW Tools to see if there's anything that stands out as a problem?

I really can't make any sense out of why V2 isn't working for you. :(

Cheers

Bob

Hi Bob
This is a copy of my original post on this topic:
I'm trying to get the Leafy Suburbs route by Hertsbob to work. I've done the following without success:
Installed all the extra files listed for the route.
Deleted the blueprints.
Verified the game cache twice.
Checked for missing stock/assets with RW tools (all ok).
Ran with TSX on and off.
Tried loading via 'Drive by Route' and 'Editor'.
Uninstalled and reinstalled Railworks via Steam.
After all this, ALL the scenarios (approx 15) in the route come up with 'SBHH'-I can't get past the loading screen.

Bob and Jim,
I hope this is my last word on Leafy Suburbs and problems with the scenarios. I have spent ALL afternoon going through every scenario with RWTools and two things stood out. Firstly, just about every scenario has a 5XP Jubilee in it and as I haven't invested in this add on pack the scenario failed to load. Secondly, I installed the GWR Wagon Pack 1 and most scenarios failed to load because they could not find the wagons even though they are there! On reading the instructions very carefully it says to install the wagons and then the upgrade. When I installed them it was together using the pacakge manager. I uninstalled both of them, then installed the wagon pack, then installed the upgrade and kept my fingers crossed. Then I used RWTools to sub the 5XP. I opened Railworks and every scenario worked including the Paper Mill Shuffle which told me last time that there were missing markers. So, that's me sorted. I don't know if this helps you Jim but I hope it might. And Bob, nice route now that I've got it all working including the For Pete's Sake scenario, though I may have to change the Q1 to BR instead of Southern!

Regards, John.

Hi

That's an amazing amount of effort you've put in to suss this out. :o Thanks!

I can't imagine for a moment how you've ended up with Jubilees in all the scenarios. I'm sure I didn't put them there. Surely I'm not that dim, or perhaps I am. :roll: :drinking:

The Southern Q1 was supposed to be numbered K99, but I couldn't get a K. :lol:

Glad you've finally got things working, and thanks again.

Bob

Hi John
I uninstalled the GWR wagon packs and reinstalled them the way you did but it's still the same. If I load Leafy Suburbs versions 1 & 2 I get SBHH and if I load version 2 only, I get SBHH and I can't load any scenarios, but if I load version one only,it loads and I can play about half of the scenarios in it. I can't find any logical reason why this should happen-no missing stock anywhere.
