Have you tried opening it with Wordpad or failing that the free Word Viewer from the Microsoft website?david1 wrote:Just downloaded the route, but is there any chance the author could upload the installation instructions in PDF format, as I can not open the read me document as I do not have the lastest version of Office, I have an old version from years ago which suits my needs and have no intention of buying another copy from Microsoft on a monthly subscription.
Rename the .docx document to .zip, which will open in Windows, and read the .xml version of the readme in that. Not the easiest of reads as you'll also have all the formatting information, but you'll get the gist of things. Alternatively use an on-line conversion service such as http://document.online-convert.com/david1 wrote:Just downloaded the route, but is there any chance the author could upload the installation instructions in PDF format, as I can not open the read me document as I do not have the lastest version of Office, I have an old version from years ago which suits my needs and have no intention of buying another copy from Microsoft on a monthly subscription.
No need, just use this:david1 wrote:Just downloaded the route, but is there any chance the author could upload the installation instructions in PDF format, as I can not open the read me document as I do not have the lastest version of Office, I have an old version from years ago which suits my needs and have no intention of buying another copy from Microsoft on a monthly subscription.
What about those who don't have any version of MS Office installed?pctech wrote:Simples.

Welcome to Devon Rails!
PLEASE READ THIS VERY CAREFULLY TO GET THE MOST OUT OF THE ROUTE!
The route has DTG’s Riviera Line at its heart, but extends the experience to Plymouth, Bristol, Exmouth and Axminster. There’s reasonably full scenery to Plymouth and Topsham, partial scenery to Exmouth and Tiverton Parkway, and so far just sparse content onwards to Bristol and Axminster. We’ll fill in the missing detail in due course, as well as extending the rails to Barnstaple and Calstock.
You will therefore absolutely need to have the Riviera Line installed for this to work. For an acceptable experience you’ll also need to have DTG’s Brighton Main Line and scenery packs, Just Trains’ Western Main Lines and Bristol to Exeter routes, DP Simulation’s Barnstaple to Exeter, and the UKTS community scenery packs. For the best experience you’ll need all the other assets listed below, but it’ll probably work pretty well with just those above. Please also make sure you have the Class 43 Reskins from UKTS, ID 35072

I'd certainly love that Meldon model John! I've just reached Yeoford in the route's next iteration and plan to go to Okehampton next, so your timing is excellent.johny wrote:Which is still the truncated spur as in the Riviera Line. DP's Barnstaple to Exeter is referenced, the addition of which I guess is for the future. If the author is contemplating doing the Southern mainline via Okehampton and Tavistock, I have a single span model of Meldon viaduct (6 spans make up the whole) which I am prepared to pass on to him.deltic009 wrote:Sounds nice, the route north west out of Exeter will be the Barnstaple line and the southern route via Meldon to Plymouth.
John
We've noted that fault and have corrected it in v 1.01. I'm just finishing off the Meldon line and we'll then publish it with the snags we know about corrected and the lines to Meldon and Bere Alston added (without much scenery though!).crosscountry wrote:Brilliant route... looks fantastic.
However I wonder if anyone else is having signal issues. On approach to Totnes I get a red at the three aspect signal which does not change. I don't have to tab past the signal which makes me wonder whether there's a missing asset or the signal is set up wrong
