LGVMed Problems

Post by beauchampboiler »

Hi,

I am recently installed the LGVMed route from railserve. The installation went fine and I can access the route in the editor. However, when I open the route in explore mode (I'm using TrainStore) all the options in the MSTS home screen are blanked out apart from Tutorials which is obviously useless. Does anyone know what's going on?

Also, what would you consider to be the 'best' MSTS Freeware routes? I already have the Dorset Coast V6, North-West England and Blackpool Tramway community CD's (which are fantastic by the way) as well as BrisCard. What others would you recommend?

Help with either of these points would be much appreciated

Thanks!

sounds like a path error you may need to create a new path for the route

Hi,

The easiest way is go to this web site actmsts.com,scrroll down till you get to LGVMed,download a activity froom there and down load and install it.

That should then set up activity which will include traffic, services, and most important a path,then all you need to find is some stock,there are a couple of actvities for TGV's on this site for that route.

Hi
to create a path if you ever want/need to you need to load up the route into activity editor then in the player service boxclick new thewn you should see another box open saying about consists and paths under the path header click new then you get a another window saying Path Name put in what ever you want it to be called and the same for what ever you want it to show up as then press ok on both box's then again in the starting location put in the the name of where your starting location and the ending location then now go to the starting location on the map and where you want to place a start point right click then select "place a start point" then if you want it to go in the opposite direction right click then select "toggle starting direction" then place an end point where you want it if not the path should go to the end of that line then click leave path editor and then when it asks to save path changes click yes then it should show up on train sim
