[matrix358]

Heya - this is just a quick question really!

I've been looking at the london to southhampton route for a while now, it looks really good, im just not sure if its worth the download? Does anyone else have it and can they tell me if its worth it?
I mean it looks great but seen as its a beta, i was wondering if I should just hang on for a bit?

Daft question but thats just me really! lol - cheers anywayz! Advice would be gr8t!

Not sure what the scenery situation with this route is.

Hi
Yes the scenery is a little sparse...but the trackwork is supurb and it is an excellent route....if you want to run south coast EMUs...I can only speak for myself ...but yes I really enjoy it.....Oh and Southampton station is finished and looks great.
Cheers

Hi
Welcome to the forums.
There is probably a batch file called 'install.bat' that must be run (by double clicking it) before the route will work.
This copies files from the six default routes.

Don't bother with it as the route was never finished, your best bet is Dorset Coast,that is complete and will take you from Waterloo to Weymouth via Southampton,and also the Waterloo to Windsor/Reading Lines also from Basingstoke to Reading and Basingstoke to Yeovil Junc,Woking to Portsmouth,and a lot of various branches,IE Eastliegh -Romsey Salisbury,St Denys to Havent.

To be honest, I would goto the CD ordering page and order DC3 and then get the updates to V6.

If you wish to go ahead with London-Southampton, we need to know what the problem is with the platform kits - any error messages or what is the problem?

The instructions to install the platform kits are contained in the kits and quite plain to read.


As far as I recall some files go in a global folder and some get put into the route itself. As I said - it is all in the readme.
