Did you download the Readme first file? It explains all in there.

yes i did try again and again and again and again... and yes i did.. it said

''Once all 12 files have been downloaded place the SC.zip file into a temp dir. Extract SC1.zip to SC11.zip to the directory you placed SC.zip into. Now open SC.zip with Winzip 8.1 or later and extract. This will create the Scottish Central folder in your routes folder.''

but it dont see to want to work... Just downloading agian as i have shut my PC down and restarted (which sometimes helps) and will see what happens.

I've got problems with SC4.zip. Repeated downloads only come up with corrupted file message. All the others are OK.

Any offers?

Replying to my own post above I gave it one last chance and downloaded to desktop instead of a Scottish Central folder I had made and bingo, all appears well.

I've had the same problems as Mr Ward. After repeated attempts I have consigned all 12 files to the WPB

Readme file has been updated. I wasn't aware that the filenaming of UKTS_9933_SC.zip caused a problem. Simply rename that file to SC.zip and then carry on with the installation instructions.

I've been on MSN for the last hour or so with a couple of people, then noticed this topic. Did the rename and hey presto.

It's nothing to get flustered about Peter. :wink:

Sorry if it sounded as if I was stating the obvious but before now I have been helped by someone telling something I already knew but hadn't applied.
Pity about all your trouble but now I know how to instal it when I get round to it - Now doesn't that make you feel a whole lot better???????

Cobos,
Congratulations on creating a superb route! (Y) I've not had much time yet to explore everything, but I downloaded all parts during my lunch hour today (don't tell my boss! :o ), had no problems installing the route, once I remembered how to install spanned zips correctly! I can't wait to have a look in AE later this evening, to see if I can knock out a couple of steam activities.
Brilliant job! Highly recommended! :D

The "Northern Lights" activity has a problem which causes the crash. The "RouteID" value in the .act file is incorrect - it should be Scottish_Central. Explore mode should work OK.

Ah something for Mike to update in Route Riter, if he can. When duplicating a route to another name in Route Riter I guess it doesn't look at the activities.
