But I can't seem to install it. It keeps saying I've already got the latest version. Anyone know what I'm doing wrong?

You need to uninstall the old version first.

Thanks, installed now. Feel like a bit of an idiot.

Hi

Beware

I'm getting complete failure to load ( like the 1.5.9 patch did)

Cheers

Cheers

Doesn't work either for me. Just uninstalled and reverted to back up of previous version for now.

Yes,
I have it working... but it seems that I am very alone in this. I don't know what I have different. I have a Windows XP professional OS, I use Train Store and have an AMD processor. That's all. Also in our forums I only read about messages to Bill.

Crashes to Tell Bill before loading with me too.

Windows XP, Dual Processor, Trainstore - previous version ran with no problems, so I have reverted to that for now.

George has now ready for download on his website a version that in his mind should correct the problem.

1.6.122319 works for me.

I'd be interested in hearing what other people are getting for the memory allocation by MSTS in the small window that pops-up. I'm getting 229Mb to 248Mb (I have 1.5Gb of RAM). Even after running EnditAll to shut down other programs, I get a max of 248Mb.

Oh you're lucky...I'm getting 120Mb

1024Mb installed.

But yes its starting now....unfortunately started switching cabs...and msts crashed...locking the PC up....with the Message to Bill problem I have.
Removing the CD key from the registry, doesn't seem to have helped.

Cheers

I have an absolute maximum of 376MB (2GB installed). This went up by 11MB (from 365MB) as a result of using End It All to close a lot of useless programs. I was hoping for a bigger increase.

Marc.

Edit: no problems with loco or cab switching.

INSTALLING MSTSBin

If no previous version of any MSTSBin 1.6 has been installed then the Version 1.2 (1.4) Train Simulator update from the MS-TS download web site must be present in the Train Simulator folder, it's train.exe file having a December 2001 date.

If a previous version of MSTSBin 1.6 has been installed then it must be un-installed first, using it's Uninst_MSTS Patch*.exe in the Train Simulator folder, which will restore the previous version of MSTS and it's DECEMBER 2001 Train.exe, remove the MSTSBIN_BACKUP folder and the Uninst*.* files !!!

Then run the MSTSBin Patch 1.6.122319.exe - English and select other options like Transparent if required and install done, COPY/PASTE the Translated DLLs \ EN folder *.dll files into the Train Simulator folder !

RUN MSTS and all will work as it should as it does on this, my son's computer, MSTS being on an external USB-2 drive I brought with me from the U.K., MSTSBin 1.6.1223 allocating 139 Mb out of 550 Mb available RAM for MSTS !

O t t o

P.S.: There are some reporting problems with the MSTSBin 1.6.122008 update George was made aware of and replaced it with the 1.6.122319 patch. If you are one of them then un-install it using it's Uninst_MSTS Patch 1.6.1220.exe and then install the 1.6.122319 patch !
