Is there any good reason I'm getting this "failed to lo

I am using the Megacoaster track and I can't even get into it. It gives me all these lame error messages. Considering I did exactly as the installation said this makes absolutely no sense. Same with the Modern City Underground track. What is this load of poo and how do I fix it?

It helps if you are more detailed about your "lame" error messages, otherwise, it makes your post just as lame.Chris Bogley

Megacoaster has had over 800 downloads, and this is only the first problem I hear about it (except for the guy who wondered whether being catapulted from the ends of the tracks was a problem).Please be more specific, so I can look into this (I don't have Modern City Underground, so I can't comment on that route).

Hi Michael> except for the guy who wondered whether being catapulted from the ends of the tracks was a problemLOL Well, honestly, I wondered something similar too when I placed the starting point for a player path something like 1 kilometre below Surava on Albula 2! Gee, that was when the name rang a bell...Lukas a.k.a Swissie

First it says "failed to save service" which of course means nothing. It asks you if you want to continue and I say yes. Then it finally says failed to load activity.

That may be the clue, since MegaCoaster has no services (nor activities or traffic). Please check this: does the MegaCoaster folder (under Routes in the Train Simulator folder), contain subfolders called ACTIVITIES, SERVICES and TRAFFIC? If not, create those subfolders (leaving them empty) and try running MegaCoaster again.If this was the problem, you are probably using older or unusual unzipping software, which fails to automatically create empty folders even though they should be created.

Eh, where did my signature go?
Where has my favourite LUL train gone? Maybe it was sent for bolt checking again...
