Activities Not Working Again – image 1

After a "clean" re install of MSTS the only routes I have are Cajon Pass, TP2, Whitefish2, Marias 3.1, and PWV2, and of course the default routes. I spent some time making a activity for Whitefish2 and one for Marias Pass 3.1 Now on the Whitefish2 activity, it played good then I came onto a spot and got a "cannot find hitw-moon.ace" and then the game crashes. WTF??? So I move onto the activity I made for MP3.1. It went fine also and when I stopped at the Columbia Falls Yd. to make a pickup, I get a "cannot fine USgraveyard.s" and then the game crashes. But I had saved the activity at the point when I was leaving the yard @ Whitefish. So I load up the activity from where I saved it at and about 3 minutes after im going, it freezes and then phones home. What can be the problem. It is getting aggrivating

Yes I have, but even when adding the route to Sky Conductor, the skies do not show up.

>the skies do not show up. See http://www.train-sim.com/dcforum/DCForumID3/20913.htmlThe fix for this has already been discussed here. Since you've already added the route to SkyConductor, try the manual copying.

OK well I will try that and see if it works. But does anyone know why a created activity will cause it to go haywire. But the explore route option works fine.

RE: Activities Not Working Again

you might try running routeriter...sounds like some of your .s or .sd files and texture files might be missing...

I've had the same problem with Sky2. The files in question are actually borrowed from the Hitsatsu route textures, and can be found there. Sometimes you just have to copy and paste them from one route to the other manually. Then Sky should find them and run fine. These textures are quite nice.

Chad I never use the ad route feature.What I do is copy the env folder containing the sc2 files to the route that I want to use.I've never had a problem doing it this way.The other file that you're having problems with you'll need to check the other routes to find this file then add it to the route that needs it.

RE: Activities Not Working Again

Well, this is perhaps not on the same note, but I can't seem to get Sky Conductor 2 to work at all. It will add the routes fine but when I click on the main program, a dos box opens up and then quickly shuts down, and that is it. It goes too fast to read but I think it can't find the java files. So I uploaded the latest version of Java and it still didn't help. Anyone know or have an idea what is going on here? I am running Windows XP on a 2.4ghz Pentium 4 processor with onboard Intel Graphics card....very new machine so I don't think it is the graphics card as it runs the game very nicely.Thanks in advance for any help.Ranger
