To get the consist editor you have to either edit the player service or a service in the traffic editor. If all you want to do is edit a consist, get Conbuilder, I think it is available in the DL Library.Kevin Arceneaux It is time for Amtrak to become a fallen flag!
Hee-hee, you left out the best part, Kevin! To edit a service, you first have to open the activity editor. And it's not really necessary to edit a service, all you have to do is; 1. Open the activity editor, open any activity. 2. Right click on the track in the map window, "place consist", then select "new". 3. Build consist with the consist builder, give it a name, save the consist and exit. 4. Exit the activity without saving it, the new consist (as long as it has an engine) will show up as a driveable consist for explore route.For changing what you drive in existing activities, take a squint at this; http://www.train-sim.com/dcforum/DCForumID3/14233.html
Getting absent minded at times. But why do all that if you have conbuilder, a whole lot easier.Kevin Arceneaux It is time for Amtrak to become a fallen flag!
To find the consist editor, go to the start menu, and then go to Microsoft GAmes, and finally to Editors and Tools. Under this listing, after you start it, you will find the Activity Editor. Buried in the Activity Editor is the Consist Editor, and to find it takes some looking. Seems to me someone wrote an article on how to make a consist, and I can not find it at the moment.
I had this problem when I first loaded MSTS - I found that you have to load EVERYTHING including the out of date Acrobat viewer.I keep trying Conbuilder - gives me an 'error on line 6' message every time. Any ideas?regards Richard Osborne
