Greetings folks.....I'm having a slight problem and I'm wondering if anyone knows a fix for it. I'm trying to create my own activity and wanting to add more automobile traffic for scenery. Even at 100% settings, there are no moving autos to be found anywhere. Now I know Montana isn't exactly Los freakin Angeles....but hey, there has GOT to be some traffic on the roads up there in the summertime!!! If anyone could help me out, I would greatly appreciate it.Cheers,Jason

3.1 has plenty of autos. You don't see any anywhere? Since you mentioned you had all the sliders maxed, I'm stumped as to why you aren't seeing them.-Jeff

RE: Autos on Marias Pass 3.1 (lack thereof)

Okay, here's my situation......I've got Traffic pegged all the way at 100 percent.....I got plenty of cars in parking lots, homes, etc., but no moving traffic on roads or at crossings. Its weird, looks like something from The Langoliers. I'm wondering if it could possibly have something to do with Java? I'd like to try and fix this so if anyone has any suggestions to help, I'd appreciate any good advice.Cheers,Jason

RE: Autos on Marias Pass 3.1 (lack thereof)

Like I said, I see plenty of autos. (and they're moving)Why do you think it has anything to do with Java?-Jeff

I spent hours and hours adding more auto traffic to MP, and adjusting what was there already to make it more reasonable. There should be cars on just about every road.Bob Siederer

RE: Autos on Marias Pass 3.1 (lack thereof)

Hey Bob......by the way......I love the route. The reason why I mentioned Java is because I checked all the routes I have on MSTS and found out that this lack of automobiles is not just found in MP3.1....but also in Cajon, NE Corridor, and every other freakin route I have on here. We're talking Stephen King deluxe here. Its making me highly frustrated and upset. The only thing I can think of is that someone using my puter (aka the mrs.) accidentally deleted one of the installed java plug-ins and its affecting my games. (Do the cars even run off a Java program or is this something that can be fixed doing something totally different?) All I know guys is that I'm getting highly frustrated and would appreciate ANY help I could get.Cheers,Jason

RE: Autos on Marias Pass 3.1 (lack thereof)

what you gotta do is slide the Object density population slider all the way right, then you will see the cars again

Hello! This situation can most likely be addressed in the "options" section. Move the appropriate detail sliders to max.
