Hi All; Is anyone else having problems with the Amtrak Activity Pack? When I try to open the compressed files, I get the error message:- "Expected more files. Package damaged". This is not the only set of activities which have had problem.I sent e-mail to the author, but did not get a reply.Cheers; Chuck.

RE: Amtrak Activity Pack

Hi Chuck,I believe the AE activty packager needs to have the route folder name the same as the .trk file for it to work properly.The CSX Florida Funnel's folder name needs to be changed to US3 for the activity to package correctly. Until the author of the activty does that the activity for that route will not package correctly.RegardsEric

Thanks for downloading my activity pack, I am in the process of making some changes in the activities so I can upload version 2 of the activities. I have changed the folder name to USA3 and are Repackaging the files. I belive I packaged the Florida Funnel Activities using Route Riter but I'll package them agagin.Chris

RE: Amtrak Activity Pack

I did the Silver Meteor activity pack for that route a while back and I wound up having to zip all the paths, activities, cons, services, etc so people can use it. So if I change the folder name to US3 I can actually pack them up and they will work???BobFlorida Railfan Page

RE: Amtrak Activity Pack

Hi Bob,The way to be sure your packaging is correct is to remove the activity from your route (including its paths, services, traffic, and consists) and then test the package to see if it loads ok. Be sure to back up and not erase anything in case it doesn't work.I indicated the wrong route above the funnel is in zip form. It's the cajon route activities that are "damaged". The cajon.trk file is in lower case while the folder name is in upper case.RegardsEric
