RE: Whitefish 5 querry

I think what you are looking for is wf5wtrf.zip in the library. As the description says, there is a lot of AI traffic. However, I was quite disappointed as all the AI trains are the same consist. I would have thought the author could have used more originality and at least used other consists from Marias Pass, which are all BNSF trains. Anyway, it is a good activity to see the length of the Whitefish route.Cheers; Chuck F.

After having to halt at a red light for the fifth time, only to have the same consist go past yet again, I called a halt and went into AE and modified the Activity.Now there are umpteen different consists on that AI roster! That aside, I must compliment the team who put Whitefish 5 together.
It is quite amazing how something as simple as two sailboats racing across a white-capped lake can give the impression of a populated world and add so much realism.Well done!Bruce.

RE: Whitefish 5 querry

Yes but I have had the problem that my msts install cant handle over so many different cars added to an activity. Has anyone else had this problem? If I do change the AI con's will it affect the sim? Also how are ya'll fps on this route, and how are they with the 22 train meets.

RE: Whitefish 5 querry

Double-click the .apk-file, and it should install by itself

1.-To install APK, you can optionally drag & drop the APK onto (MSTS)\UTILS\TSunpack.exe2.-As to the always identical AI trains:
as I mentioned, this act was made as a simple demo for the route possibilities. Anyone is warmly welcome to improve it or build on it...
To change trains, you must edit TRAFFIC, replacing services with new ones calling on different consists.Love and Peace
