A while back I downloaded a set of Signals "clsig10.zip" by Hank Sundermeyer and I can not get them to work. I am using the signals in a new route that have no other signals and after loading all shapes and textures and the two .dat files I am getting a "Script error" and I am lost on this. Has anybody else used the clsig10 signal set and had this problem? I have tried to contact the builder a few times but got no answer. I vary much like the signals and would like to get them working. Thank You for any help.I get this message when I try to start Train Sim after installing the signals in the route.

Fred,I'm sorry, but I must have missed your messages.With regard to your problem, open up the sigscr.dat file in your unitext editor and scroll down to the bottom of the file. In the line above the "End of File" you will see a line of forward slashes beginning with a forward slash, asterisk. Remove the asterisk and leave just a line of forward slashes. Save the file. The "/*" notation is similar to a bracket and needs a closing notion, in this case a "*/" which isn't there. These notations should inclose comments and when paired tell the script interpreter to ignore the comment.That should cure your problem.Regards,
Hank

Hank
That fixed the problem. I have used a lot of your signals and like them all. I kind of understand how they work but I looked at that sigscr.dat for two days and did not see that. Thank You again for the help.........
