Nov-17-01, 11:20 AM (EST) 3. "RE: Bow River route problem." Ok New ones up.. Thought I'd start numbering them, Seems to be a few different ones out now :} So its got the lavish beta rating of 1.0.1 :}To the south of the large yards you'll find a the bigginings of a little town..Just a few stations there at the moment.Ive included one activity which will need the Gp38-2, I looked for the default Gp38 and couldnt find it..Is the Gp38-2 THEE default ? Either way you'll need that for the activity.. I strongly recommend you make your own basic one or run in explorer..The ship with a rail going into it has 2 sidings that will fit 6 or 7 Fals Ore cars on each siding.
You can loop from titan , around and into the port.This post has a lot more info..

Nov-17-01, 12:36 PM (EST) 6. "RE: Nope, still invalid" If the zip is invalid it is most likely because you did not DL the whole file. Many servers get cut off, sometimes so close to the end that it can look complete, when downloading. Just keep downloading it till you get the whole thing. Sometimes it can take dozens of attempts. Alternatively you can use GoZilla or GetRight or one of those download managers to resume interupted downloads where it got cut off but... Those programs sell the info of what you download to marketting companies so they should be avoided unless absolutely necessary.-Andy

Nov-17-01, 12:40 PM (EST) 7. "RE: Nope, still invalid" Ok so the other alternitive is to split the route into 2 or 3 folders.. Will have to soon because its reaching the 5mb mark and thats the limit for yahoo uploads..I just tried to start a web page on topcities but the route .zip as it stand was to big for upload..So there goes that idea..How do people feel about downloading multiple files ?Catchya's Remove | Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top
