RE: Cannot get Ohio rail to work

LAST EDITED ON Jun-22-02 AT 05:59 PM (EDT)LAST EDITED ON Jun-22-02 AT 05:56 PM (EDT)Have you checked that you really have the latest version of Xtracks? V. 3.1?Something similar happened to me. I had Xtracks and had done everything according to the instruction. Still missing files!It turned out to be a corrupt version of Xtracks. I downloaded another copy of it. Then everything was perfect!Be 110 % sure about this! Otherwise there should be no problems with the installation!And for the latest version: I deleted everything and started with a fresh installation of build8 of version7!Good luck!Haraldh F.

RE: Cannot get Ohio rail to work

I love the Ohio Route (I am using it for Norfolk Southern). Anyway I had a wierd problem come up. All of my tunnels were gone. Upon entering a tunnel I was floating through la la land until reaching the other portal. The cure, I copied all of the shapes from USA 1 into Bodily and that fixed it. I had another issue with the older Ohio and that was failed to load tape header. I copied textures from USA 2 and that fixed that.I been having a blast with the Ohio. Bob

RE: Cannot get Ohio rail to work

Hi Bob,
I had the same type of problem and what I did was try to load version 8 over version 7. That will not work. I don't know now that was when version 8 first came out. I see that there are some new downloads, so maybe that is not true any more. There are some new activities coming out for the Ohio. I tested them and they worked great they are called Ohio RR Reiner 1 thru 3 sould be at the Freight Activity for download but I realy don't know when. I think you will enjoy them also. Enjoy.Dave Horton
