Hi,
I just downloaded the 5 required files for the Newark & Jersy city route.
I looked at the tracks from the map pack and it looks impressive, plus the screen shots i've seen look great!I can't wait to try it out.Now to the problem i'm having...I downloaded all 5 files and the 2 updates.I copied them all to the routes folder and ran the installme.batthen copied the 2 updates to the route and ran the installme.bat(the new one)Then I go to the AE and try to open the route. but I get can not load track database and then the send dont send message.
Does anyone know what is the matter? I looked at folders and it looked like i have all the files.How big is the route supposed to be? mine is currently at 235MB.
Is it too small?
I'd really like to run this route so any help would be much appreciated!Thanks for any help or advice given!

Hi,
Yes, I do have Xtracks 3.3 installed.
I reinstalled the route last night(with out the fixes) and still won't work...
I'll re-install xtracks and see if it works.
ThanksPS. the route size is now 244MB.
Also is the route supposed to have Lo_tiles? because i don't seem to have a lo_tiles folder.
(Don't know if thay have any effect on the track?)

On my HD it takes 269 MB, so you may have some missing things. I don't have LO_TILES folder. that's for distant mountains, right?
I would need distant skyscrapers instead of distant mountains...
