Some activites either lock up the train sim, or crash it completely.
I have made a few activities with just a player train and it did the same thing. Does not matter what route, the ones that came with it or one I have added. Any Ideas why this happens??Thanks Marchal

RE: WHY??

I have had this problem with the default activities. Once the route loads and then the cab comes out, and the Train operations notebook hasn't come out yet(that means you can see out of your cab), it locks up. But if you just start MSTS and load and activity, it doesn't lock up. But if you either selected Explore route or another activity and finshed it, then you select the second activity(not explore route), it locks up.-------------My favourite LUL train-------------

RE: WHY??

Hmmm I think you'll have to narrow it down a bit more Marchal , To me it sounds like an engine file or consist file problem. Maybe the activities that cause problems all have the same thing in common .
I'd suggest using conbuilder to check all the units and consists for syntax errors .. sound file errors , cabview errors .
Hmmm .. any other suggestions? jv
