The new activity in the library will not unpack. The activity calls for the Modern City Tramway. How ever the folder in Routes is MCT.
I have installed many activitys, so nothing is wrong with the Tsun. My Computer specs are in my profile

RE: Modern City Tramways Activity

Hi Ron,I am having the same trouble with this activity. Indications are that the APK file is truncated at the first byte (according to winhex)and therefore does not unpack correctly. Winzip 8.1 unpacks the 373k file as 1kb. I have Emailed the owner two days ago as yet nil responce. I wonder what the other 291 downloaders are doing?David D (Downunder)

Ron Further to my previous reply,The author has now sent me the required files (in zip form) to run this activity and it works fine.I tried to pack it using the MSTS "Pack Activity" command in the file menu of the Activity Editor and got the same result as the author. There are no indications of any problems during packing. However the APK file finishes up at only 373b and the winzip viewer states that it is truncated at the first byte. The author is seeking help as this is his first attempt at an activity and he does not speak english very well (my preception from the email). He is one up on me though as I would not know where to start in creating an activity.David D (Downunder)
