Hi,I've recently rediscovered TrainSim after upgrading to a more powerful PC and have started to play around designing Activities. I have downloaded the LGVMed and Fairly-up-to-Date England routes but when I open them in Activity Editor I get errors saying "Error reading database. Cannot find trains\consists\Class37withHopper.con" If I hit yes to continue I get another similar error and I hit yes to get through them all and then I can design my activity. I get this sequence of errors every time I access anything to do with consists.These obviously refer to consists that the route designer has on his machine which I do not, but as the .con files do not exist on my machine I can't delete to get rid of the error. Is there a way of removing these phantom consists from the database? I've seen reference to ConBuilder - what does that do? Could that help me?Cheers

Run Route Riter or Route Control Lite, both available in the Downloads. They will tell you what is looking for what.Kevin Arceneaux
