RE: Polls on Activities

Well, I haven't played this one, I have to try it. In my opinion, the only reason why an activity would be bad are those main line runs that go from point A to point B and that's it! I have played some activities where you are controlling a train for 3+ hrs with no AI traffic, no set-outs or lifts, very stupid. That hardly ever happens in real life. Normally you at least have to hook up the power to the consist. That is just my 2 cents, thanks.

RE: Polls on Activities

hmm ok thank you,for your information,for one thing I normally make my Activity as a Crew Change Activity where you just changed Crews but I will add some AI heading South and do something for Picking up stuff.

Poll On Activity

John,I thought the activity was OK. What it did need was a little more AI traffic and some loose consists on the sidings to add a little spice. One thing I noticed is that the UP train I guess I was supposed to be racing down the hill was far ahead of my train by the time I reached the summit and all I saw on the UP line were Yellow and Flashing Yellow signals.Bill Waterman

Is My Activity Good or Bad

1. Your Read Me file should be available to be read from the file listing without having to download the file. 2. Your Non Default Requirements should list where they are available from. I have no idea where the engines can be found and don't want to waste much time looking for them. 3. If the engines are from a payware site, they should only be from the basic payware site that the activity is intended to be used on. In this case, I have the original Cajon Pass Route, High Desert Rails Edition 1.60 (and the Tehachapi Pass Route II, California Gateway Edition 1.0), but I have no enhancements of the route and I wouldn't buy anything just to run an activity. Don't know if this applies in this case or not.My opinion only,Jerry

RE: Is My Activity Good or Bad

It only lists the wag and eng files, you have to list the folders and the zip files and where they are from. Mike's Program is good, but not that good.
