Sep-27-01, 11:49 AM (EST) 1. "RE: PRESS RELEASE!! NEC Freight Lines Started!!" heya there,
Been to the site and signed up for work..
(grabbed the trains and activity's )
As i was about to memorise my work order, ( unzip it to tsunpack )
I realized that the unzipped folders 1stHActC and 1stHActD have exactly the same information in them, Therefore I was wondering is there something in these activity's that make them all different and Im missing it..... Or are they actually the same ?
Looking forward to the feedback so I can start my run..... Thankyou..... Remove | Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top

Sep-27-01, 12:07 PM (EST) 2. "RE: PRESS RELEASE!! NEC Freight Lines Started!!" hi bo,
the activity sets are the same. the one that uses the term "custom", as in 1stHActC.zip needs the three necx locos.
the one that uses the term "default" or 1stHActD.zip doesnt require any addon equipment, just the out of box msts stuff.
I did the two separate activities so people would have the choice.
hope this helps.
