Ohio Rail build 10

I tried to install a activity named Cambridge turn.apk. When I dragged it to the unpack, I got a message, "The installed track data base for this route is version 3446, The activity was built on version 3458. Continue?"

I said yes and the activity installed. When I tried the activity, I get another message that 2 eng files are missing . The activity would not run.

In the future if I get this message, should I not install the activity? Thanks

Every time you save a route in Activity Editor MSTS increments the track data base (or is it when you rebuild the TDB?). Anyway, a disparity in the numbers is usually not a problem. The missing eng files are another issue altogether. Use RouteRiter or Conbuilder to find what's missing from your Train set file; find the file (probably in Train Sim) and install it. That should solve your problem.

Thanks Bob,

I could not find the missing eng files in train sims. Tried another activity and there was missing files that were not in train sims. Getting a little gun shy on installing any moor activities. Will try another activity in a few days. Thanks

Bert;

I think you'll find most of what you need for Ohio Rail at:
http://www.avsim.com/
It's a free site , but you'll need to register. Then go to their library and the MSTS section.
