Dear Skyrat,

It's Chugger_2 here. I would like to ask you how you cretaed your consists please. It seems that I can open them with wordpad, change a wagon that doesn't work for me by replacing the line with another that does, save it; and provided I also change the consist as well, it works beautifully. I use Conbuilder to locate the consists for Bodidilly and send then to the editor.

Whereas earlier on I could not open any activity that you created, I now have all running just fine.

I cannot open other activities in the same way as all I get is machine language. Which program do you use to create them ?

Yours truly,

Chugger_2 { Pam Phoenix }

hi, thanks for trying the activity, any problems, please let me know. I created all the consists in the activity editor. when i click on a section of track where i want to put a consist, a little window pops open asking new, or edit, cancel. i press the new button and create it right there with its unique name and rolling stock configuration. hope this is helpful. any other questions, please let me know.

Tchau.

Thank you SkyRat,

I am still surprised that I can open the activities that you posted for O&WV whereas all the others [ and arn't there myriads of them ] I can't.

I am keen to try making my own, and your directions on where to place them seems easy enough, but I am mystified as how to time the whole thing so they don't all come crashing in on each other.

I'll let you know.

Thanks again for your help,

Chugger_2 [Pam]

HI,

May i suggest you do an activity first without the ai trains. That might be easier, that way, you have no time constrants. also, a great activity building guide is rich garber's manual on the subject at http://www.edmfamily.com/msts/index.htm

go check it out.

Need anything else, please let me know.

Happy Easter,

SkyRat
