Available here in the
RWA File Libraryhttp://www.megaupload.com/?d=7PG9HZ4V for the missing assets some of you may be experiencing, you still need to go to golden age of rails to get the remaining free assets( i tried to reduce the hunt to 1 place)
that is a pic of the route on my computer, yours comes with default rail not scalerail, hope you like it.
use winzip or winace to open the .zip file
ATTENTION PLEASE: do not use the scenarios i created they do not work, "farmland" scenario works but they were only intended for me as i worked through the route. I plan on creating some simple scenarios for the next release. SO PLEASE MAKE YOUR OWN FOR NOW! THIS ROUTE WORKS FINE OTHERWISE
Most of the missing assets can be found on train sim and railworks america. I mentioned the 5 websites to download them from. and get my assets and you'll be in really good shape. trust me If i could distribute the free stuff I would. just read the readme and spend 20 mins searching the names of the developers and you'll find the stuff.

where did you say to donate and get the asset pack with 200+ assets?
also your scale rail is having a problem.
i have had this problem, for some reason you cannot use the standard wooden ties unless u are using the scale rail track rules. otherwise this happens where you have flat ties, your ballast is too dark, and the sides of the ballast are at wierd angles. actually scale rail works with all other default rules.

Hello Ian,
I downloaded the zip file as I cannot open the .ace and I installed everything on your "Read Me" list which brought me right up to date with EVERYTHING that you guys in The States have made available on this site and Trainsim, etc; however, according to my RW Tools, I'm missing a few of Toripony's bridges and some of Great Northener's PRR Bulkhead 53 stuff. Any idea where these can be obtained from please, as I assume they aren't part of this asset pack that belongs to you.
Many thanks.
ex-railwayman.

I had orignally started with scalerail but due to licensing restrictions i chose to use rural landscapes and scale roads and revert to default track for $ sake

So how can we use Scalerail for the route?

Since released as a commercial project, the route is only licensed to use ScaleRoad and Rural Landscapes.

I assume the only way is to convert it yourself to ScaleRail for your own personal use.
Hack, am I correct?

Unless Ian opts for a license later down the road, then yes, you are correct.

I'm confused here (not surprising for an old fart like me) I have Ian's route and the 2 asset packs, (one freeware, the other is donation ware) but what do I need from Golden Age? All of it? Right now, the route will start to load, and I get a black screen after a few minutes. Have to CTRL-ALT-DEL, then I get that oh so wonderful "SBHH" Didn't save the log file.
