If you have downloaded Stage 2 then you only need the following file:

Update file (37MB) http://www.mediafire.com/file/5usqxz6ft ... e.rwp/file

If you are new to the route then you need the above file and the following two;

Route file (2GB) http://www.mediafire.com/file/rv2swkbs7 ... e.rwp/file

Assets file (228MB) http://www.mediafire.com/file/fqxd5ck98 ... s.rwp/file



What gets installed first and are there any dependencies? I've installed the route and there were issues with the install itself but there are no tracks. Only yellow and black squares where the tracks should be.


This stage is 99% scenery additions and 1% buried signals/signage/track markers. No new track has been added. Fixed bad paths issue for some assets.

There are 3 free roam scenarios included and 1 Standard scenario. There is also an awesome scenario by BoostedFridge in the file library.

My thanks go out to BoostedFrige and gtrtroger for providing sage advice during testing. Any problems or peculiarities that sneak through are due solely to me.



The next stage will be the extension of the Orin Subdivision to Bill, Wyoming and maybe adding another mine or two to the Campbell sub.

Hmmm, it would have been nice to have installation instructions with the downloads. One shouldn't have to read 17 pages of questions and answers. Happy Thanksgiving to you as well.

If you had bothered to open the download files for this route, you would have discovered that it contains a readme file which contains all the instructions necessary to install this route properly. If you were interested enough in the route to begin with, you would have read the 17 pages..... Its not the destination.....it’s the journey.

Excuse me Tomcat but I just downloaded the Route and Asset Files but there isn't a Manual included. Is it located somewhere else other than Medafire Site?
Thank you for your assistance.

Come on guys, this was all done for free. The information is all here in the thread. If you don’t care to take the time to read it then don’t load this. Have a nice day.

OK Buzz, the link I found doesn't work anymore. It wanted me to download an Application I don't want and then wants me to set up my own MetaFire Account. So is it too much to ask a question? The reference to the Manual on Page 13, the Link doesn't work. There is a PDF on Page 10 but it is 24 Pages long and isn't the Manual I am looking for. So is it possible that the Manual was overlooked in the last update? I realize this is a free Route.

I opened the Recent Download for these three Files. I beg your pardon but here isn't a Manual in the current three Downloads on Page 13 of this Thread. So where is it? I get it but is it possible it was overlooked in the Downloads. I am not trying to be belligerent, but the recent comments don't help.

OK here's a read me:Download the three files. Open the Utilities.exe. Click on Package Manager. Click on install. Find the three files that you just downloaded. Run the install. Route is now installed.
Dependencies are;

Payware:

Tehachapi Pass (Majority of the route is from this dependency)
Soldier Summit
Sherman Hill
Steven's Pass



Freeware:

RCAP from Railworks America. http://railworksamerica.com/index.php/d ... =22:models

Pipeline lofts and Coal Mine Conveyor from Golden Age of Railroading. http://golden-age-rails.com/rwscenry.html

Eléments de raffinerie from http://ajrailsim.free.fr/ Under the Objets tab you'll find refinery assets under 'Eléments de raffinerie' for download. It's a 3.3 MB file - easy install.


And as always many thanks to the freeware creators;

EMDSD90MAC
SMMDigital
John Lippai
Great Northener

and the payware providers;

3DTrains (Marc Nelson)
G-TraX
DTG

Nag nag nag. You groan like an old women. Take a deep breath and let it out. Do it 2 more times and you will be just fine. To keep from saying so much, remove the tongue !*salute*! *!lol!*

Thanks dphorton. That's why I asked. But you will always have that one person with the sarcastic answer and offers little help other than to say you should have done this or that. Why do some continue to try and ice skate up hill. Never understood it.

I'm trying to play the LGIL158_Gillete_Local. I can't seem to find the 2 Bay Hopper BN3 or the BN the readme file doesn't give much other than where they are located . But the actual file name isn't listed or where the original file is that has reference to this wagons. Any help is appreciated.
