Route Editor For Msts Trains

Tsre5 Activity

Your MSTS Installation and Custom Installations for Open RailsOpen Rails reads only the content folders in each of the MSTS installationsyou choose to identify for it and will do so without modifying any of thosefiles. None of the MSTS program folders are used and no changes to the MSTSdirectory tree are required.Open Rails may also be used to read a non-MSTS directory structure that youcreate.This document uses the term Root Folder to designate the parent folder of anyMSTS or OR-Specific directory tree (.e.g, Train Simulator is theRoot Folder for MSTS). Consists Paths Services Shapes Sounds Textures Terrtex Tiles Traffic Trainset WorldOpen Rails uses a file parser to read the MSTS files and will locate manyerrors that are missed or unreported by the MSTS software or by otherutilities. In most cases, the Open Rails software will ignore the error in thefile and run properly.

Open Rails software logs these errors in a log file onthe user’s desktop. This log file may be used to correct problems identifiedby the Open Rails software. The parser will also correct some of the problemsthat stumped MSTS. For example, if a texture is missing Open Rails willsubstitute a neutral gray texture and continue. ActivitiesMany passenger and freight activities created using the MSTS activity editorrun without problems in Open Rails.Some Activities created using the MSTS activity editor will have slightlydifferent behavior as compared to running in MSTS. This is often due toslightly different train performance resulting from differences in how eachsimulator handles train physics.A few activities fail to run at all.

This appears to be due to the creativityof Activity Designers who have found ways to do things wholly unanticipated bythe Open Rails Team. As these are discovered the Open Rails team will recordthe bug for future correction. GLOBALSHAPESMany routes use specific track sets, like XTRACKS, UK-finescale etc.Routes which solely use such sets do not need any of the original MSTSfiles from GLOBAL, as all required files come from the relevant track set.These sets can be downloaded from many Train Sim forums. There are also manyroutes using super-sets of the original MSTS track sets. These routes willneed some or all the files contained in the SHAPES and TEXTURESsubfolders within the GLOBAL folder of your MSTS installation.
