When I opened the first route I installed in Open Rails, it looked like this, with textures, tiles and missing objects.



So I tried to solve it with a YouTube video, I downloaded more routes and put the folders "Terrex", "Textures", "Envfiles" and "Shapes" to the route that has the problem, it did not solve it completely but it was left with some more textures .
In the TSRE5 route editor the route is seen with all its textures and objects.

Hi Bruno,

Welcome to elvastower.

First action when you have a bug is post the openrailslog.txt file that is on your desktop. This will tell us a lot about your system, settings and problem.

What routes have you installed?
How were they installed?

Hi, thank you.

I have the "Leòn-Sahagún","Alcazár SJ-LinaresBaeza" and "Cercanias & GL 2.1" all with the same problem, I installed "Carcanias" with an exe file, but the others manually.

Here is the openrailslog.txt

Hi, Bruno too.
Welcome to ET community!
Use the log-file for acquiring diagnostic information every time, when something is wrong with your ORTS game.
And you will be able to see by yourself, which things can't be found by the program, or which are erroneous for correct usage in game.
Then correct all that precisely, but not by populating the route folder with gigabytes of unnecessary files.

At least, tell us, which route, because Demo Model is naturally incomplete at its part.

As like shooting from cannon to Mosquitos.

I think, the attachment right appears after writing some posts. But admins can correct me.

Did you read the first chapters of Manual, telling about folder structure, ORTS requires to run properly?
Maybe, program searches global stuff in wrong place?

---

Oh yes, the log tells the same!
Files can't be found in Global folder.
Look it yourself first.

Thank for uploading log-file.
Now it's possible to give more correct advises to you.

I didn`t read anything sorry.

I have the GLOBAL folder, with Ytracks and tsection.dat (Also SHAPES and TEXTURES.

[Weter]

Don't sorry.
We all are learning.
And please, don't think, I mean "it's your problem,"
Don't hesitate to ask. There are a lot of kind men here
Shapes and textures may contain more of common for multiple routes objects models, than only track sections.

As well as global Sound folder.

First, we all have learned, that installing ORTS program and content to x86 folder can spoil game functioning, as windows closes access to that folder.

Try simple path as
C:\ORTS\program
C:\ORTS\source
C:\ORTS\content\groupe of similar routes\ with their common global folders and routes themselves, that are using common rolling stock..

Hi Bruno,

First problem is that you have installed in program files(x86).
Program files are a protected set of folders that interfere with MSTS and open rails and their utilities.

Given that your install does not work, you need to start again.

Open Rails needs to be installed in its own folder system, say c:\openrails (if openrails updates itself it will delete ALL of you routes at the moment)
Your routes need to go in a separate folder system say c:\routes

When you have done that, see what the errors look like.

Oh bad mine, installing it in another folder will solve it? Because OpenRails can't access the files it needs, right?

[Weter]

The ORTS\program folder will be completely deleted and replaced with new one by update process - Derek si right.
So all patches like locales, custom sky textures etc. must be backed-up and stored at separate place too for adding to program\content folder manually if you want them.
As well as all routes and trains-as Derek advised already.

ok, I'll reinstall outside the x86 folder, and routes in a separate folder, right?

I am very grateful I never met such kind people <3

Also, reading the log-file, we can see the errors with routes themself and with locomotives.
Missing brackets, improper units -see log.
Some sounds are not found there too, by the way.
