Hi all,

I have had a problem ever since I installed OR where none of my MSTS created consists load. I've tried reinstalling and updating with no success. Any ideas?

What exactly happens in OR?
If the main consist is missing there will be an error message.

Do you have a locomotive selected for explore mode, or do you have <Any Locomotive> in the selection pane?

Cheers, Markus

It's just the consists I created myself. I really only have the consists for the default locomotives.

I believe this is the same problem as discussed at http://www.trainsim....motives-show-up which is still pending some form of answer from the OP there.

That´s not the answer to my question.

The problem is, if you have a specific loco selected in the loco selection pane, you will only be able to select consists with that loco on the point. Or the other way round: If you want a consist with a specific loco on the point, select the loco first.

Cheers, Markus

I understand that. What I am trying to say is that I have locomotives and consists that were created using the MSTS activity editor are not appearing in my OR menu.

OK, so it´s nothing to do with overlooking that difference to how MSTS does it...

@ Mervyn: Yep, looks to be the same. No clue hwever, yet...

Cheers, Markus
