Another MSTS problem

Simming · 23rd July 2005, 18:16

everytime I try and open any route, with any train, it says "failed to intianlize activity manager" or something along those lines.

any sollution? kicking it didn't work, spitting at it, shouting at it, or pouring water onto it didn't either.

Make sure you have run installme.bat in the route's folder.

X:\Where-ever MSTS is\Routes\route_folder\installme.bat

ive had the routes for ages though, and played them loads. its done it on scottish central and springfield. and its the first time its ever done it as well.

23rd July 2005, 18:21

As I said, ensure that is done.

Simming · 23rd July 2005, 18:24

but mount springfield dont have one, everything on that route is new. And why has it only just started to show up, after hours of driving these routes perfectly?

How many routes do you have? How many consists?

Simming · 23rd July 2005, 18:38

6 default routes + 4 more. Dont know how many consists. I havn't changed the amount since I last played.

Look in your consist folder

Simming · 23rd July 2005, 18:49

259 consists, and according to con builder they are all ok.

matt · 23rd July 2005, 18:51

So its not the too many consists problem then

Do you use Trainstore ? This makes MSTS run better.

Simming · 23rd July 2005, 19:43

no, but that doesn't explain why its playing up all of a sudden, after months of it running faultlessly, or there abouts.

I think it's the registry for the Activity Editor corrupting itself. You should ask on UKTS.
