  I HAVE A PROBLEM TOO. WHEN I DOWNLOAD THE ROUTE BBT - KRJ, AND SELECT THE ROUTE, WHEN I CLICK "START" BUTTON, I APPEARS THE PROBLEM "The Railway and Train folders could not be found in any of the routes file's parent directories. Please check your folder structure." WHAT SHOULD I DO IN ORDER TO PLAY OPENBVE. SOMEONE PLEASE TELL ME PLEASE.

   

  P.S. I'VE ALREADY READ THE GUY, SBS7322B'S INSTRUCTIONS BUT I DON'T UNDERSTAND.

  You have to put the train folders in the 'train' files.

   

  Also, there is the route, object and sound folders. Put them in the respective places in the railway file. hope this helps! Also, do download my EWL route! :P

  LOL. Relax dude..... No point using CAPS because we know that you are agitated on playing the route.....

   

  Basically, put the C151 train into the Train folder. Then Objects, routes and sounds are placed into Railway > Objects, Railway > Routes, and Railway > Sound respectively.

  Can I ask some questions:

   

  1: How come the BVE route from HK having a "maximum speed limit" of 25 (When Ctrl + T to show timetable in default) and obviously I dont drive at such a low speed which then there is no penalty for speeding there. For Singapore routes that are developed by you guys, the speed limit is imposed there and works. (Is this a matter of BVE 4 & OpenBVE issue)

   

  2: How come in the North South Line BBT - SBW, there are at times where I did not change the power notches, get penalty for passengers discomfort?

   

  3: How come in few of the BVE HK route that was designed for BVE 2, there seemed to always have a train in front and not possible to drive? (E.g: Airport Express in HK)

   

  4: How many power and braking notches are there in C151, both real world and BVE trains.

   

  5: What is the use of ATC / ATS / ATS-P in the (open) BVE, interestingly, in BVE 2, the ATS is enabled by default while OpenBVE requested me to activate ATS and BVE 4 fails miserably. (The route was MTR TKLTseung Kwan O Depot, designed for BVE 2.6 which can be get at here: http://bvehk.net/plugin.php?identifier=download&module=download&acti=softview&softid=111)

  4. In the real world, a C151 has 3 Power notches and 4 braking notches while in openBVE, a C151 has 4 Power notches and 3 braking notches.

  Correction: In real world, the 0, 200 and 300 series train have 4 power notch, 3 service brake notch and 1 emergency brake notch. So meaning it includes

  EB, B3, B2, B1, N, P1, P2, P3,P4

  1. The HK developer made an error. Don't be so calculative.

  3. The AEL train (A-Train) has an error of a 5000 secs delay. You are required to edit the train.dat file. Please search BVEHK for the answer as I have forgotten the thread.

  Download this and extract it into your OpenBVE Folder.

  http://openbve.trainsimcentral.co.uk/common/tool_traineditor_source.zip

  This is needed for your settings for train editor, extract this into your TRAINEDITOR

  File. 

  When you finish downloading and extracting everything, Run TrainEditor in your

  OpenBVE Folder. Then click Open at

  the left side, then ignore the pop up of 'Do you want to save the data before opening

  another train', then go to your C151 folder and find the C151 train.dat file. Click on it

  and you will get the properties, go to Properties(2) by clicking on the tab on the top of

  the TrainEditor, look at the right side of the page named 'Device', you should see

  'DoorsOpenMode' and 'DoorsCloseMode', they were in Semi-Automatic for both, so

  change them to 'Manual', and you are done!

  That's the source code - it's not needed... You only need the first link.

  NSL? Quick, but illegal method: rename the departing.wav file from the openBVE\Railway\Sound sl\announce folder. It will tell you there's a file missing, but there's no door closing announcements!

  Just a note to my C151 modded version:

   

  U Do NOT need an pre-existing C151 train to work and Willis did mentioned that his testing version of a new release (Presumely 0.7), which I have no access of (Since I am not yet a developer, currently tested by the developers) has inclusive of such mods.

   

  So I will be holding this update / modded train for a moment until Willis released his new train, which he did not state approximately by when it can be finished.
