Installing the add-on routes is not difficult. You need to install it as an add-on rather than stand-alone. This install process can take some time so plan on letting this work while you do something else. Also there's a new patch out for the route as well, and this will patch your add-ons painlessly (or it should be anyways).

Your locomotives don't show up because there are errors with them, missing dependencies, or the dependencies have errors so the original asset that requires them won't load them in and report them as missing.

Check your CMP to see if they have any red exclamation points (!) next to them or a red-colored gear thingy reporting broken dependencies.

In order to get your broken items working, you need to repair them and any associated items related to them. This is a mostly easy process, and it can be a futile study in utter frustration particularly if the asset is still broken after you've got everything else fixed.

Without going into a lot of details here, most of the errors are missing or broken textures and configuration file errors. The graphics files can be repaired using PEV Soft's PM2IM, and Texture2TGA, missing shadows can be made by his shadow tool.

Configuration file errors are sometimes obvious, sometimes not. Look for words such as "thanks", is, and other things that come up as "Not a valid tag...", etc. The best way to fix the config files is to look for a known good item of a similar type, and make the broken config match. Just ensure that the unique-asset specific details are different.

There are other threads relating to this over in the Suveyor forum and TS2010 specific forum.

Now remember these errors are not new to the assets so don't blame it on TS2010 causing them. The program, starting with TRS2006 onward became more strict with error parsing so now they are reported. This is to ensure better program reliability and better game-play.

Adding Murchison is quite simple..... load the DVD or download, as normal, then a box will come up asking if you want to load as a patch to ts2010 or as a stand alone item juts pick the patch to TS2010 button.

As for the trainz you have downloaded, this can be caused by a number of things.
1......In Options from the game panel there is a tick box called only display favourite content, make sure this is un-ticked.
2......It could be that it is a item that won't work in compatibility mode, so try turning of the tick box for that as well, you can find this in the game panel Options panel as well.
3......It could be that you have found only a part of the downloads needed for a crenate train, in witch case you will need to find out witch dependences you are missing.
4......In the route directory check to make sure the yellow star at the top is greyed out, if it's yellow, click on it.
