Help, problem playing the Trainz 2010 Settle and Carlisle Pack

[Eraser74]

Hi!

I bought Trainz 2010 a while ago and now I bought the Settle and Carlisle Pack, that came out on Steam a few days ago. But i cannot play it, each time I start SnC it just loads up the normal Trainz 2010 version and the route is nowhere to be found!

Any help on how to play the DLC would be appreciated!

Hi Eraser74

When on the Routes page check that the filter is turned off (gold star just below the search box). If it shows gold just click it to turn it off and the SnC routes should then show.

Thanks, that fixed it.

OK, now I have another problem...just a few hours ago the route went perfectly fine, but now whenever I try to play a session on this route, the game sometimes just stands still for a few seconds and nothing happens, then it just goes on.

Never had this problem before, and as I was playing the route just a few hours ago this stops never occured.

My system is:

Athlon X64 Dualcore 5000+
ATI Radeon HD 4670 512 mb
4gb Ram
Win7 32bit

Any suggestions??

Have you told your anti-virus to ignore the Trainz folder?
Do you have iTunes, Skype, Messenger, or anything else that could be updating itself from time to time running in the background?
I also disable the iTrainz chat feature so that doesn't keep checking for activity.

Mike.

No I don´t have anything running in the background, but I will try to disable the chat feature as well.

I was noticing, that I was online with iTrainz as the route was working correctly and now I am offline, so that can be the problem.

But why do other routes work without any flaws??

Edit: No that wasn´t the problem, the game keeps on hanging for a few seconds on the SnC route.

Any more suggestions? So far I feel like I wasted my money, because I can´t play this route.

Which S&C route?

There are 5 S&C routes in the original package (I'm assuming the Steam release is the same as the original- maybe I'm wrong here). Do you have a problem with all of them, or just the very large one named "SnC Carlisle Skipton"? If the problem is just with the large one, then this would imply your PC can't handle routes this large.
