Montana Rail Link MP V2 OP-Session's (This aint your daddy's circle burning)

Montana Rail Link 2.9 Route and Session is now on the DLS. Downloading Session 2.8 will update it if you can,t see 2.9 yet. Don,t forget to check for missing dependencies. I had to download two afterwards. I,ve just completed a new session for 2.8 so looks like I,ll have to update it as well.
 
Im going to host a session tonight, just a fun run sort of deal. If you want a specific job just ask me and I can give you one. Ill pe putting it up some time around 7pm eastern, 6pm central, 5pm mountain, 4pm pacific.

And I want to say 12 midnight for Colour.
 
Make sure you have the the dependencies. They are on the DLS, but some times CMP cant find them. There are 4 locomotives that I added that you have to find the dependencies manually. To do this, right click on the session, then click view dependencies, then click view in main list. Then find any that have the puzzle piece. Right click them then click download.

Might be the new GP's I added.
 
3 things Gman:

1. Did you download 2.9?
2. Do you have Teamspeak or Skype?
3. I have shut my game down to do my own database repair, just to make sure thats not whats causing issues.
 
I have created a new session for Montana Rail Link 12 MP called v2.9b which I have just downloaded from the Black Pages. I am about to start a session which will run for a few days, dependent on the Multiplayer Server actually working for once!. It is not that much different to Jib,s as I didn,t want to make huge changes. The route is the same so if you already have 2.9 you will only need to download the session. The only thing that bothers me is the Red Spider which may be caused by the new Chesapeake Locomotives of which I added two at the last minute. So if nobody can join my session I,ll have to take a look at it. Here are the changes From Jib,s session. All Industries have been reviewed and adjusted and further adjustments may be necessary after the first session. A few Industries have had their commodities changed. Big Mikes Shipping no longer handles General Goods. Winston Co-op no longer produces Grain. Diesel is produced at Exon near Billings and unloaded at Bozman LPG only although I may add another unloading point in a future version. LPG is only produced at Laurel and unloaded at Bozman LPG. The other thing I should mention is a reminder that some Industries are Lars which means that the Cars (un)load over a period of time and are not broken. You can even uncouple the locomotive(s) from the train and leave them there to be dealt with. These are the same as Jib,s version, Billings Tractors, Beattie Construction in Logan, Mikes Earth Movers in Belgrade and Vincents Plumbing on the Great Falls Branch Line. Rolling Stock, again very few changes. One additional set of Trailer Flats at Livingston and an additional rake of Frozen Meat cars at Billings which will add built in redundancy to counteract derailments. I also reinstated one rerail Portal as a kind of Insurance Policy which will usually replace one consist before it gives up. Locomotive Changes. All locomotives are in pairs except for one at Great Falls which performs Switching duties and four pairs designated for Coal traffic which have a booster power unit. One of these is a Conrail set at Livingston which again, is built in redundancy and can be used for other duties unless it is needed for Coal traffic. It just occured to me that I never added a second loco in Livingston Roundhouse. There are only two new Locomotives added which are a pair of Great Northern GP 30,s in Helena and a pair of the new Chesaspeake loco,s in Laurel. Overall by removing the third locomotive from a set and adding an additional pair there is an increase in the number of locomotives overall which once again adds to the built in redundancy. I think that,s about it. Naturally the Railway Infrastucture, signalling, speed restrictions etc!, Industries and scenery are unchanged. Now for the part you will not believe! (Or maybe you will,lol) While I was composing this post Multiplayer and Ichat went offline, No, really, you say in amazement!. So I may have to put my session on hold for an hour, day, week etc! I understand Jib would like to hold a session on Friday subject to there being no problems joining his sessiion and multiplayer being restored. If so I,ll take my session down for it.

Kewl Colour, I'll surly download yours and try it out. As for the spider, I am getting it too. It has to do with an SFX file in those Chessie locomotives. And as much as I like them, I might do away with them as soon as I can find a replacement.
 
Thats what I will probably do as well, Jib. Session is OK at the moment but it,s early days and I,ve only used two Industries so far.
 
Just downloaed the new MRL and Jib's ssesion however i cant play it since i get that annoying this cant be used for mp.....

The bug icon on the right is caused by one of the locomotives that was recently added to the session.
 
I've done mulitple database repairs even deleted and re downloaded the session and i still cant play. All the dependices are fine none are broken or have warnings.
