    Default BNSF Scenic Bob Pickering Activities Missing Paths

    Hello all, again. I have been running a few Acts on SLI BNSF Scenic lately and decided to utilize one from the collection of Bob Pickering, here in the F/L. After trying to run the "BNSF 1033 East, it loaded up to the display screen then posted the error that OR Cannot Continue. I tried another from the same set and got the same type of error of Paths Missing. I looked through the Paths from the downloads and no such Path exists for either Activity. I downloaded the set again last evening, but had the same result(s) after the New Install. The file is: sliap.zip
    The SLI Activities work just fine. The OR Error log is included below,
    OpenRailsLog.zip

    A path repair is needed here. Sometimes the starting point or something else that worked in MSTS does not work in OR. Just open up the path in the Trackviewer and look at the starting point..make a small adjustment and see what happens...perhaps the starting point is in the wrong spot, or there is some other problem. I just downloaded that specific pack and looked at the paths for BNSF 1033 East, they are all present in the pack...your log does not state the path is missing, just that OR cannot find some main track nodes and therefore cannot start an AI train --- so it logs as an invalid path.
    Cheers, Gerry

    Oh, that is good to know. I meant to state that I was going to try using the OR Track Viewer to repair the paths, it seems to have worked for the Amtrak #7 Activity. I will see what happens, I have seen the AI's pass so far, so it seems that the Repair Paths worked.
    Looks like I may be able to Carry On as usual.

    Thank you Gerry, again, for that insight.

    Those activities are all dated 2006, which is version 1 era of the route. Since then, there has been 3 more versions (V2, V2 + Boeing plant patch/loco upgrade/Builder bundled/outright replacement of earlier V2 activities, and ORTS)

    'Install and go' of old acts is not practical anymore.
