Support:

If you have a problem, please tell me using the contact form. All projects have been tested by at least 3 people so no problems should have been missed.

• Coupling: The couplers have been configured automatically using Mike Simpson’s RouteRiter (supported version). For this to work best, you must install an corrected default.wag file to the TRAINSET\DEFAULT folder.
• Braking: This release of the ME has a much more realistic braking setup. When you start an activity the brakes will take a lot longer than you expect to release. When making a short stop at a station it is recommended that you use dynamic brakes for stopping and locomotive brakes for parking.
• Sounds: The new SMS files are more detailed, especially with AI trains. Make sure you have sound settings set to high. It is also recommended to install one of the updated soundcfg.dat files.
• Consists & Activities: Most activities currently use old paths to ME1523, 1509, 1537. To help make the transition to the new pack easier, I have uploaded an automatic consist updater. You will need the Java Runtime installed to use it.
