    I have been downloading various add-ons for MSTS. So far, all of the Activities installed seem to be working well. Where I get into problems is with the add-on cars. For some reason, some of them are available to add in the activity editor, but some are not.

    Does anyone else have had this problem? How can it be fixed?

    Let me know the ones that work and the ones that do not. I will go from there. I have an idea, I think :D :D

    Figured it out !!!!

    I explored the *.wag file of various freight car files and noticed the following:

    [​IMG] The cars that worked in the activity editor had the line Type ( Freight ) in the *.wag file

    :( The cars that did not worked in the activity editor had the line Type ( Carriage ) in the *.wag file

    I changed the line Type ( Carriage ) for Type ( Freight ) and Type ( Passenger ), works like a charm. I was trying to import the Superliner Series found in www.train-sim.com/login.htm

    Now time for another question…

    Sounds good. That is what I do on a lot of them. Some don't have all the files included or have to be renamed.
