Title: Help with Addons please?
Post by: Northsidebill on March 10, 2013, 08:40:18 pm

I am new to BVE and to Linux as well and am using OpenBVE. I have found a number of trains and downloaded them and want to install them but I cant figure out how.

Any help would be appreciated...

You've stated that you are using Linux and openBVE.  More information is needed to help you.
What is your hardware: CPU, RAM, GPU, etc?
Do you have a basic understanding of directory/folder structure and file types for your operating system?
Have you installed the correct openBVE program, railway, and train folder structure?
Do you have the openBVE dependencies + program installed and working?
See this page for help installing openBVE on Linux: http://web.tiscali.it/fopenbve/use/download_unix.html (http://web.tiscali.it/fopenbve/use/download_unix.html)
Do you have other openBVE routes and trains installed and working?
Are your openBVE train downloads in EXE, ZIP, or 7Z format? 
Have you installed/extracted these trains, each to their own \Train\subfolder?
