Hi there! I'm pretty new to the Train Simulator community and was looking for any advice anyone can provide. I have a route that for three stations, the platforms are missing. I know this is because I am missing assets but for all intents and purposes, the route is drivable without these assets, not including these platforms. The rest of the clutter and scenery is there (benches, people, OHLE etc) but the physical platforms are not. I am (sort of) confident enough using the route builder tool to add assets to a route and am working on a cloned version of the original in case I mess it up! I just want to add the platforms themselves but cannot find just a simple platform asset that I can use. I can find ramps for platforms, and whole stations (with the platforms, buildings etc all combined) but not just the platforms on their own. I am looking for some modern looking UK platforms to add to the Berks and Hants to Bristol and Penzance Heathrow branch stations. I'm not too bothered about them looking 100% perfect just really want to have a route including the Heathrow branch which this Berks and Hants route does contain - just need to get some platforms to add. If people do know of any pure platform assets that I can use, if they could say which items need to be ticked on the assets menu and the name of the asset as it appears on the menu on the left hand side of the route editor, that would be extremely helpful. Thank you for taking the time to read this and thanks in advance for any support you can provide!
Platforms are not found in the same place as the ramp ends as they are "loft" objects which you can create to your choice of length and with curves. Loft objects are located under the icon with a track symbol on it in the top left pop-out box, and then selecting the icon that "sort-of" looks like a platform in the pop-out box below it. There is usually a choice of widths listed (in metres). I'm not very good at explaining detail like that, I hope that makes sense. John
I would say that you need this free pack from Chris Trains as it is a requirement for this route. ChrisTrains Free Scenery Is this the route that you are talking about if so make sure that you have all the requirements which there are lots of?

I have just installed this route and TS Tools says Im missing RailWorks\Assets\JustTrains\CommonLibrary\RailNetwork\Signals\OtherIndicators\JT_LU_Rail_Gap_Repeater.bin, I cant find any reference to this asset in Google search. I presume it would be a part of JT Metroline or enhancement but I have reinstalled them and no luck, does anyone have any ideas? Also it has 2 incorrectly spelt assets paths as well in Kuju Railsimulator, it shows Containes01 and Containes02 (should be Containers) but these can easily be pointed to the correct assets using TS Tools
I just did a search for JT_LU_Rail and its in Assets\JustTrains\LULibrary\RailNetwork\Signals\OtherIndicators
Is there not a set of assets available in the Marketplace for station scenery. Also these stations I am sure have been modeled before maybe not in the era that you desire. Respectfully
The OP is looking for lofts. I was going to write a short guide of how to do it but I was tired and left it. Really they should be looking for the missing lofts rather than placing their own anyway.
Thank you Peter I should have thought to do that myself, I think I have got used to not searching my assets as the install is so large that it is pointless but I could easily have just searched the JT folder, thanks for taking time to have a look. It looks like this is another incorrect path for an asset then, this seems to be a common problem with TS, Im not sure why anyone would want to mess with pathways of assets other than for reskins but this one is an entirely different product folder, an update perhaps maybe.
