Amazing freeware route: Northern Europe Final + Installation guide

[Mavadelo]

I had heard about this route and tried to install it previously to no avail. There where always packages I couldn't find or where only available on a site that needed an account to download but gave no option to make such an account

than I discovered Northern Euorpe A on a German site which only needed 3 downloads that could be found easy. I installed it and it worked. Than, just because I felt like it and don't mind reinstalling stuff if I wreck my install, I decided to read the readme of Northern Europe Final a new look and try to install it on top of NEA, Again I went hunting for packs and could find all but one of them. But I discovered the same file with a higher version number (V5 instead of V2) and decided to try to use that one instead hoping it would be a full update to V2, so far this seems to be the case.

The files need to be installed in a certain order so I made a small tutorial

there is also a link uncluded to two scenario packs that will add 15 standard scenarios to the route

I also made a short imprssion but it was early and I was pooped, so the first 10 minutes give or take can be skipped

updated the guide with a download for the full monty, I have removed the package with scenarios since it uses so much 3rd party rolling stock that swapping is A: about an hour per scenario and B: it breaks the scenarios. If you still want to figure them out the download links are in the guide.
Pack 1: all needed files to install the game with a simple install manual

Well done Mavadelo on putting together this excellent guide. It is a very good route, certainly well worth a try. The sheer enormous size of the route, opens all sorts of potential for adventurous scenario creating.

This guide is so welcome because of firstly the difficulty (by oneself) of locating the required assets. The author has kindly done this work for you! And secondly, the order of asset installation is very important. It went horribly wrong for me installing the route the first time around without these instructions. With them all was good. :) So they are very welcome indeed. Just carefully follow this guide, and you should be well away with a nice new route in your game. Have fun playing it!

Great work in providing the manual with the links to the (available) downloads for Northern Europe but have you fully read the pdf's and read-me's that are in the downloads you uploaded to onedrive?

yes, all the materials are there. only one file is different from the original since it's an updated version of the original but works as it should. have tested the route from several points. I can't say it is completely bug free since the size of it makes that hard to do but all freeroams started without errors and have been driven for a decent amount of time to give me enough to say it is very playable and up to par with official DLC. All the files in the onedrive zips are the original zips with the original readme's and pdf's

btw authors permission has been asked, uploads of my own packages might be removed if not given. Had to upload them anyway so he can check them out. Kudos are given to author in my istructions in the package as well as is the mentioning I onlyprovide the files but non of it is my work
