Post Lets Play SO6 - StartIt Mod Season Five & Jumps Schedule!
Hi there, just to let everyone know that I have started a series on YouTube and would love some feedback, hints, tips, etc to help me along! American flat season, first season, non-bred horses. Should be a good journey towards the Triple Crown hopefully.

Had some issues with microphone (lost the first episode) and upload glitches (graphical mainly) which should be solved from Ep 2 onwards. Episode 1 is up already, 2 through 6 should be up over the next week or two depending on editing and upload issues - hope you enjoy!

Season Five is now live (Season five alive! Reassemble Stephanie! #AlmostFilmQuote)

Ep 1 - Faith and hope
Ep 2 - Picking up the pace
Ep 3 - Interesting times
Ep 4 - Swiftly moving on
Ep 5 - Questions to be answered
Ep 6 - Back at Churchill Downs

Ep 8 - Going for glory
Ep 9 - Simple Chaos

Excellent. I have made this a sticky so it doesn't get lost.

PS. It looks like you have rails missing. This usualy means your courses need re-exporting.

Ahh thanks, I have installed some mods such as Start It and some retextures but then updated the game. I'll have to look into seeing if I can get this issue sorted... I knew it looked different but couldn't figure out why.

Episode 2 is up, and also added to the first post for easy access.

We're up to Episode 4 now and there are a few queued up ready to go live!

I have sorted the graphics issue with a complete reinstall and update of the game, followed by the mods in order. Hopefully this makes the game look and play better with no conflicts in a few episodes time.

Oh and also look for the other sticky post with Sabella's playthrough - it's been great fun watching her series and I encourage you all to do so!

Good work.

It may be worth running the batch export process to fix your courses (rails etc.).

Browse the COURSES folder and temporarily move all racecourses that were not modded to another temporary destination. You should then be left with just the modded US racecourses.

When you plan not to use your PC for a while run the 'BATCH EXPORT.EXE' file in your STARTERS ORDERS 6 folder. This will re-export all racecourses in the COURSES folder. It will take a long time. Possibly an hour or so depending on the number of courses and CPU speed. It creates a log file named 'batch process.txt'.

This should fix your rail problems.

Thanks for the advice. I have been doing quick exports on each course that have had rail issues, but I didn't think about batch exporting. I'll probably sort that out in the next few days when I can bear to stay off my pc for an hour or so.

Post Re: Lets Play SO6 [Latest: Episode 13]
Okay well the point of this series was to go for the Triple Crown and also get more into breeding and hopefully get feedback on that side of things from the viewers so I can improve. The second goal is long term, but the first actually starts now... get ready for:

Episode 13: First steps :D
