ya best gets it, at least if you work in the AE or RE. btw, that's the acronym for MSTS Auto Loader Tool.
Seriously, how long does it take you to get into an activity to edit it. Open the tools, select Act Editor, file, etc. bla bla bla.
I added MALT to my right click 'send to ' menu, right-clicked an act, sent it to MALT and was in the selected activity in about 3 seconds from opening the activity folder of the route with nothing else needing to be done.
The amazing thing I just found out was the RE comes up almost instantly the same way .. by right clicking on a trk file. Absolutely phenomonal .. and they said it couldn't be done.
Actually you can associate the .act file with it and simply double click the act to open it directly, but I use Wordpad on them as much as the AE, so decided to do it in the round-about way above.
No matter how you do it .. talk about a time and frustration saver and the price is even right.

OH...MY...GOD!!!
Robert, even if the guys in Switzerland discover the fundamental particles and forces of the universe in their new particle accelerator, it won't top this!!!
)And if they do create a black hole and we all disappear, MSTS2 will never come out!! )
