    Problems with Linux

    According to the Economist one of the foundations of UNIX has been compromised. Apparently the maintainer had a spot of ill health and someone volunteered to assist him. For the first year everything was fine about two years after they started a Microsoft person noticed that SSH was taking 50...

    Content for lower end machines.

    I thought I'd start a thread for content suitable for lower end machines. First is if you're interested in UK rolling stock then take a look at my 17_5 assets. Use manage content open preview asset to select assets with a low triangle count. Check them for LOD as well. Stick with content...

    MSVCP140_ATOMIC_WAIT.DLL is missing

    The answer is here: https://forums.auran.com/threads/trs22-exe-system-error.175707/post-1995138 However could someone update the documentation to say it is required when installing TS22? Perhaps even on the download page in mytrainz. It isn't an obvious requirement to someone who is new to...

    Is 8 gigs of GPU memory enough on a mid range GPU?

    Vidia is currently making a lot of money for AI cards, they sell at ten times the cost of manufacture. their cards such as the RTX 3060 come with 8 gigs of memory. Intel and AMD midrange cards come with 12 or 16 gigs of memory. Currently running older content I'm seeing 5 gigs of memory being...

    GPUs and getting power to them.

    nVidia apparently has been having problems with getting the connectors to the RTX 4090 to work reliably. Some 4080 and 4090 now use a 12VHPWR standard connector. Some manufacturers are now recommending using a hair dryer to warm the cables before trying to bend them in place. Even systems...

    Stable long term version?

    Some software designates some versions as stable long term versions. Does N3V do this? The problem comes when building a route and the latest update screws something major up. Or is the solution to only use TANE or TS19 for route building? Thanks John

    My wagons

    My wagons come in five different basic models. First came the originals with the tops and undercarriages in one mesh. I tried to keep the poly count down so the undercarriages are not as detailed as they could be. Second came tops mounted on Jack Barber's high detailed steel bogey. Jack...

    cleaning up local data

    I have a drive that is dedicated to local data which should be in TS22_content. However in there I have a folder called build "8obct7fb1" which contains things like packages, original etc. and I'm not sure what is important and what can be deleted. Thoughts? Thanks John

    LogoFAIL UEFI malware

    Gentle heads up. Some bright spark has created a method of compromising the UEFI boot to install malware. Basically the image is overwritten. Because this happens before boot up it is extremely difficult to detect and Win 10 and 11 have no defence against it. Microsoft's UEFI Secure Boot...

    Dell 5820 with P4000

    My current box won't run win 11 so I noticed Dell refurbished had a tower that would. The cost was $661.71 can or $477.35 US which was cheap enough. I dropped in a used 10 TB HGST used drive from Amazon around $100 US and just for the heck of it tried running TS22 with the built in graphics...

    Notes on toys for backing up

    I have a number of computers lying around that do different things. I dabbled with a Raspberry Pi 4 for a while, using an external SSD at least it was somewhere I could dump files to move from one system to another but I found it was not quite as user friendly as I'd like and much of the...

    Errors when updating to suggested updates.

    "No prebuild data found for this build number." being able to cut and paste might be an improvement. Currently TS22 is giving all sorts of odd errors. I'm feeling tempted to go back to TANE which was at least was more stable. Suggestions please. Thanks John

    What I want for Christmas LOD on bogies

    There are a number of old bogies floating round such as KUID2:523:106154:1 which if they had a simple LOD added might improve performance for many users. Thanks John
