We have decided to slightly delay the release of the Digital Download Version of TS2010:EE due to excessive memory usage on some routes that we feel negatively impacts on the game experience. We are now aiming for a release date of 23rd Nov.
Due to this product having the largest routes and highest quality content that we have worked with in Trainz history, testing has revealed some memory issues on 32 bit machines, where the game reaches the hard limits of the Operating System. In extreme cases, this causes a crash of the simulator. While this happens only after running sessions for long periods, we feel it is in the best interest of our community and customers to hold the release for a short period in order to fix these issues rather than distribute a flawed product.
Despite the team working all weekend to resolve this problem we still require more time to adequately implement and test the fixes and thus will continue working solely on fixing this issue over the coming week.
As we have more information we will update this thread.
We thank you for patience.
