Hi folks, Having been an active Trainz player from around 2010 to 2019, I am considering returning to the world of Trainz subject to obtaining a machine that can manage it. For context, I started with Trainz 2006, then Trainz Mac 1 & 2, then T:ANE and I think I may have even invested in 2019...

Hi, I'd like to try reskinning a particular loco, purely for personal use. I've done simple reskins before, but on this particular loco the images are .im files. I normally do my reskins in paint.net which can open most image types but it can't open a .im and actually my PC doesn't even...

Hi, I bought TS19 on Black Friday in anticpation of buying a new, more powerful laptop, but it could be a month or two until I actually get a new machine. I'm concerned that the download link that was emailed to me will expire if I don't use it soon; is that so? Cheers

Hi, I'm considering finally investing in Trainz2019 as i'm hoping to upgrade my laptop in the next few months. Black Friday sales seem like a good opporutnity! I'm slightly confused about the options though. I can afford to go for the Platinum bundle at it's current sale price, but I'm really...

Does anyone know how long TRS is expected to last before being replaced? I'm considering upgrading but am very aware that most of the feedback I've heard so far is that it isn't a huge step up from T:ANE in any aspect, and I'm not aware of a significant amount of UK content being available that...

When 2019 was first announced, the spec requirements given made me think it was totally out of reach without significant upgrades, which simply aren't an option at the moment. However, looking at the minimum spec requirements, it seems I may have been wrong. My PC is as follows: Win 10...

Hi, I'm looking for scrap/rusty/derelict/very heavily weathered UK steam-era locos/wagons/rail vehicles for a route. Don't mind if they're scenery objects or rolling stock. Basically anything that I can dump on sidings to look neglected and forgotten about. I know of one scenery item brake van...

I'm looking for any type of buildings that are typical of the stone and brick structures found in Industrial West Yorkshire - not just factories/mills as I think I've asked in the past but also houses, farm-type buildings and any railway structures - in particlar, I'm after a steam era...

Hi, In Trainz Mac, you could right-click on an item and select 'duplicate', but that option doesn't appear to exist in T:ANE. Can anyone tell me how I can duplicate an item? Thanks

There are a couple of locos I'd like to reskin, purely for personal use. I can do it, but at least one has a few different livery options, controlled by superscript. Is it possible to add an option to the superscript, and if so, how do you go about doing it? Thanks

Hi All, I've got some beautiful routes in T:ANE but most are longer main-line runs (Duchy Days, Sheff - Leeds etc). Can anyone recommend a good layout for running smaller tank engines? Something like a country branch line would be ideal, or an industrial route. I do already have Ashburton which...

Hi All, I'd like to get the S&C T:ANE pack. I understand for those who owned it pre-T:ANE, there is a discount code which an be used when buying the latest version. Does anyone know how to get it? I was advised to check my emails and mytrainz account but couldn't see anything in either. Thanks!

I've downloaded the Smoothnose 37 reskin base for Pikkabird's 37s and corrected the thumbnail and horncover issues. However, I've now got an error with all my pikkabird 37s and also with a railfreight VAA van: ; <kuid:283805:37119> Validating <kuid:283805:37119> ! <kuid:283805:37119> VE48: This...

I've got a lot of content that's showing as having missing dependancies because there are KUIDs specified in the config which have been revised a few times and are now no longer listed on the DLS in their current form - for example, Kuid:12345:678 is specified in the Config, but only...
