    Going from Dial-up to WIFI

    Hello people, Yesterday, I finally gave up my dial-up connection. I gave up after thirty years of satisfactory internet for my needs. So yesterday, the man attached a wifi modem/router combination to my relatively ancient HP desktop running Windows 7. (I know, Windows 7) ! But I'm a fairly...

    Can I easily copy my 9 Gig folder to a new memory stick?

    Hello, I have a new 32G memory stick. I'd like to know how to copy a 9 Gig World folder (Trainz 2004,SP4 2370) to this stick. Is it preferable to use just copy and paste? (Windows XP). My computer has only 1G of memory. But I have copied this World folder before (years ago) to a second hard...

    Hello, My Firefox browser today started showing little boxes with (from what I looked up on Google), are Hex codes inside. This is on these Auran forums, and also on at least one other forum I go to. These are only in certain places, for instance where the words that say Thread and Posts...

    Is it possible to format and partition a 160GB drive to only 80GB?

    I know this sounds silly, but my Trainz hard drive died, so I ordered a same model 80GB hard drive from an Ebay Seller . But I was quickly sent a 160GB drive. I had previously used an 80GB for the Trainz and a 60GB for backups and other stuff. this gave a total of about 140GB. I have always...

    Any other Enginesounds like this?

    Hello, I have a British steam engine in my Trainz 2004 , called the Earl of Berkeley. This was done by Skipper1945. I really enjoy the engine sound which has the KUID of 116296:16444. It is unlike the usual Trainz (2004 era) steam engine sounds which overlay each other and sound a little...

    Hello, I have two routes, B-Project 1-5 by Asser, and a recently download one called Westhaven Trams 1-1. They both contain complex pier dependencies made by Solagon. The general numbers are in the kuid2:193038: range. (I am using Trainz 2004, the last update). These have German names, so I...

    This is Trainz 2004, but maybe better discussed here?

    The general problem is that a route that I have had a long time (Yorkshire Plains) now crashes to the desktop a lot. Certain facts: Just before I noticed this problem, I had my first ever crash to desktop while looking at locomotives in Railyard. I was looking at two similar UK locos one after...

    My Firefox showing the forum at lower resolution

    Hello, Just this afternoon (Saturday) my Firefox is showing the Trainz forums similar to a lower resolution. In other words, it looks like 800x600, and the button choices are wrapping around on the screen. All other websites are looking right, and the Firefox user interface is totally right...

    Any objects to make semi-relistic factory signs ?

    Hello people, I have been trying to add some signs to factories in my downloaded layouts (in Trainz 2004), and I am finding it hard. I have the usual "Type On Signs" which seem to produce only standard text lettering... Otherwise I have a bunch of company "logos" (from the DLS) which are never...

    Possible to get this Trainz 2009 running ?

    Hello friends, I bought a Trainz 2009/2010 two-pack today (sort of realizing that they wouldn't run on my computer) but at least I would own these newer versions of Trainz for the future! My system is an Abit NF8-V2 motherboard, 1 Gig memory, a Sempron 754 running at 2.2 Ghz (don't laugh, it...
