Hi all. Just replaced my old intel 4690K system with a shiny Ryzen 3700x -with a Wraith Prism cooler- and a Gigabyte X570 Gaming X mobo. Using stock speeds the system is whisper quiet, but as soon any load is put on the Cpu the fan ramps up and it sounds like a damned Vacuum cleaner (it's that...

Hi guys. Here's an example....I have 2 baseboards with differing heights and i have placed a tunnel between the 2 with a gradient of e.g. 1.5 degrees. The problem i have is how to bury the tunnel so it's not seen, yet does not fill it in with ground. The smooth spline height does not work as it...

This image shows an AI train with the dynamic brake engaged whilst accelerating. This happened after a stop sign is cleared and the train continued it's journey. The really odd thing is that after the session was reloaded, the dynamic brake was cleared and the power output gauge showed 0...

Hi all. Is there a script,command, whatever, that effects which end of a train couples to a consist. If i want an AI train to couple Cab forward (e.g. North facing), or Engine end (South facing), is there anyway to do this. I know for multiple engines I can simply setup one engine to be...

Hi guys. I took advantage of the price drop and purchased 2019. I successfully imported an old Austral Bay route v7a which i have been plodding around since way back (a long way back). It's gone through it's inception of each trainz release -apart from Tane which it refuses to show but works in...

Hi. Looking on the Trainz Portal site the oldest version i can download -of which i have- is Trainz 2009. Is it possible to purchase Trainz 2006 and Trainz 2004 (updated to the latest versions) from NV3? My Trainz 2006 and 2004 are on disks and are looking their age through usage. Now stored in...

Hi all. Is there, or is it possible to have a rule that triggers all or selective movable bridges to a close position. As far as i know all bridges that move are in the open position by default, this make is difficult to issue commands to a driver to navigate, as an open bridge effectively...

Hi all. Quite a while ago i posted a link to a patch that enabled windows 7 32bit to use all installed ram, and not just upto 3.25MB. There now exists newer patches for Vista+SP2 32bit, Win7 32bit, Win7+SP1 32bit, and 1 for Windows 8. All can be downloaded from -...

Hi all. What follows may seem long-winded but i'm trying to explain as it forms in my head :confused: I have a need for a search/replace utility that can utilise Boolean. An example is i need to replace all instances of (x.xx, x.xx, xx) - random floating point and integer numbers- in many...

Hi guys. I've got 2 identical 22" 16:10 lcd monitors and have run Trainz and other games in 3360x1050 resolution. Whilst the immersion factor has increased exponentionally - things such as people actually look normal size, and the whole cab is around 38.5" across :wave: - there exists the...

Hi all. If you haven't already, don't forget to clean out your system. If your not confident or familiar enough with the innards of your computer system, please get someone else who is. As ambient temperatures rise, so do your system components. Built-up dust overheats the system and slow things...

Hi all. Please bear with me as this goes on a bit :o but it does apply to any trainz version that uses DX9 and above. Having recently received TRS2010 ( thanks to Zec for helping me out :wave: ) and i'm getting 2012 next week - i find myself quite dismayed at the in-cab Anti-Aliasing...

Hi guys. I received the latest newsletter which offers a warehouse clearance sale. Trainz 2010 is up for sale at $9.95. Not wishing to miss such a bargain (as i don't have 2010), i elected to purchase said item, and promptly 'Added to Cart'. The next screen that pops up is the purchase page...

I installed linux Mint V.13 and the latest version of Wine (V.1.4) last night, and was extremely suprised at well Trainz performed. On differing Linux distro's there was always something to hold Trainz back - whether it was buggy sound or usually sluggish graphics, it never (for me), performed...

Hi all. First off i'd like to thank JCitron for the encouragment needed.... :wave: I'm not sure which section this should be posted in, so i'll dump it here and let the sparks fly :o What i write here is for your personal reference. I must make clear that i'm not encouraging anyone to break...
