Hi all, I have just downloaded a route from the DLS then set about downloading the assets that don't come with the route. The size of some of these assets is staggering, for instance why would I download a "wooden lifeboat that's 8.8Mb", there are also some other assets that say in the...

Hi All, I have just started TS19 and I clicked on "trainz settings" a Panel I have never seen before came up just like the database repair panel but it says "Updating Asset Translations" Is this a new thing or have I done something wrong? I have gone back to build 11951. Cheers, Bill69

Hi, Most industries will not allow height adjustment with the height adjustment tool, so to adjust the height I have found a work around. When the industry is first laid the height does not always match the track height. To correct this lay a piece of track over the industry track using the...

I am having lots of problems with AI sessions in build 111951. When programing a session on my test track I placed two trains and consigned two drivers in surveyor. I programmed the drivers with the schedule library, gave the drivers the order to copy from the schedule library then went into...

Can someone please tell me where the automatic backups are now stored? They used to be in the user data folder but now there is no user data folder. Cheers, Bill69

Just like all new versions of Trainz that have been released TRS19 is now more of a world builder program than a railway simulator. Things that worked with out problems in previous versions now have problems, (except the buildings and scenery). If I wanted a world builder program I would buy...

Has N3V disabled the smoke color settings in the config file for steam engines? All steam locos now seem to have the same color smoke. This is not very prototypical, older locos will usually have darker smoke than later ones, some because of the introduction of superheaters, some because they...

In TRS19 SP1 the tside turntable USA kuid:-25:922 has an extra stop in the config file. The stops at 35deg. and 215deg. should be edited out as there is no corresponding track. This happened in an earlier version but I thought it had been fixed, seems as though it has been carried over when...

Can anyone tell me how to control the chuff volume in a steam loco? I have two different locos on the same route with the same engine sound. One loco has chuff sound that is just as I like it, clearly audible, the other loco's chuff sound is very quiet, I can hardly hear it even when it is...

I've had enough, I am out of Trainz for a while at least. I might come back I don't know, but for now I have had enough. Hope you all enjoy the hassles that come along with every update. Bill69

I am trying to find an industry that took up quite a large space, it unloaded general goods at one side and had two tracks with animated cranes to load containers at the other side. Both the general goods and the containers were animated as they loaded or unloaded. It was available in TRS2004...

Hi All, I have a bit of a problem with my Windows 7 install, some features are corrupt so it means I have to reinstall windows 7. I have just bought myself a Kingston 240G SSD and would like some guidance as to whether it is better to install Windows on the SSD or reinstall Windows on the...

Do any other countries have a rail safety week? Checkout the web page below. http://www.tracksafe.co.nz/media/rail-safety-week Cheers, Bill69

Hi All, First I must state I do not wish to rubbish someone els's work here, but I feel I must make a statement about the construction of turnouts and ladder yards in Trainz. The first picture here is what I would call a gross over use of spline points. Author has gone to extreme trouble...

Hi All, I have been spending a lot of time checking which tags in the steam section of e-spec actually affect the performance of the loco. Some things I found are quite the opposite to what has been posted as a fix, especially for noisy safety valves blowing off. It has been said that if your...
