Just like the title says, I thought i'd check back into the community for a bit after a 2 year "absence". Yes, it's been 2 years since I have last played Trainz (TS12), and now I see T:ANE has recently come out with new features like the animated junctions, swaying consists, water effects that...

I've noticed recently that since installing the recent hotfix, every time I start the game, there are constantly errors in JR content and it always moves around from content to content. For example, I start the game and my SD70MAC's are working fine, but when I close out of the game, they get...

I noticed after I installed the latest SP1 hotfix, there are no sounds in surveyor. Is this a bug or is it something fixable?

I'm thinking of upgrading TS12 to the absolute latest hotfix patch. Is it safe to install this? I don't want to have to reinstall Trainz like I did after SP1 came out.

I got the idea to make a thread where everybody could display their locomotive collections by railroad. Here's a couple to start off with... I'd be so happy if I had all of those in HO scale:hehe: You can post half of your collection if your computer specs can't handle all of it.

After I installed the latest patch for TS12, everything had failed for me, so I had to re-install the game. If you are having troubles with the game (or if something else happened) and need to re-install it, I now have a tutorial on my website that takes you thru the process of backing up the...

It seems like ever since i've installed SP1 into TS12, Content Manager and the game have been running slower, taking at least 10 or 15 minutes to open a tab in Content Manager along with looking at lists in surveyor. What am I able to do here?? I did an extended asset database repair yesterday...

After installing this patch, i've noticed that a lot of my Jointed Rail content has no running numbers and for some strange reason, every single fan spins at max speed (thinking the script might be messed up somehow). This is what I see when I click on a JR loco or freight car without running...

Just recently, I noticed this weird texture problem with lilb's composite gondola's. For some weird reason, the textures are messed up like this: All of the gondolas look like this. I would appreciate any help given about this problem.

I sent an email 3 hours ago to the support on the UP Dash 9 I bought on the Easter sale and I have not received any help. When I got it, it came with 2 of the exact same skins (it came with 1 very dirty and 2 of the same clean skins). I checked the texture maps in the gecko script files and the...

Does anybody know of a North American style turntable available anywhere? I'm looking for a turntable like the one seen in this picture: If there isn't one available, i'd really like to see a turntable like that with the turntable stubs and roundhouse sections like on the AJS roundhouse kit...

I'm looking for some ambient noises to use on routes. I would like to use an ambient sound of a mountain plains or some rural sound similar to that. Anybody know of any sounds like those?

Does anybody know how far apart railroad signals are placed? I want to get an accurate distance between signals and blocks on a route i'm currently working on.

I'm currently working on a route that has multiple small towns. What kind of buildings could I use for doing small to medium sized towns? I don't build those often enough to know. I'm just a track layer and a ground texture-er when it comes to route building :p

I'm using a barn by shortline2 on one of my current WIP routes, and I have no idea on how i'm supposed to use the barn library for all the windows and doors. Does anybody know how to use it?
