    MacOS 26 without Sound in Trainz 22

    No other issues that I can find. Just the sound. If losing sound is a dealbreaker, then wait for a fix. If not, it should be safe to go for it. Matt

    MacOS 26 without Sound in Trainz 22

    Can confirm, no sound in Tahoe here either. My Mac isn't my main Trainz system yet, but I guess I should've checked the forums first. Matt

    Moving a metric ton of content to a new system - is there a better way?

    Alright, I've already posted quite a bit on the forums here about my little "adventure" in switching to a Mac after being a lifelong Windows user. And after nipping a little performance issue in the bud on my M4 Max MacBook Pro (pro tip: if you're having Trainz performance issues on a system...

    Where is my saved screen shot?

    There's also a setting you can turn on that automatically uploads your screenshots to the Trainz Gallery for easy posting to the forums. Matt

    Trainz 2022 Needs to Move Forward—Not Backward

    I've been in Trainz since the TRS2006 days. What immediately set it aside from other sims was how simple Surveyor was compared to, say, MSTS. Surveyor 2.0 is cool, but it's quite complicated, I think. I can see where it could come in handy for those that take this seriously, DLC developers, for...

    Trainz Update Announcement (SP6)

    The hotfix is being tested now, and users are reporting vastly improved performance. So hopefully that means they'll be sending it out in the next couple days. I installed SP6 on my M4 Max Mac (PC still has an older version) and noticed the game hit a brick wall, with frame rates easily being...

    USA Pics

    Nothing special here, just my regular "I'm still alive" post. However, this is among my first screenshots from my Trainz Mac setup. A 16" MacBook Pro with the M4 Max can run TRS22 at ultra settings and still get a buttery smooth frame rate on even more dense routes like Coal Country (that is...

    Jango, Gianfranco Messaggi passed away this morning

    How terrible! Jango's routes are some of my absolute favorites to run on. A great loss indeed. My condolences to Gianfranco's friends and family. May he rest in peace. Matt

    Show off your reskins!

    Hey, we all gotta start somewhere man. I still haven't figured out kitbashing. I haven't reskinned anything in a good while (all my Trainz content is still on my retired PC while I figure out my new Mac setup), but some of my early work (not counting TRS2006 paint shed stuff) was... rough... to...

    Show Off Your Routes *Potential For Large Screenshots*

    Great stuff everyone! I'm hoping to rejoin this thread once I get all my stuff moved over to my new Mac. I'm itching for some route building. Matt

    Show off your reskins!

    Great stuff DART! I have been following this thread for years (decades?), and your work has come a very long way. Looking like proper payware quality stuff! Very, very nicely done. Matt

    Has anyone tried to stream Trainz from a Windows host to a Mac?

    That's been my biggest gripe with TurfFX. Looks good up close, looks terrible far away. And yeah, I used to be a heavy user of grass splines, TurfFX is a massive improvement over those for sure. I can't stand using them now, but it seems like the lighting in modern versions of Trainz really...

    Has anyone tried to stream Trainz from a Windows host to a Mac?

    Good to know. I've started the tedious process of copying my content from my PC to an external drive to eventually move over to the new Mac (over 700 gigs worth!), and I've been using TurfFX quite extensively in my projects. Sounds like, hopefully, an alternative means I won't be without my...

    Has anyone tried to stream Trainz from a Windows host to a Mac?

    Bumping my own thread here, but I thought I'd share an update. I'm posting this from my new M4 Max MacBook Pro, with the 14 core CPU, 32 core GPU, and 36 GB of RAM. Yeah, I may have gone a little overboard, but oh well, I love her. One of the first things I did was install the trial of...

    Has anyone tried to stream Trainz from a Windows host to a Mac?

    Thanks guys. Unfortunately my PC is running Windows 11 Home, so no MS Remote Desktop for me. Since the writing of the original post, I did attempt streaming Trainz to my MBP through Moonlight, which uses Nvidia Gamestream, meant for their Shield devices. Actually played quite nicely and...
