It sounds as though you have a fairly recent PC if you have 64 GB DDR5 RAM, it may help solve your problem if we could know what CPU and GPU combination you have. Is it SSD or M.2 NvME storage, or a platter hard disk perhaps that you are running Trainz from. I don't think that static or dynamic...

I too am an older person, well into my 60s, I really enjoy trying to make my routes both realistic and recognizable from places in Google Earth. It's not science it's creativity. I used to drive trains for Vicrail and then V/Line in Melbourne and regions and a change of scenery always stopped...

Phil's merge is only part of it, there are quite a few NSW branches which can also be merged to the Main South. I spent some time putting it all back together last night. The whole route (minus Crookwell and Taralga) South North cheers Graeme

Those are not symptoms of being hacked. If you don't know for certain what is causing a problem, misinformation is not going to help solve it. As Forester states, the symptoms are more in line with changed settings under the Developer tab

32GB RAM is usually enough, but H222 was talking about static virtual memory as opposed to dynamic virtual memory, where Windows generally allocates too little dynamic virtual memory.

I don't see anywhere that says the computer was tested or not. All computers are made as cheap as possible to suit the retailers price points and maximise profit margins, whether it be a $500 or a $5000 computer. You'll find that very few computers are actually tested, maybe one or two out of a...

MSI make some good gaming laptops which come with an RTX4060 8gb starting from $1399 AUD. That GPU would be the minimum for good performance in Trainz. 512gb storage is a little small for Trainz, so I would recommend a fast external drive of 1 or 2tb or talk to the store about upgrading to a...

@dangavel I have gone through all of the Centrecom PCs at $2499 and personally, I would choose a PC with either the Core Ultra 7 (Minataur) as it has the latest model 15th generation processor, (updated core i7) or the Core i9 (Nereus) which will provide huge CPU performance. Both have 32gb 6000...

Illawarra South Coast New South Wales: A quite large route with available sessions covering the area of Jannali to Cronulla, Bomaderry and Moss Vale New South Wales. It's also quite popular with over 20000 downloads https://forums.auran.com/threads/illawarra-south-coast-nsw-australia.165104/

You can do more things faster in Trainz with more memory. I increased my RAM to 32gb to allow me to merge large routes up to 2.5gb without failing, it also had the benefit of making Trainz operate more smoothly. I know of at least one person who says 64gb is the best amount of memory and he...

@dangavel There are a lot of great systems around the $2500 mark Centrecom has https://www.centrecom.com.au/centre-com-minotaur-core-ultra-7-265kf-rtx-4070-gaming-pc-with-windows-11-license...

If you need to delete payware packages DLC, use this https://online.ts2009.com/mediaWiki/index.php/Help:In-game_Downloading#Complete_DLC_Listing to find the corresponding package from the Complete DLC Listing. Delete the package or SCxxxx folders you no longer require and perform a database...

My PC regularly loads route backups of over 2 gigabytes, unzipped and using drag and drop onto CM (can't use .cdp as the file size is too large). I don't play around with swap files or use dubious external "doctor" apps which seem to do more harm than good. Your PC specs will definitely have an...

I know this is for Victoria, but it gives an idea of which signals were used for a particular purpose. Some of the principles will be the same though SA may have used different signal sets. https://victorianrailways.net/signaling/signalhome.html Hope this helps in some way cheers Graeme
