Hey guys I tried, but I am not doing too well When I drive routes (the excellent stuff you guys create), I always enjoy the drive, and I never pay attention to the routes, or how they were built. Now that I am building my own route, I am getting stuck with the fundamentals. I started with one...

I woke up to my cellphone buzzing, ah... an email. The new TMR17 trailer. I watched it, and i realised it makes me sad. Why? I was very fond of 12, i wanted to keep it forever. Eventually, this year, I caved, I don't want to get left behind all you guys. I got T:ANE. I got used to it's quirks...

Hi everyone I have read through the catch0 tuts, and some others, but I don't seem to "grasp" how to do a crossing, rail over rail that is. I have a dual track setup, and a turnout, meaning that the return track crosses an existing track. How do I handle crossings? How do I signal crossings...

Hi everyone, Since I don't know anyone personally who have remotely the same interests as me, there no one I can share the route that I have been building on my own every night for the last 3 weeks so far :) I know these are screenshots, but this is more related to surveyor than anything else...

Hi I have 10 boards, with a seriously (awesome!) set of tracks, some are one way, some are bidirectional. I layed the tracks, made the junctions, added switch levers a few industries so far, now I notice how hard signalling can be. Worked my way through the tuts at trains.0catch.com, but Im...

gday In terms of route building, I find that the included assets(if thats what I may call it) in surveyor is sufficient. But Lately, there are lots of free and payware addons I would like to use. My question, and reason for not just jumping in and using it is quite simple... How would one...

Hi I have spent all morning browsing and searching, and while there are so much to read and learn on the forums, including some folks with great tuts on specific topics, there is nothing newbies can refer to when building a track. It took me DAYS to figure out by myself how to actually make a...

Hey Guys & Girls I am almost sure I am stupid, because I cannot for the life of me figure out what I have done. Have spent more than a week working hard on a route, and made some major advances today. I save periodically, and it worked fine all the time... But now, if I go to "Routes" and...

Hi I am busy working hard to become a route builder, so I hope this is the right place to ask. ;) I have a problem or three, which might or might not be related. Please have a look at a screenshot with relevant issues visible in it. http://vudu.za.net/marlon/marlonza_20100426_0037.jpg...

Hi, Im new to Trainz, and I can control it "ok". But I just use throttle, and the main brake... many other levers I don't even use. I also can't stop the train when loading and it results in reversing and going forward untril i get it right... So, is there a thread somewhere, or a guide of some...

Hi everyone. Im new to trainz (and train sims in general) so bear with me! Ive just gotten used to controlling my train and plain with whatever the default install gave me (apparently sp1 is included with me 2006). I got this dvd as a gift, but now I see that im a few years behind. How does...
