nay, it dinna work. this is something else and it's getting interesting.

thank you for this information. i think it's personal muck up, but i've not got it yet. mostly, you know, i spend more time on games-modifying or getting them to run -- or so it seems. my steam counter says i've done thousands of hours on E.U. 4, but i don't remember them. : )

thanks, yes. i reinstalled to another disc. i'm thinking it's got something to do with win 10 and a recent update. i sure, yes, enough, that it is a pointer issue with addressing the exe itself. this, though, where i click the actual folder'd exe. very funny -- totally ignoring me, and i haven't...

thanks. i've been building computers and sweating windows blue screen since the 90's. i'm pretty sure this is a problem on my own end, and i think it's a logical problem of misdirection -- perhaps caused by a windows update. but, i posted this in case someone has the same problem.

yes, i think it was in the early nineties that i last had a virus, and the cleaner worked fine. i've run 22 but i've been busy writing and so it's think about it. i've always built my machine and always built it for trainz. but, you know, i've got a GT 1080 ti and an i7-3930 and 64 gbytes of ram...

LOL. i've been doing tranz for almost as long as you, starting with the original. yeah, anti-virus. but, this feels more like the 90's when i'd get an exe virus. like, nothing from the exe. and, of course every other exe runs, including all the older trainz. my intuition is to buy on steam and...

thank you. i'll do this. but, you understand that i specified that i had plus 22 working on my pc and nothing's changed except that it won't run. plus 19 runs fine.

TRS 22 Trainz Plus stand alone now won''t start at all -- no message, no nothing -- just pointer for a second and then nothing. Re-installed 22. Have TRS 19 and it will run. TRS 22 had run fine. ( membership up to date and has been for a while. )

nice. for me the mechanical problems were almost as bad as dealing with amateur clients... though your experience sounds much more complex and unforgiving than my simple spreads to the printer. i used to wander down central square and over and see the rails and dream about when this was...

oh, yes, i remember freehand when it was still, what, 'aldus'? i used indesign because the honolulu printer i used used it too and knew it's quirks, if not quarks. it's really neat being reminded of the processes we were enslaved to just to get something out that we intended. but, i loved doing...

gnarly -- especially the x-acto. back in the mid-fifties again just thinking about it. I used Illustrator for my first ad-shop work, sending eps files to the printer. i grabbed InDesign as soon as it hit compUSA, and that meant PDF's were well integrated into the program -- my printer got...

thanks, and zoobah. i too had my clients from jello -- 'word perfect', yes, and then 'microsoft publisher'. yes, they knew what they wanted... Thankfully, i've been able to produce books for friends and on PC and this was pretty cool. moments like squishing Optima to the page using Quark and...

scrutinizing yellow page graphics and then collecting business cards when i was 12, all for the looks of things. newspaper ads too. for a kid, very exotic stuff -- things i didn't understand made to be understood with images and composition. my earliest lessons. i ended up with an art MA and art...

jeepers, that's a job. i have a friend who worked donnelly in the summer. that was just about hefting boxes but it gave him extra money.

wow, yes, thanks for that. i thought i was the only one. yeah, probably, i'll find the cable when i'm looking for an old router... MFA boston was quite the place back in the sixties. it was either there or B.U. for art... BU for painters and MFA for art.
