Another thing that may not help, if we click too many times on the three dots in a vertical row to change train driving modes, Trainz gets mad and removes control of the train until it is brought to a complete stop. Then it usually gives control back to us to get the train moving again. This is...

You are quite resourceful! Your work is looking good. In a way your diorama reminds me of the groups that built modules that could be assembled together to make large layouts at conventions. A friend was involved with NTRAK -- N scale modules. Way off topic: I love those off road dump trucks...

Did a little more snooping. The train was in a siding that was about 1.8 miles long. The Maple St, Noble,OK crossing is about 1.3 miles into the siding. There was probably no way for the train to clear the crossing and stay within the siding. Possibly they could have split the train. How would...

I don't know the correct answer to the situation, but who is going to protect the engineer when a law enforcement officer tells the engineer to run the train past its authorized position on the tracks? Does the engineer lose his/her job responding to an emergency request?

Hmm. Crashing and freezing are much more useful terms than hacked. I was ready to share a fake news release from the US National Security Administration that claims to have uncovered a million dollar plot by foriegn infiltrators to hack your computer! So much for that idea ... Most of us users...

I miss seeing SP trains through San Luis Obispo county on the coastal route. UP hardly sends any trains through here.

It looks to me that in the content manager image you asked it to display what is not installed. Is that the screen you used to check the DLS?, as that CM setting will not display what is installed on your computer. You probably already know that.

I have a few TTTE DVDs. Always wanted to plot out the locations, but never did. Enjoyed the videos. Thanks. I did attempt to make a Trainz version of the original Awdry map, but didn't do well with the terrain. I was surprised how big the Island of Sodor turned out to be. The distances were...

If I remember correctly, I usually lower the terrain 1500 meters for that part of Colorado. That allows the mountain tops to be included. I should add that when I try to change the height of the world origin in surveyor, it doesn't seem to work the way I expect. So I use TransDem usually before...

I haven't checked the DLS assets individually for build numbers or if they're PBR or not. But I did eventually catch on that there are numerous TTTE and Sodor assets on the DLS. (I had said earlier that there weren't any.)

I frequently end up using edit right after i post a msg to correct something. I always love the old age comments. There's a fair number of us here. 😁

I changed the title under the avatar icon, apparently when we had extra permissions. It seemed to me that it was an avatar setting. I can't find it now. Sorry

That update has been on my Dell for 3+ days. No problems with my SSD, but haven't done any 50GB+ transfers. Removed now. Paused updates. After reading about the potential problem, I was preparing to do a huge transfer of files ... perhaps creating the situation that triggers the problem...

@EJB doesn't Jointed Rail let you re-download any item you purchased from them? No need to buy it again. All the stuff I've bought from them are on a list in my user account that allows me to DL them again if necessary .

I'm biased as I have a non-RR website that is hand coded. Not as many pages as other sites, but I've redone the page coding twice.
