Yes, he was Italian and was one of the founding members of TrainZItalia and a great friend. His real name was Gianfranco (a composite name that in English should be something like "John Frank"; there are many such names in Italian). His nick came from the spaghetti western movie "Django" (1966).

The Sherman Hill v2.1a is always available at TrainZItalia. https://www.trainzitalia.it/forum/index.php?/files/file/348-sherman-hill-version-21a-ts12tane/ It works in TRS19 and 22, but there are issues with the plane-type vegetation and with the Hermosa Tunnel that sank into the ground (don't...

It's a pity that many such assets were available on the DLS for decades and, having been used in a DLC are now marked as "Packaged" or "Payware", even though they were not made for that DLC. Their version index has been increased, their build number has not: many have trainz-build set to 1.3...

What I really would like, since N3V still allows uploading build 3.7 assets to the DLS is having some indication of their LOD-less status in Content Manager (since having a dedicated warning seems to be an impossible task, marking them with a warning would be enough).

Regardlesss of whenever this is done, it would always be too late!

That's exactly my point! In the best case, in order to get a "Packaged" asset you end up having to download several routes you are not interested in just to have a trash bin that has been available for decades on the DLS. Now, I love almost everything that moves on rails and I have no issue...

Not having DLS assets (NOT custom-made assets) labelled as "Payware" or "Packaged" would be nice :cool:

Merry Christmas to everyone!

May I ask if you downloaded these assets at TrainZItalia and which issues they show?

I also have the same identical issue with one of the sessions I made years ago for the Sherman Hill route. There are a dozen trains that are supposed to meet the Portland Rose as it travels from just south of Cheyenne to Laramie, but there are no drivers at all (not even the player's driver)...

The A691 is an old model and needs updating: unfortunately, real life leaves little time for our hobby. I don't even know the locomotive works in the most recent Trainz releases: it's not my favorite Italian locomotive and I think I last used it to check its compatibility with TS2010. IF (and...

Unfortunately, most electric locomotives found around the world (at least, those designed after the 1920s) have more than 8 throttle notches. Just to make a few examples: These are the speed-tractive effort of a E.656 locomotive (the last non-electronic Italian locomotive): it has 20 notches...

When I see one of these (all too often: someone at Trenitalia also likes chartreuse) my optic nerve needs a few minutes to readjust... :)

Yes, and this would be the only way to have a riotous bunch like us Trainzers to follow some rule. Do you remember TRS2004? It added shadows for rolling stock. Since the very start, Auran stated that the shadow mesh should be a simplified version of the main mesh. Many users didn't care about...

How many times has this been requested, with no reply at all from N3V (and Auran before them)?
