I had been running TRS2004 all evening last night testing some new skins. I exited Trainz, adjusted the color of the skin slightly, then reopened Trainz. I went to the Railyard to check the adjustment, and nothing appeared! Not one of my items was visible! The items names appear, but when I...

Since the version of the T&P/SSW East Texas Route I'm working on is based in the mid 50s, (1953-54 sounds right...) I'd like to be able to find some US autos from this era or before. I've got a few old Chevy pickups, some old Furys and station wagons, but even they are too "new." Does anyone...

Are there any nameable watertowers available anywhere? By nameable I mean one that would allow me display the name of the watertower on its side? Similar to how the stations and signs work... Thanks!

Having breifly used TRS2006, I seem to remember there being a "Replace" tool, making swapping items very easy... I kept having problems with TRS2006, so I went back to TRS2004... I was wondering if there was an easy way to replace the track I have already laid in my route with another track...

I wanted to post some updates of my East Texas route. The route is full scale, made from DEM data, and centered on the small town of Big Sandy (my hometown), which just so happens to be the crossing point of the two biggest railroads in this part of the state - the Texas & Pacific and the St...

In my prototypical East Texas route, I've come acrossed a situation I do not know how to fix. At one of the industries, an overhead loader and grate unloader are used to load/unload hoppers. The tracks form a simple "Y," with each track ending just past the loading area. The tracks can hold...

So I've got a ton of missing KUIDs somehow... ??? Anyway... Trainz is not finding any of them! Maybe you all can help...

I'm wondering how I can reskin the Mountain type locomotive that can be found of the DLS? I'm looking to do a T&P version. There is a version available on the DLS already, but despite it's claim to be a prototypical road number, it is not - at least not for a Mountain type. Furthermore, I'd...

I'd like to be able to reskin some of the TRS2004 built in content (namely the F7A, B, and the ATSF Super Chief passenger cars) These cars are the same as those used by the T&P, and I'd like to reskin them to T&P colors. I am having problems locating the files for these models. I can find...

For those of you who haven't heard of Trinity Rail, Trinity is Railcar manufacturer, repairer, and updater. (They also have other industrial branches.) In my East Texas layout, Trinity plays a larger role. They have several small shops all over the area, and a large one near Longview. I am...

As work slowly progresses on my East Texas T&P/SSW route, I find myself in need of more and more stuff not available on the DLS. One of the more important ones are the signals used by the SSW (Cotton Belt) in Big Sandy and along other parts of the line. A detailed photo is below... SSW Signal...

I've recently upgraded to TRS2006, but even with the latest drivers for my video card, I cannot get the OpenGL features to "Pass." Is there a work around for this? Or is there anything else I can use to get the custom content from the DLS? Thanks...

My copy of Trainz: The Complete Collection came in this weekend, and I've gone ahead and installed TRS 2006! Wow - what a change from the UTC I got used to... I'm having some issues with the Download Station though, & I can't view the Content Manager... What have I done wrong? I have TRS2006...

I've been searching on the DLS, but I can't find any of the portals I've read about... I'm building a NG layout with a SG interchange. I'd like to use the portals to run the SG trains out of the interchange yard and then back into the yard some time later... Any help would be greatly...

I'm looking for a some old T&P locomotives to run on my T&P/Cotton Belt junction route (if I ever get it finished...) Particularly, I'm looking for T&P #610. "The Texas & Pacific 610 is the sole surviving example of the earliest form of the super-power steam locomotives built by the Lima...
