    Getting Backup Restores to Work Properly.

    One of the routes with it's session is the one I forgot to make a .cdp file for, however; I have the backup folder (with the correct KUIDs) and the tarzc files. The Wiki article on restoring the actual backup wasn't really helpful because following those steps the route still doesn't appear in...

    are there REALLLLLLY any NYC routes on trainz 2019/2022

    Well in that I have no idea. This could be an opportunity for you to take your own route build for a NYC mainline. There's probably thousands of photos out there from different eras that could inspire you. I'm probably the most noob that ever noobed in Trainz but that never stopped me from...

    are there REALLLLLLY any NYC routes on trainz 2019/2022

    Check NY routes created by Approach Medium. They are on his website and they are a very reasonable priced. Approach Medium also has a great YouTube channel where he showcased his routes has did some great tutorials. Since he is a New Yorker he does a heck of a job replicating the locations...

    Not possible to move the local data folder (mounted volume drives) Linux Mint 22.2 (zara)

    So then I assume there is no answer to my question of mapping to my physical SSD that is a mounted physical drive (and not the main drive)? Nor where Trainz stores the editing folder in Linux Mint (like that is in Windows under the documents N3V folder). Well that's 2450 hours of my life I...

    Not possible to move the local data folder (mounted volume drives) Linux Mint 22.2 (zara)

    After much hair pulling out Trainz does appear to be working now for me (tons of issues I have to sort out), but a question I have is in the title. Trainz does not include mounted volume drives in Linux Mint. Since those live outside of the main disk drive. Any time I paste in the volume I...

    Trainz 22 PE (build 132316) Environment Screen Will Not Load

    So I have tried the following Proton versions: Hotfix Experimental Beta 10.0-2 9.0-4 None of these work with my versio nof Trainz. So despite what ProtonDB says about this working, for me my version of Trainz is 100% unplayable. I guess I am too damn stupid at my age to figure things out...

    Trainz 22 PE (build 132316) Environment Screen Will Not Load

    I believe this is a Proton issue. None of the ones I have used with the MANGOHUD=1 gamemoderun %command% works at all. I must assume then that Trainz is also borked with Linux Mint 22.2 (WILMA) Cinnamon. I ma not smart enough to troubleshoot this at all. I am no coder!

    Trainz 22 PE (build 132316) Environment Screen Will Not Load

    Just installed and re-ran my edition of Trainz on Linux Mint 22.2 Cinnamon. Once I chose the graphics setting (High) the environment page would never load in when I go full screen, and even when I made some adjustments to the graphics based what I always use, the environment screen just goes...

    The Nightmare. Moving to Linux Mint

    I don't think you read this post correctly. I have already installed Linux Mint, and already partitioned my drive with GParted. I am also aware of dualbooting, but as it has been stated on many Linux forums that can create issues (like corruption of the Grub boot loader or mbr loader. So I at...

    The Nightmare. Moving to Linux Mint

    Yesterday I did a RAM replacement on my Windows 10 computer. Upgraded to 32GB DDR3 (I said it was old). Well Windows nerfed knocked out my mbr boot loader, which really upset me. Several resets later, going back to my old 16GB RAM, Windows not only would not boot, but no longer detected my...

    Train Not Slowing Down For Speed Reduction

    I do unbounded all the time if I have a home signal at the yard entrance, and never have issues. I'll sometimes use 06 dwarf signals in front of switches (set to unbounded) to give the lunar white restricted speed (15 MPH). I even have one yard that uses the 08 signal with a red/yellow/green...

    Apparently Locked Out

    The one universal truth about the Internet John is you cannot use logic or reason to understand motivations like this. Personally I could not care less at this point, and talking to the helpdesk over that isn't worth the time or effort. I just have to laugh at the absurdity of how this...

    Apparently Locked Out

    Just noticed that the mod has locked me out of conversation on the forum that I was part of. No explanation, no alerts, no DM. Just removed privs. (n)

    I’m retiring from Trainz

    What sucks is that even the most baller systems struggle playing Trainz with a fully detailed route. To me that says whoever programs the code for the game really don't have a clue about optimization. In many cases it plays worse than Cities Skylines 2 (and that was a cluster release). My...

    I’m retiring from Trainz

    Well on that move, you have me beat there. I've become the dude in the corner curled up against the wall rocking back and forward when I don't play Trainz for a while. I don't really live near tracks anymore (though my brother and sister-in-law do and I'll go walking to them and wait for the...
