So somethings to note. The eRDB and prebuild did not solve this issue. The eRDB scanned 730,248 assets, and only 17 errors. Those errors are related to failing to precache data from platform, 31. Those errors have been a thing since I bought the game. The precache managed just about 35,000...

Hey John One thing I forgot to mention is I wait to load in fully once I see the birds flying between buildings. I have checked the logs, but nothing out of the ordinary caught my eye (the 17 errors are related to this platform thing I have found, but that's been there since I bought the game...

I've already submitted this as a bug report. In my version of Trainz 22 P.E 131986 (Steam), I began noticing in Surveyor 2.0 that if I use the eye dropper tool to get an asset (doesn't matter which) the game will hang for a few seconds which didn't happen before the update. As I mentioned in...

A welcome update that never lived up to expectations. Shocker!!! I have to chuckle because N3V is falling into the Microsoft way of updating and patching. The only thing for me that's good about Trainz was Surveyor 2.0 (a huge selling point for my baptism of fire) but these releases that are...

I'm not a Plus member. What I own is Trainz 22 PE (Steam). I never liked the subscription model anyway. Beta testing is not my thing, and after spending 25 years in IT, technology raised my bloid pressure too much. I know most swear by it, but I don't see the appeal. I guess the other...

For the record, my journey never ended. The addiction of Trainz kept me on the tracks even after all the crazy issues I faced. From never have knowing this games legacy and obviously never playing it before, this obession turned into an unhealthy 2330.4 hours in only 9 months. I developed my...

I've really enjoyed using TRC assets for my routes. It's a simple system that takes me very little time to implement. Seriously thank you for creating a fantastic system and keep up the great work vincentrh.

For my current route, it's just for me. I don't feel I'm good enough to ever share a route I make. While I have an unhealthy amount of hours in this game, my stuff isn't good enough to go against the pros who've been doing this since the beginning of this franchise. Sometimes it's a very...

Most games I've played since my youth (I'm talking over 40+ years of gaming), AI in games has always been problematic. It's gotten far better clearly, but Trainz is one of those sims out there that sort of has it right. Though it definitely isn't perfect. An example that still boggles my mind...

Since Trainz 22 PE on Steam was my introduction to the game, I personally have never had a problem with using that version. I paid just over $20 (incl. tax) for the game on the Plane's Trains and Automobiles sale they had last September. In fact the cool thing about Steam games is there's an...

Trains are more efficient than planes, and trucks. They can haul a lot more goods, can travel farther distances, and in many location trains can travel at 70 mph (possibly 80 mph). Don't forget the US is a vast land mass (if you re in the dead center of Texas and travel 8 hours in any...

If you want to talk about companies that don't care, think graphics company 3DFX who cooked the books, then add ENRON. While neither were mergers, they hurt thousands of consumers and employees. Then think about the lies the Senate committee was told about radio consolidation, (watch the...

Absolutely correct, and isn't it funny that the brass never seems to get the memo? Them good 'ol train boys of the past knew their role, they understood logistics, and they literally knew how to run a railroad. Sure profit was important as it always in in business; however, not at the expense...

Well we all need to thank the deregulation of the train industry back in 1982. That's when all consolidation began to go nuts. Not only that but a lot of small routes died, businesses died, crews were reduced to a couple of people. Oh and it's only gonna get worse. From what I heard from...

When this has happened to me, it was due to the route crashing and trying to rebuild immediately after. The fix was to revert the route and then rerun the DB rebuild and then run the pre build command. This corrected stalls, the error message and unlocked the route. This is why no matter how...
