The obvious question is how compatible is it with TS12? I've seen a lot of people mention using it with T:ANE, but I can't remember how many I've seen with TS12. While we're here, what's the compatibility like concerning general Windows software, like Photoshop, 3ds Max, etc? Pretty much...

There's not really any point to this thread, other than for me to have a little moan about something that should have been sorted many years ago. I say no point, because I asked for this way back in 2004 while beta testing, and periodically ever since, and it hasn't happened. I'm talking about...

Andi has started a conversation with Chris in the TrainzDev forum about disabled items, and seeing as I can't post there, I wanted to ask something here. As far as I'm aware, ever since the creation of Content Manager, disabling items in CM meant they didn't show up in Surveyor lists (as...

Hey all. Seeing as my route is several months away from being anywhere near complete, I'm looking for a route, preferably UK, but not essential, with a nice amount of industries, a yard or two perhaps, and nothing too big or small, so that I can test my Scenario system in the near future...

As the title suggests, I'm wondering if the lm.txt method of controlling the use of LOD on scenery objects has been updated/replaced. With my recently released tunnel, I used the track-lod-tree container to control the levels of detail, but now I'm working on some static scenery items, so I'm...

Now that 99% of the track is done on my route, I'd like to find a track that looks good for UK use, isn't super-heavy-poly, and performs well. I've used one of the HP tracks to lay it all down, and now I'm looking to replace it. Searching the DS for TS12 track is a waste of time, as the results...

As the title suggests, I need at least one realistic tunnel for my route. By realistic, I mean one that's actually dark inside, with both entrance and exit gradually getting darker, and the main part of the tunnel completely dark (or with some lights, etc). I made one about 10 years ago, using...

Not sure if this should be in another forum or not. Back in the day, it was possible to create a link to the DLS that included filters so that you could send people directly to a DLS search. For instance, for the following thread...

Started to "fix" some of my content so that there are updated versions that show no errors or warnings in TS12, and hopefully T:ANE. It's been so long since I've created for Trainz, but most of it's coming back to me. I've fixed the UK Billboards to start with, and now I want to export them to...

Just wondering. How many months does it normally take to get a reply on a helpdesk ticket?

Anyone know if there is a UK Milepost that is nameable available on the DS? I've searched and found a few mileposts, so just wondering which would be more suitable for the UK. If there isn't, I can easily knock one up, but no point in making something that's already available. Cheers, Brian.

Having had a few problems with the version already installed, most notably the portals showing errors on a new install, I was thinking of downloading the files from the server again. Just wondering if those downloads have all the Service Packs already included. The reason I ask is that the...

So I was about to start downloading all my favourite locos and wagons off the DS, and my freshly installed TS2010 seems to have a problem with it. Anyone who knows me, knows that I'm more than computer savvy (programming for 30+ years), so I'm not new to this nonsense. :D But I'm hoping someone...

As you know, it's been a long time, so I can't remember if this was a thing or not! Is it possible in Content Manager to "disable" assets, so that they no longer show up in the lists? If so, does it still cache them/acknowledge them in any way? We're talking TS2010 here, because that's the...

Seeing as I've been away so long, I thought it was easier to ask than search. In anticipation of T:ANE, I'm thinking of booting up TRS2010 and starting up a route. Back in the day, there were a few ways to 'overlay' images on top of baseboards, so that track could be placed. I even bought a...
