I've found on routes with custom thumbnail images that do not match the default aspect ratio that any attempt to save new sessions will prompt a new route to be saved instead. This behavior has been repeatable across multiple versions of trainz 22 and plus. Does this route have a...

unfortunately we've been dealing with a 'sun rises in the east sun sets in the west' situation since day one. add it to the list of "time and money" features to ask for from the last couple decades. calendar and world origin points have never mattered in the worlds best model railroad simulator.

you got so good at reskinning the soo gp38-2! that's crazy i never imagined you'd start making your own engines

railroads often had in-house design departments that handled their branding. there are ~similar~ fonts for most old railroad typefaces but more often than not the lettering is something unique to that RR. the most obvious case that comes to mind is Santa Fe's large billboard lettering- untrained...

That kuid doesn't appear to be one of ours, so I'm also curious what it looks like. I can tell you right now that none of the typefaces RI used on any GP40 paint schemes are 1:1 matches for existing fonts out there.

these PTLX skins are looking great!

try limiting the framerate trainz is running at- I had to cap mine at my monitor refresh rate of 74hz otherwise my GPU would spool up trying to give me 300fps on a blank baseboard route...

it looks like nobody on our side fired back on this since i saw it earlier. this sometimes happens if you open too many tabs at a time as an anti-denial of service measure. i've had it come up when editing a bunch of store items en masse.

that is *not* what it's supposed to do actually. tracksounds are tied to bogeys and in a game that isn't held together with gum and shoestrings they should only play on railcars that use those specific bogeys. it would be pretty stupid if every railcar played traction motor sounds from a...

the effort comes in actually getting off the computer and recording the thing. not everyone can go outside and record X Y Z horns off of 1 2 3 locomotives. you are more than welcome to try to fake the sound via synthesizers on the computer but i've had more than my share of people complaining...

doesn't hurt to fire off a message asking permission first

I wish I only spent 30% of my time on any given project having to do research :ROFLMAO:

That may explain why they always seem to think headlights should cast on the ground in what should be broad daylight... I'm thankful trainz doesn't make that same mistake.

it's worth pointing out that not all american railroads use the same signal indications... Having two heads at a converging junction is atypical for Southern Pacific and Union Pacific signal rules: A red over green is a diverging clear and has no bearing on what speed to take the turnout- that...

seems like I manage to find another thing I don't like about it each time I play but I mean, realistically none of the alternatives can do what it can. so it's fine I guess...
