    What is the point of HD Terrain?

    I am asking this in all seriousness... I was VERY excited when I saw the announcements for HD Terrain, and installed absolutely as soon as I could, and then.... 16 texture per block limitation?????? WTF???? I can easily have 20+ textures in a quarter-mile of track. I would love to take...

    So......... WHERE is the HD Terrain update?

    Everything seems to say it's been released, but I can't find it; when I start Trainz+, and check the updates tab, there are none.... Anyone? Bueller.... Bueller?

    How do I create [more] realistic yards/ladders?

    Because what I have now could hardly be any less realistic... Hoping for some guidance in creating more prototypical yard ladders and turnouts. The problem I am encountering is that I can’t seem to get the angles tight enough where the individual yard lines branch off the lead. For...

    Train Assets Not Saving When Editing Route

    I recently purchased two items for my Trainz+; the PRR T1 pack ( https://store.trainzportal.com/collections/dlc/products/trainz-dlc-prr-t1-a-fleet-of-modernism ) and the RVSX Vegetation Control Train pack ( https://store.trainzportal.com/collections/dlc/products/rvsx-vegetation-control-train )...

    Uninstall Help Requested

    Hopefully this is the right place to post this... I currently have both Trainz22 and v installed on my laptop, and would like to uninstall Trainz22 to free up some much-needed space. Unfortunately, I had installed and uninstalled both Trainz22 and TrainzPlus a couple of times, and want to make...

    HD Terrain - When and backward compatability?

    First off, apologies if the information is available; I've looked and didn't see it. Has there been a date or estimated date for the release of the Trainz+ update with the HD Terrain, and when that comes, will it be backward-compatible? That is, will I be able to, or will existing layouts...

    Another bizarre texture issue... any ideas?

    Making great progress on my layout and... this. I had a gravel texture on either side of my track, and it was working nicely, and gave me the look I was after. I opened it up to work on the route one day, and all the gravel turned to a featureless, bright, white. You can see from the tool tip...

    WTF Happened to my layout??????????

    Hoping some of you more knowledgeable folks can shed some light on what I did to cause this (I assume it was my fault; it usually is). Traiz2022 running on Win 10, machine is well above spec, and have no issue with the program not running. Started it up today all of my elevation/terrain &...

    TRS 22 = TRS 19 ???

    Decided to go for the TrainzPlus incentive and get an early start on '22 - downloaded at the TRS22 download link (9.6Gb) and installed, Build 111951, but everything shows as TRS19... am I missing something, or? (I am NOT the best at stuff like this). Thanks!

    Hiding Ground Texture Temporarily

    I was watching a YouTube video on Trainz, and the presenter seemed to be able to 'turn off' or hide the ground texture effects temporarily to reveal the grid underneath and allow for better alignment of buildings, etc. Unfortunately, he's moving so quickly (and the video isn't actually a 'How...

    Combining / Layering Textures ?????

    Is there any way to layer multiple textures but avoid the scalloped edge that comes from the circular shape of the texture tool? I want to lay down a gravel bed under my track that extends for a couple of yards on either side of the track bed, and then switch to a different texture. In the...

    Assembling a locomotive (or other asset) out of multiple "sub" assets

    So I recently downloaded a Beyer-Garrett, which came as a series components; drivers, boiler, etc. How do I get those components into a single, functioning loco, and along those lines, how do I incorporate an engine or whistle sound file or similar into a given asset? Thanks!

    Adjusting elevation "in bulk"?

    Is there a method by which large areas of elevation can be adjusted? I have a layout of let's say, 5x10 boards, and I want to set one row of five boards to an elevation of 50' above the zero datum; is there any tool which will allow me to do this all at once, or is it a matter of "painting"...
