Sine N3V Games announced a HUGE sale today via Simulator Central here, there is NO excuse anymore for those die hards who still stick to TRS04, TRS06 and some later editions of Trainz. Plus many more other simulation games there too in a similar price range. Imagine, just $8 smackeroos (dollars)...

Please let me explain, I have TS12 61388 (among another version with a different serial number) installed on two different PCs which do not normally connect to the Internet. For the last 2 days when starting TS12 on either offline PC, they refuse to start up but will do so when going online and...

Hi, does anyone know where settings like display setting and when to use DirectX or OpenGL are getting saved to. I looked into my userdata folder in settings and did not find these there. I have a peculiar issue when starting my TS12 61388, first I have to start being online, or my DRM free TS12...

What the hell is going on lately with my installed Collector's Edition of TS12, patched to 61388. Does anyone else being offline experience this below? Please let me explain. TS12 resides on a PC which I normally NEVER go online with. Why should I, this particular version of TS12 has a different...

Hi Shane, I would like to THANK you for all the good work you do for the Trainz community. If it were not for you to give help and advice to every one needing it in this forum, where would we be? Hardly any help is forthcoming now (I know it is TANE) from the powers that be. They know how Trainz...

As said, I am disappointed with you people because no one found it necessary this year to post a 1st of April joke thread here. I did so last year and I managed then to fool a few people but this year I was holding off to see if someone else will do so this year. Sadly, no one did so, although...

As a few/some/many people do not yet have the TANE CE edition installed, I thought I show a few screenshots here to show what TANE is going to look like. Anyway, I d/loaded the offered installs of the Avery-Drexel and Wallangarra routes and a couple of other routes new to TANE CE, which I...

I have it on good authority that Micro$oft's gaming division is about to acquire the lucrative Trainz franchise from N3V Games. The apparent reason being, M$ would like to revive its old M$ Train Simulator game and this way via N3V Games seems to be the easiest way for M$ to go about. The sad...

Hi, it would be nice to know about this offer from Simulator Central to d/load a digital copy for $9.95 (with code) TS12 SP1 to WHAT STAGE (all hotfixes plus) this actually is upgraded to. Wouldn't you people from N3V Games think this information is IMPORTANT for us mere mortals? For reasons...

Hi, does anyone know if there is a single patch for TS12 to get from 46957 or 47059 directly to 49922 instead of the intermediate patches to get there. I could only find these patches here: to 48249 48249 to 49922 Unless one needs these 2 patches to get to 49922 and a single patch is not...

As the title says, I received N3V's newsletter today where it is stated the TS12 Anniversary Edition is currently on special for AU$22.47 on Simulator Central (I guess). Yet when trying to buy this version, I get the FULL price as AU$149.90. Even when trying to buy this with PayPal, this shows...

"Virgin has Tiger by the tail"... What image does this headline conjure for you? No, it is NOT what you might think, here is the newspaper article with this headline. I thought I had to share this here, although it may only concern these in this AURAN/N3V forum. Cheers VinnyBarb

I can not log into the black and the white DLS, neither Planet AURAN. Anyone else has the same experience? If so, lets hope it is not too long to get going again. *Edit: Sorry false alarm, just came back online again, it was gone for several minutes though. Cheers VinnyBarb

Hi, why is it I can not re download some stuff from their web site I already have paid for? Specifically some digital Jointed Rail locomotive packs. I recently accidentally deleted some of these packs and now I find there is no "re download button" or similar link to re download from. Is it...

Hi good folks, does anyone know if one can disable these "#$@%^ features" in Win 7 where, if you have 2 Win Explorer windows open side by side and you would like to copy files across from one to the other. If one does not do this carefully and gets to close to the side of it, the @#$%$ file...
