Agreed new forum looks good but AS above it is way to slow a person could die of old age before viewing all new Posts

:eek:

Cannot find the link to change the colors of this forum...
I did read something about it being at the bottom left of the screen ...
All I have seen at the bottom left is the changer for languages ...
These colors are bad on my monitor ...:D

Oh, here's the answer ...You may be able to change the styling of the board by using the style changer in the bottom left of the page. This lets you choose different skins which change the color scheme and appearance of the board.

If this option does not appear, the board cannot be restyled. JUST DANDY

Theme changing can only be done if the forum has other themes set up. This being N3V I would highly doubt they set up any other themes, and noting as to what they spent a week on doing to the forums here, I doubt you'd want to see any other themes if they had put the time into making them.

Do we need a 1st class forum ticket now to view the forums at a reasonable speed ?

Most likely the reason the forums are so slow is sue to the high number of people using it. At the moment there is 220 people viewing the forums. The average for this forum (before the update) was around 50.

Guys, wait a week, then if you still hate it, complain. Dont judge by the first glance,

Is it slow? as peter said, it's very busy. To me it seems a bit like fb atm

The improvements must have escaped me because I really don't see much improvement. The speed is still slow and the screen is much too bright. I don't like not having the DLS link because I used it quite often when someone announced that some new content had been uploaded. Also, I don't like not having the station list. How are we to see that someone has a registered version of Trainz? I don't guess that we have much choice in the matter though and we'll all get used to it in a matter of time. I didn't like losing support for legacy versions, especially uploading them to the DLS, and I'm not very pleased with this 'improved' version of the forum. Again, what has been improved?

Edit: Why does it take so long for a post to actually post? For a 'quick reply', it seems fairly slow.
 
Ehwww. Hard on the eyes is an understatement. And what is a "Blog?"

I prefer the "old" forum look.

Blog = a web log, like a diary, journal, log kinda thing.


I don't know how I feel about the forum, the white isn't bothering me too much yet.. But I miss the station stops to show what versions of Trainz people have registered
Blog feature is cool, but i've already got a blog/website for my Trainz route (Seen in sig). I may still use the forum blog if I do anything interesting though.. I see you can upload pictures straight to it? Where the hell are they going to store all these files?!
 
From the size of the first couple of pics in the blogs it won't be long until someone starts screaming about how slow it makes everything.
 
I agree with the others, the colors suck and no DLS link. If we could customize the background color or even add a picture that shows up when we login something we could upload to our profile it would be better than this.
 
Lets check out the hard work the guys and gals have done, and remember it was done for the Trainzer people in the world...........

You can customize webpages ... and it is easily reversable in PC Tools/Use Windows Colors

If you mess up your colors/fonts ...I can help you get back to the default colors/font

Nice that the forum is back.
Unfortunately, the colors are too bright for my eyes. It's a headache to read more.
Please create a way to change the background color. Thank you.

Edit:
Sending the message now takes much longer. The forum is something felt slower.

Edit 2: Is missing display of the Trainzversion under the user name.

My twopennyworth :- Light blue text on a white background isn't very helpful. A darker blue would help the text stand out better for us oldies, or alternatively a cream background colour. The pute white is a bit glary and looking at that colour for any length of time can be hard on the eyes.
So I ask N3V to reconsider those points please.
As far as the layout goes I am sure I would get used to that, change is always a bit awkward at first until we get used to them. I cannot say I have ever used the DS link from the forum so I personally do not miss it, but others plainly do. I simply take notes on paper of any points made and when I go to the DS use those to find whatever it is I need.
So in general not bad, but text is hard for me to read.

I'm now confused. I've seen a number of people mention having light blue text on a white background. All my monitors are perfectly calibrated for as-true-to color as they can get & I see no light blue text on a white background.

I'm also surprised to see so many people complaining about the white on the forums, yet I've never seen people complain about the white: Google, Facebook, YouTube (now changed), MS Office Suite, Windows Explorer, etc. Most of those listed are far more white then these forums.

Bonjour

Bonjour.
Bien plus clair et simple. C'est bien ! ;)
Tout d'abord en tant que Français, nous sommes certainement oubliés...
alors que notre communauté francophone est très importante.( France, Belgique, Canada-Quebec, Suisse etc...)
Merci de faire le nécessaire pour que nous puissions apporter notre expérience au service de tous.

Des idées.


Il serait intelligent de créer une technique pour lier et fixer durablement les objets et réseaux (rails) sur les maps (routes). Comme des punaises colorées ou des clous ou agrafes virtuels. En effet nous avons souvent des objets qui "bougent"...
Aussi, une façon simple de remettre à jour les N° de KUID... (avec A-B-C-D par exemple...)
Et puis, à quand le TRAINZ MAC en français ?


Voilà merci pour votre attention.:D
