Well it has been a long time since i have been to this forum or even had time to start building a layout again. Last time i was posting it was for TRS 2004. I now have the Trainz Ultimate pack with TRS 2006 and TRS Classic. I installed both but honestly really have not seen anything great about trainz classic, really dont see the added features either so i guess i will spend most of my time with TRS2006 unless someone could help me see the extra features of classics.
I see that the forums have changed or have been lost not sure what happened but i can not find my earlier post that had the same questions answered that i will ask again.
1. Are there any good tutorials for building a layout including splines, grades, tunnels, corners etc. The manual for the surveyor program is a joke really doesn't tell or say much of anything.
2. Where is the best place to get downloaded content, I registered my name and new serial number for both trs2006 and trsclassics and yet the download station doesn't seem to work. Little disapointing, but both times i have gone to it, it has failed to work.
3. Are any of the older post from the TRS2004 forum still around or are they lost forever. There were a few i was looking for including the one where a person made a huge strip mine with a circular track going down ino it. Also there does not seem to be alot of post here in general compared to what i remember so im guesing people may have moved to a new forum.
4. On one of the DVD i have one of the menu items says extras, i think it is 2006. When clicking it it opens up a windows explorer window in inside are folders of stuff that look like extra things to install but im not sure what they are for or what they do. Can someone tell me what those are for and if they are simply things that are installed already or where they left out.
5. Is there a detailed manual explaining the use of the download manager and also the importer program. It appears much different now then in the earlier versions of trainz and it has me very confused. Are things in the download section that are marked as 2004 compatable with 2006 and 2006 compatable with classics.
6. Does the completed DVD of trainz classics only come with TWO tracks or did i not get a full copy or not install it correctly. If so this has to be a joke.
Let me also say that im sorry if this post is in the wrong place but it contains information for several forums so i did not know where to post it, so i figured posting it in the area where the most people post is the best idea.
Thanks again for your help, i know with trs2004 everyone helped out alot so i know this is the place to come.
Have a great day
