Build Version

[Naijeru]

What do each of the build versions correspond too?

3.6, 3.5, 3.4 etc...

And, if I'm using TS12, how low should I really go? i.e. are ones like 2.9 and 2.6 safe?

2.9 and above should be fine, 2.8 may be ok anything lower may or may not require fixing.

See here for build versions http://online.ts2009.com/mediaWiki/index.php5/Trainz_build_versions

1.3 and 1.5 seem to be for the very first Trainz.
3.3 is the highest visible for 2009SP4
The rest; no clue

I think the official bottom limit for tS12 is 2.7, but a lot of stuff lower then that will also work fine. Most of the scenery is no problem, older rolling stock usually gives errors and warnings.

I'll keep that in mind about 2.9 then.

That link though, doesn't relate to the Content Managers 'Build Version' number when looking for items. I can't see any reference to 2.8 or 2.9 on that page. However I did find this page on the same wiki which tells me.

Edit: I did post this earlier, but it hasn't shown up (seems to be common issue today)

Oops! copied the wrong link from my bookmarks, still glad you found it anyway. 3.6 I think is the final patch for TS12 that included the patch to use the Aerotrain, 3.4 was 2010 Multiplayer / no compatibilty mode. 2.7 did work until the last but one TS12 hotfix, I had to fix a few things after that, 2.8 is mostly OK.
