I am a Trainz 2004 user ever since it came out and just in my 90th year- I never had any problems with downloading item for which I have a life ticket however as Auran no longer offer 2004 lovers anysupport I am hoping that some one will help with my current problem their our many creators still offering 2004 content but when I try to download all I get is Unable to find required username tag in package so I get nothing any help really appreciated
 
That sounds like one of two things:

1. You are not running Service Pack 4 (build 2370).
2. The CDP you've downloaded is not compatible with your version or has missing information.

as I am on build 2356 2.4 it does not need service pack 4 as advised - all the items I wanted just show for 2004 so all must be compatible yet two items from the same creator one will be ok the other unable to find required username in tag package how does this happen it beats me as the username is the same as the one item downloaded before it
 
You get this message, if the file is created with the content manager of a later version of Trainz (TRS2006 and up). I never had a problem with the ContentDispatcher of TRS2004 installing these files, just ignore the message and continue.

Many thanks your reply but I do ignore that note and I get a blank format and I click on extract but nothing appears in surveyor, wish it woud work ok as I would prefer to remain in 2004 as doubts arise if the same should happen with higher versions I have
 
After installing you have to use the program TrainzObjectz to locate the new objects. Use TrainzObjectz to modify the config.txt (trainz-build ...) and/or to check for missing dependencies.

There is absolutely no reason to stick with TRS2004, as TRS2004 just limits you to the basic assets ... If you have a low end PC use TRS2006, and go with that version.

If your PC is lacking, possibly it will not run 09, 10, 12 ... as framerates may be in single digits, or 0.5 FPS
 
thank you for your advice but I have my own reasons for keeping 2004 it has served me well for the last 9 years and my current route allows me to run 10 passenger consists and 2 freight supplies and is split into both LNER and LMS services sso2006 and above for me forget them
