How to do HTML Pages message system and Message Popup(TRS2006)

[Ethan777]

Can anyone teach me? This has locked me out of doing up my own sessions? Thanks!

The very first step would be to register your copy of Trainz 2006. It's easy, just click the Serial Number link at the top of each forum page (including this one) and then enter your details including the serial number that came with your Trainz CD-ROM.

Why must we do this action?

Exploring other HTML files, Message Popup is typed out in Content Manager Plus(CMP) and viewed as a Notepad document and the HTML Pages messages are done up with Adobe Dreamweaver and viewed as a webpage. Diagrams/Pictures in the HTML Pages are done up in Photoshop and saved in tga. file format. Back, Next and Done(Green Tick) arrows are typed as $0, $1, $2 variables respectively in the Dreamweaver file.

Is this how all of you do up your HTML Pages message system? I'm not sure how this is really done.

Registering your copy has nothing to do with creating HTML pop-ups for the game. However, it does tell us that you have a legitimate copy with a correct serial number - it costs you nothing to register. Once you have registered you will find that other users (myself included) will be far more willing to help you with your questions and problems.

There is a lot more to creating HTML pop-ups than your description - it is not as simple in Trainz as it is with normal web pages. I would NOT use Dreamweaver to create the HTML pages as the code it normally creates will cause you problems in Trainz.

I can't register my serial number. In 2008 I received TRS2006 to play and created an Auran account to register my TRS2006 serial number. However, I stopped playing for a while and completely forgot my old account details. Now when I created a brand new account and re-register my serial number, the system would not allow me to do so since Trainz serial numbers can only be registered once.

EDIT: I see from your message header that you are now a registered user. Welcome back to the game.
