How trainz works

This is probably in the wrong thread But...

I would like to know everything about trainz. Except the system requirements and how surveyor and DCC mode in driver. Because it would help me at some point.

Could somebody help me?
 
Well. it's not just content creation or the included game scripts. It's also re skinning, achieving, transferring content between versions of trainz. More will come.

But not how to make train simulators. Way too advanced.
 
In particular, the Trainz wikibook will give you a good idea of just how enormously vast a subject this is. Hardly anyone knows all of it, even less can remember it all.

Pick out one area that interests you at the moment, have a play, maybe try another one a few weeks later, and so on. It never ends....

Trainz works by producing a series of electrical signals in your computer which are converted into a series of 1's and 0's. your operating system interprets this and converts the 1's and 0's into an understandable language of either letters or pictures

Mystery solved!!
 
And that, Klinger, is probably the most fascinating thing about these things... Nothing but pulses of electricity either 'on' or 'off'...:eek:

Hi Ben,

Good to see you. The best place to start is the forums. Surf the old threads. You would be surprised on how much you can learn from the forum.:wave:
 
You might want to start with the Trainz wikibook. It's a work in progress but already has good stuff in it.
I would like to know when it's done. I'm going to look for it.(Now those are some words you don't see everyday). When it's done you could give me a P.M.

Yeah. I've herd of these 0 and 1s. I think it's inside everything that uses logic circuits.

I think the name of it is beginning with a b.

Edit:Let me guess. Barny? barmy? Binery? What about it. I think that third time lucky works.

They might be pules of electricity but they do an important job and without them all that we would have that runs on electricity are just lights, door bells and probably a car without a radio or cruise control. and stuff like that

Yeah. It's good to see you too mate. How long has it been?

Yeah. I've been searching the old threads. Posting a few stuff to help things to go a bit smoother.

And I think that you're right about that. A while ago I found a nice TGA editing program called TGAtool2 that I think could... help...... me......... solve............ my............... prob...................lem..................... I am such an idiot.:hehe:

I think that I'd better find that thread which I had found about Paint.net and say that I have found a way for it to stop compressing files.

Thanks. For solving that re skinning problem.:hehe:

I don't think the wikibook will ever be completely finished, particularly since Auran plans some more releases. We could certainly use some more authors and I could use some more time to write.
 
Yeah. I guess it need a lot of work to complete. But you and your team have done a freakish amount of work already. And I do think that you could do better with more people helping you.
