Mark,

I am trying to get the facts on this but, not having TS12, I can't check for myself. Iportals were built into TS2009/10 but (as with many older assets) were not included in TS12.

Have you integrated your TS2010 version with TS12 - copied the .ja files etc.?

What do you want to know about Iportals in TS12?
They don't work in TS12 to send trains to someone else over the internet.

Are you saying that you have actually tried this in TS12 and iportals don't work? If so I can only think that the programmers have somehow "hijacked" the iportal functionality to enable multiplayer, if this is not the case and iportals have just been "switched off" then that seems like a bad call.

I don't recall reading any announcement that the i-portal will be pulled and unusable. I have them in Trainz12 and they work fine as normal portals but I have never tried them over the net. Someone shout out some i-portal names and I'll try and send a train.

"C+ iportal" - without the "".

A lot of the old assets were not built in to 12, the i-portal is an old asset from way back and was probably seen as a BBC Acorn Micro compared to the new Microsoft Ultimate Editions.
Why would you include your old outdated software with your brand new modern version?
The I-portal is still available from the DLS, along with all the other old stock, for those that refuse to move forward to MP. :wave:
