Japan

[gremlin1812]

G'day pagroove, I have installed the route and session and am only missing one asset, <kuid:338927:100071>. I checked the DLS black page and the only assets of yours there are the two routes and their sessions. I will run the session and see how it goes and report back.
Regards
Barrie

Edit:- I have just gone for a run on this route and it goes quite well, the only time I had issues was in view 3 but in cab view and view 2 all was good, also the transition from cab view to view 2 was quite smooth.

[/URL][/IMG]hoo kay. you want screenshots? BWAHH!! I'LL GIVE YOU SCREENSHOTS!! LOL!!

I started to test drive a line north east of Norththropp. I'm sure I'm missing a station there but I'm still downloading stuff
found a few errors on the line i test drove. in one section, the two tracks almost merge into one.

Found the Shinkansen line but I noticed that the narrow gauge route that parallels the Bullet train is cut off and the tunnel is standard gauged but there are no tracks on the other side of it.
I used the Eden sight seeing train for the first test run. Gotta admit. this island is huge!! It will take days to navigate it. hopefully I'll have everything .
Oh yeah, the GC1 stations are no longer available.

Hi Railshuttle. Many thanx for showing the problems you have. Certainly strange. Because those places look absolutely perfect on my system. I have some more questions. Sorry for that .

1.- Is this in Trainz 12 or Trainz 2009? (or in 2010: 2010 I haven't tested because I don't have 2010)
2.- In concentmanager which kuidnummers it says are missing? I believe you but I have to look it up myself too. There Should be 1​ kuid missing. But thats only a Soundfile.

Ok. I looked at those places where you took a screenshots. In my version these places are fine but you are missing at least the following items:

<Kuid:68787:1170> ----> ET-Gras 7
<Kuid:61119:28112> ----> Station A6 300 FT (this is not a French station)
<Kuid:117608:60211> ----> Concrete block Wall 02 (This is an item by Kenichiro)
<Kuid:12021:45020> ---> Laermschutzwand 1 flach

This should at least add some items.

Certainly those trees are not on the Shinkansen track in my version of 2009 and Trainz 12. I noticed that sometimes when you save a route in surveyor some things are displaced for no reason. For example those overhead wires and the bridge are all perfectly in place in my version.

I run it in Open GL btw.

Try to view all the missing items in the main list in Content Manager and download those missing items.

Hope this helps.

Here are pics from the same spots for comparison. This is how it should look at those places. I admit there are some bugs left. But some routes are also not finished. The most important routes are drivable for now.

I noted around the same things with one downloaded route and with my own route imported into ts12, I notice the splines/tracks heights are resetting (yellow roundel resetted to white color) and because of it the place it was originally is reset, If you touch the spline/track roundle to adjust height it automatically resets to the right position, atleast that is how I fixed it in my own and one downloaded route.

I don't know how to fix it and could never find an sollution either, except touching every spline that has the problem when downloaded.

Also some commands for sessions are not downloaded with downloading the route and session, maybe something is not downloaded that saves an file where the spline/tracks heights are saved?

 

[Railshuttle]

well I have trains 12 the deluxe dition with the N&W monster steam engine on the cover, sadly, it doesn't have the items located in each country like the previous versions of trains, everything is lumped into one category or another. It's kinda wierd but I've downloaded the Kiha jpan route and everything is there. nothings missing at all.( at least as far asthe japanese stuff. but I'll check again. Lik I said earlier, I'm still in the process of downloading stuff so missing stuff should appear as i get more stuff into it. as far as the misaligned tracks. I'll check in route editor to see if I can fix them myself. the tunnels are a pain in the ass to deal with on trains 12 for some reason. Next I will test drive the narrow gauge circle line. Oh yeah, I found a power plant but there are no tracks connected to it. is that a mistake? I'll get a pic of it soon.

Use the content filter and use the filter 'Region' then select Japan from the dropout.

Repairing ore enhancing things yourself is probably the best thing indeed. BTW found a bug myself too.
About the Route. Some routes are not finished. I uploaded the map when I found that most of the routes that I want to share where finished. So indeed the narrow gauge line besides the Shinkansen enters a tunnel but on the other side there is nothing yet. So these are for future expansions.

The Industries are not all connected yet indeed. So that there is no track to the power plant is correct.

My plans are to release an update in the future but for now enjoy and repair if you see a weird thing.

Hi Acelaamtrak. Long time no see. How is your route? Would love to see some new screenshots from it.

The News. After three weeks of hard work in a job (Large corporate contract from Russia), I have finally some free time.
I imported all my stuff in the game yesterday, repair what needs to be repaired and delete what I don't need. Now is time to look at the internet for some inspiration.

 

[Railshuttle]

Well that's good to hear matura! I have some ideas (Well request at best LOL!!)
1. animated JR container cars and a terminal for them to be loaded and unloaded The terminals are really small compared to the ones in the US but they seem to get the trains in and out very quick IT would be cool for fans of the little loved JR freight lines
2. more vintage JR commuter trains like the 113 series and the limited express trains and the ones that run on the Chou and Tokaido lines. they had really large windows in the front and were in solid blocks of blue, yellow and orange.
end of my "Wish list" LOL!

pagroove took a test drive on the Toshin loop line. love it!! how'd you get the kenichiro crossings to work for the narrow gauge track? I thought that couldn't be done because the crossings were made for standard gauge. I was gonna try to make that narrow gauge line that ran next to the bullet train go thorugh the tunnel but since you announced you were going to upgrade the route I decided it to leave it alone to see what you would do with it. I'm still downloading stuff for it too.
Here are the latest pics . I'm felling the need for speed so I plan on testing one of the high speed lines next.

Pagroove : Not really much, haven't done anything for quite a while, pc broke down last month, bought an new pc with win 8.1 but I get quite a few texture errors of ts09 on it (ground textures and much of the japanese trainz) haven't found anything to solve it so I will use ts12 now for continuning the route, I luckely didn't lost the route since I made backups.

Railshuttle: Do know there is an series 113 and an 485 series already?, 113 you can find here http://trainz.luvr.net/downloads-outside.php?min=25&disp=rs
485 is on download station only oner skin of each one trough.

Also did Keimei left?

 

[Railshuttle]

oh I have those already for traniz 2006 acelaamtrak. I was kinda hopin they would get updated for trainz12 and maybe even retrucked to work on the narrow gauged rails.

SANRIKU 36-700 KUWAIT

 

[Railshuttle]

cool!! a new DMU!! what line is it running on?

 

[Railshuttle]

Hookay!! tested out the Colden bullet train route with the new 700 series. The ride was pretty smooth I still gotta get some textures for some of the mountains but most of the area seems ok. Also tested out that narrow gauge route that was supposed to go into the tunnel along side the bullet train north of Toshin. I used the NEX train but next time I'll use one of the 103 commuter trains, seeing how that route seems perfect for it.
Next, I will try out the TGV route. enjoy the pics!!

[pagroove]

Hi Railshuttle. Glad to read (and see) that you are enjoying the route. Nice screenshots too. If you want to make a route for the narrow gauge then go ahead. The new version will probably get released with a new version number. I didn't do anything special to connect the Kenchiro crossings. They just worked.

Do you have some ai's running on the Shinkansen route in your own session now?

Hi Acelaamtrak. Sorry to hear your pc broke down.. But good to hear that you didn't lost your route. Looking forward to it when you are 'on rail' again.

 

[titanicchristo]

hey I was just wondering I've been serching every where to find the traffic lights you're useing in the pics above, Can you tell me the model name?

 

[Railshuttle]

Not yet. I'm still trying to get the feel of all the routes first and I'm still downloading stuff (yeah still downloading stuff. I'm missing some sort of bridge becasue there is one area where the tracks are in mid air.) I did notices in the yards of Colden and Northtopp there are tunnels at the very end. are those the I-portals?
how do they work? I've never used them before.
A bit off topic, does anyone know where I can get that recolored 113 commuter train for trains 2006 or the skin of it? the recolored version is a blue and cream one.
