Great work! How’s, some tutorial links are dead or refused permission. I tried the water effects and snow mode, wasn’t able to access. Water effects was no permission, snow mode was “oops, we ran into some problems.”

Some of these tutorials are located in the Content Creation Support section of the forum. If you don't see it in the forums section list you don't have access to it. The tutorials you mentioned are in that section. Do you have access to the Content Creation Support forum section?

BTW I tried those links and they worked fine for me.

Thanks for your fast reply!

I’m not sure, but I don’t see those categories in my list of forums visible on the main landing page. So probably I don’t have access? I don’t know.

I’m a Trainz Plus subscriber with Trainz 2022. I have all the monthly subscriptions. But maybe I’m new at the forum and not granted enough privileges. I’ve only submitted one asset to the DLS. So maybe I’m not a true content creator or a longtime forum member with access? Seems strange, though.

Its been a long time but I think you have to request access from N3V to that specific forum section if I remember right.
