After taking a bit of a break from Trainz, I'm starting to get back into the swing of things and would like to know if those of you who have Trainz 12 have had better results than before the two hotfixes, and also if the script error that some members mentioned has been fixed/eliminated somehow. Since my current copy of trainz 2010 has been throwing installation errors at me, I've decided to get Trainz 12 again and start completely over. So if anyone here has Trainz 12, is it better after the two hotfixes or still a bit finicky?
Looking to get trainz 2012 again

Hi John,
There is a mixed camp here. Be prepared for a lot of posts...
The initial upgrade was somewhat a mess, but between the hotfixes and content updates, things seem to be going okay for me and quite a few others.
If you attempt to update, remember to:
1) Perform a backup first!
2) Update with your antivirus off and
---- a) wait for a very, very long time for it to complete
---- b) expect to find a lot of "bad" content" that needs fixing
---- c) perform an EDR afterwards
3) Expect a lot of updated content including that from Jointed Rails. They have patched their engines so if you have any payware that's broken, you can update it.
4) Don't expect miracles or Trainz gods to appear from the golden orb of Trainz World and everything to work instantly.
Once the update is done, and everything is fixed, your performance in Trainz TS12 will be, or as I should say has been for me, quite nice. The program loads faster and the overall performance appears better.

Im one of those that was in the camp of being unhappy with the hotfix and patches. It messed up my instalation to the point it was unusable. I did a little moaning about it the reistalled from scratch in a new directory. Having installed the hotfix and patches to the new installation there has been some improvement. However I still have a couple of issues - mainly to do with CM rather than the game but Im hoping that that is being worked on. My problems with CM are to do with it freezing when I click on some assets. When it does this the only way I can then access CM is to reboot my pc. My biggest issue with the game is to do with when moving items - they sometimes do not move with the cursor and so take several attempts to get them in the right place. But having said all that it is generally better now on a clean install.
