Multiplayer Screen Shots

[JIb228]

So the idea of this topic is to show off some events in MP. Screen shots should include at least 2 trains from 2 different users.

And I will get started off with these:

My goods train rolls past Binzer as he backs his train up.

Mr Jingles tries to help Frankz heavy ore train up the steep grade.

Hi Jib,

next time I play multiplayer I'll take some shots.

I'd love to help this topic!

Good idea, a MultiPlayer screenshot thread.
These following images by me were cut-out of my original images to get rid of the Interface and Chat windows and the like.
Perhaps I will add some native resolution ones later on too.


A meet and greet at KrashnburneRRCo's Container Port.
I am waiting with my empty Mill Gondolas for a loaded coal Train to pass.

And it was a long (i believe 18 cars) train. (from our "heavy freight" day)

Me waiting at the Transfer Yard until Driver "dh2k3" leaves the Yard area so I can enter the Yard.

Driver "dh2k3" pulling out of the Container Port with his fully loaded (heavy) Grain Train (after some puzzling shunting at the Container Port to get them all loaded), bringing the GP60 to its limits at the coming climb, while Driver "shipboy" patiently rolls towards the red signal.

Me on my way to Wood Wurms to drop off the logs, while Driver "dh2k3" disassembles his loaded Grain train to unload them in three's at Anchor Flour Mill.

About 20 Minutes later on the same scene, I am back to get my emptied Skeleton cars loaded with Logs again, while Driver "dh2k3" unloads the last 4 Grain Hoppers. (nobody joined in the meantime to unload the loaded and ready to go coal consist, so it is still waiting there)

I also need to show what happens when going over misaligned switches (driver names were "censored" out so not to brand them derailers), but both accidents happened unintentionally.
In the first screenshot, Junction 1402 was misaligned and on the second one, Junction 466 was misaligned while the drivers changed direction.

So, lesseon learned the hard way - Always align all switches along the drive path.


And I am finishing off this collection with a busy Map screen on the KrashnburneRRCo from our "heavy freight" day.

Amazing!~!

Amazing. When I was the owner of the Krashnburne Railroad Company it was just a small-time outfit with a dedicated band of workers.

I used to run a couple of small switchers, each with only a box car and maybe two gondolas trundling along behind.

With the new owners it looks like the Company has gone big time in a really big way.

Seriously, I'm glad to see that the route is being put to good use. It's amazing what can be packed into just two baseboards. Looks good too.

With MP can you only use default content?

 

[JIb228]

Yes and no. You can only use content that is built in or off the DLS. But any thing off the DLS must be error free.

Once downloaded, content shows up as Built In.

How would that work for reskins of third party content then i wonder? for instance, the several dozen or more reskins cincysouthernrwy has done of Ben Neal's steam engines.

I'm still waiting for the day you can "sign in" and take a locomotive from your own collection into the game. Then i'd be blasting through there in a 9F or my Ivatt 2MT blaring my whistle and shouting "GET OUT THE WAY!!!!"

:hehe: :hehe: :hehe:

 

[JIb228]

If its on the DLS then yes. If not, then you can use it. And as far as I know, you have to have a session set up and on the DLS for MP. But you can make a session with any content you want in it.


But back on topic. For about 20 min I hosted a quick session.

I rolled past Inn while going to pick up some goods:
