Russian Locomotives and Routes

"if they have all of the missing assets, any hard drive corruption is for you to deal with, if you aren't sure what to do, come on here with all your error messages and we'll attempt to help you out, but, please don't hassle any veteran Trainzers who have a long understanding of how the various Trainz versions work, we have more knowledge and experience than players who've only been around for a short time."

Getting back to this, I will not say what I think about your condescending attitude as it's probably not allowed on this forum, however you may have observed that a week after I raised this issue 5 of those 6 routes were removed from the DLS. Another poster who responded [above] even edited my comments to completely misconstrue what I had said and what my intentions were so I can only surmise that there are some out the who want to help and some out there who are just so smug and know it all that they don't.

My 10/12 trainz game was completely corrupted by the route from a Russian creator that I downloaded. Don't tell me it wasn't. You don't know. I know what the problem was and do not need some **** person telling me from afar that it wasn't. You were not having the problem and not involved in the reinstalls so I cant really see why you decided to pontificate about someone else's problems.

There are many excellent and knowledge able trainzers out there who contribute to this forum with their help, guidance and answers to problems. It keeps the community alive and helps expand the knowledge of the game. I am not one of them as I'm still learning and need the knowledge those experts can provide, not the smart answers so would really appreciate it if you would not reply to any of my posts again. Thanks

Sorry to necro an old thread, but I wonder if anyone can provide an updated list of working RU content sites?

I ask this because so many of the sites posted in this thread, and many of the sites listed in post #24 by Okhiu are dead, empty, abandoned or closed.
Quite a few still exist as websites, but with the entirety of their content removed/deleted.

Most notably http://uzd-life.ucoz.ru/ has horrible network problems these days. I've tried downloading various assets and all of the attempted downloads fail due to network errors. Sometimes, I'm able to just resume the session, but most of the time, the files complete as broken.

Doing my own searches for active sites has found many many many listed sites as dead or abandoned. Very sad indeed.

As a suggestion Rico, why don't you (please) post the sites (Russian/old Eastern block countries) that you have come across that are still active and that you can still download contents from.

That will give us a starting point.

Many thanks,

Cheers, Mac...
 
Don't forget there is a wealth of Russian content built into TS12 so there is nothing to stop enterprising individuals starting from scratch and building their own routes. There are some interesting branch lines in the western part of the country approaching the Finnish border that are mostly forest and tundra leading to a heavy industry, so not too challenging to knock something together if need be. I would imagine most of the assets are now on the DLS the only issue might be whether some of the more heavily scripted locos work in TANE (mindful that TS12 is "off support" in a few weeks time).

I'm sure N3V realizes that it's taken them 14+ months to get Tane to a point where it's getting very close to a "Final Beta Release" (I for-one are very grateful for all their effort)...

I'm now hoping that they will apply some common sense and say to themselves, heavens above, it's taken us at-least 6 to 12 months longer than we thought it would to get Tane to this point, so as a consequence, we'll now do the "right thing" by the community and extent support for TS2012 for another year. Till September 2017. (Hopefully they'll see this like most of the community probably see's it, "a no brainier")!!!

Looking forward to hopefully reading Tony's extension announcement over the next month or so...

These are just my personal thoughts on the matter. (Hopefully it's not just wishful thinking)...

Happy Trainzing all.

Cheers, Mac...

Yeah no. I want it to happen, but it's not gonna happen. We all know T:ANE is the only thing that matters to this company. I'm sticking to TS12, and whether or not 3VN decides to wisen up and continue support for the superior title is probably not gonna change.

Thanks for the replys.

I'll gather the working sites I have and post, then we can add to those.
Mind you, there are only a handful of those.

Also, can we please not digress into a TANE/TS12 would've/could've/should've debate, and keep to the task at hand?

Plenty of other threads for that right ? :o

Noted Rico but TS12 is relevant to the matter in hand as that is where copious amounts of Russian assets can be found, as I pointed out.

I was quite surprised TANE didn't feature a Russian route or at least the TS12 one updated, though it is fairly easy to bring the route across from TS12 via cdp and drop into TANE letting the DLS grab the assets. The decline of TS12 means that any future Russian routes are probably best built in TANE, if possible.
 
This is confusing too, and although i don't normally run trains from Russia, i expected there to at least be some Russian content ported from TS12. T:ANE promised railroads from all over the world, and we got what, a model railroad, FOUR American routes, two Australian routes, and a British route? Maybe we could've done without the Hinton route and thrown in a Russian route and maybe even a Japanese or Chinese route as well.

Just like the weight on a steam locomotive, i bet the routes could've been distributed more evenly.

All I can think of is that the Russian train sim scene is fairly fragile - look at all the sites which have gone and I'm sure there were issues at the time that not all were entirely kosher. We did have issues where it was obvious some Russian "customers" were actually using pirated or cracked versions of the software, one young lady (?) in particular offering a Metro route who got very upset when it was politely pointed out that wasn't how things should be done. There are also the wider political issues following events in Georgia/South Ossetia and most recently Ukraine which has led to something of a cooling in relations between the West and Russia, though I guess as train simmers we should rise above that and not let it spoil our enjoyment of good routes and trains. Again apologies to Rico if that is viewed as divergence but actually quite relevant to the current situation.
 
No offense intended at all to the Russian people, but the country itself is effectively a mafia state where corruption is endemic and inescapable. I can understand why N3V would not want to do business there. Russian content itself is extremely high quality, and I'm sure the issue with piracy is exaggerated slightly as most of the Russian members have the little grid next to their usernames.
I'm sure within my lifetime Russia will gain a competent government willing to tackle corruption, introduce proper democracy and reconcile with the West, and when that time comes we can download all the Russian content we want :) Hey, I'd love to go there one day and see it for myself, it's a wonderfully varied and beautiful country (with lots of trains!) sadly overlooked by tourists because of the political situation. I would probably feel unsafe in Russia circa 2016, but Russia circa 2030? Who knows, just look at how quickly Estonia, Hungary and the other Eastern Bloc States have cought up.[/QUOTE
Sir, please lets just leave the politics's to the politicians and try and refrain from giving us your views about mother Russia in this Trainz forum. Thanks...

You quote; No offense intended, but what Russian wouldn't be offended by your post and your generalization. (Unfortunately we don't live in a perfect world)... I can't recall any fellow Russian Trainzer knocking the good old U.S of A in the forum...

Now that I've got that off my chest, Rico, are you putting together a list of the current Russian Trainz site that are still active and have downloads available?

Cheers, Mac...

I agree we should try and keep politics out of Trainz but sadly you cannot ignore the World Order in these things. Certainly relevant in terms of the access legitimate Trainz owners there have to the internet and availability of reliable hosting and servers which has to explain why so many of the sites have disappeared.

On the bright side, much of Russian territory is now shown in high resolution both on Google Maps/Earth (no Street view, though) and their own Yandex mapping service which has an English language option. Coverage on Open Street Map is also very good in many locations with sufficient detail to give a good start on laying out a route in Transdem etc. The Perry Castaneda map collection also covers much of the country at 1:250000 scale which, while not quite good enough for Transdem, assists with translating Cyrillic place names into English.
