Good news with real details is really good news badly needed
I would say, now that I have a better understanding, and working flawless now... I am happier. Smoother gameplay, higher FPS, too. I went through all my downloads (backup CDPs) and got rid of all the "excess", which I don't really need. Back to basics for now, just local names like Santa Fe/ATSF/BNSF, Southern Pacific, Western Pacific, and Union Pacific. I will consider CSX and NS content later. I just need to figure out now what to do about Marias Pass X and Sherman Hill. Debating if it will be worth it, as I hear of some things like treez and such might be an issue. Oh, more testing tomorrow.
Dear Tony,
I know you and other individuals not expect, like me over here but we freedom of speech and impressions and most of all experience and real data with real results! to share so allow me to add a post here.
Critics or complains not necessarily mean bad news if you know where it comes from and foremost (forgive my english if not as good as most trainzers) wealth of experience shared should be read with different glasses and attitude!
Out of "bad" things good things can grow if wanted too, from good things seldom better things derive, experience tells me.
Here is the bad news first.... your thread how well meant is not always telling the whole story or even not telling the story unintentionally for sure.
This one from dear friend Paul how well meant is not telling here he dl install SP1 was it clean install (forgot) he only search and rescue for missing or gone cdps in CMP to make his dbase working again before even installing ANY route so when i read this one yesterday I first was shocked positive how the h... could he run things smooth when I got not even close, this answers. Nothing wrong but we will here more from him too. I bet today he will install a route to test real stuff.... hope goes well.
So here is the good news: I am probably a loner that dl install and fixed 3rd party content to 95% excl jvc which is updated later this year by Jan and running as we speak a deleted and freshly reinstalled large (for most trainzers)huge route no one can compare too any trainzer for sure.All of this done in less than 1,5 day.
Yes its running and this time the iportals where not vanished or gone eaten by the spline beetle.
the Speedtree beetle this time when hitting the ctrl alt del keys to run task mngr in win8 did not kill the treezs when running trainz driver windowed so not reproducable.
More details on real testing in a real trainz world you can find on my threads for those interested, barking dogs not welcome.
i not send flowers I sent real data more valuable than flowers or nice words gone in 2 days that is the difference of my way of talking.
I am not pleased with SP1 as it did not at all address REAL bugs(existing for many years) we serious route builders know and share with down under(but not heard for whatever reason).
I see some nice improvements but to early to talk detailed about it.
So the good news yes it's there but like all things one picture tells a thousand words.
to end Hi Brittany!! see you around all well?? hope your health improved after your short visit to our country. Still like very much your stuff.
Roy
