Purchasing Trainz Plus will not give you all the extras for your TRS22 install. You need to install Trainz Plus from your MyTrainz account at the top of this page. You will then need to copy your 22 build folder and paste it somewhere, and then direct Plus to that folder.

To access the HD Terrain baseboards. You need to use Surveyor 2.0 as you noted.
Using the selection tool, look for the very small additional options icon to appear somewhere on the border of your selected area. Clicking on that will bring up an option to create baseboards. Select HD Terrain from the list provided.

You can convert existing baseboards on routes you've already created the same way. There are some caveats to doing this due to the 16-texture limit that applies to all baseboards. If you have more than that then they will be removed leaving bare spots.

By "HD tables" I am guessing that you mean HD baseboards?

I do not know if you have used Surveyor 2.0 before but it is a steep learning curve.

When I had Trainz Plus Gold I checked out how HD terrain works and I must admit it, it was pretty cool but overall pointless because
HD terrain is not yet compatible in TRS22 standard or PE despite PE having Surveyor 2.0

TRS22 will run HD routes, but you cant edit them without the HD reverting to 5m or 10m grid.

HD terrain is not pointless. It works perfectly well in Trainz Plus. Just because it doesn't work in TRS22 without "dumbing down" is no reason to dismiss it.

There are routes on the DLS that are built with HD terrain that are intended for Trainz Plus users, not for TRS22 users.

Fair! I know it works well in Trainz Plus, but I feel that N3V could make HD terrain routes compatible with TRS22/PE
Maybe in the new Trainz game to celebrate 25 years of Trainz in November 2026

I understand your point but Trainz Plus needs features not found in other versions to make the subscription a worthwhile choice. For example: Surveyor 2.0 appeared in Plus when TRS19 was the retail alternative. Full HD, full Multiuser Surveyor and the early release of TLR are currently the Plus only features over TRS22. I am certainly aware that HD will not be everyone favourite option - it has a huge file size penalty that would require more work on the compression algorithm when saving to resolve.

Possibly the next retail version (TRS25? or TRS26) may contain the full HD while Plus gets an updated and complete TLR, for example.
