I'm lost, I'm running 128487 and appear to have PF trees available. Am I doing something wrong?

Thanks John

No, the Plant Factory assets are trainz build 5.6 which is supported by your build. However, there may be additional features implemented in this new build.

You will be able to install them and have a look at them, but it highly recommended they only be used in a route after the update. If you try to bulk replace them using an older build, it will cause rendering issues.

I've installed the update and I appear to be having the same issues as others have reported. The track, in particular, is not appearing correctly. Performance is down ~20%.

The first video from my WIP route is from build 129343:

The next video shows the same scene in 131950 (note: the power station and QEII bridge don't appear):

The final video is something that caught my eye whilst not moving over a scene. It's stuck in a constant loop:

Note: all settings are the same between the builds, including draw distance of 22km.

Watch your chain link fences too. They draw in segments and parts disappear. You can see this as you pass by the cord of that wye going off to the left. I noticed that on my route as well. I replaced those with something else that appears to work.

The flag at the top of your signal where the cord comes in from the left to join the tracks you are on. The flag pops into the scene suddenly.

The tracks appear in chunks. That gets proportionally worse the more objects, especially rolling stock, is in the scene. It's as if the game engine can't keep up with what's going on. This also gets worse the faster the trains move.

All theses glitches were present in T:ANE at one time.

It is the same codebase. They just keep adding on to it and changing stuff. That is the way the software industry works these days. You pay full price every 3 years for maybe 10% improvement to the previous version.

Sometimes, even if the bug was fixed in a previous update, it's possible that some changes done in a recent update may cause the old one to reappear. We've seen that before many times.
