If the item is payware from RRMods then yes, tell them about the problem. But also, if you sent in a bug report to N3V you would have received an automated reply. That email would have told you that if you had any additional information about the problem then reply by appending the additional info to their email.
Trainz Update Announcement (SP5)
- Thread starter n3v_laurence
- Start date
It's actually industry standard to have 12 pages worth of major issues on a service pack announcement thread.

A great update! This motivated me to never buy another N3V product again lmfao
Frankly I don't think anyone thinks about the fact that they have so many opinions on how N3V messes up Trainz, but don't really think about how THEY would do trying to develop a game on THEIR OWN GAME ENGINE, with 80% of the content graciously made by THE COMMUNITY. If you want to trash the devs, then go create a better game engine and train simulator, and ho boy, you better make every update perfect for EVERY opinionated player that owns your game!
If you don't like Trainz, don't play it, and don't make flame messages to the devs who did all the work to make the game.

But they just released a castrated version of TRS22 and renamed it to TRS22 Model Railroaders Edition .
I’ll have no problem never touching the game again. Please reread the last line of my previous post. Thanks!

I think this company spitted its community in the face so many times during the years . Just ask the content creators ( for example Sirgibby ) how many times they have had to start over a route / session update , because the company released a patch / service pack or even a new version of the game that made years of work obsolete because of compatibility issues .

I know what they say about arguing with idiots but......
It seems to me that the logical conclusion of the more hysterical posts so far is that N3V should never try to improve the game (which they clearly have over the years) and therefore we should all still be playing Trainz CE?
Updates break stuff, and my experience so far (20+ years) is that it gets fixed.
As for compatibility, as I type I'm testing some new steam physics on a route first built in TRS2004; how many other games/sims can you do that in?

Quite true. Updates are a part of improving games and in some cases just keeping them plain usable due to OS restrictions or compatibility for example. Plus, if you don't want the updates N3V does not force them (like online multiplayer games or Windows do for example), and you can choose which build you want to some extent. In the end, no game with continuous development (Trainz Plus, Fortnite, Halo Infinite, etc.) ever stops getting updates, for better or worse. Epic rolls out mandatory updates for Fortnite every month or so! We in the Trainz community should be thankful that N3V doesn't force every service patch on users so that they get stuck with something they don't prefer.

Thanks for making me laugh .
With the language you used in your previous post, you will be no loss to the Trainz Community.

It's been 10 days since my last post in this thread and all is still running great with Mac version 128490. Haven't seen a single "Pop Under" error/info message. Picked up some tips on a thing or two from posts, otherwise, I did run a DBR just to see if anything would break, nothing alarming or out of the norm. Flying around 22,000MB/s with new OWC Accelsior 8M2 setup across PCIe Gen 4 x16, so Trainz is happy. Great job Devs.

well golly gee, my game has been working stable as ever since this update released! no issues with the trackside objects being placed, no issues with a sticky camera snapping to random angles, and definitely no issues with loading multiple queues with the same commodity in a single car.
... then again, I also haven't patched and am still running build 123794. Good luck everybody else! So happy to pay into the software as a service ideology for this kind of stuff!

I think posts #232 and 233 speak to @2995Valliant's and my opinion. While updates can have bugs overall they are still there to improve, and those cases where they do break the game is not necessarily the fault of the devs or patch but user error or a fault in the installation. Either way it's the exception, not the norm.

Hey AFdude06, I cannot find NCTD Coaster BBL Coach Phase II on DLS, I tried to rebuild database but it didn't work, Can you send me on google drive?
NCTD Coaster BBL Coach Phase II on DLS (Trainz Website)
NCTD Coaster BBL Coach Phase II on actual DLS
The game doesnt have to be perfect but I expect key features of the game to work after I update. It feels like the devs of trainz don't even play the game.
I agree!
They do not use the game. Their lead programmer, Windwalkr (Chris Bergemann) said so. In the early days of Trainz, this was a requirement by Greg Lane. The route or whatever they used for testing didn't have to be perfect but it was something to see what issues people were having.
I have never tried using Google Drive, so I don't know if I can do that, but I will create a new version and re-upload to the DLS. Thanks for the heads up.
