Turfx Locks Trainz 22 PE Steam Ed. (Linux Mint 22.2 zara)

[skittlekicks]

A new thing I have noticed is an issue with TurFX. When I go to edit the loading process locks the game to the point of have to force close through Steam. This was not a thing when I was on Windows 10. It is not a DB issue because I have rebuilt the thing several times (when I add a bunch of assets). This is not a hardware issue because this is the same computer I had Windows on.

Thoughts?

Turffx is basically a Windows only feature for the most part. More likely its trying to find a Windows component to help with a background task and since Linux doesn't have it, will cause the game to lock up.

If you were to run Trainz on a Mac, you'll see its disabled altogether with the exception of clutter.

I would try using Trainz with clutter only but with Turffx disabled (done in the settings on the launcher) under the performance tab.

Because Turffx is limited to Windows, N3V has been phrasing it out for their next major release (including Speedtrees but that's a different reason)
