Wheel Problem

[martinvk]

yes they updated the drivers but i tried the game on several other computers and it didn't work either. And I even bought a new copy of Trainz thinking maybe it was something with the disc. But the new copy did the same thing.

What graphic cards did these other computers have? Curious that they all had your problem.
Is anyone else using the OP's graphic card?

video card is a Vision Tek Radeon HD 5450. 4094MB Ram.

I don't know what kind of graphics cards they had but it used to work on my laptop and I never upgraded that one and it worked fine before so I dont think its the graphics card.

OK, was there an automatic Windows upgrade during this time frame? Check the upgrade logs to see if this happened. How about other automatic upgrades?

Something changed in your system. The question is what.

Try Directx 9.c

I checked the update log and it said that there were updates installed to the system.

I noticed that the locomotive in your screen shot is payware. Did you also get the bogies for it or perhaps edited the config file?

It's not just that engine though it is every train in the game.

Including STEAM?

 

[josefdoc]

yes steam also.

Well if as you say it is an across the board phenomenon, then there is something not right with your system. You say there were automatic upgrades made. You coud try backing out of them one at a time to when it was working in order to attempt to find the change that caused this. Not for the faint of heart. Be sure you have a complete backup of your whole computer, even two copies on different external drives, just in case something goes wrong.

But it is not just one computer it was several computers that I tried it on.

None of this makes any sense. I think I am done here.

 

[josefdoc]

What I meant is I installed the game on two other computers and the screenshots came out black and the wheels disappeared. So I dont think it is my desktop.

 

[josefdoc]

But if it installed an update by itself how would I make it so the update didn't install, and would it be something related to the C++ Visual Studio.

 

[josefdoc]

Would I have to reverse the update?

Thanks

 

[josefdoc]

Would I reverse it in windows update?

Thanks

 

[josefdoc]

Would it have anything to do with a framework update?

Thanks

[josefdoc]

I am still having this problem, I have tried reversing the update, but couldn't find the update. Does anyone know whats wrong?

Thanks
