i have trainz2010. it's a great piece of software but where is the support. your download station offers no scenarios for 2010. when searching the internet one hardly finds any scenarios or sessions or layouts or routes for 2010. razorback railway doesn't support it. trainz pro routes says they will in the near future. but they have beeen saying this for quite some time. trs2004 has much greater support but it will not load on my windows 7 64 bit system.

Content for Trainz is contributed for the most part by the community. Routes and sessions take time. A decent route takes lots of time. TS2010 has only been out for - what - a couple of years? It could easily take a couple of years to build a good sized route, never mind the sessions. And that's before you allow for the fact that route-building in TS2010 is different from building routes in earlier versions - or at least it is different if you are going to take advantage of the potential of the 'new' way things can be done.

Build a route? After two years I am still just trying to get my head around the new concepts...

I just did a check of the number of routes available on the DLS for TS2010. The total is 285 routes for build 3.2 & 3.3. There are also 169 routes for TS2009, build 2.9 thu 3.1.
Make sure your favorites option is not selected and start downloading:) .

;) And the rest of support here --> http://forums.auran.com/trainz/index.php
by people like Willey Finishzit, Kenny Dooit & Betty Doant, and thousands more... ;)

Not to count our myriads of Third Party Sites and Forums where everybody (or almost everybody) is welcomed and supported.

The also supporting side of Alberte :wave:

My dear Friend,

Trainz is like Linux (Ubuntu) for me ;)
I spended almost 2 years to get the hang of it. (it=Ubuntu).
To find out that Windows is the OS which can do everything I want.

But thank you for the link!

Cheers,
Theo.

I know that video...
But how to start a real existing route.

Let's say from London to Thirsk (Yorkshire)
Or Pickering to Grosmont.

Thx.

Well if you find someone who has done it and who wrote instructions, there ya go. But if as I suspect no one has done it OR wrote instructions if you want to do it and put so much faith on written instructions I would suggest you write them as well...

Everything in life doesn't require written instructions. There are just certain things you know how to do. The brain (okay most brains) is very adept at operating a very intuitive interface.

I mean I can sum it up for you and tell you how to start a real existing route,

1. Get Trainz (You already have it so that's a good start)

2. Get TransDem

3. Read, reread, reread again, reread once again every word in the TransDem manual and follow every tutorial.

4. Get the DEM, download the rasters, download the UTM tiles, export all that from TransDem to a Trainz map (all that information is covered in the TransDem manual) TransDem will even lay track, roads, water, fence, walls or any type of spline for you if you want it to.

5. Open your map in surveyor and lay track, and place assets.

That's how you start one, I don't really know what more you want, I don't think anybody's going to hold your hand and walk you through each and every step as you learn. Some things take self-determination.

Now if you're going to somehow say that there are numerous tutorials for railworks, I guess that could be because many of railworks users lack self-determination and using your words real talent…

But those five steps are all that's needed. It really doesn't get any simpler than that and using those five steps I have created well in excess of 40 true to life maps, now have I completed all of them into routes? Not yet, but I have the actual maps with actual satellite imagery to place assets and track. It's just a matter of time getting around to finishing them.

Thank you!
There are good tutorials for RW :)
I did some of the work in reading them and adding some needed steps.

Sometimes I wish I had 4 hands....:hehe:
But if wishes were horses he :)

You deserve a tea with a Eccle's cake :)
