you know whats annoying?

Using that program can be a minefield, it will cough up loads of files that it thinks are deletable, but unless you are a computer program genius, you could well delete files that you need for other stuff on your machine, using ccleaner means that you have to KNOW which files you DON'T need.

Lots of cleaners and PC registry cleanup apps out there do more harm, than they do good.

I had Threatfire Antivirus, and it wanted to automaticly delete programs that it deemed a threat ... but they were NOT a threat at all

Ok my son wants to know if there is any information available about making content for trainz? He uses 3dsMax for most of his 3d work, but is willing to learn something new if need be. Thank you for any responses.

See this thread for the exporters appropriate to his version of 3DS. 3DS is fine. I know very little (the last version I tinkered with was 4 or 5) but it's what the Auran team uses, I believe. If he has any specific questions, they might be on that Wiki, or in the Content Creator's forum.

2004 and onwards

Okay, now for my bit.
I run 2004, 2006, TC3 and 2010. I can still get the OLD 2004 content because I bought a FCT from Auran/N3V plus all the NEW content for the later versions.
I count that as a bargain, all the assets that were ever made and placed on the DS, what's wrong with that.
And I create assets too for both 2004 and TC3 (and therefore 2010, I don't know about 1012 as I don't have it) and still upload, 2004 to the TPR site and TC3 to the DS.
So it is still possible to get older content, older as in the config is for earlier versions of Trainz, by going to other sites and how hard is that?
Come September no more TC3 content will be accepted for the DS so I am not sure what I will do after that date as yet, maybe just support the TPR site?
My FCT is due to expire at the end of January 2012 and I will be replacing it, still the best way for me to be able to access the Trainz Download Station and check old content if necessary.
Parts of my UK WCL routes used content of that period as do very many of the routes included on 2010 CDs sold by N3V so it is not pratical for them to take those off their DS. I expect that one day things will change when newer version routes are put on the CD and older ones taken off, but maybe not just yet.

I have great difficulty believing there is someone left in this world who thinks all good things are free. Where are you from mate, Hollywood? All hobbies cost money and you get what you pay for. If you think you should still get free stuff for an antiquated version of trains, then poor you, Wake up and get real.
It's a simple equation really. Anyone stuck in 2004 or 2006 should realise that the world has moved on. I cant understand why N3V even bothers to have 2004 stuff still on the DLS. It should be removed. Most of the grisslers who complain on this forum probably pay $4 for a coffee a day but refuse to pay a weeks coffee price for something that will last years.

Maybe you need to wake and realize that if you were to delete all the TRS2004 and TRS2006 content you would have thousands of missing assets and you use content from older versions and I know I do to and some of it is really good.

So your smart mouth comments and insults are not needed. And you're acting like a grissler because instead of being calm and just saying that if you want faster downloads then you might want to consider paying a few extra bucks but instead have to act immature.

Plus I can still download things for older versions of trainz but it might be slow but nonetheless able to but to get faster content yes you have to pay it's been a while since I last used TRS2004 and TRS2006 because the computer I have isn't very fond of those games and doesn't work as great with TS2009 although I have more freedom with this game then others but nonetheless those are classics.

Plus you don't have to pay to sign up, at least I didn't. And I think they are referring to the FCT. Yes newer versions have come out but people still have older versions for multiple reasons and maybe they have the latest ones.

And what about the people who spent all that time creating content for Trainz that me and others greatly enjoy?! That's a slap in the face and inconsiderate!!

I'm trying not be the one adding fuel to the fire but I've had enough of the constant bashing. We should get along, not fight and bicker. I've learned the hard way after being banned for two weeks and i'm trying to keep you from making the same mistakes I made because there's an article of a fellow rail-fan who committed suicide for being bullied and bashed which is what you're doing. If the thread gets closed, then it's on me, but come on seriously?

I hate this stuff and now I see why people are as sensitive as they are and the mods more strict because of these comments and responses, I could see if they're being rude and disrespectful to you or have personal issues and would like to rant privately but not out in public where others have to stand the stench of of dirty laundry.

Sorry about the 2 posts. My PC hung on me and I did a refresh when the post did upload. It seems it did in the first place as well but after about 5 minutes waiting for the post to be accepted and having nothing happen I thought it had hung.

Perhaps YOU need to wake up and realize that you're replying to a post from August. Once again, you're stirring a pot that has long since simmered.

 

[Kris94]

Well wake up and realize that doesn't give you the right to say such things. If I did that I would've gotten banned.

Nimec said nothing offensive and didn't attack anybody directly. YOU initiated a personal attack, however.

FYI, I do disagree with nimec's position on DLS content, but that doesn't mean he doesn't have the right to state his position.

 

[Kris94]

Nimec, I think you've gone a bit overboard with that post, not to mention being mildly offensive. The OP's post doesn't require an answer full of sarcasm or expletives.

Well PFX says otherwise and by saying are you from Hollywood is an insult because you're calling them divas, selfish, lazy and gimme pigs, and self-conceited. And it does give me the right to state his position because after as many people have attacked my and my state of position I can do the same. And I can pull it up for you if need be even though some of the people removed them so they can get away with it.
