Trainz Plus - enjoy Trainz from just 20 cents a da
Hot on the heels of the Trainz Plus Update 2, we're now ready to begin external testing on Update 3. This update focuses on improvements to the management of your DLC packages with a new "Content Store" downloader that replaces the in-game UI.
You can now browse all DLC items and choose which items you want to install, uninstall, purchase or update. The current implementation uses the "multi-part" packages but also supports a new "one-part" download that will eliminate the "partial install" problems.
Features:
Content Store Downloader
NOTE: If you exit with incomplete tasks, they will restart when you next start Trainz.

Other Changes:
Known issues:
Happy bug hunting and please let us know what you think of the new system.
For Gold Class customers, If you want to download new DLC items, visit MyTrainz > MyMemberships and select any items you haven't yet selected. (You can always uninstall unwanted items again later).
