The last time I played a Trainz game was TRS2006. That game had some issues but I loved playing it. Let's fast forward 15 YEARS later to TRS2019 where I decide to purchase this game again and put it on an amazing PC that can play this game no sweat, with everything on Ultra display settings. The game looks amazing, with one major issue. 90% of the assets in this game look HORRIBLE! It's the same old pixelated content that I played with 15 years ago. Are you kidding me? I go into Surveyor Mode on a blank map, lay down a section of track and start placing locomotives and rolling stock and most of it is still the same horrible looking assets from TRS2006 and older. I played one of the tutortials and the logging camp is the same crappy low res asset that was back in 2006.
I figured I go to the Download Station to see if there are any high quality created assets. What do I find? An endless list of completely disorganized, badly named, poor description, poor thumbnail image assets created by users where you have absolutely no idea when it was created, what version of this game is was created for, if it's even compatible, etc. You can't even use the search filters to find content that was specifically made/updated for the version of the game you bought. There is probably thousands upon thousands of assets in the Download Station where assets for every version of this game ever created is just thrown in a huge pile and I'm supposed to spend endless hours searching through it all to maybe find a small portion of quality made - high res assets to use in this game? That Download Station is completely unacceptable, that after all these years, it's just a cluster F of assets all thrown together.
I am highly disappointed that I bought this game. If I disabled all of the low res 15+ year old content, there wouldn't hardly be anything left in the game to play with. This is NOT what I expect to get for my $50, assets 15+ years old that look like garbage. Before someone replies saying, "build your own content", 1. I don't know how, 2. I didn't buy this game to spend endless hours creating content, I bought it to play it.
I would love to play this game, and I'm hoping someone can reply to inform me (with links) where I can acquire quality high res assets for this game please. Buildings, interactive industries, locomotives, rolling stock, scenery, etc. I would be much appreciated.
Note to devs: Stop releasing a new game every year charging $50 where 90% of the assets are still from the games you made 15-20 years ago. Completely unacceptable!
