Trainz Model Railroad 2

[rlyates]

Awesome work Euromodeller! Wish I could get the hang of Trainz TMR17. I would much rather work on Trainz than Rolling Line. If you happen to know of any tutorial videos showing how to build rooms and layouts like yours I'd give Trainz another shot.

Again, nice work

How many rooms would you like?

Just add track and scenics and you are set to go.

Not so. Railways in the UK are always named as such. "The road" is a term applied to a length of track, eg. "The train has a clear road" and can proceed.

Same in New Zealand Ray. It's always been 'railway' here. If you'd said 'railroad' in my engine driver grandad's hearing he would have laughed at you if not told you straight that we only have railways here.

So perhaps, N3V could make 2 versions - Model Railway 2 & Model Railroad 2. That way we can buy the version whose terminologies suit the buyer best.

Or just call it Model Rails... ;-)

Linda, it is so wonderful to see you are still hanging around.

It reminds me of the old joke. We park our cars on driveways and drive on parkways.

But I was watching one of my favorite YouTube channels "Paul and Rebecca" where they explore the old stations and right of way of long abandoned railways in Britain. The old maps they use often have streets with names like Oxford Way but in modern maps the street is Oxford Road.

Topic drifted

Bringing things back on topic (a bit)…

No response from N3V to my suggestion re tweaks to the base game to suit the MR environment better.

I don't consider my work good enough to submit but noted with some dismay, those of us on "Standard" editions of TRS2019 are excluded anyway - only the top end users can contribute. Had been thinking about altering my signature to something more positive, but think I'll leave it as is...

[euromodeller]

I am on basic TRS19 too Vern, hadn't realised that I am not able to submit without having to pay to upgrade.
Then after paying to upgrade I would also have to then pay for the new TMR2 on top just to see a route that I made!
I will be a bit annoyed if assets that I use for making my model railway layouts end up as payware!

Me too Graham, even though I have a lot less MR assets than you do.

That hadn't occurred to me, sadly the way of things with the DLS licensing arrangement. They could at least give anyone who's assets end up in a route a discount voucher off the final product.

For me, I'm happy to plod away in Coach Class TRS2019, doing my own thing - currently trying to breathe life into CJ Freezer's old L11 from Plans For Large Layouts (the one based on lines around Exmouth).

More likely to end up as builtin if they are on the DLS, non of my assets used in DLC are payware now but builtin and not locked and they are all now on the DLS, was a slight glitch on a couple which Zec sorted out quickly.

Besides N3V are going to be using a different method for payware as far as I can gather which might stop these problems.

I'd suggest Euromodeller's Gardenbahn layout for including with TMR2 to show that you don't have to be limited to the indoor model railroads. I've got a Model Railroadz that's been sitting on my computer for a long time that's TRS19-compliant that I'd like to submit to TMR2, but I don't want to update to Trainz Plus, since I've got the Silver membership.

That would be very good news if they do Malc. The present system has caused endless problems.
