In the drop-down menu which has edit route, edit session, select edit environment.
Please explain...all Edit Environment does is change weather, lighting, etc.

Check in the main options menu, I know for TRS19 there was the option to disable Turf/Clutter FX so may be in the same place in 22.

Sorry missed one out, it is the bottom one under edit environment.
It is labelled "Edit Effect Layers".
Got that OK.
"WARNING: This effect type is disabled in the game settings."
What game settings? I've looked at every game setting I could find but no "enable turfFX setting."
Thx.

Launch screen, Settings, Performance, Detail Scenery.
Thx Stagecoach.
Didn't catch that critical detail in any of the NV3 tutorials.
IMHO, The "Clutter + TurfFX" setting should be default.

Even better if it auto detected on install by GPU. Windows now controls my NVIDIA cards automatically, and mobile should be off, and Mac off. So in code off by default, GPU detected, turn on.

Hello there trainzers.
I have a question about these Turf Effects.
The description of Trainz Railroad Simulator 2019 on Steam mentions this Turf Effect:
Why is it called NVIDIA Turf Effects ?
Does it work only on NVIDIA GPUs ?
Does it work slowly on AMD and Intel GPUs ?
Thank you.

It is made by NVIDIA
Works on PC's with DX11
Not sure how well it works on other GPU's

Can someone with AMD and Intel GPU in your PC do some tests with these Turf Effects please ? Thank you.

Can you point us to that announcement (link to it) please ? Thank you.
It was in the Trainz Newsletter which arrived in my inbox 1 Sept 2023 (I eventually found in my Trash folder). The relevant section I have quoted below:-
Next-gen Clutter System
TurfFX (our solution for rendering dense grass) has always been limited to Windows which means other platforms and hardware do not experience some finer details of a route. The next generation of Clutter is changing this!
We are continuing to enhance the Clutter effect layer with the eventual aim of superseding TurfFX entirely. Clutter will introduce many enhancements including bulk mesh animation to allow wind effects on all types of foliage.
This cross-platform technology is expected to increase visual fidelity across Windows DX11 and MacOS.
