Rizky_Adiputra: Andi is making an payware Yamanote line so it will be coming.
I had last few days trouble with trainz (game freezing) so I had to do an database repair twice which takes alot of time on my version but it works now.
Short version is below this wall of text
.
Before and afterwards the repair I was searching for the cause of lower performance on my layout which had decreased last few months quite noticable.
I Thought first speedtrees where the main issue but it seems to be the grass splines I used, I made an separate route of the same layout and removed all grass which increased performance very much, but the sections where the grass was located became very bare which I prefer not to release like that.
So I went back to the original and with the replacement tool and I quickely checked for lower detail versions which in the end also increased performance alot.
In the end I desided to change both the ground texture of the grass area's and the grass types which in distance mostly dissapears now (grass) while looking pretty good at short distance.
Strange enough the new grass looks pretty well but I think the main problem was that the grass I used mostly stayed the same at long distance which means the pc has to render most of the grass all the time which decreased performance, the same problem is with the high detail Nippon tracks which looks to me like they show 100% of the tracks all the time at every distance.
But since the new grass has different shapes then the old (better) I have to completly rework all grass sections of the route.
In short the type of grassplines I used on my layout will be replaced with others for better performance while I will use better detail ground textures which doesn't increase performance much.
I will release 2 different version of my layout, one with everything and the other I will remove all grass, change the speedtrees to lower detail trees and maybe some other things like low detail tracks, enz.
I will also release 2 different sessions for both maps which first one will include everything including trains on sidings, cabinet, while second one will have all ai trains only + one empty train for the player to use.
Also I show now two pictures of how the grass looks like currently on one area, I might show some more picture of future progress this or next week.
And yes I know Keihan 8000 is standard gauge

Random autumn picture, I completely forgot about this function of speedtrees.
