Hi Trainzers,
Firstly, let me explain the purpose of this thread. It's to help collect Content Manager tips and tricks for any version of the tool, from Content Manager Plus in Trainz Railroad Simulator 2006 right up to Content Manager 3.6 in Trainz Simulator 12.
When posting a tip or trick, please state which versions it applies to (or 'any version' if it can apply to any version). If you are not sure which Content Manager version you have, it is usually stated in the title bar of the application, as well as in the Help>About option.
I will start things off with a couple of useful tips.
Filtering out content higher than your Trainz version
This can be done by adding the following two search terms to a search.
AND NOT
Minimum Build Version = (version directly above your current version - see http://online.ts2009.com/mediaWiki/index.php5/Trainz-build for the Trainz-build information)
For example, if you have TS2009 SP3, your search would include:
AND NOT
Minimum Build Version = 3.3
Quick way of downloading content
If you wish to download a piece of content quickly using Content Manager, you can right-click the asset and click 'Download'. This will automatically place it into the Download Helper list and start to download it.
