Trainz Plus Beta 111069 (PC) and 110923 (Mac)

Holy moly... running 110923 (Mac) on my M1 Mac Mini natively on Apple Silicon with Metal.
I'm still experimenting with performance settings, but I'm already able to run a session in
one of Roy's demanding CPR routes with decent settings like 10,000 m draw distance at 50 fps.

Happy camper here!:D
 
The performance (frames per second) has been halved.
Canadian Rocky Mountains - Columbia River Basin -Golden Airport North West Route
iMac Retina 5K 27 inch 3.6 GHz Intel Core i9 processor
64 GB DDR4 memory
Radeon Pro Vega 48 8GB graphics card
Mac OS Big Sur 11.1
 
(Already posted in Trainz Mac and filed as a bug report)
In my case performance (frames per second) roughly halves, resulting in a lot less fun.
MacBook Pro 15 inch 2018 (2.6 GHz 6 core i7, 16 GB, Intel UHD Graphics 630 and Radeon Pro 560X)
macOS Big Sur 11.2
Plus Beta, Kickstarter County 2, 01 Highland Limited
Build 110495: about 45 fps
Build 110923: about 20 fps
 
Thanks for the feedback on the Mac results. Very surprising indeed.

Please check that the settings for each test are identical, including the Trainz Settings > Performance tab and in-game options.

Also ensure that your dedicated card is being used not the integrated graphics.

I’m unable to attempt to try the maxed out settings before the patch as the game crashes when loading the session.
 
What just happened to my 111069 installation? So, I decided to open Trainz today, and I get a new version available notice, so I choose notify me next week, thinking I opened the wrong build. So I exited the game and did a relaunch, on the startup I get a DB rebuild and from the looks it looks like an extended DBR. I opened CM and to my dismay all changes that I made are gone, back to the default screen, small fronts and install/modification dates set to 02/07/2021. Also my Trainz sign-in is missing?? Is there a new build or what?

I don't get an update notification on my 111069 beta installation. And I can't recall ever using the "notify me next week" option. Perhaps you should submit a bug report based on the above.

As soon as the EDBR is finished I will submit the bug.

In both instances on start of previous installation:
EDBR took 5 hours, it was performed automatically. This the second instance of this occurring.

1. In both instances CM was set to default, user custom menu removed
2. In both instances all CM items were set to the default date
3. In both instances a large number of my assets on the DLS are not shown having a U/L date
4. In both instances the display menu in Surveyor is the default menu, no pick lists.
5. In both instances the settings menu have defaulted to new install.
6. In both instances over 1200+ assets were shown as faulty
7. In both instances my user info had to be re-entered in the settings menu and when doing so, the faulty assets were reverted to normal.
8. No problems with payware installed not active.
9. On the first install and after a couple of days all of my consists disappeared and are still absent on the second install.
10. In both instances on the start screen, the routes menus takes forever to load as does switching between the loco menu and route menu.
11. In both instances there is a one min+ delay when deleting objects and copy/pasting before the action is completed.

Was this a new install of TRS19? as it looks as if you have installed a new download which has then asked for the update. The missing user info is another clue that this is a new install as an update did not remove that info. This sounds like you have not changed the install path in settings to your old build folder or replaced the present build folder with a copy of the old folder.

Not a new download, same folders and settings as the previous build, nothing changed.

I had the same thing.

I redownloaded the content and those faults went away for some. For other content, a revert to original one some of the assets removed the missing dependencies on others.
 
No clock is shown unless a driver is selected.

SP2 works fine; this version does not.

Bug reported.

Bug reported.
 
Driver Surveyor menu is messed up. Bug reported.

The source defaults to purchased, which is okay.

Personal routes appear under the purchased selection even if they're not.

If the list is changed to installed, then all these routes too will then appear under the purchased filter.
