UKTrainz Forums * View topic - external downloads, how do you get them on trainz - 0 views

    * Reply with quote * Report this post Re: external downloads, how do you get them on trainz New postby glbotu on Sat Jul 26, 2008 5:30 pm Right, what have you actually downloaded. If it is a cdp file (with the green icon), then simply double click it and it should install by itself, removing the cache file so that it can re-build itself. If it is a .zip or a .rar file with other files inside, extract to /TRS2004/World/Custom/Trains and it should work. If you have done both/one of those things, then you are probably missing dependencies. To check this, go to http://www.tafweb-trainz.co.uk and download trainz objectz. This program can find if objects have missing assets (don't let it fix anything when loading it can go wrong). When the grids are loaded (this will make sense when you have installed and run the program) right click on the piece of content and click "check dependencies". It will then give you an option to find missing assets on the DLS. Do this. Ensure you are registered with the download station. http://www.auran.com/TRS2004/DLS.php. If things STILL aren't working then re-install trainz and re-download/install the content.

    MERGING REQUIRED!!!!!!! He gave me his progress while I had only TC and almost everything was missing, and it wouldn't let you go to newark because, thats pretty much entirely off of TRS2006 dependencies. I merged and everything worked perfectly. If you haven't done so, you should check out the forum. I'll ur basically doing is copying all of the dependencies from the 06 folder to the TC folder. I'm pretty sure just 06 will wrok better than just TC but tou'll still be missin quite a few things. Davis

    I want to thank everyone who has downloaded some of my content. Although 500,000 downloads pales in comparison to some of the great creators that we have, I feel very honored that my content has been popular enough to pass the 1/2 million mark. Thanks everyone for the support and encouragement to keep creating and hopefully get better in what I'm trying to do. Mike

    At the DLS there are, right now, 60 LARS-compatible freight cars available that were created by Meridious. Look for them under his KUID number (87907) or click on his DLS contributor ticket. All of the LARS-compatible freight cars have the letters LARS at the end of their file name.

Drive to Trackmark List - Trainz Discussion Forums - 0 views

  • I have a situation in a session where I need AI trains to drive to one of four possible refuel points. The target trackmark must of course be unoccupied. I Have downloaded the driver command 'Drive To Trackmark List' (Kuid2:61392:1050:?) which appears to offer the solution.
  • Hi Andy and thanks for your interest in my DriveToTrackMarkList driver command. to use it to drive to one of your 4 refuel points, you need first to add under surveyor a trackmark to each of your refuel points and name each trackmark like : myrefuelpoint(1) myrefuelpoint(2) myrefuelpoint(3) myrefuelpoint(4) and save your route.

Switch Tower Lisa Scenario - Trainz Discussion Forums - 0 views

  • Cascade: In several of my scenarios, the automated ones of course, the view is from the ground actually from the perspective of the brakeman relining the switches and uncoupling. I have tried over the years to vary things so the scenarios would not get boring. That was the thought behind the tower view. Believe me scenario creation is no easy task but once in a while I get some very positive comments and that makes it worth while. Enjoy your hobby, I sure do. Gary
  • From the Uk perspective, try this post, you may of seen it already, it relates to someone suspected in trying to steal IP belonging to a member in the MSTS community: http://forums.auran.com/trainz/showp...2&postcount=12 And for the whole story: http://forums.auran.com/trainz/showt...179#post409179 (note, I am not an expert at law, so don't take my word as 100% true.) __________________

Splitting a train automatically - Trainz Discussion Forums - 0 views

  • If you have your train drive to a trackmark and uncouple. The first section then departs via a trigger. A spare engine is parked in a siding and when the trigger is activated its driver moves to the remaining part of your train and then drives it in accordance with the instructions you have already input for him. i.e Main train has instructions similar to.. Drive to trackmark, Uncouple from, Drive to London. Spare engine has instructions similar to ... On trigger move to unit x. Drive to Bristol.. This should also work in reverse so that you can re-couple the two sections of your train and return the spare driver to the spare loco.
  • Ive been doing this for years, dont use a trigger as another train can sometimes set it off. You need a spare driveable asset (I use a car parked in the station car park), it will need a driver which you set up with all the commands for the tasks he will do as the second train. You need two trackmarks at each end of station named say P1 Dn and P1 Up. You will need the commands Post Message and Wait for Message and clear also the move to train at trackmark. Dont use move to train as the commands dont go with the driver. Add to the start of spare drive the command Wait for Message.

Trainz Discussion Forums - View Single Post - Error: The *.texture.txt file is missing ... - 0 views

  • Jeff, I downloaded that kuid and get this error window: Warning: Tag 'autoanimation' in the container 'scenery' is obsolete. Warning: The *.texture.txt file is missing for texture resource 'C:\Program Files\Auran\TS2009/local/hash-E7/content 985rc5j735/wave.texture'. Error: The Tag 'credit:' is not permitted within a container of type 'scenery'. Error: The Tag 'thanks' is not permitted within a container of type 'scenery'. Notice that the first 2 lines are warnings, not errors. They have a yellow triangle with an ! in it. This means you can ignore them. The last two lines start with a red circle with a white X in it and are errors. The assets will work as is but if you want to get rid of the 'errors', edit the config.txt file to delete the offending lines.

Best process for creating routes - Trainz Discussion Forums - 0 views

  • 1. Baseboard Layout 2. Track 3. Texture 4. Topolgy 5. Detailing (roads, cities, etc)
  • here's an infinite number of ways to do it, but I generally do it the same way as previously mentioned. I try to work on no more than 3 or 4 boards at a time although I have worked on 10 or 12 at a time. If you get too many boards out there, the task can seem overwhelming and you can easily become discouraged. I usually work in this order: 1. track (fixing spline point elevations as I go) 2. terrain (bringing terrain to track) 3. adjust remaining terrain to my liking 4. add buildings and roads. sometimes bldgs first and sometimes roads first 5. a base texture, usually copied and pasted 6. signals 7. foilage 8. details I find it important not to work in your signalling and test the route out as you work. If you get the route too big before testing, then it can become a daunting task to find problems with your layout.
  • Well, I remeber an old article, but I don't know where it is. This is how I would do it. 1. Terrain 2. Trackwork 3. Roads 4. Buildings 5. Landscaping 6. Textures This is how I would do it. I look forward to pics
  •  
    My 2.1 cents worth - I like to use existing terain and put on my civil engineering and surveyors hat to find the best locations for tracks and roads. I leave the grey with yellow grid during this process as it helps me to visualize the nuances of the terain. Once track and roads are down, I texture the roadbeds. (And don't forget all the foreign roads that cross your railroad and provide interchange traffic.) Next I place depots, terminal faciilities and industries. Next comes signalling At this point I have an operational railroad. I can choose to run trains or work in adding details. __________________

Saving trackmark sequences? - Trainz Discussion Forums - 0 views

  • In the schedule Library rule you give a name to the first schedule then place all the driver commands for that section of the route you want it to take. This includes all industry or stations plus trackmarks. (Make sure you have the drive via or drive to trackmark commands ticked in the driver command rule) Select the next/add schedule give it another name etc etc. One of the driver commands is copy commands from. Place this in your selected train, even ones created in a portal, and you will get a second menu appear with amend or insert. Highlight one and another screen appears which you select to copy from another train or from the library. Pick Library and you get a list of all the routes you put into it. When AI gets this command he will then follow the route in the library.
