    I’m in for all phases.


    Just imagine if there is a Linz Wien route at some point. What an enormous Austrian/German network we would have.


    Then imagine if the Rorschack Konstanz and Offenburg/Freiburg/Hausach got connected too.

    alias203 ich gebe dich vollkommen Recht. That hole must be closed. Hausach Offenburg too, så we have a real big southwestern. Railnetwork. And if the last km between Rorschach and Konstanz were to be connected, we are talking Düsseldorf - Innsbruck - Linz - Nürnberg erc etc etv


    Two small projects that could unite south german rails with the expansive Austrian railnet. And a bit of swizz too.

    Here is a solution that might be more elegant. I am making a comparison to the music program Logic Pro for explanation. Here you can hide audio tracks.


    That could be used on routes, scenarios and even consists in quickdrive.


    It would go like this. Have a little hide tickbox in the mentioned items. Have a master hide tickbox somewhere. When that box is ticked, all items marked hide is hidden. And when not, all items marked are shown.


    That way we get much more user flexibility, than an auto-hide function.


    oldsnake track lenght would be much preffered if possible. When driving mountain routes with bends and twisted valleys, it is really wierd to see the distance to a stop increasing.

    tom87 I might try some UK content one day. But my heart is with the German/Swiss/Austrian content. It is an emotional attraction to these countries that i’ve felt since childhood. I don’t think anything from outside these will ever interest me. I have som UK routes that have come with TS updates, but i’ve never played them even once. Italian content would be of interrest to me.

    Adding to my previous post. And what would we be left with? TSW payware, and hundred TS freeware projects, where maybe 5% gets finished. (Not a disrespect to freeware developers, i think it is beyond fantastic that anyone sees a route to completion, it’s hard and tedious work).


    Let’s see. What routebuilders that build German content are left? DTG, VirtualTracks and RSSLO. And ofcourse Vt builds wonderful stuff, but with two years between every release, that will not be enough to keep payware TS alive. Jan is also not building for a living and his preference for the time being is the Berlin sbahn net, of which he ofcourse makes a wonderful job. DTG release one german route a year (or maybe it’s closer to 1,5?). So without RSSLO we get about 1 main German route a year. Not enough to keep the simulator we all love alive.


    Ok i know i put German/Austrian routes into the same basket, and perhaps it’s just because my interest is both countries. We can add Swiss routes. B42rail are the only ones left, and they do take their time too. So they do not count for a lot of content. Rivet Games are sadly gone from TS. But i seem to recall that the Gotthardbahn was 35€ too. And i do not think it was particularly prettier than RSSLO routes. RSSLO vegetation has at least become more varied. And their tracks are (imo) worse than RSSLO tracks.

    Going to play the devils advocate here.


    Everything gets more expensive. Software developers have to pay higher prices to live too. That a routebuilder should be locked to the same price as 5 years ago is a strange thought.


    As to the Rübeland comparison. As Maik Goltz has stated. Even when building a high quality short route, the amount of work that goes into it, does not bring in enough to make a living. So to expect that 120km of route be cheaper and just as beautiful is an impossible expectation. And either we support the developers, or payware TS dies. It’s as simple as that. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news. If there was good money in routebuilding long routes like Münster Bremen, then routes like that would still be made. But even when a high quality route is released, someone will argue over the price.


    In two weeks, someone will have switched the tracks and vegetation and then everything is honky dory? ;)

    V200.1 I don’t think so. I see no parameter for routes that a KI consist is enabled for.


    So for now i think you still need ts_tools for that.


    oldsnake I think i have a little bug report. After the installation of RWEnhancer 2 i can’t turn off Procedural Flora in TS. I thi k RWe2 overwrites the setting. If that is the case, then an option to turn it off in RWe2 would be nice.


    Same thing with adaptive Bloom.
