KrakHarr I'm having similar issues.

From a post by Alex Ford of JT on UKTS:

Apologies ref these issues. We have introduced 3D modelled track into our common assets and it's now featured in N to E, but we have been caught out by these now visible track issues, we are however working now to sort them and will issue an update ASAP.

Update for route and scenario packs now available. Re-download from JT.

@tom87 To be honest, I have never bothered to download it, because it is such a hassle. Some like it, some don't. I haven't seen many scenarios for it, and the manual points of the original put me off. From what I read there are still some issues with it. No classes 310 or 501 either which means it's not good for my preferred era. The batch search for files on UKTS is useful if you have an account, saves a lot of time. If you wanted to download a lot of stuff, a one month subscription and a long list would be best, but I appreciate that may not be possible for you.

Update for Glorious Devon, from FB;

Glorious Devon 1960's has now had an update and is now V1.1.
The team behind the route have worked as quickly as possible to rectify some issues that were present with the first version, including the removal of duplicate asset references and to address some missing objects.
The download page now contains two files, one being the full route updated to V1.1, and another file that contains the update only, for existing owners of the route.
You can now download the update from the routes page of the DPSimulation website by clicking here.

From experience, the longer a strike goes on, the more people return to work. Hopefully your government won't look back in history at how our Mrs Thatcher reigned in the unions here, there are still many communities torn apart even now because of this. I wouldn't wish this on anybody. I will predict that there will be no true winners in this contest, only losers, it is always the same, although it can take a few years to become clear.

@NessaRevane Unfortunately Amazon software sales are country specific, so I couldn't take advantage. Although I am not a great fan of American trains. Next weekend I will be over in Augsburg for two weeks, I will no doubt visit the Lokschuppen and maybe a trip to a model shop in Nuernburg as well. My wallet will be hoping for some bargains, although probably not as good as that, fortunately my girlfriend is very understanding

That's what the sales are for

Personally I prefer this period or earlier before the modern drastic plastic. But each to their own. Drastic plastic is ok for a quick run when you are tired, but nothing beats a real solid old school engine and coaches/wagons, or even some of the old classic units, they had character and soul

New British freeware route on the way. 90% done according to the author

Slight issue with the folder structure; from a post on UKTS; fixing this will remove a lot of milk bottles and improve the route a lot.

"A lot of the unpacked assets aren't needed, so I have culled down the duplicates leaving only those required. But I do think this structure is incorrect "protocol", isn't it?

It's nothing to do with UNPACKING the .ap file. The route has actually duplicated the required assets into a new folder WITHIN the Riviera Line and West Somerset folder.

The locations are:

Assets\RSC\RivieraLine\RivieraLineAssets\ xxx

Assets\RSC\WestSomerset\WestSomersetAssets\ xxx

Read that twice, because your eyes and brain coordination may not interpret it correctly! . . . the actual assets need to be inside ANOTHER folder named RivieraLineAssets and WestSomersetAssets. Those assets are never going to be picked up by the Route unless you create a new folder and copy (duplicate) the required assets.

(the same happened with Hawksassets from UKTS 31994 as reference by Richard Fletcher above)"

Couple more screenshots. The signal assets are the most important freeware.

According to a post on UKTS the following are essential
Riviera
Falmouth
Isle of Wight
The rest being missing will result in the usual milk bottles,and the odd missing bridge. The scenarios provided are all steam I believe, but some Diesel scenarios are waiting for approval on UKTS. However it would appear that some of the freeware assets are also essential for the signalling on the route to function correctly ( or at least as correctly as TS allows)
Route is now available from the link above. Only had time for a 10 minute look.

DPS have now provided a PDF detailing the requirements for the Glorious Devon 1960's route. There are quite a few. The PDF can be found on this page http://dpsimulation.org.uk/routes.html direct links are not allowed.

New repaints from Richard Fletcher for the DTG BR class 415. Fron the DPS FB Page;
I have now uploaded several new repaints of the Class 415 '4EPB' EMU to the DPSimulation website, courtesy of Richard Fletcher. They are as follows, with excerpts taken from the documentation Richard has provided.
BR Blue
Reskin of the Dovetail Games NSE Class 415 unit into BR allover Blue livery. Some modifications
have also been made to the passenger view.
Changes have been made to the physics in line with actual operational experience. Two variants are
included, a standard 75mph set plus an 'express' unit that will attain 90mph - several sets were
geared for this speed (though 75mph max was still displayed in the cab).
BR Blue Grey
Reskin of the Dovetail Games NSE Class 415 unit into BR Blue Grey livery as carried prior to the
formation of Network SouthEast. Modifications have also been made to the passenger view, to better
fit the era I wish to portray.

BR Green
Reskin of the Dovetail Games NSE Class 415 unit into Malachite Green as applied latterly to SR
design set 5001, though modified to suit the BR design and numbered 5601. Modifications have
also been made to the passenger view, to better fit the era I wish to portray.
All of the repaints listed above have had physics modifications, tested and verified by an ex-EPB driver.
These repaints can be downloaded from the EMU section of Richard's page by clicking here.

@LordHeibo In real life flashing yellows are used on the approach to a junction. See here for an explanation http://www.rgsonline.co.uk/rul…gert8000-s1%20iss%201.pdf They are not correctly implemented in game
