Smr Simple!

Great work guys!!! Looks like everything made the trip and it's much faster loading too

Karsten, what size is the map? It looks great and I'm hoping it's not too big to play on my pc.

There's a demand for just about any engine but for me I'm more into late steam/early diesel so the Alco would be sweet as would the SW1, a Century series, a Trainmaster, C-Liner or a whole lot more I could name.

Wood makes sense because the early steam engines were wood burners and the RRoads had to stockpile wood at every little whislte stop so they could refuel and water up. Makes sense to me anyway

Thanks for the map Jancsika I've only played halfway through the first era so far but it's fun and different. The best part is no CTD's so far either. It sure is great to see new maps coming out now and again!

re the missing sound files: yeah, got those errors in the log since day 1 but according to the log they don't seem to be my problem as the CTD seems to happen long sfter the sound errors show. dual steamers- Been awhile ao I may have to try a few maps that have them but I can't say that those maps C...

Why does it matter if there's a distribution center or not? It just makes the game differesnt and "maybe" more fun. Lots of maps have new twists to make them different and that's probably all thats keeping anyone doing anything much around here. Personally it doesnt matter either way to me as my big...

No AI's is usually the way I play. Guess I'm just wierd

Both mid-east maps crash for me but it's been a long time since I played though I do remember it's always near the beginning.

couple a years or longer by the look of it

I play almost every map and I have only 1 gig. I get CTD's like everyone else and they are usually caused by a faulty or conflicting xml though I'm also aware that on occasion SMR just either runs itself out of memory or does some other stupid thing. There's been numerous threads on this subject and...

Happy new year to one and all. May the coming year be prosperous, safe and above all filled with playing railroad games

To add on to Kroguys a bit. If you are in hard and run a long section of track, a train can be held up there if another is in front of it. This can cause delays if you are trying to get Goods to a certain town by a certain time. The adding of one or more towers can get the train further down the tr...

Random would be nice but as Warll says its another one of Firaxis' bu.....ahem features

We're going with a all-in one KISS installer because A. anything harder then KISS will start to lose us users. B. We can market it on Moddb.com as a mod, if we split all this up into 5 different packs it would not be any better then what we have nowadays. Maybe a little not not worth the effort. Be...
