Re: The Great Northwest
I have spent some time over the holidays doing a little railroad work. I wanted a new lighthouse for this map, so I built this one: New_white_lighthouse.jpg I still have one more engine to build and test and then I should have the pieces I need. That said, I do seem to be adding and subtracting thin...

Re: The Great Northwest
Another engine ready to run - the Great Northwest Railroad Shay number 2. Many thanks to wingsofphoenix for constructing this model. I'm sure many hours went into this project. It's a beauty.

Re: Heart of Texas
The gremlins are finally gone. I have run this map through twice more with no issues. I have finished the testing and now I have to create the images for the Events.xml and for the Scenario goals. That will take a little while, but I feel like I am gaining on things again. Starting to think about th...

Re: Heart of Texas
It looks like things are back on track. I have run the map through 6 times, adding things as I go. So far so good. There have been a number of adjustments along the way. Now I'm ready to make a few goal adjustments and start testing for playability. I don't think that's actually a word, but it seems...

Re: Heart of Texas
I'm stumped. I have made major changes to this map twice now and I can't get it to run all the way through the scenario. I have gone so far as to replace all of the industries, annexes, traincars and engines with SMR standard stuff and at this point, it won't even start. I am going back to the drawi...

Re: Heart of Texas
I'm afraid that this map is going to be late in coming out. Apparently I have a memory leak. I can get about 3/4 through the map when it crashes to the desktop. I tried running it on my old laptop with the same result. The actions being taken in the game at the time of the crash varies. I really hav...

Re: Heart of Texas
I have finally reached the point of starting playability testing. All the industries, train cars, etc have been moved from my test map to the actual map and re-tested. I have a preliminary set of goals. Now I have to figure out if they are any good. This phase is the toughest. Time to get started.

Re: Heart of Texas
I have completed the last engine for use on this map - the Missouri-Kansas-Texas Railroad GP38 number 306. MKT_GP38_306.jpg At this point everything has been built for this map - industries, goods train cars, etc. All have passed their first test. I have map work to do as well as a bunch of odds and...
