Here is your chance to experience almost 7½ hours of train journey on Bergensbanen in Norway.

And here is a 9½ minute cut in HD to give you a taste of the experience.

Enjoy!

I just paid a visit to the Canadian Rockies, and noticed that the - very long - freight trains moved very slowly through the high passes. It seemed to be not much more than walking speed - perhaps 10km per hour. It seemed awfully slow - but I guess this speed is necessary. Lower down, towards Vancou...

Thx, it worked like a charm.

I'm soooo tired of the loud cheers when I buy stock and the loud what-ever-it-is when I sell stock. I can't find a sound setting that disables them or turns down the volume. Is there a couple of files I can delete (safely)?

An alternative solution is to just let it check it (Time=75) and place it after the medals. That way the game will first check if gold medal condition is true, then silver medal and then bronze medal, and then give a loose event if none of the medals were triggered. But that would fire the Lose eve...

:oops: I have made another blunder!!! am sorry for the inconvenience I have caused. I hope you like my map anyway. :oops: Actually, I do. Pls tell me if I need to make other corrections than changing <= to >= in the Gold event. In other words, do I need to change the Lose event? Wouldn't the proper...

I checked the map in the editor. The Gold event checks for CBV <= 300000K, that should obviously be >= instead. However, I don't really understand how it triggers on my case, as the Gold event also has checks for PNW >= 150000K and industrial profit >= 150000K, and I didn't fulfil any of those. All ...

I got Gold as well in Jan 1907, but the Gold trigger is wrong. This was shortly after making the last required connection - to Miami this time. My CBV and PNW was too low for a Gold however.

Yeah, I have no money problems, perhaps except for PNW (I always have found this to be difficult). In my game (on Hard) I'm around 1900 with 2 AI's. I have spent some years trying to accumulate enough cash to merge with one of them, but it doesn't work (they increase in value almost as much as I acc...

The cotton flow problem eventually corrected itself. But I've got another one now. I bought a Steel Mill in Knoxville and set up an ample supply of Iron and Coal. I'm also hauling away Steel pretty fast (but maybe not fast enough). There's plenty Coal and Iron in Knoxville, yet the Steel Mill produc...

could it be that there was a Textile Mill there when the game was seeded that then disappeared? If there was, it would have generated a demand, and piling up of cotton, that takes several years to dissapate after the sink (Textile Mill) goes away. Usually factories don't get built in the middle of ...

Here s demand and supply: http://img218.imageshack.us/img218/502/rt3092807064031gw6.jpg The cotton does flow elsewhere, but I have the only rail connection to that farm, so it ought to be used. The farm is very profitable. So, is this just a matter of a strange supply/demand model in RRT3? It does l...

This is probably a problem with RRT3 itself or with 1.06b4 I have a cotton field in St Stephens and a Textile Mill in Mobile, connected via rail. But I can't move Cotton from St. Stephens to Mobile unless I force the train to move it. And it automatically takes it back. Mobile does not demand cotton...

Thanks. I found the button I need to click on to attempt a merger. I just needed to look in the right place.

So, I'll have to restart after fixing this, right?
Not a big problem, I haven't gotten too far and I'm having a bit of a problem earning money at start - have to rethink my opening strategy.

Here's the first problem report. Nothing serious, fortunately.

The second page is blank.
No AI, playing on Hard.

I have played RRT3 a good deal (always singleplayer), but this is the one aspect I have never really mastered. It still confuses me somewhat. I can find out how to do it - I think - going into the company list and clicking up an AI company. I then get a button that alows me to take over og merge wit...

Well, I don't know if "people" are still playing it, but I certainly am right now. I've got to ca. 1860 now, and have a few comments in case someone else want to try it. I like to play on Hard, but have done this one on Medium - I don't think I'd get very far on Hard with this one. First o...

You're probably right, milo. I copied the 1.05 No CD exe into the RRT3 install directory, named it RT3 NoCD 105.exe, made a shortcut to it on my desktop, and fired it up (having 1.06 beta 4 installed). So far it runs smoothly with Canada Bound v1.3 - that is about 5 years into the scenario. Oh, and ...

I have 1.06 beta 4 installed and have backups of RRT3.exe, both the original and a NoCD version. Can I switch to 1.05 simply by renaming RRT3.exe (for 1.06) to something else and my backup to RRT3.exe? I'm not sure if the patch changes something other than the exe file that breaks the 1.05 executabl...
