Re: RRT3 and Windows Vista... a solution

I have been pretty much of the opinion that the new crappy drivers that nVidia has been putting out are the primary reason that RRT3 doesn't work, or maybe it's the backward compatibility issues with DX10. I think that some of the graphical fixes that came in v1.05patch aren't able to work with the ...

Re: RRT3 and Windows Vista... a solution

You're right. Now, I've gotten 1.04 beta working. Unfortunately, CtC still doesn't. I'm trying out my NA monster with the higher farm, mine settings and lower density that we used in Crystal. The start was easier, since I could connect a ranch to Denver and make more money that way than building to...

Yes, there are a few ISO burning utils around the net that are free, and all of them will work equally well, as ISO is a standard format. also any dvd burning software that came with your burner (or with...

I couldn't remember, as I am water cooled, but for future reference, remember to open up the case periodically and blow out the heatsink, as dust tends to collect in the fins (that has cost me more than 1 CPU!!) not sure how the local enviornment is for you, but here in the high desert of SW Idaho, ...

And if all you have is an ISO file, then it is most likely going to be construed that you have an illegal pirated copy and most likely there will be no help.

if that is not the case, then please explain the circumstances further and I be more than happy to be of some assistance

Paint Kits?

Has anyone thought of perhaps producing "Paint Kits" for the locos? like produce a blank texture pack done in multi-layered *.psd format to enable a more detailed skins... I can paint locos and all, and have plenty of reference photos (I live 150 yards from Union Pacific mainline) but I ca...

no probs... got nothing but time :D ... actually, more of what I'm trying to figure out is how to add the buildings and cargos into the mix of things, unless that is dictated by the exe. If that is the case then I'll just have to wait for a bunch of folks smarter than me to figger it all out :D ... ...

Thanks, we appreciate it. btw, if you are considering Vista... STAY AWAY from Home Basic... spend the extra $$$ on Home Premium or better.. Basic is a real pain in the behind to manage files in... :D hopefully, modding can continue on the Vista platform from here, and we can see parallel development...

after tinkering around some more with this, unfortunately, nothing from the unofficial v1.06 patch (excepting the loco pack, also available seperately) functions with the v1.04 beta patch. I have no way of determining whether the patching program will alter the beta patch, as the program specificall...

RRT3 and Windows Vista... a solution

After 10 hours of solid searching and seemingly 50 reinstalls, I think I found the solution to the Windows Vista problem. I discovered a BETA patch that was released from Take2, and is available at Gamers Hell. The v1.04 Beta, available here: http://www.gamershell.com/download_5729.shtml appears to ...
