Hawk & Badger Railroad Forum

You said that this may be a matter of the era, so to be able to control for that, could you please post here what eras are covered by the German car sets (express and troops)? The German troop/express car set was made by Holger Jürgenliemk and is the same set which is available for the standard RRT...

You know the old saying though; "You can't teach an old dog new tricks" . :mrgreen: I only know the saying "Don´t wake sleeping dogs" ... :-D :-D Konvertierung von RT3-Szenarien für Trainmaster.pdf Here´s the German version, containing the AI character table which can be underst...

How come the extra stuff isn't in the English version? This should be an incentive for you to learn German... ^**lylgh There was a passage about disabling/enabling industry buildings in the game and as I had recently played Blackhawk´s “Juice Train” map before translating, I thougt it would be a he...

The German TM version contains a translated version of this guide, including one or two additional hints and a chart containing the AI player characters in TM.

I've been absent from Railroad Tycoon 3 for quite some time. Just before Molse closed his site, I began getting back into the game, though, and have even started designing a few new maps. I am also wrapping up several older ones that I never finished before retiring from the community in early 2007...

There are still some maps left who have been made in German language and never got a translation into English, including some gems from Lama.

Just kidding... :-D If I ever create a map about the Silesian electric mountain railroads (1920 - 1945), I´ll ask you for a custom pak. But maybe this will never happen. If you are interested in pictures, look here and follow the links listed at the "Elektrische Lokomotiven" column (E 01, ...

I could compile a "wish-list" of the oldest German electric engines, such as the E 73 (1914), E 49 00 (or EP 211/212, 1921) or E 16 101 (1928).

I personally agree in voting-off the Orca.

If you need more "space* for engines, I would also suggest to delete other "fictional" engines, i. e. the "E-88" and "DD 080-X".

I don't always get to the site to check on changes of scenarios which have been translated into English as would appreciate any future endeavors. You can move to the English version of Molse´s download section. If you select "Updates", a listing of recently added contents and translations...

A similar sheet is attached to the German translation of Edbangor´s "Guide to convert RRT3 maps into TM maps". Just to show which RRT3 player character conforms to which of TM.

This map has recently been translated into English language by Grandma Ruth. You can get it at Molse´s download section.

Have fun!

Thanks for this link, Hawk – as I am a fan of model railroad layouts, I like this Garden Railroad site. ;-) Regarding the European war history, Germany and France were at war in 1870/71 which was certainly supplied by the railroad, but there are no photographs of troop carriers (or, let´s say, I hav...

Only maps made specifically for Trainmaster will work right in Trainmaster. Maps for 1.05 or 1.06 will not work right in TM. This is because of the vast amount of changes made to 1.05 to create Trainmaster. There is a well written manual from Edbangor, containing a step-by-step description how to c...

suj, this sounds to me if you use a RRT3 copy with the 1.06 patch and you have now tried to install the RailYardStructures modification which was designed to work with patch level 1.05, as mentioned in the readme file. Although a 1.06 version of this mod doesn´t exist, there are some single structur...

Ray, El Moichi forgot the mention a real jewel in Molse's forum: 'Moorexpress' (in the European section) from the great lama! (Possibly you should wait till we - me? El Moichi? anybody else on our side of the ocean? :-) - has translated it to English.) Although I don´t really understand the correla...

The first few years I didn´t lay any track but bought some industries. Watch the AI players and first take over the company which seems to become the strongest. If you wait too long, the company will become too expensive. After that, try to merge with the other companies quickly. There´s another map...

So far, I didn´t know that Trainmaster is taught at Canadian schools.....

Be sorry for my language skills, but I´ll try to explain my strategy. I have been trying this map some 10 or 20 times over years, before I finally got my gold medal on expert level in the last autumn. This is a challenging map, and you have to be very cautious especially handling your company debts....

As Ray has pointed out, Srbija-Crna Gora is a challenging scenario. The author is called Momo and I haven´t seen any other maps from him, which is a pity because this map is a pretty good one. The map has an additional "immediate gold medal" event. This medal will be awarded if you haul 50...
