****Trainmaster 1.0****

[Blackhawk]

I placed it by event. And I guess it did remain there for awhile before disappearing I can't remember the exact amount of time but it was likely between 20-25 years, and the majority of the bio-farms remained. I was just checking to make sure that was supposed to happen as I don't remember previously seeing a bio-farm disappear. As usual thanks for the insight.

I installed the Trainmaster but after a few days I removed because in my opinion at this thime the old one with the coast to coast expansion, the 1.06 patch and some downloaded new mps is a better variant... I m waiting couriously the finalization of the Trainmaster Campaigns... In the Trainmaster the economy is better than in the old one, but this is the only advantage is this moment.

Trainmaster is for people who have already played 1.05 and 1.06, it is not to replace either of those, but to offer an alternative with a greated degree of challenge, and more options for scenario writers. So removing it is your choice, but it was never meant to replace previous versions, it was always mean to be installed along side them.

As far as patching goes, any timetable on 1.2? Or any document detailing what's involved (so I don't have to pester the makers with questions about that :) )?

[Hawk]

Just curious Viking, did you try any of the 8 maps found in the TM Map Archive?

[nedfumpkin]

Patch 1.2 is going to have a new tavern file where there isn't as much profit from gambling in the 1900s, also, fixed the electronics cargo to be available in 1890.

I'm just giving Blackhawk some time to ry it out, so in a few days.

In the meantime, I am just about finished an FP7 for CP Rail, and I'm working on the stainless steel Budd Cars to go with it. This will be a specialty pack in the from 1950 onwards, this pack will offer a passenger train called The Canadian which is still running today.

After that, I am almost finished the ST-Lawrence & Champlain, Grand Trunk, CNR, VIA Express Car set. That will become the default TM set in the English MSI installtion.

That will become the default TM set in the English MSI installtion.

Will these be available separately, other than in the MSI?

! I didn't realize it was so imminent .

[nedfumpkin]

Yes, Express Car sets will all be available for download individually, this is just the set that will come with the Enlgish version of TM, the German version is getting, well, the German cars.

Moggie...basically I am just fixing a couple of things while I work towards a version 2....which is just fixing all the things that are broken or need some adjustment. There isn't any reall game effects other than the locomotives being available until the end.

This allows for something like the CP specialty train I am doing right now.

[Hawk]

One more question: Will the manual install files for V-2 also be available?

[nedfumpkin]

No, just the msi, since it completely simplifies everything.

[nedfumpkin]

oh...and....

[Hawk]

No, just the msi, since it completely simplifies everything.

Ah! That sucks. I've never been a fan of MSI.

Oh well! I still have 1.05 and 1.06 to play.

[nedfumpkin]

If you want zipped copies, I can stall make them. So now worries there.

[Hawk]

I prefer the manual way to install it; copy/paste, but I wouldn't want to ask anything extra from you. Especially since I don't get the time to play as much as I'd like anymore.
