Re: OpenBVE version 1.2
"You have to install half a dozen file sets and libraries, which partially, from the descriptions, deeply pollute one's system directories and registries. Nothing what I consider as easy. I tried the original BVE a few times, and it always ended in a complete chaos with corrupted graphics, if at all...
