An opportunity for the smarty-pants! :D
OK then. I've admitted that I'm not exactly "omniscient" with the fineries of RW. I've tried creating a Route today but it all went wrong. I've been told you have resources and advice here. Link 'em if you'd be so kind :D I have the creativity to build a decent route, I want to build a decent route....

Re: The major flaw of RW, as I see it.
Until that happens, the only free content we get are from creators who don't care about AI traffic, or stubborn bullheaded idiots like me who continue to hang on in the hope that someday it will be fixed.
Amen maybe!

Re: The major flaw of RW, as I see it.
With a community that is admittedly thin on the ground, saying "I want stuff, but I'm not willing to offer any effort myself" is just a bad idea. Saying nothing is more likely to get you what you want, if you can keep your impatience in check due to the demotivational nature of it. Sorry if that's ...

Re: The major flaw of RW, as I see it.
"and apart from that there are some excellent models available in the download library, made by members of the community." These are, currently, rather limited. Of the 186 files available for RW exclusively most are fixes and re-skins. Again, I suggest that I bought the game too soon. Although I ad...

Re: The major flaw of RW, as I see it.
OK, I should probably clarify, I'm not a troll. Or at least, that's not how I mean to come across! :lol: I admit that I bought the game without really checking up on its reliability, content or adaptability. But I've bought plenty of games over the years that have met or exceeded my expectations - I...

Re: The major flaw of RW, as I see it.
I agree with the business-end ideals. Of course Kuju staff were facing problems - why else would they realistically have plumped for Steam publishing? My problem is that - whereas I would be happy to buy well realised new Routes - I'm not quite so sure that I want to fork £10-20 for a single locomot...

Re: The major flaw of RW, as I see it.
And it's about as user-friendly as self harm and twice as depressing. There does seem to be a very big problem with people who've produced things for MSTS and hate the fact that RS/RW is different. I'm afraid I'm going to site myself as an example here.. I've never produced anything for MSTS. In th...

Re: The major flaw of RW, as I see it.
I never bought RS, so I can't really comment on it - but by all accounts the similarities are many. Whilst there were no doubt improvements built into RW - I feel that both could benefit from inter-compatibility. There are some good free add-ons for RS here on UKTS. If I could make use of them in RW...

Re: The major flaw of RW, as I see it.
I just feel like I spent a lot on something 'incomplete'. And that I'd have to spend more to add stuff to it to make it better. Ben Laws' Class 158, for example. That's DLC now. I remember downloading a heap of Ben Laws models for free [/b] on MSTS. And the store won't do refunds on opened games! :c...

Re: :x Scenario Editing WILL NOT WORK
Thanks for that. Actually, I found a fix on another thread about 20 seconds after posting that first message :lol: I managed to change some of the time and weather attributes and had the delight of driving a dark early morning run in snow without headlights :roll: I'm wondering whether the release o...

The major flaw of RW, as I see it.
MSTS had a hell of a glitchy, complex Route Editor. It had an Activity Editor that needed some getting used to. And just like RW, you'd need a dedicated modeller to create your own rolling stock. But see, here's where I get just a lickle bit cranky... As difficult as it was to mod MSTS yourself, you...

:x Scenario Editing WILL NOT WORK
I followed the instructions in the manual. I clicked on 'Routes', picked one at random (Oxford to Paddington), clicked on 'Scenarios' and was confronted with three options: 'Edit' '(Something I couldn't make out)' 'Play'. So far, so supported-in-the-manual. Except, and dammit if I shouldn't have exp...
