Update: Laptops good for running RW

Hi I know there are many references to laptops & RW, I've read a lot of them, but my quest is to find a laptop which will run RW satisfactorily which isn't horrendously expensive. I have adequate desktop machines but I'm not always at home when time hangs heavy on my hands and I would like to do som...

Re: Laptops running Railworks?

Thanks for the replies.
I concluded in the end that buying a capable laptop just to be able to run RW while away from home was liable to cause some domestic friction.
Everything else I need to do while away runs OK on my netbook!

Thanks again.

Laptops running Railworks?

Hi
I couldn't find a thread on this - apologies if there is one!

What lower cost laptops have been used to run Railworks successfully?

Re: General

Hi I've installed Firefox and set it as the default browser but that hasn't made any difference. Its now Wednesday and I'm still getting the 'game not available at this time message'. If this was a UK company I'd be contacting Trading Standards before long. They've taken the money and delivered noth...

Re: General

I'm having problems and I'm running IE8 on Vista.
All day yesterday and today I'm getting a notice from Steam saying Railworks is not currently available please try later. :cry:

Is there a diagnostic for this?

Re: S&D Modernisation (Fictional) by myself!

Hi bigvern I strongly suspect you are right, but I'm not qualified to make the case for a programming error, being neither a mechanical nor a software engineer. From the discussions elswhere it would seem that the RailSimulator people need to look again at their assumtions about brake performance an...

Re: S&D Modernisation (Fictional) by myself!

Being an S&DJR fan and wondering what it would be like to run more modern stock I tried a 47 with 9 Mk1 coaches from Evercreech to Bath. I discovered the hard way that the brakes are not good enough, it being a very close run thing to stop in Radstock. But the real shock was the descent into Bath. C...

Re: Modifying an existing sim.

It is possible to make a duplicate of an existing route and edit it and any scenarios separately, you should of done some research before jumping in head first :wink:. Please tell me how to make a duplicate of an existing route - the methods I have tried so far don't work. :-( (The method may be bu...

That's a very interesting approach Coltrane.

Is there any chance of having an illustrated tutorial on the method to elaborate on your very concise description?
