I am already running msts Bin.
Shrewsbury is no problem, just no ground textures for about 4 miles in Owestry.

Regards
Ken

It's 10.am in a wet Peterborough in the UK, and the postman has just dropped the mail through the letter box.

I now have Cambrian 2 so will now have a bash at down loading it will let you know how things go later, looking forward to running a Duke Dog down the line.

Mine's arrived too.

3D Train Stuff even redirected the delivery to my work address and it only took 4 days to arrive. :o

Excellent service. I might even give it a run here at work. :lol:

Out of interest, when did you order the copies you have received? I ordered on July 28, payment was taken the next day and I've heard nothing since then.

Lots of steam and early diesels from 1959 to 1963.

OK - I jumped in too soon. Cambrian 2 has just dropped through my letterbox, so I'll get installing - and playing.

Those of you who are able, could you please set up an activity or use Explore Mode from Shrewsbury to Welshpool (there are no activities for this area yet), drive to Welshpool and see if you can pass MP 3.0, MSTS is stalling adjacent to the Distant on the opposite track on the right-hand bend approaching that MP and with an indicated FPS of 57. I've tried lowering the sliders all to no avail. I am about to load the route on my spare computer, one with a much lower spec to see if it occurs on that one.

John, I just tried running from Shrewsbury to Welshpool in Explore Mode and indeed all was not well. At milepost three I very suddenly lost all graphics and was presented with a totally black screen though the sound continues normally.

It was necessary to reset the PC as I couldn't recover from the crash. So far, six years on into MSTS, I have never encountered this particular set of circumstances at all. Could it be a graphics card/driver issue? It will be interesting to see what others report.

Unfortunately no joy on the second computer either. Both were running under XP SP2, so I have now installed the route under Vista on my dual-boot computer, exactly the same.

Hi John, Just had a go at the run from Shrewsbury to Welshpool and we seem to have the White out problem and even a save and reload did not solve it . I am running the very latest Bin Patch.I was running in explore mode in Trainstore with a FPS of 22 average :(

Received mine this morning, no problems except for lack of textures approaching Oswestry. Had a look in RE and it just locks up.
