A new hungarian (again !) route : the ZL1
Posted: Wed Apr 20, 2005 2:39 pm
Hi all,
Hardly I had the time to make a topic with the Jaszkiser-Nagybereg route that a new Hungarian route, the ZL1 was released.
You can get it from http://www.z-line.hu/letoltes.php
The route is brillant too, but there is a hitch :
The download "weighs" 789 MB in only one archive. I was obliged to downlad the route with my office's ADSL two nights ago and it seems the download required about 3 hours of connexion.
After installation the line needs 1,4 GB on your disk. Of course, you can use Route Riter to reduce the size. A french trainsimmer suggests the following tips :
a) compress the ACE files with Paul Gaussden's SAVETEX
b) delete the THM files included in the shape folder
c) delete the BK files in the Tiles and world folders
It seems too that there are no REF files, and I'm wondering it's important or no
The installation is easy but mind for the separate Global and Sound files to add in you main GLOBAL and Sound directories.
There are no activities, except one named explore which uses a "hotbox" consist which is not supplied. I renamed one my previous hungarian consist to avoid unexpected messages.
The route is fictious with electrified double track itineraries and unelectrified secondary branches. I could'nt measure the route but it seems slightly wider than the Jaszkiser-Nagybereg route. The scenery is as good as Jaszkiser'one with the use of original buildings as weel as the best among german, italian and french (from Roger Morot) production
Some shots hereafter

The wrecked 43-1078 engine can be found.here http://users.atw.hu/fc-21/letoltesek/MV ... 3-1078.exe
Notice I had some problems with hungarian stocks. Some engines are linked for cab and sounds to other engines which have a different name than the one required. I was unable too to run the superb EMU I downloaded from http://www.train-sim.hu/ . I'am convinced there is a bug in the cabview; Notice that self installer creates a "MAV_BDVmot_VMW" folder. You can dowload the same type of EMU (with a less brillant livery) from http://users.atw.hu/mstrainsim/request.php?36
The self installer creates a "MAV_BDVmot_001" folder. However you need a "MAV_BDVmot_014" to run this last engine. I found nowhere the 014 archive untill I realized that the "MAV_BDVmot_VMW"'s content matched to the 014. The folder ought to be renamed "MAV_BDVmot_014" !. Anyway, as there is a bug ... And I had several cases like this one
