Hi, having gotten a little fed up with RW's crashing pretty much every excursion I decided to see if I could get OpenBVE to work on my W7 Ultimate 32 bit version? And I was pleasantly surprised that it does! So I have been having uninterrupted fun and glee on my favourite route NWM 2011 :D Are there any more of a similar quality out there and could I have some recommendations please? Also does anyone know if a Class 312/4 has been made for OpenBVE? :-?

The Birmingham Cross-City South is of a similar quality. You can find it here:

There's no class 312, as far as I know.

Check out Eazypeazy's routes, particularly the Tyne Valley and northern ECML. There's also a Lincolnshire route which is quite well put together. Don't forget the tube routes (they're a riot with the Class 37 or Class 50) and there's a few interesting overseas routes (also a riot with the 37 or 50).

Hi Vern, thanks, how did you slip that post in before mine? Anywho thanks for the tips, I have been downloading shed loads of rolling stock, anyone know who is developing the 304 emu? Looked at a vid and it looks cool. :)

Hi,

The Northern Line for OpenBVE is, in my view, one of the benchmark routes.
Even if you're not much into London Underground, I'd still recommend giving it a go.
Here's the link - http://www.trainsimcentral.co.uk/northern.htm
From the characteristic bounce of the train at high speed, to the lighting effect in the transistion from tunnel to station, there are lots of interesting features in this route. All I can say, is that there has been some serious attention to detail :)

Regards

Dave
