I got it working DrJimi. It was because I had simple controls on...   Keep up the great work!  |

New demo video of the D78 Refurb. It's about 8 mins long and will play as a 320 size Flash video. Even at this small size, you should be able to see (and hear) most of the effects.  |

No, I mean in the night shots, it seems very dark, and I was wondering if the carriage lights would be on, shining out into the night sky!?  |

The passenger saloon is lit (as is the passenger view of same), but there is no way in MSTS to have that illuminate anything outside the train. The only item on the train that illuminates the 'world' around it is the headlight. Regarding the oblique reference to the cab doors pilot light, yes there is one. Release of the D78 Refurb will be before 10/12 Watch for announcements on here and on UKTS. Release of the route (in an unfinished state) will be later in the year. I'll be putting out a small update to the 73TS trains in a day or so that improves AI train operation and an update to add automatic night cabs (support for MSTS BIN V1.6). |

OK, thanks for clearing that up!  Looking forward to both the train and route, but later this year for the route, how will I be able to hold my excitement!  |

The fishplate clicking sure sounds sinister, as well as the motoring!

What in particular are you working on? Do you mean releasing v1.1 trains, or Utilities to help us with activities and stuff P.S. I tried the new cockfosters activity on UKTS, and the interior of the carriages dissapeared. can u shed any light on this? |

I am releasing an update to the trains, as I noted. It will likely be a V1.1. Part of that update will be new AI-specific consists and revised ENG files that reduces the resource demand on the sim, so it runs more efficiently.
I'm not familiar with that activity, so I assume it runs on the Picc Line V1. Which train - 73TS Refurb? By "the interior of the carriages disappeared" do you mean you were in the passenger view and something odd happend? Tell me exactly what you were doing, what happened, etc. and I'll try to reason it out. Also, let me know your MSTS detail settings. I'm not aware of any graphics attributes that would cause a problem, but I'll try to help.

I'm not aware of any graphics attributes that would cause a problem, but I'll try to help. It is UKTS ID:15721. It loads alright, but when i started at Cockfosters, the car interiors had dissapeared, not just for my train, but for the other AIs aswell(73ts Refurb, 73ts and D78). And yes, it was for the David Forest Picc like UKTS ID:6841. Can you check it out please? Thanks P.S. I checked the passenger view, and the whole carriage behind me had gone, but it was there on exterior view, and the interior of the 1st carriage dissapeared when i went on the Head out of the window view. |

Sorry, I can't replicate the problem on my system. My guess is there's an Alpha channel sorting issue going on that may be releated to your graphics card, or maybe you don't have the MSTS detail sliders turned up enough.
