Donner Pass

Actually I have the Britkits couplers installed but it kills the fun.

It's the day before release and there is nothing on Facebook. I don't think the page has been updated since Monday. Are they really that busy?

[BNSFdude]

A lot of people are presumably on Holiday already is my guess. Otherwise, I know the Dev team associated with the Enhancement deserve a pint. I hope all goes well with the steam release.

Yup hope they release it soon it's a busy Holiday yah know just be Patient.

I don't know why this keeps coming up and coming up when the installation of the Brit Kit couplers gets rid of all that unrealistic stretching.

Maybe because people kinda expect a company of 30+ employees to be able to fix their own program and not depend on some 3rd party guy (with textures edited by our own PapaXpress) to come up with a solution....that's a mere 231k download. I downloaded it last night for the first time and love it. The air hoses are a nice welcome attention to detail that was lacking before.

I looked at it's READ ME file and it's dated 09-26-2011 as is PapaXpress's texture file for it. BUT... the actual fix was made around 01-02-2011 according to the file dates. So apparently britkits figured it out almost 2 YEARS AGO and the guys that made the train sim in the first place STILL haven't figured it out. That's just plain embarrassing!!

Reminds me of the old classic "How many <fill in the blank> does it take to screw a light bulb in?" joke. So how many people does it take to fix a coupler in TS2013? It requires one to fix the coupler, one to make it's textures better as a bonus...and the requirement they DON"T work for RSC.

But enough on that issue. Looking forward to something RSC DID WRONG, but MADE RIGHT. The Donner Pass enhancement. Like I said before, I'm gonna put my old laptop and new laptop together so I can play the old route and the new updated route side by side to compare all the changes. Looks like it's gonna be a winner! They deserve praise for this! For the couplers.....well... not so much.

It is indeed interesting about the couplers. Only the folks at the Death Star can explain that one.

Anyone want to guess the release time? I'm hoping it's around 1-2PM Eastern.

RSC on Facebook:

It's coming!

Well, I expected more than that on release morning. That'll do, I suppose!

Cant wait. Paying attention to the forums every so often to see what the word is about the upgrade/improvements.

There is a whole slew of new photos on the facebook page. Have a look, I think some of you will enjoy them.
