I had trouble with turntable too until I learned to take it easy and get the engine centered correctly. It can be kind of tricky.

Gglad you got to finish the scenario. What did you do different?
FuzzyFace 18 Sep, 2014 @ 2:49pm 
Finnally able to complete # 2. You did a superb job. So far, I don't like 2015.
winston  [author] 17 Sep, 2014 @ 3:12am 
Maybe when 2015 comes out some of the bugs will be fixed.
FuzzyFace 15 Sep, 2014 @ 10:24am 
Did not help but thanks for trying. After I stop drop off my cars, reverse and stop at passing I can't operate the next switch and I derail. I think the problem must be with Train Simulator. I have a lot of problems that others don't have so I don't think it is your work.
winston  [author] 15 Sep, 2014 @ 2:02am 
Good luck after the update. I hope it fixes some of the issues.
FuzzyFace 12 Sep, 2014 @ 11:53am 
Tried changing the settings and just as I suspected it did not have any effect.

Dovetail bought MS Flight Simulator. They said the 1st thing they would do would be to fix the bugs in Flight Simulator. Wish they would fix the bugs in Train Simulator 1st.

Anyway, thanks for all you do.

FuzzyFace,
Hopefully TS2015 will fix most the problems some users are having. The more compilcated the scenario, the more room for errors from both the Creator and the player. Plus the simulator can put a strain on the computers resources. Try some different settings and search the forums. It's a never ending learning process.

Great job working on the Portland Terminal routes

I have cleaned the cache. All I accomplished was to delete all my previous completed runs.
winston  [author] 15 Aug, 2014 @ 4:30pm 
Try clearing the cache and verifying the files.

I can not enter PTC2 at step 7. The switches on the main game screen do not work, there are no switches on the 2D map and the HUD switches do not work. Any suggestions?
winston  [author] 7 May, 2014 @ 4:46am 
I try to make my scenarios complex so they stand out from the regular point A to B scenarios although I enjoy those kind also.
tompallen, I do appreciate good constructive comments. One of the problems with text messages, as with email, is that sometimes the tone or intent is not always taken the way it was meant to. Sorry if I offended you or anyone and thanks for giving my scenaios a go and commenting.

Had a wonderful time working this sweetly complex scenario, Winston! If someone asked what kind of activity I find so interesting in TS, I'd point-out a scenario like this one and say "There -- nice and complicated, but hugely enjoyable!"
Perhaps the nicest part of this one is knowing that there are four more to go. Hot damn!

Winston, I'm not "most people": I'm a scenario writer myself and like to send detailed reports to other scenario writers, as I hope other scenario writers will do to me, so that we can all learn from each other and make what we do that much better.
winston  [author] 1 Nov, 2013 @ 8:45am 
The low ploy train was an oversight on my part. Sorry I didn't catch that. The "yo-yo" trains are just to add some scenery as you're making your rounds. I didn't think most people would maind if they even noticed.
tompallen 1 Oct, 2013 @ 6:41pm 
Basically, a good switching scenario, but ... at least 3 AI trains (cleverly called "Service 1:, etc.) do nothing but yo-yo constantly and "Service 1" consists of low-poly cars, which are intended to be used at a distance, not in a train that passes the player up close ... the fueling instruction toward the end doesn't work, perhaps because the siding marker is too short: that's not the scenario writer's fault, of course, but if the instruction doesn't work, it should have been eliminated. I tried jockeying the engine around for 5 minutes before giving up: after devoting quite a bit of time to this scenario, I couldn't finish it. Finally, since very specific instructions are given for every maneuver, the "Hard" rating doesn't seem justified.
winston  [author] 28 Sep, 2013 @ 9:00pm 
You need to change your settings so the they will couple.
gbach55 14 Sep, 2013 @ 6:36am 
Again... get to PTC2 to pick up those UK rolling stock and they will NOT couple.... thumbs down.
winston  [author] 26 May, 2013 @ 8:54am 
Thank you.

Excellent scenario. No problems, but a very challenging. Keep them coming!
winston  [author] 29 Apr, 2013 @ 1:45pm 
Glad you had agood run.
Dremchief 28 Apr, 2013 @ 7:08pm 
Excellent scenario I had a great time thanks
winston  [author] 16 Mar, 2013 @ 7:02am 
Thank you Keith. Keep the those supplies coming to the Sports Complex.
keith.stroud.52 15 Mar, 2013 @ 11:15am 
No problems with this one winston thanks for all your efforts. On to part 3.
Regards, Keith.

michbret123,
The senario is challenging and you have to follow the instructions carefully. The ending is a bit different than the first version because I was having troulbe with the AI in the old version as you noted. I made acouple of changes and it now seems like everyone is able to play it without any trouble. Thjanks again for your help.
N1QGM 14 Feb, 2013 @ 9:45pm 
Just completed Part 2. Excellent scenario. Thanks for the good work. On to Parts 3, 4, and 5, and 6 when it becomes available. Nicely done.

michbret123 14 Feb, 2013 @ 12:41pm 
This new version works but is quite challenging. Quite different from the previous one in the end. It's imperative to read the message or to be clever since the task list is lacking several drop off, couple and switch operations.
winston  [author] 13 Feb, 2013 @ 3:25pm 
Here is the redone Part 2. I'm sorry for my error in the former version. I know how frustrating it is to play a senario for 60 minutes only to have an AI crash. Again my humble apologies.
I have no idea why the previous version broke but I had to do a complete rewrite. I think it's a little easrier but still requires paying close attention to the Task List and Dispatch.I've tested the new version 3 times thru with no problems.
Please let me know how it plays for you.
