For future reference, typing a forum post in all capitols is not considered good forum etiquette. Typing in all capitols is considered shouting, and not viewer friendly.

Hi

Welcome to these forums.

Another tip. If you expect your posts to be read, take the time to add some punctuation and also do a bit of proof reading. The way your post was "written" makes me wonder if I really want to spend time attempting to decode what you might be asking or saying.

Let me make that easier to read/understand.
"Hello, can someone help me? I have a Toshiba laptop and am running Windows 7 with Train Simulator 2012. I downloaded the NEC and I can't use the outside view or easy (simple) controls. At times on other routes/scenarios the train will not appear. Can someone please assist me so I can experience the full gameplay of TS 2012?"

I read it fine thru the shouting.

First, not many laptops will run Railworks. Did it ever run, or is it just NEC that is giving the problem? NEC will bring most every PC to it's knees, performance wise, even the most high end desktop PC, let alone a laptop.

Not every route or locomotive will let you use Simple controls, so you should just get used to using Expert controls, they work with everything. If you are still learning to drive in RW, do the Tutorials. They will help a lot.

Not all locomotives will appear in all the routes. This is the same in real life, and RW tries their best to copy real life. Don't expect a Denver & Rio Grande on the NEC. Unless you use the editing tools and put one there.

Best advice? Take it easy, take it slow. Be patient, you may have to run a scenario 3 or 4 times to get it right. Then all the sudden, it will seem easier. practice with braking and accelleration. It takes time.

It's not a game, it's a simulator. Now have fun!
