Reno ReTrac

[DaveDewhurst]

Hi,
Ive been enjoying the updated Donner Pass and decided to add some more buildings to Reno.
It was only then I realised that the Reno of today is very different (TBH I didnt even realise that the RW Donner Pass was set in the 90's )
"I can do that", I thought


Looking towards Sparks up the slope


Reno Station (still needs bits) looking west


Under the carpark looking east

Still a lot to do, need to hide all the backfill behind the concrete.

I'm tring to limit myself to only use DP assets as much as possible so some artistic license is needed
(I'll keep it as real as possible though)

Kool when do you think you can upload it,Also will this be for the new updated one?,Or will it be another version of it the Donner Pass?

[DaveDewhurst]

Its a clone of the RSC version so immune from verifying.

Dave

[UPSD70ACe]

Hope you can upload soon looks great.

[UPSD70ACe]

I assume your just doing the Reno Area correct?So this will be another stand alone Route?Of the Donner Pass but in the 1990s era with the Reno Train Trench?

[DaveDewhurst]

I'll see how it goes,

I was intending to just improve Reno but as its a clone theres nothing to stop me carrying on.

Ya need to get permission from RSC if they let you upload it.

[NDORFN]

This is awesome! How is it illegal to release it? It's a simple modification. The advertising of Railworks stipulate that we can create our own content. If RSC denied someone the right to release a modification then regardless of what audacious crap they write in thier terms and condition, they would be depriving a paying customer of the right to utilise their program. They wouldn't have a chance.

[DaveDewhurst]

It would be a modification to an existing route, only bin files would be included meaning the end user would have to own the original Donner Pass for it to work.
No different than releasing a new engine blueprint or reskin and requiring the end user to have the original loco already.

Yah looking forward too running this sooon,What will the name of the Route be Dave when you upload it?

[NDORFN]

If he can find a way to upload the modification without supplying any RSC created content then it's legal.

That's easy. All you're doing is uploading .bin files telling the game where to place everything, not the actual content. In this case it would either have to be a completely seperate route from the default Donner or a mod to the scenery and track .bins with a big fat warning stating that it will modify the original route and use at your risk etc... It's effectively nothing more than in legal terms than a repaint.

[UPSD70ACe]

Ya so it would be kool to run this Route to its current version soon.Thanks for working on that Dave I would have done that for myself,But know nothing on how what to.Do to make the Trench I tried that in MSTS once.Screwed up my Route.

it is possible, when you go to package a route by default it will not include protected assets such as the payware files for donner pass, all it will include are the files that tell your computer where to put the stuff only if you have it.
