Just posted this review on the Steam site, hopefully (!) something will happen(?):
Quote
I like this DLC. It has good scenery and plenty of potential for scenarios. It has a good length of main line (mostly single) and lots of sidings and spurs at each end and a few on the main. It could have been even better if all of the sidings and spurs at Monroe (West of Monroe North yard) were labelled with markers, similarly those to the North East of Alexandria yard. I can put in markers myself but I don't know what the industries/businesses are and the markers would be unique only to me. These unfinished parts do detract from the DLC as it appears unfinished and rushed into the market. Any chance of an update fairly soon? The rolling stock is all "as before" but i knew this before buying and is fine for a newbie who will need it although the SW10 seems to get around the whole US! The other thing I noticed (when flying around) was that some buildings are there when the cursor is on them and not there otherwise. This should have been found in testing. All in all a good DLC that could easily have been a STAR DLC. Still recommended.

Thats because you don't have your Detail Level slider on max. Those buildings are meant to disappear on low spec computers to reduce the GPU workload.

Tried it at the highest setting and there are still “ghost” buildings and even an excavator. I have had this when route building and have had to delete the object and then replace (with same) and then check by exiting and returning. If it’s there when I have returned usually it stays visible. Worth a try though, thanks again.

Anyone know where I can get some more Mopac locos? I have downloaded the GP 38-2 and GP15-1 from the library but they had a heck of a lot of GP and SD50s, SD40-2s and even C36-7 s plus U boats and the dash 7s.

When you are in EDIT mode, Detail Level is controlled by the slider in the lower left of the editor.

Three versions of the MoPac SD40-2's are coming out in the upcoming 'fallen flags' pack from Searchlight Simulations.

For about a hundred years or so that I have been playing with TS I have always taken pictures using the camera button on the F4 HUD. This new route seems to not work using that method. Has anyone else had this experience and better yet any idea how to fix this? I checked another route and it still works there.
