I'm back

[Mark]

Hi guys. It's been a while since I have been around but other things have taken priority in my life recently, many things where family related and caused a lot of upset ( of which I won't get into ), work related (silly hour shifts , the less that is spoken of the better lol ). For this I apologise, but since my last visit which seems like an era ago already I have managed to find myself some more routes to play around with. Trying to figure out what the most stable is for me to run on my laptop ( I know laptops are not the best option for games but thats all I have ) I have found that the E-G route , N-Y and N-Y Modern , Port Road and another few that escape me just now are my best choices, so for that reason I am about to begin work on scenarios for these routes. I may release them as single scenarios , or will zip them up and make it a collection before submitting to the site. Hopefully it wont be too long before I get them on the go (if anyone has tried my scenarios from elsewhere for the G.A.R.L route can you let others know if they are worthwhile please, user name elsewhere is usually d0dg3, I would appreciate it ) . I may even have a go at a few others for the G.A.R.L route if the interest is there. No point in spending hours doing something if there is no call for it really.
So before I rattle on anymore I am going to end it there and say goodbye for now. Time to go work on scenario's.

What route should I start on. Port Road, E-G or N-Y/modern ??

Ideas people please .

Cheers Mark

E-G please!

Consider it done . I will take a few days to get one up to scratch on this route, I have a load of ideas that I can peice together, it's just seeing if Railworks will play fair ( you know how that dispatcher likes to have a hissy fit every so often ). Hopefully have the first one done and loaded here ( with Hawks permission obviously ) with an estimated arrival time of January 7th ( gives me a good 10 days to get it all working the way I would like it ) depending on how much time I get using the sim it may be done sooner.

Can I ask one more thing please? Ideally I would like to have someone else try out scenarios before I release them so if anyone is willing to be a tester let me know.

cheers
Mark

Mark, I'll gladly try some out for you!

[Mark]

thanks John . give me a few days to rattle one or two possible scenarios together and I will get the file to you . hopefully they dont disappoint

[Mark]

John just to let you know that I have a scenario up and running, all that I need to do now is add more AI services and it should be good to be tested. Hope you don't mind a 2 hour scenario . Just now I have 5 AI services, but they are all at one location, I will be adding more and spacing them out over the next 2-3 days and always trying it out with each new service added, hoping to make this as challenging and exciting to do as I possibly can.

Update time.

Sorry to anyone who is actually waiting for my scenario to be completed (especially John McKenzie who is testing it for me ).
Unfortunately due to other commitments in my life I have not been around the computer much, and have had even less time to spend with RWs.
The good news is I plan to have it all finalised either sometime today or tomorrow morning at the very latest (waiting on RW to load as I type this). I don't have much more to add to it, but want to make it as testing as I possibly can with the route in use so it is going to be A.I heavy when it is finalised. Just tweaking a couple of things that I have done and we are good to go.


Regards
Mark

I spoke to soon.
After my last post I started recieving the dreaded SBHH after 10 minutes of running.
So it is back to the old drawing board so to speak. I still have a basic copy of it, so I might have to load that and start editing again and watch what I am doing this time.
I managed to get close to 20 A.I on the go, that is the worst part of it. I wont be able to get near that again , but I will see what I can do
