VRC's store still closed? Or reopened for USA customers only? It is not only licensing issues, but also EU tax rules. Stupid bureaucrats **!!bang!!**

What about an Undec including .psd templates?

The US store is the only one that is open. I am working with a European distributor to try to get the VRC products sold outside the US, but things are not quite set up yet.

If there are any problems with the Store, I will be watching all day long. Operators are standing by!

Finally, exterior PSD's are included in the Package for those who wish to repaint.

I actually can't get on the vrc website for some reason, forever loading. **!!bang!!**

Edit: works now but can't get the engines because the link got used once and it failed for some reason. !*don-know!*

That's good to hear. DTM is already available through Trains and Drivers.

Before I am making any decision wether to wait for a purchase, I'll wait for player reports on how these U-boats compare to the latest from DTG.

US purchases are working fine. I have mine D/Led already taking advantage of Jerry's generous opening day sale.

I would not say the sounds are good enough to be a selling point, but the majority of them were recorded from U30C #5383 at the Illinois Rail Museum.

I would say that they are the best 7FDL16 sounds currently in game. Might be a selling point for some people.

Jerry,

I wonder if they could be having the same problem I have been having? Sounds suspiciously similar.

It's isolated. There have only been two issues today out of all the purchases. I'm not sure if it's traffic, or the net speed on the end-user side is causing the download to time out. Either way, i'll get the file through someway! BTW, I haven't forgotten yours. I've got to find time to squeeze in a the upload to another area of the server.
