Command line options

[Cardinal51]

Earlier today I successfully tested the -allowJump launch option. Jumped from cargo to pita passengers and back :)

Just looked into the launch option -nvperfhud

On the Nvidia website I read . . . NVPerfHUDis a powerful performance analysis tool that gives you unparalleled insight into how your application uses the GPU . . .

I assume the Nvidia software needs to be installed for that. I do not have that and that is probably why got this error message. It also seems the software is outdated and not available for modern Windows operating systems.

Fiddled with the -followaitrain start-up option this morning.

I am having intermittent results and also noticed that often I have to right click the screen first (when in external camera) in order for page-up/page-down to have an effect. But I certainly think this can be a very handy tool for creators and trouble shooters.

Just added about twenty additional parameters for the -SetLogFilters option.

Did not test them all, and have not planned that either, so do let me know when you thing some corrections / additions are needed.

In my old note from Reef it is written . . . . -SetFOV=XX - change XX to a numeric value I think 70 is game standard I use either 80 or 85 this is superseded somewhat by the in-game FOV slider but I still use it as this sets my default view and I can still adjust per cab view with the slider if needed

I just tried but see no difference , tried various values like 20 , 80 , 99 , 100 , 1000

Anyone has more insight in the option ?

This morning stumbled upon a brand new (to me) one. As far as I know not covered anywhere yet.

It is: -Currency

Too bad it is kind of a useless one :)

Makes the currency symbol disappear and lowers the price of all items in the store to nothing. Ofcourse that is just visual, probably because no currency has been set. I tried but was not able to set currency to a different one than my normal Euro. Things I tried was: -Currency=$ , -Currency="$" , -Currency=USD , -Currency="USD" , -Currency=EUR, -Currency=EURO , -Currency=1. But no result.

Why did you you post it back here again when it's totally off topic?

Command Line Options for Train Simulator

[Cardinal51]

Hi Buzz, it was gone, thought something went wrong, so I fixed it.

Is not off topic at all.

Is a weird, but true, command line option for Train Simulator Classic.

I turn over my king. I have no idea what you are talking about.

[Cardinal51]

That's ok.

But in case you feel the need to understand then just start reading at the beginning of this thread :-)

Updated the overview post ( viewtopic.php?f=6&t=11182&start=15#p277389 ) with good info from Pgdlrailworksl regarding --enable-backups

Useful when Route Building.
When Saving in the Route or Scenario Editors the game will create a date-named folder in Railworks\backup containing copies of the files it is about to overwrite.
Great to have about twice a year when it crashes during a Save and Tracks.bin is set to zero bytes. Just Drag and dropping the Tracks.bin copy has worked for me.
Apart from this I don't think worth keeping the backups.
Note: You must manually purge the Railworks\backup folder or it will fill your disk.

Below a screenshot showing the automatically generated Backup directories.

Just updated -nomemorybias and -MultiCore with PeterH his remarks.

Interesting about -MultiCore is that is seems to be still in the code but when testing it on my system (tried 32 Beta and 64 Beta) I did not see any effect whatsoever.

Also looked at -MLAA.

Although MLAA was followed up by FXAA It seems the option is still in the code. As far as I know this is not intended for Nvidia / Intel systems , so it would not make sense to test it on my system. I did test it nevertheless , but I noticed no effect whatsoever.
Perhaps someone with more knowledge and/or a proper AMD / Radeon system can test this option.

Today I look a bit more in to -FilterForDirectionality and -FilterForManualJcts,

Did do a short test run but did not notice any effect whatsoever. Will do a longer and more intensive test run tonight.

I did figure out that these two options should still be current and that they probably have to do with signaling, but that is about it.

Anyone have more insight or educated guesses ?
