Thanks for the update. The route looks spectacular!

Hello everyone, I'm still alive! Due to recent unfortunate circumstances (computer's broken), continued work on the project is temporarily on hold for the foreseeable future.

Pulling up the route map view around Chalender crossover (MP 368) causes the game to crash for some unknown reason. If anyone happens to have a solution, please make it known![/b]

Visual reference of Chalender, looking east. No clue why this tile is giving the map view problems.

After 2 years, since that post, I fixed the problem :))

That is a great news.

I am currently finishing the enhancements for the three native locos, which are still running in the modern AZD, especially the Dash 8 and the SD40-2 (not much the F45)). Not everything can be achieved, but the results are pretty good compared with the native ones, considering the state of these locos the way they were released.

Fey96 is a hard cookie to reach out. Is there someone that can reach out to him and see if either I can send him the fix and he can re-upload it or if I re-upload it on his behalf on TSC. This route is too good to be left in the dark for so long.

[Boss1]

Did he ever release his Modernized AZ Divide route?

[MickyMike24]

It’s been taken down ever since his inactivity 2-3 years ago. He redacted a lot of his stuff and he’s hard to reach out

[Boss1]

Okay, thanks.

[MickyMike24]

After failed attempts to reach out. I’m genuinely debating on Reposting this on TSC. Let’s see what controversy starts after 3 years this route went quiet

I'm not dead!! This project is very much still in development. Life gets in the way; I spent a year and a half living in Upstate New York with little time to focus on the route, yadda yadda, you know how it goes...

Since my last post, the line now currently runs from West Crookton to Winslow, then continues another 50 miles east to Adamana on the Gallup Subdivision - adding a little over 100 miles of new mainline to the original map. The route is much closer to being in a releasable state, though I'm still working to polish many areas and create a handful of new custom assets unique to the region. Being home for the holidays recently has allowed me to pick up the project again and finish a considerable amount of work!

Apache Railway interchange at Holbrook, AZ


Eastbound foamer consist near Double A


Westbound grain train on the S curve at Eagle Nest


Amtrak #3 wraps up the nightly stop in Flagstaff


A couple of custom roadsigns along I-40


RW Enhancer and AP's Cloud/Weather Enhancement have been doing a lot of heavy lifting to make things really pop. Very impressive stuff.







Ideally, I'd like to have the first public release around next March in time for the 5-year release anniversary (this map is in a slow cooker). But don't quote me on that. This project is my personal GTA 6; delays will continue until morale improves.

Very impressive, excellent work!
