Service Pack 1

No, TS2012 does need SP1. I can't really quantify it, but Barstow/ San Bernadino does look and run a lot better. I haven't tried Ox/ Pad yet but they say the improvement there is also nice.

When freshly installing TS2012, there is no upgrade downloaded. I assume the newest code for TS2012 has been updated to include the tweaks needed for SP1.

[Machinist]

I guess that means there is no way to confirm SP1 has been installed ?

Yep... that's a shame, I never saw that in my life! A such large update like this and same version nember!

Yep again... if you (say) delete or rename \railworks folder and start a verify of game cache, you'll get a SP1 installation, with same version number though. The only way to be sure is going to BSB and visually check...

I am lost, why would I rename the railworks folder ?

I did not delete the railworks folder, I uninstalled all things TS2012 / Steam related

I have no idea what the route you mentioned looked before, so it is not a sure method for me at all.

I just hope people to do a good job so when there is no download aft er a fresh install from steam I assume the SP1 is included in the newest TS2012 code. Think that would make the mist sense as well.

Ah, ok, thanks, that is not how I did a clean install though.

When I did a clean install I:
Unintalled Steam, uninstalled TS2012, checked for left behind directories (none), ran a system cleaner, rebooted, ran system cleaner, installed Steam, installed TS2012.

Ah OK, you did the home work very well, step by step (all steps, BTW), as manuals recommend... weren't needed such steps!

Maybe one day, when I will start modding like you do, I will use your way to create multiple fresh installs. Very handy and smart way of doing it.

SP-1 didn't change the version number, is still the same since couple months ago:
v11.7.b

So do I have the SP-1 Pack installed how do I know if it is?

That's the annoying part of update... To know if it is updated, only playing one scenario (for example on BSB - Cajon route) and see if the changes are there, especially clouds moving in the sky and a lot of new lighted scenery objects (streets, roadways, bridges, buildings etc.).

BTW new Cajon is awesome now, I have re-rated it in the Routes Forum, I'm enjoying even more to play BSB now, especially at night.

Thank you RSC's team!

Did you read Machinist's reply?

You say you have V-7.1a. He says the latest version is 11.7b.

It sounds to me like you are a few versions behind.

How do I get the latest update for TS12?
