Watched the videos and the developments in the last few months look really impressive.

Plus you had the good taste to use The Who on the SkyBox vid.

I am really looking forward to the next releas.

Great work guys.

regards,
Mike.

Superb, i must get MSTS re-installed for tomorrow.

Can i ask, is OR now able to route services properly now using MSTS Activity paths.

In the last release, i noticed i had to change some of the points\switches myself.

Even on pre-defined paths.

Many thanks,
Mike.

Mike,
Yes, the new build properly set switches for both the Player and AI train paths - unlike v128 which left switches in their default position. Certain AI trains will not spawn if there's an overlap between the Player and AI path since OR has not fully implemented Signals - thus certain kinds of single track and shared track passing isn't implemented. The AI Dispatcher uses "Dark Territory" or "Unsignaled" route logic at the present time.

Can't wait for the next upgrade.

I did have 2 tiles (terrtex) not load once, want to see if it happens on new version, msts loads the tiles normally. Will watch for it.
