What tunnel loft interior does standedge tunnel use?
Since there are some amazing custom assets within this route, would I be able to use them in my freeware route projects?
I was playing on this route last night. I think I might do a Midland Pullman HST scenario for this one just for fun purposes if anything! ;). Love the route and I love the work you have done as well mate. I will do a Class 50 scenario for this one too!
I’ve got an issue with missing platforms at certain stations, 2 I know of are Man Victoria and Ashburys. I’m missing a load of signals as well. They show on the HUD but not in the world. I own paywares Man-Liv, MML, Settle-Carlisle and BR Blue Woodhead as well as all the UKTS packs. I’m also missing gantries and signals from the Victoria area as well.
Is there anything else I’m missing?
Sounds like you are missing the Just Trains Common Library.
I think I’ve found my new favourite route! Amazing mix of a newly updated cityscape of Manchester incorporating all the developments that happened between 2015-2020, as well as the stunning views of the Pennines through Saddleworth and Kirklees; the best part is how pretty much all my local areas on the eastside of GM are included!
Hello,
How did you make the 323 model? What software did you use?
The model was made with Blender, the textures were made with Affinity Photo.
Thanks for this fantastic route… so detailed. I can see you put a lot of effort into it.
Has the 323 been removed?
No, why do you say that?
I believe the 323 is AI-only so there’s no consist to allow you to drive it in quick-drive mode; you can access it in Scenario Editor
Hello, I have bought JT Newcastle to Edinburgh. Will all Common Library Assets appear Now?
Hello, I have JT common library that came with Totham and the Cornish Mainline. Do I need an updated common library, or will this one be alright?
The route will work, although you will probably be missing some assets.
Hello, I have downloaded JT Newcastle to Edinburgh will all assets appear now?
As far as I know the most up to date common library is supplied with the Midland Mainline. I suggest you download the route and see if anything is missing, you are most likely to be missing assets around Piccadilly.
If you also have the JT Chiltern Main Line. It will work fine with that as well mate.
Any possibility of extension to Manchester airport?
Also are you Ashley Balleymena on fb?
Hello, I have all requirements installed and my station buildings are invisible and my signals float. Please can someone advise me if I have installed this incorrectly.. Thanks
Do you have your scenery density turned all the way up? If you do, please tell me which stations are missing buildings so I can narrow down the issue.
Yes, my density is all the way up. I am mainly missing them at victoria huddersfield and stalybridge
Those stations all have custom buildings so it makes no sense that you would be missing them. I guess you should try reinstalling the route, but I have no idea what the issue is.
I have just tried reinstalling and station buildings are still missing
Please can you confirm you have the folder RailWorks\Assets\PenninePacer present in your installation, as well as it’s size.
Great route! Are there any plans to extend this route to Manchester Airport?
There are currently no plans for any extensions to this route.
Given you have no plans to expand this route, can I work on extensions myself? This is an excellent basis to add stuff like the Caldervale Line, Manchester Airport, Rose Hill Marple, Glossop & Hadfield, etc.
Yeah, Its a Pity that there is no further plans.
Those Other places, would be great to have, Now that we have a drivable 323. And the fact that a Northern reskin for it, has popped up on here.
Its a missed opportunity, You should do it. I don’t think creating new extended route tiles, and the result new tracks.bin, from a cloned route etc, that you copy over and drop in place to extend the route would hurt.
I’m awaiting PenninePacer’s permission first just to be safe.
Can i make a personal edit of the route by adding hidden yards at each end so i can simulate a full day without needing portals? and add ahem DTG Trainspotting Mode for personal use also?
You can do whatever you like for personal use.
