I would like to praise your work on Loco since it has made it more fun experience to play and watch when you see a multi coloured train go past

Error: "Your Version is NEWER then what is on the server! You have Version 0.9.1, The latest Version is 0.0.0"

I assume that this is because it's the beta and you don't have any version on the server yet? And I just noticed, that should be "your version is newer than what is on the server...". Trivial, I know.

And I've also got the same problem I had last time with the buttons not showing up on the install screen. ie:
Image


And another thing I noticed, you've written "Burlinton" a few times on this screen. Again, a little trivial.

Just a question but, With the Burlington Set would there be a beta test senario for it to test it all out since most people won't use it unless there is a senario needing the set as the set items. If you do may i please have a copy to have a play with and see how well it goes

should I have said the latest up set?

Also, if you install the UP set second, It will erase the BN set.

You must have the "Latest" UP set installed first.

Hrmm the purpose of public beta's is to test for bugs and comments on the pack.

If no one is going to comment, I can go back to private beta's. Those are easier for me.

anyone, anyone, beuller?

@hammo

I can't explain the button thing. Ill have to install vista X64, by the fact it can figure out you have a newer then server version, it can see the same "temp folder" that the button graphics are located in.

OK, great pack, love the green color, also like the cars, but could you make the cars take plastics as well, also i think there was some clipping on one of the engines I can't remember.

PS. maybe the reason no one posted is that they are too busy using it (he he)

I thought i added plastics. thanks I'll take a look...

@Hammo do you have SP1 on your Vista64? part of the SP1 patch for x64 Vista broke SkinnedControls (AKA: Buttons) in .Net.

Microsoft broke their own program... again.

It looks like only X64 Vista SP1 is affected. Ill come up with a work around for you and let you know when it is ready.


Edit: fixed (I hope)... but man, I messed up a bunch of other stuff fixing it.

Vista x64 SP1. And your update did fix it. For the initial installer. The BN transfer utility is still missing the buttons though, but I guess that depends on a different folder?

In the burlington Set i would like to know if you have any thought of putting some flatbeds or tanker cars in any of the later sets since i noticed that the sets lack these and passanger sets for people that want to use the set for all types of rail transport. This is not a problem but an idea if you have thought about

Since these are Dekosoft sets, I am only putting Dekosoft Items in the Packs.

You are correct that there are some basic Lomo needs missing from the sets. I believe this was covered in one of the early posts in the thread.

There are no Tank cars, Flatbeds, or Livestock cars in any of the Dekosoft packs.. We just got paper cars with the BN set.. Perhaps I can supplement that further with some added cars, Maybe some Wisc central or other popular paper carrier to this pack, I can bounce it off Chip.

There are still some gondolas along the line with Scrap and Steel. Possibly another Boxcar style. but as a complete set, No, it will need to be supplemented from other sets unfortunatly... or not haul Liquids and cattle.

Perhaps you can pester Chip at Dekosoft to make some Tank cars... on second thought.. don't. he can read it here... :P

He is working on a new pack for Dekosoft (I hope that was not a secret) maybe there might be some new stuff in there. I'll ask.

There are some other Dekosoft-like Projects in the Pipe, those will increase the types of cars available. but they are way down the pipe.

Finally found some time for the BN pack. Installer worked fine, didn't catch any bugs with the set either. I Haven't played with the car industry though.
