...and the scenario

metalangel · Post by **metalangel** » 18 Nov 2004 00:41

Pretty nice (Loches is on it, I took a holiday there once and the food was amazing), would you do a version with the surrounding countries? Possibly even a little corner of the UK to run a ferry service to?

Good idea i will include the surrounding countries the next version, i will also place the right city at the right places.

You will be able to build the france->england undersea tunnel, too

Merci beaucoup, sleepless! C'est exactement qu-est que j'ai cherché!
Really, wonderful terrain, but how about a version for the 1990s or even later? That would be awesome.

Cheers,
Salut,
Niklas

Tres interesant, mais je voudrais le map un peu plus a midi pour incluir le tunel de Canfranc de connexion avec l'Espagne!!!

Sorry for my bad french, i wanted to say that it's very interesting, I'd like to have an slightly more extended version to the south, just to reproduce the Canfgranc Tunnel between France and Spain. Maybe I'll make an scenario of the Pyrinees within Saragossa, Barcelona, Bilbao, Bourdeauz and Toulouse as big cities in teh borders

Your french is not so bad

It's an interesting idea, but why not make a scenario with the whole spain? Including Portugal (i'm not sure of this country name spelling in english).

I've finally been able to play this map (I altered it slightly to include a few new vehicles, pushed the start date back to 1946 and removed the AI) and it's lovely... well done!

I notice there's no Avignon, I'll have to run the TGV straight to Marseilles then, I guess

Now that I think about it, I should have enabled a few UK trains as well for the little piece of the South you included.

I didn't know that the tgv to Marseille run through Avignon, in fact the french tgv is really expensive (i think is as expensive as plane), i haven't tried it yet.

You should post the new version of this scenario somewhere, i would be glad to try it.

Sleepless, some things I need to say/ask.

First: Very nice map you made, gonna use it for my high speed rail network.

Second: Are there more French railroad vehicles you know off then only the standard locomotion?

metalangel · Post by **metalangel** » 10 Feb 2005 13:32

I did not add Avignon to the map, it was just something I noticed. There isn't really room for it down there anyway.

Thanks

About the trains, i know some:

This train is the old "RER", it is well knew by the the people of paris, it travel through paris to the suburbs, check this link for more pictures http://www.railfaneurope.net/pix/fr/ele ... 0/pix.html

Look at this map to see the main RER lines in the paris region http://www.polytechnique.fr/eleves/bine ... de/RER.htm

And this is the new model of the "RER".

Now introducing the TER it means "Regional express transport", this kind of train is only used in the cities outside paris "Clemont-ferrand" for example. Notice that you can't add wagons to this train.

And this is the "Corail" train this train travel across the whole france.
Look at this link to see more http://www.photosdetrains.net/photos.ph ... =40&last=1

Sorry for the pictures size.

May you can't add unmotorised wagons behind it, because they don't exsist.
But i see a normal Scharffenberg coupling on the front so they can couple with eachother.

You're right, in fact each time i took this train, it was without unmotorised wagons. I wonder why they put a coupling system on it.

I looked into the editor, but i don't know how to export the editor version of the map, can you explain me how to do?

Shifty Powers · Post by **Shifty Powers** » 11 Feb 2005 09:30

When you are working on the map, and before your gonna save it, then choose the floppy (top left) and save, that file can be used by everybody to change to what they want to do with it. (hopes this is enough explanation)

Shifty Powers · Post by **Shifty Powers** » 11 Feb 2005 17:58
