Pictures of your games (non-OT thread)

I don't have a problem with it, as long as they are clearly labled. Otherwise we get the silly questions, "Why doesn't my TTD do that?"

These are both in the same general area (clicky):

Wow, a non-patched screen shot('s)
Nice, its been ages from the last non-modded version, I like

(edit) Err, never mind, i see some patch's up close, dame pitty. (/edit)

In second pic, trains are all stopped because all lights are red, and mail is blocking

*Posts more screenshots*.

I am really enjoying this map - I would have to say that this has been the best game I have had with the US Set so far. The maps I make in the scenario editior are all good and well, but there is nothing like using the US Set, in the climate and the map setting that it is designed for.

Long freight trains, not a single electric wire for miles... it's a great game. I'll post the save when I'm done with it.

For those who don't know what I am rambling about, I'm playing on Jim Powers' "Mid Central Rails" scenario.

EDIT: Please look at the pictures in the following order for them to make sense: 1,3,2. Due to the scale of the "second" picture, it got booted to the bottom of the stack. Thanks

Rai,
these are some very nice pictures indeed.

very nice pictures Raichase, i sometimes use the same system of trains bringing in food to a central yard and lorries loading up and taking it away, just like in real life

Yeat another shot of my game of my USSet + Alpine Climate + Midland Rails.
Made my gameplay style A LOT more realistic, i.e dropped mail cars from local trains.

Picture Description:A EP-2 'Bipolar' Pulling a Local Train in to Platform 4 at Detroit.

Akalamanaia i was wondering who had me quoted in their sig and its you, brilliant,

Just a quick question about your game, do you run your train lines in big loops cos in your screenshot you only have tracks going north-west

Villem · Post by **Villem** » 19 May 2005 15:18

yes all my stations are Ro-Ro, meaning the network is just one big loop with lots of branches. Though atm, the passenger network is totally restricted from the freight network expect for 2 points where tracks intersect so the passenger tracks go over the freight tracks. Later the Passenget network will have tracks leading to them from freight network to get goods in.

Yeah, I'm trying that Midwest Rails map at the moment. But I just quit the game after an hour of building, it wasn't working out

I do that A LOT, I can never decide on games, I always quit or never touch it again. I have probably spent the most time (since I came back) on the Centre junction map [for the contest]. I enjoy the longmaps too, I had a nice game on the temperate longmap but my sister overwrote it with her game [yes, sister]. The arctic map is cool, but too long.....

I'm a bit of a loser....

Yeat again more shots of my game of my USSet + Alpine Climate + Midland Rails.

Picture 1 Description:here you see a local train EP-2 'Bipolar' Approaching Platform 4 at Detroit, while a S2 'Northern' Express Train is loading on Platform 1, and another S2 'Northern' is just going through Platform 2 as this station is not on its schedule. The train going past Platform 2 is longer than the one on Platform 1 cause it does not stop as often. These S2 'Northern' units are first on the company(well as well were the EP-2 'Bipolar' Local Trains.
Picture 2 Description:Here we see the longer express train loading on Platform 2 at lansing, you also see that instead of 2 platforms for Local Trains, theres just 1, and 2 platforms for express trains. You also see part of the freight network.

[edit]Sorry for confusion, but when fixing pictures after some missing cropping, and removing build railroad tool menu from another, moved the attachments upside down, Picture 1 Description is for Union Pacific 6.png, and Description 2 for Union Pacfic 7.png[/edit]
