I'm opening a thread here to collect any queries/bugs on the route as well as to anounce any updates/new scenarios/bugfixes etc. This route is set in Britain at the end of the steam era and the beginning of the diesels. It covers the ECML from Kings Cross up to York, and the Cambridge main line from the junction with the ECML at Hitchin through Cambridge up to Ely. It also has the freight-only line between St Ives and Ely; the passenger line from Huntingdon East via St Ives to Cambridge and the route out to Newmarket. With v5.5 it also covers two work-in-progress sections: · the line between Peterborough East and Ely · the line from Cambridge to Mildenhall. At present about 350+ route miles - with a mixture of main line, some classic branch line and some industrial mileage. 1,694 track miles. The line covers 100+ stations - ranging from the tiny branch halts through the 1.5 miles of Cambridge station to the congested environs of Kings Cross, Peterborough, York and Top Shed. The route website is here: https://sites.google.com/site/cambridgelinesrailworks/home. This contains a route description, pictures, downloads etc. I started the route in 2009 and have worked on it ever since. As well as the route there are also a few of the loco enhancement packs that I created to help populate the route in a more realistic manner - this includes some 'missing' locos like the J19, J69 and D16. The route is big and uses a metric LOVE-ton of stuff - I have tried to keep requirements down but it is a bit of a beast! Also quite pretty, very historically accurate and generally smashing ;-). I am currently upgrading grass and trees...
What are you currently running? It'll run on an i5 with gfx turned down. If you have i7 or above then it will be ok (depending on gfx card etc etc).
I've just come across two scenario packs for the route from Leonard at Golden Age developments - they are set just pre-war (late LNER period) and have fully-featured stocklists and realistic activities. They look great though my incompetence with the breathtaking CW P1 currently has me stuck at New England shed...
I posted this on another thread but I didn’t see this one. Can I ask which embankment lofts the route uses? And which requirement they are from? all embankment lofts say “MISSING TEXTURE” on them even though I have all requirements installed and I’ve tried re installing many times. And clearing cache, and many other things to try and fix it. I thought if I knew where to find the loft files I will be able to work out what’s wrong but I just need to know which embankments the route actually uses. thanks Zack
Hi Zack, The embankments are mostly BarnsRS Cornish line and the textures are here: BarnsRS\Cornish Branch Line\Scenery\Procedural\Textures This is part of the included download so i am mystified as to why yours should be missing. Pls check the location first off and let me know what you find. Neil
I’ll start by saying, I really really appreciate the reply. I thought asking in a thread that hasn’t been used in a year was a shot in the dark but the fact that you are active to help here is amazing honestly. I just had to delete the barnsrs folder and re install the asset packs. No clue why this happened. I had to do this with some UKTS stuff to so I’m assuming it’s the way my computer deals with the .rwps . Not sure. really appreciate the help Neil, exactly what I needed. keep up the work, thanks again, zack
