The color elf painted all of the tenders red. I think those cars are why Costco ran out of red paint. I've started a new New England Big game with just me and so far enjoying the freedom from the AI nonsense. I've pretty much concluded that in Railroads! the AIs very often ruin the game with their aggressive expansion and absurd track configurations that destroy your plans and just leave you shaking your head. So I upped my virtual memory to a little over 2GB and so far, so good. New England Big crashed on me a couple of times after there was a lot of AI bridge contortions on the map. So I downloaded that new version just to compare and can't get it to load at all.
Same author, I believe, but definitely a different version. Yesterday I reviewed the map database over there and see that my version of New England, "New England Big", is no longer there and apparently replaced by one called New England-SAM. I've also tried putting a map in the main game folder where the default maps are and that won't work either. Don't know why, but if you put anything else in that folder, it will likely crash the game. Over at SMRsimple, I read way back when that you can only put one map at a time in that folder.

On most machines it will probably be drive letter C: Mine is D: because I dual boot and use C: for Windows 98SE. The added SAM maps go in the UserMaps folder that is found with this path.ĭ:\Documents and Settings\(Your Name)\My Documents\My Games\Sid Meier's Railroads!\UserMaps I think i'll wipe Railroad off the drive and try again. I 'm running a system 64 machine so the directions don't help me very much. I found the California map and stuck it every place I could think of but without result. I looked for the 6 maps but never found them. I had also downloaded about 6 other maps as I want to see how realistic they looked. Good idea starting another thread for Railroads. I want the freedom to build and grow the want I want to.
I dislike having to haul a specific number of loads of a specific cargo to specific cities by a specific year. It's early goals are strictly monetary and that's the way I like it. Because I re-installed it by itself this afternoon, fired it up, and it works fine! Great map, too, and it is already my favorite of those I've played so far. But after my experience today, I wondered if back then I had done the same thing and installed it in the user maps folder with another map.įirst evidence is that is exactly what I had done. Much as I wanted to try it, it was apparently not to be. At the time, I concluded that it was just a problem map and noted the file accordingly. So then I remembered having problems with the New England Big map.years ago. The game then went back to trouble-free play. So I deleted both maps and the problem was fixed. I don't understand why, but you simply can't do it. I went back to SMRSimple and re-read the info about playing SAMs and surmised that my problem was that I had installed both the California and San Francisco user maps in the user maps folder and you can't do that. Attempt after attempt, with other scenarios.and the game crashed. Exited and tried again.and the game crashed. The more I play this game, the more I like it and I may have to eat words I said just days ago about always going back to RRTII.Įarlier today I attempted to load the NW scenario and the game crashed. I've got more to say about Railroads!, so I thought a new thread is in order.
