Glad to see the updates.

I don't see the updates at GokuMK TSRE. Is there another github site?

The updates are being posted at trainsim.com. See the original post above.

This is a forked version, so they won't be showing up on Goku's Repository.

Once there's a consensus that 8.003 is stable, some of the changes will be submitted via a pull request which Goku would have to approve, but he's been very insistent that it only be done after adequate testing has been accomplished. Three or four of us have tested what's out and available, but it's really going to take a lot more people using it and acknowledging that things are good before I'd feel comfortable submitting the request.

If you want to try compiling the 8.003 code on your own, it's available at https://github.com/e...ainsim.Com-Fork

Great, and again, thank you for the work (and to Goku for starting it).

V8.004a was released for testing tonight... this adds in a centerline offset for laying out signals, and a menu function to reload marker files without closing down the sim.

New testing versions will be released as frequently as the changes pass unit testing.

TSRE will continue to use Agile i.e. small bite size deliverables with very frequent updates vs. a monolithic release every six to eighteen months...

Hi, that is a great update!! Will be there a fix or function to allow Terrtext Custom Size? the actual sizes are very heavy, each file is 49mb for a 4096x4096 and there are no functions to allow resizements!

Another suggestion is to check the stability of the AI Traffic, many times some services don't show up in activity mode.. and the only way to fix it is to remake the Path with the Path Editor, delete the service and re-insert it..

The same thing appens on the player service, many times the path results broken or in End-Aut, sometimes waiting points doesn't works and by my way it depends by the TSRE5 Editor..

These are some my suggestion to improve better way the Editor!! Thanks to all of you for reaching this fixes

Terrtex, at least if painted on, even a tiny overspray, revert to uncompressed aces. It would be great if there was an option to recompress them!

I'm not sure if this is what you mean, but the size of terrtex patches can be any size as long as it is square, so 3000x3000 or 2000x2000 will work fine.

[Genma Saotome]

IIRC when spraying terrtex there is a discrepancy that occurs between the assumed "repeat scale" of the spray and the "repeat scale" existing art. By this I mean if you set the original art to tile 4x4 the new pixels go down as 1x1. Pretty much the same issue occurs when the number of pixels per side is different between the two pieces of art. AFAIK there isn't a way for the software to know what to do -- checking the scaling already present doesn't necessarily answer for the new pixels. I think the only solution is for the user provide an answer of how to "scale" the spray. Most of the time no change is called for.

As an example: row crops. To get them narrow enough you might want to scale them 4x4. The patch runs under the railroad ROW and so you want to put down a run of dusty dirt. Leave the scaling at 1 and the dirt pixels are too large next to the crop, you need to change the scaling.

An observation: Painted patches in TSRE get a serial number for a file name. At first I thought well, that's that. But I learned If you pull the right file from \tiles into Archibald you can edit these names into something sensible, such as the tile id plus a patch number. You could make it easier by allowing the user to provide a name / edit the serial number name.
