Hi to all,

The EL Mainline templates are now finished. The NB and SB templates are runs between Niagara and the Bison Yards while the EB and WB handle rune between the DLW,ERIE,Black Rock Yards and the Bison Yards. At this point, 30 templates have now been done.

Some shots of the activities generated by AG















EL LOCALS, YARDS templates are still to come and maybe some EL extras may come later.

Will update later.

Hello to all,

Just to confirm the EL templates are now finished. There has been 19 templates done for the EL. That brings the current total of templates to 41. For the last Railroad, the Penn Central, it is estimated that between 20 and 25 templates will complete the package. However, the number of paths is expected to be higher since the PC track network exceeds by far the others.

I am currently awaiting for Teemu to send me an update to the route. Unfortunately, he didn't shed any light as for a oncoming date release, not yet. Time will tell.

More later

Hello to all,

I am happy to announce that the Buffalo Templates are now finished. A few years ago, when I have first seen this route (the earlier version in 2009), I couldn't imagine possible creating a project with the route. It was too complex for me to have one done. Well today, I am proud this is now behind. Additional years of experience and careful planning made this project possible. Now let's hope to see that oncoming route released soon! (No date release yet - still in testing phaze)

Here are some numbers coming with the template project: 67 templates, 10 different RR's (BCK, NIAJ, SB, B&O, N&W, TH&B, CN, LV, EL and finally the PC), 187 consists, 335 template (ACT,CTP,PRO, SWLACT, SWLTDB) files, 302 path files, 336 service files, 58 traffic files and ... many hours of work. Traffic files are lower since some of the traffic patterns are used by two templates. Each template has been customized to increase performance by removing all regions that were not required in the SWLTDB file while having a reasonable railfill around the player paths. Despite that, the user will have to adjust graphic and sound sliders for lower-end computers. It has been difficult to find the proper balance.

I will resume testing, but on a slower pace since other issues are taking some of my time until everything gets back to normal. Well that's life isn't it?

The readme file is still to be started and this will take time to detail the templates and instructions to run them.

Will update later with pics of some of the activities generated or any route developments.

Hi to all,

Here are some of the first shots of Acts for the PC. They have been done a few weeks ago but have been able to post them only now. Screenshots are taken from acts for the PC Merchants and Williamsville templates.Here I have swapped locos to use BLW GP30's





















Enjoy the shots

Hello to all,

Just to update the route project by Teemu Saukkonen.

Earlier in July, Pete Mulvey (xpdingo) has been able to contact Teemu and he received the following reply about the Buffalo route project:

Hello, it should be ready to be released, but I haven't checked everything
yet. I have had no time during the summer, maybe during the autumn.

Teemu


Thanks Pete for the shared info!

Nick,

The templates have been finished this February. All that remains is on Teemu's side to release the route. For the numbers see post 63.

Thanks

Hi to all,

Great news!

Just to confirm that the route has been officially released at Train-Sim this morning.

Before releasing the templates, it will be necessary to check them again, to make sure no changes have been made in the TDB file, making some of the template files unusable.

If some of you are willing to test the templates, let me know.

Thanks

Denis

Hello to all,

I have decided to release the route templates as is. There has been a lot of work done already on this project and I do lack some extra time to recheck again the whole template package. I believe there will be minimal changes to the templates. I will count on users to help me if some route paths have been unusable between the latest beta I had (number 865) and the official route release.

I am waiting for Steve to reply before sending him the template package to be uploaded to the templates page.

Pending the availability of this template in the templates page, I will provide a link to our AG users to retrieve themselves the template package. Simply send me a PM and I will send you the OneDrive link to download the set.

This is the image expected to be seen in the templates page once available.



Will update with any developments.

Hello to all,

The Buffalo templates are now available to download in the templates page.

I would like to take some time to thank the following concerned:

Teemu Saukkonen ( aka enocell in TS) for this exceptionnal and massive route. I believe this has been quite a challenge to build it and congratulations. Our users will enjoy using the route and its almost endless possibilities.

Pete Mulvey (aka xpdingo) to have given me the privilege to undertake in his place the Buffalo route template project. It has started 3 1/2 years ago and happy this is done now.

Tim Muir, who gave me permission to include with the download the NIAJ 15 electric loco, normally available only at the Elvas Tower site. This will allow a more realistic the use of the NIAJ Templates.

Rick Franzosa, who provided the BLW/ZT Buffalo Mega Pack, exceptionnal by its quantity as well by its quality.

Craig Kawahara, who provided me, at the early stages, the map system draft of the route, which needed to be updated regularly until the recent update. A lot of work there as there were many changes to the route datebase. That helped me to define the 100+ regions that composed the route template system.

Benny, who tested continually with me the templates, giving me some precious suggestions as well to improve the package. A big thanks again Benny.

My apologies to those I may have forgotten.

Again Steve thanks for your constant assistance, also for Activity Generator, which I am still enjoying today after all these years.

To all our AG users: thanks for your interest with the templates, enjoy the templates and happy trainsimming.

Denis,
Great template, I just finished the many yards SNB 1 and I worked great, I like the way you routed the AI trains around the yard areas and even noticed some AI trains off in the distance when I was doing my final work at PC-Frontier yard, great effects. I'm running the route in OR.
One area I noticed is the names of some of the yards "tracks" have changed in the final release and that some of the yard tracks in the Bethlehem mill area are gone.

The changes were small and I was able to update my old mill template from the Beta version and run some activities.

Can't wait to run some more of your templates great work.

Just an FYI if you get to changing any of the templates there is a great "hot steel" bottle car and a set if "ingot mold" cars at TS File: dv_stc_a.zip that would look good on the hot metal tracks and the teaming tracks for any of the mills on the route.

Thank you for all you work.

Peter

Hi Peter,

Glad you are still enjoying the templates and now Buffalo.

Following your comments, I have taken a look at the Bethlehem steel area to check some of the markers that would be off track and found nothing so far. The latest Beta version I had before its official release was 865. Can you tell me more specifically which ones you have found changes.

Have downloaded the file in question and will be looking up the possibility of updating, not sure though.

Will wait for your reply.

Thanks

Denis,
I think the problems I listed was more due to the many changes that have taken from the first beta and the second beta ant the final release, I'm finding that you templates are working fine and some of the errors may be between Craig's maps and the current revision.
As of yet i have not found any "OOPS' yet and will email you if I do.

Peter

I'm having a great time with the route but ran into one snag. On the NIAJ template I can't get the electric locos to work, tried pan up and pan down and get no power.

They also won't run in explore mode. I'm running windows 10 and and open rails.

All my files are in a C: MSTS1 folder, I can run all the desiel power OK. Any help will be apreciated.

No rush as I'm love running the Alcos under the wire.

Thanks
Peter
