New scenery for MSTS

Postby fabiane » Fri Jan 11, 2008 11:06 am

Hi all,

there's a new freeware scenery out for MSTS. Great! A gigantic large routenetwork and comes with trains. Situated in switzerland. Some historic and some up to date trains. Also a lot of missions are included.

"New roads" and "xtracks" are required (also freeware addons...).

Cheers,
Fabian

Stunning! That old sim is still going strong I see..  :o
If the new one supports XP and DX9 I'll buy it, if it's going to try to force me to buy Vista and a  DX10 card, well, it can wait for a year or two, no hurry, especially when the old one still looks so nice!

Kirgl, did you down this route already?
I forgot to mention, it's the Bodensee Toburg Bahn.
Here's the routemap (blue = track):

In the heart of switzerland and in the middle of the alps. Not very far from Stuttgart BTW, 2,5 h car drive. Really a nice track. I'm starting to be a fan of that old swiss trains.

Cheers,
Fabian

I think MSTS2 will support XP...It will run on the FSX engine ;)

There's no MS ship sim, but there is a Ship Simulator 2007 out there.

I need to find a copy of MSTS, train sims are fun

I know Ship Simulator 2006 & 2008, is there also a 2007 Version out?

MSTS is really a nice sim, but like FS, you'll have to get some addons to make it more pleasant to the eyes.

Cheers,

LOL, that HL2 engine is really impressive...., were is that? Is that the expansion series? Can't remember seeing such in the normal HL2 game...

Old MSTS engine can't really compete with that, but it's quite good considering its age.

Cheers,
Fabian

Hey, just bought MSTS today! For the second time in my life, lol (first one I lent to my sister's boyfriend...it disappeared along with him a year or two ago).

Would you mind putting here a list of 'must have' add-ons, I mean like X-tracks, new roads, whatever else makes the sim generally prettier or allows you to do more stuff...I'm anxious to begin downloading muahahahaaaa....
