Maybe an update to the current version A7 might help. Also you can try the 32 bit version, it has less issues than the 64 bit and performance wise you won't notice any difference.

Hello Andreano. There is an issue with the classic menu in TC10. I already had contact with Freiwald on it and he is aware, but since his weird policy is to never publish release notes it is only by trial and error we can detect if it is solved in new releases. In the mean time I got it to work...

Traincontroller 10 Gold 19 Level Crossing TC has a “crossing gate” function. The gate closes when the route on which the crossing is placed is reserved, it opens again when the route is free. In case this route triggering for the gate is too soon or too late we can build our own level...

Traincontroller 10 Gold 18 Send Trains to Specific Tracks If a schedule has multiple destination blocks, like say a multi-track station or yard, a block gets chosen randomly. There are a few ways to change this randomness and send trains to specific blocks: - Use train lengths and allow...

Traincontroller 10 Gold 17 Signals. The easiest way to control signals is to give the signal inside the block a DCC address. These signals now follow the block signal colors. If you desire different switching logic for your signals, you will have to place separate signals on the switch panel...

Transport Fever 2 as Model Railway 07 Drive backwards out of Dead Ends By default TF2 flips trains around at dead ends to always leave head first. For a model railway we don't want this behavior. Luckily there is a mod that we can install that lets the trains drive in reverse, driving backwards...

Traincontroller 10 Gold 14 Request Yellow. Instead of limiting the max speed in a block, which influences all trains that drive through the block, 'Request Yellow' is an alternative method to slow down trains in the block before a scheduled stop. If we place this request yellow in blocks that...

Traincontroller 10 Gold 13 Simplified Speed Profile. We want our trains to have accurate stop positions in the blocks, and to drive around with visually pleasing accelerations and decelerations. To accomplish this we have to calibrate the loc in Traincontroller. In many cases the Simplified...
