Railsimroutes returns – new site design, work resuming on projects<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

\"RailsimroutesWell it’s been an incredibly long time since the last update here at Railsimroutes<\/em>… In the intervening years I’ve been very busy, and many things have changed with real life taking precedence. I studied for a Foundatation Degree in Railway Engineering and embarked on a career with the real railway, which as you can imagine didn’t leave much spare time to devote to the simulated world of openBVE<\/a>.<\/p>\n

However I now feel able to return to the hobby and I would really like to get my projects<\/a> released. I intend to finish off some of the tasks I started working on back in 2014, make the add-ons usable, and aim to get at least something<\/em> released. These releases won’t be as polished as previous versions, but given that all material will be released as open source and placed into the public domain, it can always be improved upon further down the line (pun intended!).<\/p>\n

Given how openBVE<\/a> has developed lately, I also want to release the UK Railway Infrastructure Object Library<\/a> soon to give the project a boost and provide a nice graphical upgrade for developers or users who wish to use its objects and textures.<\/p>\n

UkTrainSys plugin update – bugfix release v0.3.2.0<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

\"RailsimroutesThanks to Chris Lees<\/a>, I was notified (a long time ago!) of a bug in the Train Protection and Warning System (TPWS) simulation where an incorrect variable in the ArmTss()<\/code> method was reset upon passing an opposite-direction TSS f5 frequency. This was caused by a typo which Chris spotted in my code! Please head over to the UkTrainSys Plugin<\/a> page for the updated version. I have also updated the Class 323 3D Cab Add-on<\/a> with the updated UKTrainSys.<\/p>\n

New website design and content updates<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

\"RailsimroutesI wanted to learn HTML5 and revamp the design of Railsimroutes<\/em> with a more modern format, using the latest web standards with a focus on current standards compliant browsers. So today sees the launch of the fifth incarnation of Railsimroutes<\/em>, with a theme known as “Glass”<\/em>. I hope you like the new design. It is aimed primarily at desktop PC and tablet users, but does employ responsive design for use on smartphones, which may be further enhanced in future.<\/p>\n
