Aug-15-01, 09:05 AM (EST) "Chicago Elevated Railways Update 8/15" I know many of you are wondering where version 0.7 is. Well I figured I would give you all a little update on what to expect, and about when to expect it.
Lately I have been working on the track south of the 17th/18th street Junction of the South Side and the Midway / Dan Ryan Lines, extending from the existing track over the Midway lines to the Dan Ryan Line, thus extending to Cermak - Chinatown.
Afterwards I began building north from Tower 18 through Wilson on the Northwestern's tracks, then after completing Wilson I began building west on the Ravenswood branch. Last night I was having trouble with a switch and a dynamic track curve. Where after the tracks curve south from Kimball, they meet the track entrance switches, and the one closest to the dynamic track is causing the system to lock up anytime I select it, and rebuilding the track database dosen't help. So I will tackle that problem tonite, and more than likely upload it after I do. Though I will not be creating the yard, because I have to figure out how to rig it to remove the possibility of a continuous circuit, which has been demonstrated to freeze the sim.
To summerize, the next version will include the initial track of the Northwestern Elevated, and the Ravenswood Branch (in it's entirety). Also it will include the trackage leading from the south side elevated to the Dan Ryan line, extending to Cermak - Chinatown. Hopefully I will be able to finish this tonite, and thus upload it tonite. -Chris Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top
