If you guys are gonna post "foreign language links" please let us know it is one so if we don't read, say lyric mandarin for instance, we won't waste our time going there.....
You can't tell from the link either since it is in english....A lot of us aren't even fluent in our native tongues let alone yours....

>C'mon Chuck. You know as well as I do the global nature of
>this board. I'm sure you are quite familiar with it Of course I am Andy...However it is still an English language board....The convention, which I'm sure even you remember , is not to post in another language and to warn us if links are in another language... This is every where on usenet..... Even the French have their own boards so they don't have to follow this stricture....IN any event Tiberius was gracious enough to provide me/us with a well translated into the vernacular english copy.... If he hadn't have done that the legions of us on here who are not Mandarin Readers and writers would have missed an article about an excellent upcoming sim......And that is the goal communication....Chuck Schneider

RE: Go! Go! Taipei Rapid Transit System

Sorry for posting a foreign language website ...
Now I've tried to translate that page into English, hope this helps --
Taipei Rapid Transit Company (also known as "metro Taipei") Chinese/English website: http://www.trtc.com.tw/--
"Go! Go! Taipei Rapid Transit System" is a game that lets player to become a TRTS driver, driving trains to transit passengers safely to various stations. As a metro driver, you must have a competitive heart, start your carrer from a "training driver", gaining your experience, and finally become a professional driver.<[ Famous buildings are included >]Developement team wanted to present greatest TRTS surroundings, so they spent lots of time to model landmarks around the line, and put them inside the game. When you're driving a train, don't forget to try identify each landmarks like Yuan-Shan Hotel, Shih-Lin Night Market, Yuan-Shan Soccer Dome !What's more, they also modeled featuring buildings which is not a landmark, so it's likely that you'll found your home inside the game, if you're living near the line !<[ Three difficulty levels of the game >]There are three difficulty levels in the game - Beginner, Medium, Difficult. In the Beginner level, the train will drive automatically, you only have to "start" the train, sound the horn, and broadcast station names. It's a mode that let beginners to familiar with TRTS driving operations. (P.S. It's also the normal operation mode of real TRTS trains.)In the Medium level, you have to drive the train yourself. Including all operations in Beginner level, the most import "handler" is in your hand, too. You have to pay attention at the speed codes & current speed on the meter, avoiding overspeed, and stop the train at stations in limited times. Be on time to get highest score.The Difficult level, added hard-to-handle "Events" in the game. You not only have to drive the train as in Medium level, you also have to handle these events - like "Earth Quake", "Strong Wind" - these events will seriously affect safety of TRTS, you can't hesitate or it'll be too late !<[ Paint cars as you like >]Besides several default paintings, you can paint TRTS cars yourself, and import into the game to drive ! Of course, you can exchange car paintings with others, or download new paintings from the internet.<[ Driving Replay >]You can record your driving progress, and replay it later, to examine your own performance or find ways to improve your driving skills. And the game also able to export/import driving replay data, so you can upload your own records and download other people's replay data to watch, study & compare.<[ Complete TRTS information >]Development team also included TRTS history info, construction progress, traffic & transport info of each TRTS stations, and over a hundred TRTS photos dedicated for those railway & TRTS fans.--
