    TBH at this stage the greater concern has to be whether the MSTS editors will continue to function in Win 10, as while I know the OR team have aspirations to produce their own that is likely to be a few years away.

      If the editors work in 8.1 they should work in 10 since 10 is supposed to be just a fixed version of 8.1.

        Yeah, that's not entirely true. You can't just throw nine women into a room for a month and produce a baby...

        The more people working on tasks, the more coordination you need and the greater the risk for people making changes that negatively impact other areas.
        If you like what you see here at Trainsim.com, be it the discussions and knowledge in the forums, or items available in our library, I hope you'll consider a paid membership to help support keeping the site operating.... Thanks!

          Thanks for explaining that, you did better than I could have done, in 20 years of progarmming having preferred to do all the coding myself, the company of my partner taking care of supplying the servers and workstations hardware to run my multi-user Novell networked accounting software on.

          I still remember what the CEO of the UK Pegasus Accounting Software once said to me, that his programmers were a bunch of headless chicken, not having a capable team leader to co-ordinate what they were doing, which showed in its many individual program *.EXEs used by it.

            An observation that has been made in human endeavors for the past ten thousand years, or most of recorded history.
            In reality neither the top nor the bottom of the structure (pyramid or otherwise) knows what the true reality is -- at either end.
            Both ends serve their own needs and somehow manage to meet larger goals -- we are a dysfunctional, high functioning, specie.

              Just want to take this opportunity to support Larry Steiner 'geekman' praise for the Open Rails team. Installed the
              OR 'Sim' several days ago and the performance for me is just sensational!! Totally stable ( no more constant saving )
              and a seemless marriage with my existing MSTS - never imagined I would see such a development and all for FREE!!
              "Thankyou" hardly seems adequate but is certainly heartfelt.

                I concur. I have been running OR exclusively for the past 18 months, just excellent results. The few times I did have an error...nothing like the old MSTS crashes..I simply resumed from my last save and was up and running in seconds. No more waiting. I'm sure you'll find more to love about it, just the camera flexibility is worth it. Keep up with the releases...friday experimentals.

                The team has done and IS doing a superior job...KUDOS to them.
