    Are there any updates for OR "MonoGame" version?

    G'day, I am currently using the (Open Rails NewYear MG(unoffical)4334 (debug)) and was wondering if there are any updates since that version and if so where to obtain them.
    It runs quite well on my PC and quite a bit better than the current standard version.

        Here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FMaF...ature=youtu.be a video can be seen, that shows the new camera that places itself at level crossings, station platforms and behind spawned cars. The camera is activated with Shift-4. Speed of spawned car the camera is following can be increased and decreased (within certain limits) with commands 9(NumKey) and 3(Numkey).

            Does the old PC have the Mono runtime installed?

              G'day mikeebb, yes I did install that. I get a popup window saying "Open Rails Activity Runner has stopped working". It is a bit disappointing as it would be nice to be able to run it so a comparison can be made between the two (when I get the other up and running).

                G'day All, I finally found the answer to my post No.5. today when I updated the install I am using a note popped up saying that Microsoft.net framework was required so I installed it and while it was installing I thought that maybe this was the problem with my install of "Open Rails NewYear MG (unofficial)1.3.1-18 Rev.11(debug)" so once the install was finished I tried it and bingo it ran without any issues. Does this indicate that OpenRails is now "Monogame"?

                    No, the standard OR is not yet MG, but what you found out (that is that now .Net Framework 4.7.2 is needed) is a preparation for the switch to MG.
                    By the way this means that new releases of the official OR don't run any more on XP, Win7 without SP1 and Win8.
