Testing v8.005

[eric]

The missing double track pieces might just be a flipped vector. Take a look at it in track viewer and it might be complete, but the yellow line itself is flipped 180°.

Hi Eric,

Thanks - I'm all set - I was simply offering feedback on what I found. Easy to fix.

I have a few problems with the version ‘Trainsim.Com Fork v0.8.005u’. Firstly, I would like to mention the poor performance. When gliding over the track, the camera stops for seconds. I think this is mainly caused by the settings.txt settings.

I have changed some settings in the meantime, but I don't remember everything, in any case I have added a # to AASamples = 16, so that it works a little better now.
When editing a route, however, it could no longer be loaded into OpenRails because I received an IndexMismatch Error. Investigations revealed a spelling mistake in Hazzard. A double Z is needed here.
The picture in the appendix shows an excerpt of the memory differences between two TSRE versions after changing one track. The route cannot be reloaded into OpenRails.

Hazzard / Hazard should be accepted by ORTS with either one or two Z's, but two Z's isn't a correct spelling.

[kapitaen]

Double Z in the .tdb
Single Z in the .w
otherwise it will not work.

Didn't Daisy Duke live in Hazzard County??

SORRY!!

[eric]

Indeed she did.

Hi Ged - I'm sorry to crash the thread, but I had to change email and lost contact with you. I'd like to keep in touch. Sent you a PM. Stuart

OK, working with Martin and his Chiltern route, it's possible some changes introduced between versions R and U might be behaving badly.

I've rolled a few of those changes back in version 8.005v, which will be posted later tonight.

I've also disabled the text labels unless you add "viewTRLables = true" into your settings file, as that may have been behind the poor performance that some were experiencing.

[eric]

For those looking... I'm cleaning up something I discovered early this morning.

The tolerance for joining tracks in TSRE was set to 0.17m for a gap or overlap, and may need to be a little larger to avoid track sections breaking mid-vector. Setting to 0.25m works, now I'm trying to bring that back down closer to 0.20m, as that's the shortest piece I've found.

Also, the TIT/RIT weren't being cleaned up correctly, so I'm trying to get that fixed before putting v8.005v out for download again.

If you did download it overnight, delete it. I'll have a clean replacement available possibly later tonight.

I'll back out the change which corrects the bad spelling, but that's sounding like a flaw ORTS needs to fix. TSRE is set up to create Hazards, and they seemed to load without the error.

Eric, this is just an FYI. I don't know if this is really an issue...it may be just the Graphics on this particular computer....(Intel(R) Iris(R) Xe Graphics)...this is a dell all-in-one computer...so I think the graphics is coming out of the cpu....I haven't tried this on my Windows 10 box yet. Notice the distance Terrain on first Image.

Hi Eric,
Is it possible that the test version: “Trainsim.Com Fork v0.8.005w” contains a memory management error?
When starting the program, I have a main memory consumption of approx. 6.3 GB which then increases until the program crashes.
When calling “TSRE5 0.7.012” the memory requirement is fixed at approx. 6.2 GB.

Greetings and thanks for your work
