Summary
Developed by Auran, Trainz 2009 comes with a huge range of enhancements and new features and virtual rail fans are set to feel the power of five generations of rail simulation!
Players can drive using full in-cab realistic controls or simple ‘speed’ controller. They can issue "Driver Commands" to operate multiple locomotives simultaneously. It won't be easy, though. You'll need to keep to a passenger schedule, deliver freight, decouple wagons and much more.
There's a heavy emphasis on controlling your own experience, too. Add additional "Session Rules" to customize your living railroad, download 1,000's of routes, locos and more from the Trainz Download Station, send goods and trains to your friends and chat online.
You can even create your own 3D models or powerful TrainzScripts for unlimited flexibility.
New features in Trainz Simulator 2009 include the largest ever collection of quality routes, locos, rolling stock and scenery; twice the detail - trains, terrain and textures in higher resolution; optimizations allow twice the scenery detail as well; new ground clutter and decals add gritty realism to your world; more tools in Surveyor to allow easier terrain deformation and track laying; improved physics and easier re-configuration of locos and rolling stock; new user interface and Help system putting Trainz power into the hands of everyone; improvements to Content Manager Plus to make organizing your content even easier; embedded web browser allows more interaction, more information, more immersion; Trainz Exchange Community Portal for online chat, blogs, wikis and ‘scrapbooks’; a screenshot and video capture functions to help capture and share your experience and enormous content update to ensure maximum compatibility between versions.
