Oldest versions of the game.

Post by MTRHK »

Hi I was wondering whether anybody knows what was in the 1st version of the game?

The version with Simvliet Centrum not on bridge (as I remember) was 3.5 (or it was bonus map for beta 3). Version on screenshot is surely Beta 3.0. I have both of them.

No. As you can see in the video, half of the route is not done, plus it's very unstable and the amount of features is minimal compared to now. For example there isn't any sound from other trains or from 3rd person camera, only from driver cam. Also there is no coupling or whatsoever possible within the timetable, train physics is minimal (no friction and such) and graphics are horrible compared to the current version. Plus that the performance is awful, while currently you can easily have 75 trains in the train yard, with this version above 25 the framerate was dropping like a rock. And did I mention it being unstable? The software eats memory (which is why most routes are half empty) and often just hangs for a few seconds. Which isn't that weird, the software was never written to support huge routes and many trains.

It would be good if the simulator that showed up in "MetroSim Demo video 2" would be in somewhere downloadable, because it looked quite big and non-laggy.
