For example asking for an in depth analysis of Athena technology in the FAQ is simply not applicable.

I don't want to make the FAQ read-only, but will if necessary.]]> Tue, 14 Feb 2012 00:38:20 +0000 http://razorbackrailway.com/forums/topic/4016-faq-system/ http://razorbackrailway.com/forums/topic/4006-athena-v05/

Ask mode for mode select should work again now

demo processing added

beta demo key for testing added

stopAI no instantly stops a train

stopAIGently should make a prototypical stop

Athena v0.6 will have (planned);

• unlock key time out processing
  
• Developer permission needed to build a distributable Activity
  
• Local play Activity build processing if not a RBR Developer

This is a major update and contans (hopefully) all of the core complete. You will notice that in the Windoze client you can input (manually) or download (automatically) your unlock code from RBR. When you save it Athena will let TS12 know your code. Inside TS12 you will see your unlock details in the Activities Menu and the actual Activity list will show whether you are authorised to load the Activity.

One thing, if you try and load a RBR Activity from other than the Activities menu it will refuse your request quite curtly! The Activities menu is the place where you will interact with TLR eventually making it consider other ways in was simply a major drag and so I avoided it

I still have loads to go before starting on TLR stuff but I am hopeful that the guys will be able to start releasing real driving Activities soonish. Most are planning on making the new stuff Crew only so don't say I didn't warn you.

Now I am off to have some lunch and then back outside for farm stuff.]]> Tue, 07 Feb 2012 01:14:36 +0000 http://razorbackrailway.com/forums/topic/3991-athena-v04/ http://razorbackrailway.com/forums/topic/3987-payments-using-2checkout/ Thu, 02 Feb 2012 20:00:38 +0000 http://razorbackrailway.com/forums/topic/3987-payments-using-2checkout/ http://razorbackrailway.com/forums/topic/3984-two-days-so-far/ ]]> Mon, 30 Jan 2012 09:37:20 +0000 http://razorbackrailway.com/forums/topic/3984-two-days-so-far/ http://razorbackrailway.com/forums/topic/3981-rbr-blog-it-takes-so-long-well-because/ RBR itself then to Athena and finally into Trainz for the Activity system to use.

Even if proof is provided they charge your payment back. All without telling you.

Now the long-long standing policy has been if we are charged back for a payment by someone they are totally, absolutely banned forever and a day. It is of little difference why it occured what it means to us is two things.

• We can't trust your payments
  
• We get a 'hit' against us for fraudulent transactions

So for your own well being, do not permit PayPal (or anyone else) to investigate something hat you are fully aware is valid, you may lose access to RBR.]]> Fri, 20 Jan 2012 03:59:20 +0000 http://razorbackrailway.com/forums/topic/3968-paypal-asking-to-review-your-payment/ http://razorbackrailway.com/forums/topic/3961-rbr-blog-acs-text-file-processing/ ACS Text Format style control file.

If you have an issue with T4/T6 you should make sure that you use the Compendium which has all of the old RBR Activities and required assets.

The code seems right, if you reckon it is wrong make sure that you take a screenshot of the top of the screen. Make sure your user name is visible as well and I will have a look to see what it has done wrong.
