32-bit or 64-bit Windows?

Open Rails is currently a 32-bit program that will run on either 32-bit Windows or 64-bit Windows. When run on a 64-bit Windows system there are some benefits as follows.

Programs compiled for 32-bit Windows are always limited to using a maximum of 2GB of memory. Many current PCs, especially 64-bit systems, have more than this. Fortunately it is possible to compile a program, for 64-bit systems only, which can use up to 4GB of memory and this is called a Large Address Aware (LAA) option. The downloads include both the usual version and the LAA version and you choose between them in the Options form.

What hardware does Open Rails require?

Processor : 2.0 GHz (32 or 64-bit)
Memory : minimum = 0.5 GB, recommended = 2 GB
Hard drive : 40 MB (but models require lots of space. The 6 routes in Microsoft Train Simulator require 1.4 GB)
Graphics Hardware : minimum = 128 MB dedicated video RAM with Pixel Shader 2.0, recommended = 256 MB RAM with Pixel Shader 3.0
Graphics Software : as provided by Windows. Open Rails currently uses DirectX^® - version 9.0c
Sound : compatible with DirectX^® - version 9.0c

Do I need Microsoft Train Simulator installed to use Open Rails?

You do not need Microsoft Train Simulator installed in order to use Open Rails.

When Microsoft Train Simulator is installed, then Open Rails can safely make use of all the Microsoft Train Simulator content as it does not change any Microsoft Train Simulator files.

Most non-Microsoft Train Simulator routes, activities and rolling stock make use of some Microsoft Train Simulator content, usually sound files, textures and cab interiors. If products designed for Microsoft Train Simulator are used on a PC with Open Rails but not Microsoft Train Simulator, then they are likely to work but some sounds and textures will be missing. Such files will be listed with warnings in the Open Rails log file.

How can I recognise add-on products for Microsoft Train Simulator that require Microsoft Train Simulator files?

Add-ons designed for Microsoft Train Simulator may rely on files from the Microsoft Train Simulator product. For instance:

Routes provided with an Install.bat file that copies shapes and textures from the routes on the Microsoft Train Simulator CDs.
Locomotives that re-use cabviews or sounds from the locomotives on the Microsoft Train Simulator CDs (see folder TRAINSET).
Rolling stock that have sound management (SMS) files that refer to wave files from the Microsoft Train Simulator CDs (see folder SOUND).

If I install Open Rails, will it change my Microsoft Train Simulator files?

No, Open Rails does not modify any Microsoft Train Simulator files.

Does Open Rails suppport RailDriver?

Yes; this cab controller from P.I.Engineering is suitable for Open Rails and support for it is built in to the simulator. Installation instructions are included in the installation download (and also from this webpage). Eric Conrad has posted a detailed review on his MSTS Roundhouse blog which provides valuable advice for using this product.

Does Open Rails report data back to its creators?

Not at the moment. Data on how Open Rails is used will be very helpful for the project but, if we wish to collect usage data, we will inform you beforehand and you will always be able to opt out.

An okay game and better than the 2015 version.

Train Simulator 2013 has worse graphics than the 2015 version, but that is to be expected. The question is that should you buy this version, or the 2014 or 2015 version? If you can get this game for a reasonably low price, then go for the 2013 version. There is not much to do within the game, which ironically makes it a seemingly accurate train simulator. If you purchase the later games, then all you are doing is paying a lot more money for what is essentially a visually upgraded game and not much more.

A Very Slow Game But That Is Rather Like Real Life

It seems unfair to criticize the game for being a little slow and dull; when that is what being a real train driver is like. There is very little to do other than starting and stopping the train. There are times when you see a speed sign and it means you can go a little faster or have to go a little slower, otherwise it is mostly a game where you watch the scenery go by.

Complete The Missions

The missions you have to complete usually involve getting from one point to another point, but then there is very little variety in real life so there is not much they can add into the game. For example, on one mission you have to impress a bunch of people with your new train, but it is not as if you can turn on the laser turrets and take out a field of cows as you ride.

Honk Your Horn If You Like

As a train simulator it is pretty good, but there is little more to the game than experiencing what it is like to be a train driver. The later games (up to 2015) are very expensive and are graphically and visually a lot better than this game, but the extra visual experience is all you are paying for. There are not exactly epic amounts going on outside the train in the later versions in the same way that there is not much going on outside the train on this version. The scenery is not a cardboard cut-out, which means you will see cars driving and smoke coming from people’s chimneys and such.
