Upgrading from Trainz 2009 to Trainz 2012.....

Post by Jay »

Hello, I hope everyone is well. :)

I've been thinking about upgrading from Trainz 2009 to Trainz 2012 for quite a while now. Before I do get it, I just want to know if I need steam to use Trainz2012 (as a friend has told me I need steam to play it) or can I run it without steam?

Also what are the pro's and con's of Trainz 2012 and is there anything I might need to know before upgrading?

Thanks for any info in advance,
Jay. :)

You can buy it on Steam if you want, but it's also available direct from the Trainz store at https://store.trainzportal.com/products ... mulator-12

Although if your hardware can support it, it might be worth getting the newer TANE (Trainz a New Era), which has vast improvements in graphics.

Thanks for your reply Mark!

I think I'll upgrade just to Trainz 2012 at this moment in time as my current PC won't cope with TANE (TANE's graphics does look good though), I think I'll buy Trainz 2012 from the Trainz store some point soon.
