MURCHISON M-LOGGING TRS2004 INSTALLATION
 

See bottom of page for Installation procedures

 

NOTE

While Murchison can be run without purchasing the payware content users may find that it is extremely slow loading in TRAINZ

If you want to check out Murchison, before buying the content, you will need to go into Surveyor and select "Delete missing content" to remove the payware items.

For those who have purchased the PAYWARE content there have been no reported speed problems that have not been able to be sorted through a correct installation.(this of course does not apply to slow computers. However Murchison is designed to work well in medium spec machines)

(For those users who purchase the payware content the route files and ALL other freeware content is available for high speed download from the TRAINZONE internet server)

 

Free Download

TRAINZ version for TRS2004 with M-Log interactive logging

 

(For those users who purchase the payware content the route file and ALL other freeware content is available for high speed download from the TRAINZONE internet server)

CONTENT to be downloaded from AURAN DOWNLOAD STATION for TRAINZ TRS2004 installation

(if you have purchased, or are about to purchase, the full River/Waterfall /Texture series then note that you will not need to download from this page as you will receive a special VIP link containing all necessary content for Murchison )

INSTALLATION PROCEDURES

 
TRS2004 install
 
Step 1: Download and install MURCHISON M-LOGGING TRS2004 route above

Step 2: Download and Install "AURAN DOWNLOAD STATION CONTENT" listed above.

Step 3: Download and Install "CONTENT ON OTHER SITES for TRAINZ TRS2004" listed above

Step 4 Ensure that you do not have Prowlers track files installed in the custom directory

When installing the CDP files you have just downloaded the track will now correctly install into the DOWNLOADS directory. If you have already manually installed Prowlers narrow gauge track files then you will need to manually delete the existing files

The track directories to be deleted are:

     \Program files \ Auran \ Trainz \ World \ Custom \ Track \ narrowgauge and

     \Program files \ Auran \ Trainz \ World \ Custom \ Track \ ng_clear

The watertank directory to be deleted is:

     \Program files \ Auran \ Trainz \ World \ Custom \ Scenery \ watertank_old

Step 5: Run TRS2004 and select Murchison M-logging TRS2004 layout and the Murchison base setup profile

 

Slow loading in Surveyor (TRS2004)

 

Until you download and install the Payware Content of the Murchison logging Route you will receive Missing Content errors when loading Murchison. However if you experience Slow loading in Surveyor when you load the Murchison Route then

a: double check step 4 above for duplicate content

b: download and check the following Download Directory listing for missing freeware content.

INSTRUCTIONS for using M-LOG (interactive logging) facilities

(available for TRS2004 only)

The following is a brief description only

If you have difficulties or are still unsure then please first try searching the TRAINZ forum by entering "m-log" into the search field

If you are unable to find an answer there then please try posting a specific questions on the forum

 

 

 

 
M-LOG INTERACTIVE INDUSTRY OPERATION

M-Log interactive logging operation was developed by Rich Blake (AKA Slugsmasher)

While Murchison Logging supports the M-Log interactive operation it is up to individual users to experiment and read TRAINZ documentation to fully understand their use and operation.

M-LOG ROLLING STOCK

Included in the downloads above are a number of M-Log wagons (both Std Gauge & Narrow Gauge) created by Rich Blake.

You can place these wagons on the track at the appropriate desired positions in TRAINZ SURVEYOR module.

Then, by right-clicking with the mouse on the individual wagons, you will be presented with choices of load types and whether the wagon is starting out loaded (to be unloaded at the Sorting Yard, Log dump or wharf) or starting out unloaded (ready to be loaded at the loading ramps, sorting yard or lumber yard)

SETTING UP THE M-LOG INDUSTRIES

Included in the downloads above are the various M-log industries

- A pond Log Dump - (model by Rich Blake - AKA SLUGSMASHER)

- Log skids (capable of being set up with multiple logs BUT only one log length at a time) - (model by Rich Blake - AKA SLUGSMASHER)

- A dry sorting yard for unloading multiple log sizes and then reloading for transport to the mill or at the Main-line junction (model by Rich Blake - AKA SLUGSMASHER)

- An animated steam driven  "Decker log loader" for loading multiple log sizes - (model by Pierre Parissucy - AKA pierreparis)

By right-clicking with the mouse on these various models in the TRAINZ SURVEYOR module you can set the sizes and quantities of logs to load/unload

SETTING UP THE BASIC INDUSTRIES

Murchison also uses other basic interactive industries for loading and unloading lumber and M-logs

Unloading the M-logs at the Pardoe Mill

At the Pardoe Mill you will find a section of track at the Mill unloading skid (the length of industry track is defined with a red Arrow at each end in the SURVEYOR module).

By right clicking on this track section you can adjust what size and quantity the mill will receive.

(in the "Murchison Base Setup" profile this has already been defined for you)

Cut Lumber

Also at both mills, on the Lumber-out side,  you will find lengths of track (defined with a red Arrow at each end). These track areas define the cut lumber loading quantities

Also at the MURCHISON wharf, just before the wharf starts,  you will find lengths of track (defined with a red Arrow at each end). These track areas define the cut lumber unloading quantities

By right clicking on this track section you can adjust what items/quantities will load/unload

(in the "Murchison Base Setup" profile this has already been defined for you)

USING THE M-LOG INDUSTRIES in the TRAINZ DRIVER MODULE

By stopping your loaded/unloaded wagons at the various industry positions TRAINZ will automatically load/unload the content that it is set up to load/unload

If a wagon does not unload or unload as expected then the most likely cause is that you have not set that wagon or industry up to handle the specific log/lumber type desired (these MUST be set up in the Surveyor module)

USING THE LOG DECKER

The M-Log LOG DECKER model was created by Pierre Parissucy who has written his own full operating instructions. Please read the following link
