Train Simulator - problem

[CP-FAN]

I have just loaded my microsoft train simulator onto my laptop and found when I tried a couple of trains

The scenery and interior of the carriages were both (like my eyesight - without glasses - hazy).

Also on a snow scene - no snow???

Any advice please - greatly appreciated.:(

I think I have now rectified the problems - I had encountered.:)

It's a great way to enjoy time out and of course a luv of trains.

I have included downloads from the CPR (via mapleleaf) and they are working great too.

Once I become more competent I will probably purchase add-ons.

Anyone have any ideas for MSTS add-ons?

Have you included add-ons yourself?

I would like to see such things as passengers waiting at the stations, people sounds and even radio communications between the cab and despatcher.

What do you think?

Radio communications like that would be really hard to make convincingly...especially since it would all have to be fairly unique to the run.
As for people, it's not that hard, I've seen it done.
One way to get an RTC - engineer communication is to run multiplayer - That is to say, use teamspeak to keep in touch with other trains on the same route as well as an RTC.

Well you your self cant talk to dispatch but if you get some Diesels West loco's they have radio chatter in em along with Dekosoft and SLI
