Hi!

Could anybody help me why I get this error message every time I try installing the patch?

Checking for available disk space for patching.
Insufficient disk space available for patching. Please ensure that at least 4096MB are available.
Patching aborted.

On every partition I have more than 10 GB free space available so I don't understand what is the problem. I also installed the game to a newly formatted partition (20GB) and then tried to patch it but it doesn't work!

Check in the 2009 part of the forums, I seen a couple threads on this Ish!

This was a known issue, something to do with the patcher I believe.....

Lorin

Lorin pointed out a thread at Auran how to fix this ... A poster named Kevin gave these instruction. I rather elaborated in more detailed ... read below:

Sometimes I forget that the C likes to keep things in it's temp folder, etc...

I did it this way:

1. control panel
2. click on system
3. Advance tab
4. environment Variables
5. Look at User Variables for Ish (for my case)
6. I created a folder call temp on my other HD
7. Select the temp folder from the list and click Edit.
8. Type in the G:\Temp (this is my example I used)

close everything and it's done ... unpack will unpack...

normally this happens when the C is almost fulled like Kevin said -- need 4g or more.

Thanks to Kevin, and ...

Special thanks to Lorin for pointing the thread above out to me!!

Good to hear Ishie that you go it running!
I will remember that when I get mine (I ordered it Dec 24 so it should be here soon I hope )

Hi All,
I've just spent a few hours experimenting with my Graphic Card settings, to give me the best results for running 09.
I thought I would list them here as a guide. Please remember, this is only a guide as machines and GC's vary widely.
As a note I'm using an ATI Radeon Sapphire running at 256 MB's, but the settings may suit other cards and machines.
Also please remember, this is to get the best out of 09, and may need other settings for other programs you have on your machine.

• Standard Settings .................Custom.
  
• Anti Aliasing..........................4X
  
• Adoptive Anti Aliasing.............Performance
  
• Anisotropic Filtering................8X
  
• Catalyst AI.............................Advanced.
  
• Mini-Map detail.......................Quality
  
• Direct 3D Setting....................Support DXT Texture Formats.
  
• Open GL Setting.....................Triple Buffering.
  
• Video Presets..........................Standard
  
• De-interlacing Mode..................Adaptive
  
• ATI Overdrive...........................Set (NOTE::: To be used with caution, if in doubt leave this and the following settings at default).
  
• Graphic Processor Status::::: Requested 587 MHz, Given 587 MHz. running at 64 degrees centigrade.
  
• Graphic Memory Status:::::::: Requested 693 MHz, Given 693 MHz
  

As stated, this seems to give me the best results in 09, if I come across any problem I will post any changes here.
I must emphasise, these figures are meant for a guide only: As you all know, what is right for one machine could be completely different for another, so please use with caution and always make a note of your original settings so you can revert if needed to. Using default settings with any Graphic Card rarely gives the best result.
Cheers
Pete.

I just got TS2009!!

Intalled, updated, no content improted yet.
I'll give you my thoughts of it as soon as I look it over.

Cheers,
Adam

I live!!

Here is the story:

Install and update went fine. Opened 2009 and looking into a route, lot better graphics for the most part. What happened next proves it. My video card has been slowly failing and I hit a high poly area and it gave out (sigh).

I restarted my computer and discovered that I could no long connect to the internet for some stupid reason. Just 15 minutes ago I restarted the computer (like I did 50 times before) and poof it worked! For about 17 hours I had no internet on my computer.

During all that I explored TS2009 some more. Track looks great so does the station. Tree...not so much. Locomotive looks cool, but on the realistic/prototypical spectrum I'm not satisfied.

Now for some general questions:

Where is the blasted 10-5 meter grid change thingy?
How do I import my old content? (TRS2006)
Do I need to know any thing really important before my adventure truely begins?

Cheers,
Adam

You are one of the lucky ones ...

Play with it some more and let us know!!!

As for the internet that was your ISP, most likely!!

Ishie

Hey Ishie,

Been installing content since 6 PM EST. It's now 9:45 PM EST approx and not even halfway done. I'm dragging and dropping folders 100+ at a time into CM2, seems very stable so far.

Commiting is a little slower than TRS2006 but I dont mind.
It's the slow but safest way to do it. Until I am confident with CM2 then I will start using normal functions.

Just started a 3,000+ transfer from my local folder to CM2 just now. 1,500 takes about an hour or more. With nearly 19+ Gigs of content it will take a long time, and with school tomarrow I will spending the rest of my evening tomarrow transfer files.

Cheers,
Adam

Why don't you just transfer a huge bulk and then go to sleep ... I didthat once ... you wake and it's done!!

Ishie

Hey All,

What are your best setting for TRS09 ...?

Hi Ishie,
Check out my post on the previous page of this thread, you may have missed it as other newer entries were made; starting a new page., its the best graphic card settings I have found. If its 09 settings, I'm afraid I'm still experimenting. Although what I have now seems OK, I hope to do better. I'll get back to you when I'm finished.
Cheers
Pete.

Hi everyone!
Sorry for the long absene, might be longer too, but I will get to that.

For the past week we have been fighting with HughesNet. The contract says we are gaurenteed 1 meg of speed, we never get that. In fact we are slower than dailup. My father is considering just getting rid of internet completly.

I have no time for TS2009 latley...but I am still bored out of my mind and told to stay away from the computer. So I just stole my moms while dad is gone to work. I might b gone a long time, but will hopefully be back soon.

I will update you on TS2009 as soon as I get back, and get a new graphics card, see you all sometime later!

Cheers,
Adam

Hope things work out for the best Adam!!!
