(URL) it's RCX'ed That was slightly more difficult than I thought It isn't perfect--still needs a little tweaking, but it's a great start The monorail switch mechanism needs to be improved but the rest is pretty good So there you are Dave K (16 years ago, 6-Nov-08, to lugnet.org.ca.obb, lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto, lugnet.space)

(...) If Matt or someonelse rewrite the code (open sourced or not) I would suggest to use a framework that is available to most of the OS like Qt or GTk. That way it would be really easy to port to all OS not just the most known. Wine is working (...) (16 years ago, 6-Nov-08, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.general)

(...) Given the reports that its using MFC, it would be easier to rewrite a new version from scratch than to port the existing one. (16 years ago, 6-Nov-08, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.general)

(...) For me, the great think about Track Designer is that it runs just fine under the Wine Windows emulator. I've used it that way under my X86-64 Linux machine for several layouts, including working on NALUG layouts for train shows. I've never (...)

(...) Open the source code! My guess is that's the best thing which can be done. Set up a open source project, and even if nobody contributes immediately, maybe a day... and of course you can still develop it (and the source code will never be lost (...)

Its great that you've found this gem even if it was 5 years later. I still have a (...) (16 years ago, 5-Nov-08, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.general)

I have been able to compile it but only with an older version of Visual C++ (version 4.0). Plus I have (...) (16 years ago, 5-Nov-08, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.general)

(...) That is great news, Track Designer is very useful, I use it all the time when I do a LEGO train show as I have a different layout for each show. It still works very well but it would be nice to see a few enhancements. David (16 years ago, 5-Nov-08, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.general)

I really like it. The five engine/wing is blended nicely into the design. I also like the fact that the wings aren't all the same, which gives a bit of assymetry to the symmetric design. :) (16 years ago, 5-Nov-08, to lugnet.space, FTX)

I'm no space fan, but you've captured a lot of what I associate with the genre in one nice slick MOC. Good work! I would love to see a slightly longer version, but the scale of the various wing components and the angles of their alignment is (...) (16 years ago, 5-Nov-08, to lugnet.space, FTX)
