Hi all,

If you are looking for some serious model railway simulation and gaming experience EEP has greatly reduced their prices.

You can now pick up version 14 for less than 5 euro. Beware you do need a decent computer power (video graphic card) and it can be additive...

See: https://eepshopping.de/1001-eep-eep_program_series

Note: this software is not a track building program, it’s about building your own full scale railway, with buildings and scenery and then you can drive the trains realistically.

Best Regards
Lasse

Gu'day Lasse,

Thanks for the heads-up.

I've downloaded and installed Version 14 and it looks very interesting. As my German is not as good as it could be, a quick question - how do you change to English?

Thanks, David

Thanks, but I was meaning the actual program itself.

Normally I would expect to find language support in Program Settings (Programmeinstellungen) but doesn't appear to be present.

I have asked EEP support but no reply. Any ideas anyone??

Oh, sorry. An idea (although I don’t have the software): Maybe there is a tab „Einstellungen“ (= settings) and/or „Sprach-Einstellungen“ (= language settings) and/or “Sprache” (= language), where you can switch to Englisch (= English)?
Alternatively, there might be a “Suche” (= search/query) or “Suchfunktion” (= search/query) cell where you can enter one of the buzzwords mentioned above („Einstellungen“ etc.).
Good luck!

Thanks Lasse,

Imported the program into my Steam account but it looks as though I don't have the language option :-(

Will try contacting EEP again - hopefully they reply this time.

Happy Days, David

Hi David,

I had a look at my program. The opening menu is all in German but once I open a new layout (or existing) the program is in English.

You should also be able to choose the language setting during installation. Might be worthwhile trying to uninstall and install again to check you don't have the option to select language during installation?

Best Regards
Lasse

Hi Lasse,

To close the loop, if you purchase the program via Steam, then English language support is via the program "Properties" tab in Steam.

If you purchase the program directly from EEP, then a separate English language file is required and imported into the program.

I have received this file and now all works well :-)

Now to start enjoying....

Happy Days, David

Hi David,

That’s good news.

I do recommend downloading the manual. The software is quite sophisticated but fortunately they have made a pretty comprehensive manual.

EEP 14 manual.pdf (15,888kb) downloaded 20 time(s).

It is also possible to create your own track geometry, so you can create a fictive world based on your existing layout. If interested in that option see this video from Rudy.

Have fun!

Best Regards
Lasse
