I'm looking at re-doing this one at some point - are there any particular questions you'd like to see answered in it, or anything else you would like to see better explained?
MattPlaysTV perhaps, in day light, we can see some services on slow/fast lines 2 in each direction, multiple block sections for each line. With a train crossing from fast to slow and vice versa.
A scenario for U-Bahn Frankfurt II by JT oder S-Bahn Rhein Main would be very cool. Maybe with a complex time table and lots of AI or a start from depots and cab changes.
@Damon Howles If TS won't recognize your joystick, use a program called joy2key. It's free, and you can set it up so each button and stick movement corresponds with a keyboard key. You can set it up however you like, too.
I've run into a problem where I can't use any Trains not included with the route (for Example London overground Class 378 on south London network) it's really bothering me and I wish you could answer me a quickly as possible.
@1:01:35 you asked if what you were doing is useful, well 2 years on and the answer from me is YES. I watched a bit, paused and worked on my own scenario, first ever, following your instruction, tested it, then came and watched more, repeating this process until the end. Thank you so much, it was very helpful. Can't wait to continue with the follow on video.
I tried watching someone else do a scenario building tutorial on CZcams and I had no idea what was going on. When I watched this, however, I instantly understood it. You are a natural genius.
I am a long time MSTS user just now dabbling in TS. I want to thank you for this video it has really helped me. I still have a ways to go but this has been very helpful to me in getting there.
Hi Matt, Thank you for this video and your equally helpful one on creating Quickdrives. These have been invaluable in getting me going on scenario creation. Your step by step approach has enabled me to get started as I was getting well stuck without any detailed manual. By the way, I also found your video on driving steam engines good as well, it has enabled me to keep my boiler pressure up on the Settle Carlisle! Scenario creation brings out the magic of Train Simulator. Thanks very much Steve Holman
I'm a bit late to the party, but very useful info, explaining things in an easy to pick up manner and making what looks a daunting task to even do a basic scenario, seem a lot less daunting. By following your steps, even a newbie to the editor, could produce a small scenario with a few stops and a few AI travelling in the opposite direction in about 5 - 10 minutes. An update video for TS2020 or 2021, would be great.
While I have created few scenarios, I didn't know how to change track rules for both direction running. So that was helpful! Now onwards to next tutorials that arw going to have some new stuff for me. (My current skills are just around this video)
It is an older video and you pobably don`t read the comments on this any more, but anyway..... You asked : Is this usefull? Yes it is!!! Please continue to create tutorials. Thank you for taking the time. Edgar
This is brilliant - thank you - my only issue is that I cannot get passengers to load at stations - I even copied a paid for scenario from a paid for route and it still wont work - Everything in my timetable is exactly how you have it here - the econsequence is, on arrival at my first station, although the doors will open there is no passenger loading graphic near to the ETA and clock box. So the station remains next in that box despite the fact I am already there!! Any help appreciated - keep up the good work.
+Matt Peddlesden ok matt point taken but in your video I didn't get the publishing part as it was not on your stream also when I put up a train to make a scenario there is none of those blue sound markers there does that matter and also I keep crashing while attempting to make one
Click the blue box with a small orange arrow on the middle fly-out, go to the right hand side of the screen and a new fly-out has appeared. Now find and click the routes you want compatibility for
Got my ts2015 out of cobwebs and decided to have a go at my own scenario found this very helpful ty. What software are you using to make the video with camera view of yourself? at 32:36 you lose sound in your video till 32.43
Very useful Matt thank you. I wonder if you have or can in the future detail what the Timetabled scenario is meant to be for as why would I need to use this rather than standard or career based ones. Would this be the case that timetabled trains would run better? Many thanks and keep up all the great work you do.
Thank you for creating this video, Matt! Was really struggling with it until I watched this video. I had a quick question about scenery. I'm making a career scenario right now which involves driving the train to an outdoor party/cookout type event, specifically for the 4th of July coming up. I've already got scenery like picnic tables, a few animated people, vehicles, an outhouse, and a bonfire. Is there any other scenery, like a barbecue grill, tents, picnic blankets, and maybe even fireworks that are available for download anywhere? Also, is there a way I can import a piece of music into the game as a sound and place it as an object on the route?
Hi matt, i know that this an old video, was just watching it again and was wondering if you could maybe do a tutorial on making trainspotting scenarios that end automatically, only I want to make one myself on the London to Brighton route, thanks :)
i have made some of my own scenarios but I want to try and make one where you connect to other trains any chance of showing a video of how that's done if you get time
Hello! I'm having issues and I'm wondering if anyone can assist me . I'm trying to make a scenario including the Class 800 enhancement pack. Whenever I include an AI train and save then reload the scenario, it dissappears without a trace. I've tried it countless times to no avail. Its very annoying as the standard trains are out of date.
Hello Matt. Thanks for the great tutorial. It will help me a lot. I have to ask something if you can help me. I create a standard scenario and Ι put an AI train comes from the opposite side in my track. My signal was red until the AI train pass the junction and get in in my near track. So, after that, the juction not changed for my path and stuck in the AI path. My signal still is red and the signal for the near track comes green. Is there any way, TS auto change (not with G) the junction to my path after this situation?
Hey Matt! Cheers for the vid. As soon as i can afford a PC and train sim. I'll be all over this. But Matt, how might I make AI trains couple or make it possible to couple to AI trains to continue with a longer train along a line?
On the West Somerset railway when you show at 19:23 about editing your player consist to work but the box to tick the player consist button is dark grey and I am unable to tick it why?
Is it possible to "copy and paste" the activity of AI trains, for example the two different trains departing at different time, but with the same route ? If I want to create a 10 stops activity for 5 trains, should I do the same process 5 times ?
Hi Matt, using TS2018, PC i7 processor, 64GB RAM 2xGT1080 Graphics cards Windows 10 (64-bit). Have followed your scenario creation tutorial and copied your London Faversham scenario closely. Everything worked fine until changing career scenario parameters. Loaded successfully at station, but not received score for doing so. Also when I changed the weather parameter I ended up with broad daylight sky, although all lights etc were on. Any ideas why?
Question if a bunch of scenario's on a route somehow got deleted can you get them back onto train simulator even if you found them in your contact section of steam on your my computer file. If this is possible can someone tell me how.
Adding messages won't work for me. I do exactly what you do in the video but still now message pops up when I load up the scenario. (I know this video is three years old, but I don't think much has changed with the scenario creation process since then.)
I need help with creating a career scenario. I was setting up for the player to collect the passenger equipment and suddenly I get an error message saying "Unable to get around Blockage" or something like that. Then when I tested the scenario I get an error saying it was unable to load Track.bin. When I went back to the scenario editor all the track was gone. What's going on?
I tried creating an passenger scenario on the Pacific Surfliner. When I played it and made all the stops. At end I received a fail stating I didn't pick up passengers at all the stations only 3 of the 8 stations. Any ideas why this happened?
Hi Matt .Been watching with interest , just subscribed to your channel:one things puzzling me, although I have been copying your tutorial, i.e doing the same one as you, everything's fine until trying to change weather and career parameters. The weather stays as it is and I do not earn points when unloading/loading at the first station . Any ideas, I have an i7 processor with 64 gb ram and GT1080 graphics cardsx2.
How do you get the aerial view in the editor. I seem to be able to roll in and out, but can't get the high views. I enter at ground level, but do not know how to 'get airborne'
HI! JUST WANT TO ASK why when i play the new map is no passenger,of course cant open the train door too, cant complete some pick up passenger mission,how can i do now?
Matt - It is 44353 and I am having trouble making my first ever workshop scenario, I did all the things you said when I tested it the first time like you said, a switch was messed up, and I couldn't sound my bell or horn. Could you help me. Thankyou!
I know this is late, but is it possible to make a scenario where you dont drive but are in a passenger view? And the the train drives and completes its tasks
Hmm - does it still show up in the build menu and does it play ok when you run it directly from the scenario tool? the most common mistake I make regularly is that I forget to mark the player train as the player train - so it thinks they are all AI, which will prevent it from showing up on the menu.
I suppose it is because he placed his train a little further down on the platform, usually the station 'start markers' are just near the platform end, that might be the reason the game shows 10 sec delay, as if to simulate that the train has to reach the 'starting marker' on the platform.
I'm looking at re-doing this one at some point - are there any particular questions you'd like to see answered in it, or anything else you would like to see better explained?
MattPlaysTV perhaps, in day light, we can see some services on slow/fast lines 2 in each direction, multiple block sections for each line. With a train crossing from fast to slow and vice versa.
Adding messages doesn't work for me, so maybe it has changed since TS2014? (See my comment for more information on my situation.)

This tutorial is great. It is the one that I come back to whenever I have a problem, and as a refresher course from time to time.

+shaw bertie Now we need you to show us how to make routes!
I am a long time MSTS user just now dabbling in TS. I want to thank you for this video it has really helped me. I still have a ways to go but this has been very helpful to me in getting there.
If only I could understand the editor like I could in the Kuju days. I’d never EVER get bored

Finally! Someone who can talk and teach and does not assume too much!! TY!
Thanks Jeff! Glad the tutorials are useful ;)
Yes, I'm new to building scenarios in TS and I found this both very interesting and very useful, learnt loads - thanks Matt!

Cheers matt i was enthralled watching this. i got right into how you work scenarios out
Matt, these tuturial creation guide live Twitch feeds are are great edition to your usual scenario playthroughs.
Excellent tutorial. I am brand new to TS2015 but have already used some tips in this video.
I have just made my first Scenario watching your video Thanks
A great tutorial, thanks Matt
Nice one - thanks for the info on your blog tonight - found that and these other videos. Cheers
Jim (PipeSgt)
It is an older video and you pobably don`t read the comments on this any more, but anyway..... You asked : Is this usefull? Yes it is!!! Please continue to create tutorials.
Thank you for taking the time.

thanks for this matt, trying to make a scenario on the north London line with AI trains. top man
This is brilliant - thank you - my only issue is that I cannot get passengers to load at stations - I even copied a paid for scenario from a paid for route and it still wont work - Everything in my timetable is exactly how you have it here - the econsequence is, on arrival at my first station, although the doors will open there is no passenger loading graphic near to the ETA and clock box.

Thankyou so much for all the information, I'm making some great scenarios thanks to you :)
nice guide- thanks for doing this Matt.
This my second time to watch this tutorial. Please continue to make more.
Matt you have always created very awesome content and fyi you r my inspiration for TS awesome vid and great explanations
WTF, my game freezes up completely when I try to write the final message at the end of my scenario... :(
Thank you Sir for making this :) Bought a Train and found no Scenarios for it, so went ahead and started making them myself (Stadler Flirt3)
it would be nice to see some more of these videos so that people like me who don't know how to create a scenario can learn from the vids thx
+Matt Peddlesden ok matt point taken but in your video I didn't get the publishing part as it was not on your stream also when I put up a train to make a scenario there is none of those blue sound markers there does that matter and also I keep crashing while attempting to make one
I can't get locomotives from any other routes how do I?
Click the blue box with a small orange arrow on the middle fly-out, go to the right hand side of the screen and a new fly-out has appeared. Now find and click the routes you want compatibility for
Thanks Matt. I made my first scenario thanks to your tutorial. :-)
I didn't get any feedback on it sadly, but I've made ten now and am currently working on my eleventh one. :)
When I have been doing it I set it to go to pick up pasengers at platform 2 but it takes it to platform 1
How do you get trains from other routes in this
I like this video because I now know how to create scenarios
Is there a way you could, for example, change the player train from a Class 395 to a 375 without deleting the instructions and starting from scratch?
Excellent tutorial. I wish you had left it in the daytime though as I couldn't see much of anything out your windscreen.
its alright matt was doing it on a free roam scenario
Got my ts2015 out of cobwebs and decided to have a go at my own scenario found this very helpful ty. What software are you using to make the video with camera view of yourself? at 32:36 you lose sound in your video till 32.43
I am using the class 221 with split ends going different ways. How would I do the destinations?
Very useful Matt thank you. I wonder if you have or can in the future detail what the Timetabled scenario is meant to be for as why would I need to use this rather than standard or career based ones. Would this be the case that timetabled trains would run better? Many thanks and keep up all the great work you do.

Hey! Do you know how to get a "Go Via...' instruction for a scenario?
Click on the 👉 button where you will find a big pop-up bar. Look for the 0mph in a text space, and change it to the speed limit you want.
19:30 i can't click this button, its disabled

Very very very useful. Thank you kindly. *****
***** No problem. Looking forward for the tutorials to come. They are very useful.
Plz help me out is there a repeat button so tfain will do that over and over ?

JUST WANT TO ASK why when i play the new map is no passenger,of course cant open the train door too, cant complete some pick up passenger mission,how can i do now?
CRH380A LOCO AT ALL CHINA MAP HAS THIS PROBLEM
I made a scenario at the start station the doors open fine but wont open at the other stations is there a reason for this
When I pass a green signal it stays as green. How do i get it to change to red??? Do I need an AI train behind me?
Before the pink kitty ears!!

Hey Matt I can't save any changes to a new scenario after I save it for the first time? How can I fix this?
Is there a way i can get the A.I. trains starting rolling at the beginning of the scenario?
I know this is late, but is it possible to make a scenario where you dont drive but are in a passenger view? And the the train drives and completes its tasks
+Matt Peddlesden
hmmm thanks:)

Matt Peddlesden it is now its called railfan and it's only in the albula line
Created a new scenario for standard play but it doesn't show up in the route list. What could be missing for it not to show up.
Hmm - does it still show up in the build menu and does it play ok when you run it directly from the scenario tool? the most common mistake I make regularly is that I forget to mark the player train as the player train - so it thinks they are all AI, which will prevent it from showing up on the menu.
MattPlaysTV That's what it was. Duh . Can't believe I missed that. Thx
Well I fixed that, and then I lost all my consists. They just disappeared as soon as I made Railfan a Player Train. Any idea's?
nice vid i may try to do creat a scenario
how do I use any train on any route?
amazing!
ok can you explain what the different signal system are im not sure what that is or can anyone help plz?
+zippa .way im mainly working on the american routs for now
Hey Matt how I get all my locomotives and cars in the list
please start from scatch when starting confuse how you got to screen shown in this video
At 15:37 when you put Rochester up so the arrival time at Rochester is 12:00:10 but the scenario starts at 12:00:00. Why that 10 seconds delay?
I suppose it is because he placed his train a little further down on the platform, usually the station 'start markers' are just near the platform end, that might be the reason the game shows 10 sec delay, as if to simulate that the train has to reach the 'starting marker' on the platform.
Everything was fine till I tried changing the direction of the track, Really a new one on me.
matt what tools do you need to create scenarios
what is the GP38Test?
Mine keeps saying failed to load
Wat do I do pls answer
it wont let me click player consist.
show your train collection
OMG LOVE YOU
Wait how u use a delete key
Can you make a tutorial about creating your own route?
***** thx man!!
Name game love Channel 💙💙💙
No nothing has been ticked
How do you fix the start time?
thx for the help :D
