OpenBVE is a license-free, open source, free of charge train driving simulator. This program includes detailed per-car simulation of the brake systems, friction, air resistance, toppling and more. In 3D cabs, the driving experience is augmented with forces that shake your simulated body upon acceleration and braking, as well as in curves. Besides that, OpenBVE features a 3D positional sound system best enjoyed with surround speakers, train exteriors and timetables for the current run. Finally, via the main menu, ro...
What's new in 1.13.0.5
Another rather too quick release... This contains a few more fixes for X objects and BVE5 routes, plus a critical fix for an issue introduced in 1.13.0.3 Significant Changes: - Fix: Infinite loop if an empty $Include file was encountered (introduced in 1.13.0.3) - Fix: Possible crash when attempting to transform objects which do not conform to 4 vertex counts. - Fix: Handle X files which specify invalid colours. - BVE5: Fix routefiles in which the first encountered route command is one which does not take a distance. - BVE5: The specified rail for repeaters should be case invariant.
