User Reviews

  • As free program, it is amazing. There a few quirks but that is the same for ay program. I find it very informative for planning my model railways. Support is great as well. A very good IO group and a support on here.
  • The Mac version the beta and 5.30 won't open for me in TAhoe 26 because it can't verify no malware.
  • .SH install script does not exit the "readme" section. User never gets a prompt asking to continue/cancel the install. Source can be built but SHOULD run in a portable way by default if an installer wasn't used. Flatpak and AppImage versions should be considered to avoid the problems mentioned above.

    See https://sourceforge.net/p/xtrkcad-fork/bugs/487/ Some system replace 'more' with 'less' which differ on what happens at the end of file. 'more' just continues with the script. 'less' prints "(END)" and waits for you to type 'q' The linux install page http://xtrkcad-fork.sourceforge.net/Wikka/LinuxInstall expains this broken behavior Thanks for the reference to Flatpak and AppImage
  • Been using it a long time, the latest enhancements make it really good. I mostly model Lionel Fast Track and having the library of track and other Lionel accessories is really nice. Huge thanks to all who contribute!
  • Superb
