Should Object Converter and Mirror be counted as needing translation, as there is little if any text involved?

Wouldn't say so - they're just drag and drop things, no text at all.

Contents 1 Developer hints and other things... 2 WINE 3 Routes 4 @Pacific Coast Highway 5 External links 6 Source tag 7 MSFT Vista

[edit] Developer hints and other things...

i) Anyone interested in adding some Developer hints in a Wikibook on BVE?

ii) BVE files are essentialy text... So any want to developa route in a Wiki fashion?

[edit] WINE

I would be very interested in someone describing using BVE via WINE.

[edit] Routes

In the external links area, I added some notable route websites, Midlandbve has added his route, which I don't beleive is notable until it is released. Tubechallenger 15:32, 30 March 2006 (UTC)

You could have said RSR-UK wasn't notable prior to August 2001 (release of WJ-MKC). I assure you it was TC ;-).

I guess, but I'm talking about current times Tubechallenger 17:54, 3 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] @Pacific Coast Highway

What's wrong with having http://www.trainsimcentral.co.uk as an external link? They have routes of London Underground and I've tried them out b4, they're not spam!! I hope you replace that link. Herenthere 21:19, 25 December 2006 (UTC)

This is the main problem. If we add Trainsimcentral, then other sites would want a mention. At the most, there should be a link to the program itself and a larger database that covers an international area, not just the UK. Pacific Coast Highway ^{{Ho! Ho!

[edit] External links

Before adding any site into the external links, please make sure it follows Wikipedia:External links. And when adding a site, please don't shuffle your addition to the top of the list. Wikipedia is not an advertising service and dubious additions of that type will be swiftly removed. Pacific Coast Highway ^{{talk • contribs}} 01:36, 31 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Source tag

Should we remove the references/source tag since any information in this article is from a computer program/game, and since most of the info is from personal experience, the tag doesn't really fit...? --Herenthere 22:23, 8 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] MSFT Vista

LondonBVE said that BVE doesn't work on Vista. Is that true?!?! Anyone tried it yet? In that case, I might not bother to upgrade... Herenthere (Talk) 20:45, 24 March 2007 (UTC)
