- The minimal donation amount for which you can download this pack, is 14 EUROS!!!
- The donations can be done through PayPal. (you can use it without credit card, you can top-up money to your PayPal account with simple bank transfers too)
- The processing of the donations are NOT fully automatic, so you may need to wait for a while (we try to keep that waiting time within ONE day, at afternoons and evening it will be probably within some hours, or minutes.
- After your donation get processed, and the minimal donation limit is met, you will get an automatic E-mail on that address that you have used for sending the donation, from us (hrqstudios<at>gmail.com), so check that mailbox sometimes, and check the spam folder too, just in case. The subject of the mail will contain the alphanumeric password, which will be used for the download.
- If you got the notification mail from us, that means your access to the download is activated.
- If you didn't get the instructions for long time after your donation, please check your email account spam folder, Maybe it was handled as spam.
- Follow the instructions in the mail, download the installer application, and use your E-mail address and password to access the download. (to run the install application you will need at least Java 8 to be installed OR You can also use the .NET installer application, for which you probably won't need to install anything, if you upgrade your windows. Just start the installer, and that's all.)
- If the password and email is correct but the installer still writes "access denied", try without copy-pasting these data (browsers usually copy invisible html characters, which will block the authentication), or first copy to notepad, then copy from there (it removes the invisible characters)
- Select available optional repaints if you want (you can select multiple repaints, and you can resize the window to make the list more visible), if you have the latest base package already, you may check "Only download the selected optional content" checkbox.
- Select your railworks.exe and wait for download and install. Don't close the program until it not writes "All downloads are done"
- Read the manual which will be installed in ts folder/manuals/EN/ES64U Taurus electric locomotive.pdf
- Play. (two scenarios included in pack on Hagen-Siegen route. "Free Roam: Taurus at Siegen" and "Taurus express" and two more on Munich-Augsburg, and Seebergbahn )
- For new scenario, you need to use the blueprint set filter (the "Blue box") as usual. Select HRQ then check Taurus. The locos name starting with ES64U.
