Android 4.3 Sound Bug

We've been experiencing some issues with sounds stopping on some 4.3 systems. These are caused by a bug in the Android system:

It will be fixed in next system update. I'm trying to find a workaround to make it work before that.

For now, here are things you can do if you are affected:

  • Use Android version 4.2.2 for now.
  • Upgrade to latest custom 4.3 (quite complicated).
  • Wait for us to find a workaround.
  • Wait for google to release official update (should be soon, you can check for it in Settings->About device->System update menu)

Version 1.5 is now available for download on the Google Play store! Keep your eye peeled for all the new features, including (but not limited to) double tracks, bigger stations, new scenery an a shiny new options menu so you can tweak the random track generator. Enjoy!

Beta Testing and New Screenshots!

Our apologies that things have taken longer than anticipated to get a new release out. We've been so busy with our other lives, that we've only been able to work on Train Driver and the little spare time we can scrounge. But, we do have some new content in the beta testing version! just sign up here: https://plus.google.com/u/0/communities/118303589166171366782 and follow the instructions. We appreciate any and all feedback, so we can make Train Driver even better. Yes, we know the Polish conductor is awful! We'll get there (even if I have to record myself *shudder*). We also need a new horn. the current one sounds terrible!

Anyway, here's a taste of what's going to come in version 1.2
