OpenBVE: NYCT A Express to Lefferts Blvd.

This has got to be the longest video I've ever uploaded. In this video I drive an R160 on the IND Eighth and Fulton Street lines from 207th St to Lefferts Blvd with an A express train. This is my first time doing a video in BVE, so if you have any advice or suggestions, feel free to post them in the comments.

I know some of you are probably wondering why I haven't finished my MSTS Keystone video. Well about a month ago my hard drive fried up and I've spent the past few weeks obtaining a new hard drive and I'm still waiting for a copy of Windows (as you can tell I'm running Ubuntu right now). Once I have Windows and MSTS completely reinstalled, I'll be sure to finish the video ASAP. Anyway I hope this video makes up for some of that long wait. Please enjoy.

fyi for future reference all active trains used by the NYC subway are available for BVE just check the rute you want to run on wikipedia to see the train that is used the A line does not use R160's only the E does on the 8th avenue line

@shsav2012 Thanks. I did notice that the R160s weren't the right equipment for the activity. Next time I'll be sure to get the right cars though.

@shsav2012 Thanks. I did notice the R160s weren't the right cars, but didn't feel like getting the right ones at the time. Next time I'll be sure to have them.

You should use FRAPS then edit the video's in a movie editor.

@AlgonquinRider810 I'm running Ubuntu Linux at the moment. Fraps isn't compatible with it. Actually though I kind of liked the screen recorder that I used for this because I was able to record one continuous video as opposed to Fraps which only allows 30 second clips (unless you buy the full version which I'm not doing).

Just a veteran tip you messed up every express run.You should be flying in 42nd,14th,Nostrand,Utica,Eucli­d stations at at least(minimum) 40 MPH except 42nd,14th and Nostrand you should easily haul in about 43-46 mph(as T/O's usually do).Also not necessary braking into a station under 40.

Forgot to dump the train...

The next stop after Chambers Street is Fulton Street not Broadway/Nassau Street. That's a mistake.

Watched the entire vid bro! Awesome. I love how the station names and other info pop up in the upper right hand corner. Great Job! How do I get the BVE program?

[durece100]

are you sure it's full openbve?

@8AVEXPRESS129 I think we all wish the lines would use a whole variety of equipment, but I suppose certain cars work better on certain lines.
